habit

I'm an 40 yr old, who has been watching porn since I was a teenager. When I first watched a DVD I bought from a sex shop in London, I never knew that it would change my life as an adult forever. I recently ended an eight-year relationship with the love of my life. I struggled to feel anything...

Hi :) im really stuck in a cycle of shame, which fuels my bad habit because i'm very into humiliation...im 24 and gay. I like tv, movies, music, nature, politics, travelling, arts, fashion, design, and cooking! I am also trying to get into yoga and working out. Some of my favourtie artists are...

In the last trys i did the mistake not analyzing my habit which lead to fapping especially the cue (read atomic habits or power of habit and have made now for every stage (freetime-lust-watching-fab-regret) a step to take me again into the right direction. My fapping timeline: Everytime i am...

I’ve found it so difficult to break the chains of this bad habit. It’s something which has been part of my life since I was about 10 or 11, and attempts are never really sustained. The desire to fap can become overwhelming and I don’t always feel that the willpower isn’t strong enough to ride...

Hi All, I am quite new to NoFap but trying to quit already for several month. I think I have quite a good progress here by going from faping every day several times in several places, to fapping like once a week and I am on my first nofap streak now after I discovered the community which lasts...

I lisened to a guy on instagram talking about nofap He had a few good points that stuck with me just want to share, Things like being told if you fap again you have lost all the benefits, i think its unhealthy to be told that or think because its like telling an overweight guy, go the gym, go...

Hi everyone! I will share with you my struggles with adult films, will try to give a lot of tips and maybe you will find something useful for yourself. I want to just say that English is not my first language so i am sorry if there are some mistakes. Ok, so i will begin that every person...

To participate in this challenge you can make a list of your current good habits along with the bad habits that you broke, starting with PMO. Post the list, challenging yourself to start a new habit or break a bad one for 30 days. When you complete the month, post your current habits again...

Heyya, I am new here! And currently ,I am Dopamine/PMO addict, and only in the age of 16 (started when i was 14) My addiction has been annoying me for a while now, i can't focus on anything i do, without thinking of sex,porn and anything related to that. Lately i was researching a lot about how...

Hi community! This is a side journal to the main one, because i want to share my progress in the attempt to build a new habit (old habit actually), which is for me a great challenge at the moment. Let me explain... On my way to self improvement I found different activities and habits which can...

Which habit would you like to imbibe

Day 127 So I was in the middle of an erotic dream and I felt myself at the cusp of O and I stopped it! I friggin' stopped it! I felt the control in the muscle and I prevented myself from spontaneous O in my sleep. I woke myself up just in the knick of time. The dream was highly charged and...

What are your replacement habits from watching P*rn and M/O? I know a lot of people say things like reading, working out, journaling, but realistically PMO is gives the sensation of a heavy drug and simple activities like reading are not enough to ease that pain. Have any of you taken on equally...

The purpose of this challenge is to foster positivity, personal development, camaraderie (virtual or in person), and mutual encouragement. All are welcome! The one and only expectation is to post what your goal is for this month of February - whether it is to learn a new language, share a kind...

Hello everyone! I hope you have a beautiful streak right now and that everything goes well on your way to recuperation. I really need to ask you, how did you quit and how do you think it is the proper way to quit this addiction? Gradually, like masturbating once at every 3-4 days, then once at...

About 2.5 months ago, I had to split things on with my fiance (which is now my former) because she had some not-good things going on. Bless the situation. That was hard for me emotionally and I relapsed hard on alcohol and porn one week after our split. I watched porn for like 3 hours straight...

Let me start by saying that I definitely want to stop watching porn, otherwise I wouldn't be here. The only times I consume porn are at night before I go to sleep and/or right after I wake up. Porn isn't something I think about every moment of the day or anything like that, it's just something...

t has been 90 days since I watched a porn video, masturbated or had an orgasm. It was not easy and I could have done better. One day I read some fictional incest stories. After 45 days went by my erectile dysfunction had not improved a bit so I started using a vacuum pump about every other day...

Hey guys. I want to talk about something that I've been conflicted about for a long time struggling with porn. When it comes to PMOing, I always blamed it for any insecurities/ and flaws I had. However, as I continue grow as a person naturally, I see that it's not always to blame. The reason I...

Despite the title of this thread, today was actually quite a shitty day. I woke up feeling tired, got back to sleep. Woke up again one hour late, but I was sleepy. Still in bed, not even able to get out of it, I relapsed. Finally stood up, didn't pray or meditate, prepared breakfast, but waking...

This is my time where I whack off for the first time in the day. I took up NoFap from yesterday onwards. The urge is killing me, I am in need of dire relief. Its so tough to control the urge, if not the thoughts I am having. The habit of this is so routine that I get these images in my mind...

How many of you have been disciplined with your habits everyday along your nofap journey and yet you keep relapsing? The same thing happened to me. (Check my post about how not all streak are equal.) But what I learned for that was having a life was way more powerful then having habits. So...

what are the step behind the addiction ?? if you now in which step you are now , this will help you understand more about your addiction and as result , improvement 1- first step : looking the cycle start from looking to women if you did not look to women , you will block the cycle and hence ...

If you think masturbation and pornography are right, tell me an animal that uses its own hands to have sex. Animals are more successful in sex life than those who do not practice NoFap. For me NoFap is not a habit, style and life, it should be normal in people's lives, as it is for all other...

Hello!! I just wanted to know what are some of your good and bad habits, this is because I think that our habits either create a path to redemption or simply destroy the path. For example some good habits that I have are: - Reading a book before sleep - Putting down all of my devices after 11...

Hey guys, I'm new here. It's my first ever post. I've been reading Nofap forums since two weeks and I really wanted to get answers to this. I'm a porn addict since a long time. I started with anal, BDSM around 13 (now 22) and at that time, I would see me as the dominant in those clips...

If you are reading this article you probably have a higher streak, rebooted or maybe even relapsed. Whatever your state maybe just read alone because this is important. Let me start about my self a bit I know I haven’t really uploaded any forums for so long I am a 19 year old kid who quit porn...

Original link below. Overthinking things is addictive. It took me a long time to understand this. Some people get it right away. I was not one of those people. In high school, I was very insecure around girls. My friends would tell me I was okay looking and with a great body. But it didn't...

Guys I'm not that new but every time I started I fail and fail again , I just want copy the success habits for my life and start better than other times

Hey I'm here making good progress in understanding my triggers and shortcomings but I'm having a hard time finding what to fill my time with. After many attempts at quitting PM I realized that my huge consumption of video games literally every day was a long term dopamine high and escapism for...

Friends, I am a Nofap user since 1 year.I am very much benefitted by this platform. I am a student.I am preparing for some exams to get job but I never studied sincerely. I always studied like for sometime and let it go. Never I made study a habit. Inspiring by this platform I decided to make a...

I guess most of you have gone through this power of habit thing the first it urge starts with trigger which rushes the dopamine level for the best pleasure of fewest seconds accompanied by our automated routine. In this process our routine is main thing that needs to be changed irrespective of...

I've read in many sources that to become successful on nofap, we shouldn't focus on nofap, but on the new good habit we trying to build with the energy of abstaining pmo, is this true? If it's true, whats the habit you are trying to build or projects you guys are trying to do to channel the...

Hi everyone my thread here today is about meditating on Chakras while rebooting. (Short story) I have been meditating ever since 2017. After a while I got to know about Chakras and meditated more on them. 2017-2018 I was in a long lasting relationship that lasted a year and a half. After that...

Hi guys, since I stopped eating refined sugar and dairy products my akne droped to 0. (I am doing this since March 1st) A nice byproduct is an overall healthier eating pattern. You should try it as well. Its sometimes hard when I see sweets at the grocery store or in the bakery, but then I...

I understand in a habit there is a cue--> Routine --> Reward and Repeat <--- This week I relapsed a couple of times even tho I gave up Instagram from my life Here is why I think I relapsed. 1. I sit on the couch in the living room and stay up mean while everyone goes to bed and no one is...

Guys I am struggling hard to quit this terrible porn habit. Admittedly, I have tried to quit many many times this past 6 months, yet I always seem to end up relapsing in a moment of passion or justifying going back somehow in my head. (only to massively regret immediately after release) I feel...

So i'm still trying to break the habit, and i have relapsed multiple times. But i feel like i am having more trouble with guilt and shame rather than trying to not relapse. Just thinking about fapping to all that disgusting porn that i did makes me horrified. Every time i feel somewhat good, i...

Hello everyone..... I am from India.....these days i've been addicted to porn soo much that. it has changed my lifestyle drastically.......i've started masturbating a lot.....like 2-3 times a day.....i've started to objectify women around me......the one's i love........my behaviour's changing...

Hey ya'll, Fortunately I don't peak my head into windows or anything that risky. But my past behavior has made me realize I have these voyeuristic tendencies. There's a woman across the street who leaves her window open, and I can't quite see anything too well, but I'm always looking out trying...

Hare Krushna! Firstly, a big thanks to the NoFap community (founders, moderators who help run the show, friends and well wishers who helped me, and EVERYONE who is here - because every additional person trying to improve himself/herself - adds to my own motivation and inspiration a little bit)...

Hey guy's. I just started again even though my counter is off I have three day's in me. I'm here to admit that I may be an addict. I have the most trouble when I am trying to sleep and mind just keeps on racing constantly. The main problem is that Masturbating helps me sleep.. I have had bad...

Hi everyone, Finally i make my first thread. This thread should've been posted about 4 days ago, the day i started NoFap, but i decided to keep it to myself first. This post will be divided into several parts background, PMO habit, reasons to NoFap, progress and questions. First, my...

Hey guys, I hope I don’t get flamed but i really had a bog problem with watching porn and masturbation. There wasn’t one day where I did not go without masturbating and watching porn. I had this death grip problem and i decided i had to finally let go of that and start anew for the sake of my...

I have a really strong urge. I guess I am gonna do the following. 1. Go to my room and turn on my computer or phone 2. Start browsing the sites I know. I know many good sites. I will keep watching those whores and losers fucking each other. very exciting. 3. It is been few minutes already...

Hello fellow Fapstronauts, stopping with pornography is one step of many to enhance our lifes. So I am sharing a project of mine with you that has a very high payoff: My goal is to learn the habit to clean my apartment every evening so the dirt, the waste and my clothes stop piling up on the...

1. For years, I have used P to soothe emotional distress. This is a problem. I "quit" several times with varying degrees of success. But ultimately, I slide back into it when times get tough. Beating this bad habit is essential to my life - physically, mentally, emotionally. 2. Continuing to...

In the book "Awaken The Giant within", Tony Robbins writes that we tend to do things that makes us avoid pain and brings pleasure. Also while explaining the Science of Neuroassociative Conditioning, he writes that if you associate enough pain to your habit, you will be able to quit it...

Hi Everyone, Im Snowalker(Not my real name, huhu). And I'm from Malaysia. So glad to be here. A little bit about me is that Im 23 years old and I have been fapping to porn since i was 14 years old. 9 Years of fap and not even a single month i can restrain from fap. I have read a lot of...

I feel as if I'm not 'addicted' to it but it's more of a habit that I've stuck to for years. Because whenever I'm at school from 7AM until 3PM, I don't think about that shit but once 10PM,11PM or 12AM touchdown, then the urge grows. I'm unable to fall asleep without watching it, sometimes I stay...

I originally posted this on Reddit, but it didn't gain much traction. Still, I thought people would benefit and post it here as well. Here it goes. I have been battling PMO for about 2 years. My biggest streak was 3 months. Other than that I very rarely stayed clean for more than a week. So...

Hi. Since watching porn and jerking off becomes such a regular negative activity for us, to completely recover we need to develop a new good habit, that replaces porntime. For me, it is going to the gym.That's what I will begin from this weekend onwards.

The only reason id ever be browsing incognito is when i am looking for P or P related stuff. The website www.x*******.com would be typed without thinking as soon as I open incognito. Believe me, that was the fastest thing I could type on my phone or on a laptop. Such a strong involuntary habit...

Look, I've been doing this M thing for like 15 years now. Is it even possible to break a habit you've been doing for almost half of your entire lifetime? Are there anyone out there whom manage to conquer themselves over a bad habit that was established for almost their entire lifetime?? Just...

Hello fellow fapstronauts, I ve been having many problems in the near past (Girlfriend rejections, weed problems, awful loneliness, excessive PMOing etc....). Im looking for some people who share the same difficulties I am facing ans who are looking for Self-Improvement - not Just in the sense...

As of tomorrow, I will have achieved 70 days p/m free. (despite what my counter says) I cannot fully articulate the inordinate amount of freedom I am feeling, as compared to the former life of bondage I was living with porn addiction. At the risk of sounding cliche, truly, I am living a...

Hey guys. I'm 18. I face the same addiction which everyone else is facing here. I started masturbating at the age of 15 and since then I have overly abused this habit. I have tried many times quitting this habit but I failed everytime. I feel like a sore loser. I don't know what to do and this...

As a addict I'm used to be going to sleep past 12am at night, since its the time when I tend to relapse. Thing is, I'm not getting enough sleep. Has anyone here changed their sleeping habits after starting nofap? Please provide some tips to make going to sleep around 9-10pm a normal/natural...
