Going through a tough time currently in terms of recovery. I’ll try to keep this short and simple. I’ve been addicted to porn since as long as i can remember and never tried to quit until about January 1st of this year. I went through all the withdrawals and then after around 2 and a half weeks...
Hello everyone,
My name is ___ and I am new to NoFap.
I have been addicted to porn and masturbation since 2012.
For many years I tried to quit but I couldn't get out of it.
Now I am really tired and I want my life back.
Because of this addiction:
- My energy is gone
- I can't focus
- I...
Every time I get good progress with stopping PMO, I fall back in with the idea that "This time will be different."
It's never true and it's very illogical to think that you can suddenly control how you PMO after years of not being able to. But for some reason, despite knowing this, my brain...
This addiction is terrible, and, ive already accepted the fact that ill probably die alone and never have sex or find love, which is why im willing to take drastic measures to get rid of my porn addiction. was wondering if there is any way to stop myself from getting horny at all and kill my sex...
Hello I'm 23 and I've been addicted to porn and masturbation since I was 16, although I started watching suggestive content since I was younger and I struggled with intrusive thoughts. I have seen and masturbated to stuff I'm not proud of at all. I started nofap two days ago and relapsed today...

Any tricks for fighting urges?
Had a relapse recently and my urges have skyrocketed again. I’ve gone past 24 hours but I’m nervous about the work week coming up. I don’t want any urges to hit me during the day. If I’m busy enough that’ll keep me occupied but if I’m not busy is what has me...
Yesterday I rolled my ankle horribly while skateboarding. Doctor told me it's sprained but I'll be out for about 2 weeks and I need some help and tips to maintain my porn free streak while I recover from this. Skateboarding and the gym has been what really gets porn off my mind and for the next...
As the title says, I’ve been struggling with porn addiction since I was 6, and I would like some pointers and help. I'm 18, I have a girlfriend i love so much and would do anything for, she is my main reason i’m doing this after hiding it from her for 2 years of our relationship. she moved away...
Long story short, I am 28 M. I became active too young in life. This subject has been apart of me for over 18 years. I started watching videos etc in 2012. I continued until July of 2024. I finally got married and felt like all would go away when I married but no. It persisted. I finally...

I'm now using large quantities of junk food to prevent me from relapsing, by replacing the dopamine fix my brain
wants, instead of pmo.

I am begging you all to please help me i am not able to quit this addiction at all I took all possible measures but I end i still end up doing pmo. I blocked all of the p sites from my laptop so that it does not triggers me and know I started to consume it on my phone when I enabled googles safe...
Hello, how are you doing? I'm new here and I don't know much English so. I want to stop consuming porn, I've been at it for 6 years and almost daily, I've come to be in a very difficult state for me, I'm not doing anything for my life and I'm sinking deeper and deeper and deeper, I've tried to...
I am at Stage 5 porn addiction. I have lost my work and relationships and I am trying to survive. I don’t have money for therapy. I really need support and accountability.
I relapsed by watching P for a while, but didn't MO. Now I'm pent up, do I just release so I can have a clean start?
I don't know if there are any negative side effects if I just continue NoFap without releasing right now.
I wrote this for a friend but I thought I would post it here in case it can help anyone besides myself:
You want to relapse so bad right now. You probably have a certain video or certain series of videos that your mind is telling you would feel incredible to relieve this piled up tension on...
Hey
I had a 60 day streak of absolute hard mode. Sadly ive relapsed, and it has been over a three day period. How do I bounce back from this?
And the question im really wondering about is how much harm have these caused? Am I able to simply just bounce back and hope that my brain hasn’t...
Hey everyone,
I'm a 25 year old guy living in Germany who's been struggling with porn addiction since my early teens (around 14). It's led to some deep issues, like porn-induced fetishes which i also started living out in Real Life (some of them) (Femdom, Findom, Gay Porn as straight guy...
Hi Brothers,

My life is going to hell. 0 friends, I relapsed again, no money, insomnia, dead inside... My addiction to porn is just the surface of all my problems, many will think that loneliness is hard, but not that much. Wrong. Today I relapsed only because of that. I...
Help, I can't stop peeking. I feel lonely, and every time I feel lonely, I peek, looking for stupid things without seeing any images, then I go into those sites and cover the whole screen and only see a gray corner... There I have a stupid slip, I close everything and feel bad... I have 5 days...
Hello my brothers. I am not new here in NoFap, but this last month (august) has been very bad for me. My best friend doesn't want to talk with me for a reason I do not know (she is avoiding me, and it has been 15 days since we talked). This made me depressed, and I ended in the same destructive...
Last month at the end of july i took the decision of finally putting an end to this. As i was feeling very underconfident. The sole reason i am doing this NoFap is for female attraction and to get the female i want. I know this is not the foundation of it. But i am looking to get married and...
Hey everyone,
I’m almost 47 days porn-free and I’m experiencing some extreme symptoms. I want to know if anyone else has gone through this.
What I’m feeling:
Severe anxiety and headaches, sometimes starting as soon as I wake up.
Physical urges that feel concentrated in the brain, pushing...
First of all sorry for my english. I have been on Nofap for years with very strong streaks. Lately this year i cant resist any urge and end up relapsing a lot. However my life its getting better but i cant enjoy it because of this addiction and how it messes up the dopamine.
My problem is...
Please don’t hate on me, I am younger than 18, and 17. Even 16.
When I was younger, probably 9, I took a big dog to my room and pulled my pants down, thinking it was going to do things to me…it did not, so I let it out my room. I wasn’t really thinking “oh yea I love dogs, he’s so hot” I...
I realised recently that I failed my streak because even though I stopped masturbating I watched at stuff online when my mood was down.
I feel like I won't be getting out of this by myself anytime soon.
What should I do to not relapse? how do I handle everyday stress?
To put it simply. Im 16. Im addicted to cub/loli/shota. A type of (DRAWN) porn depicting underage characters. For obvious reasons, im, disgusted with myself. But, i just, havent been able to find any form of help, anywhere. and im too scared to tell anyone. So i came here with a burner account...

I'm curious as to how many people here have considered talking to a doctor or therapist about this issue?
I'm curious as to how many people are too embarrassed to bring this up or if they're fine with it.
As someone who was insanely addicted from the jump, no build up no slow start, just almost as soon as I started jerking off and watching porn, I became addicted. I couldn't quit for years as I would get insanely big urges and couldn't make it past day 4 or 5. I was insanely agitated and...
I'm from Argentina, I'm 23 years old, I started watching when I was 8 or 9, I ejaculated when I was 12 for the first time watching p, I masturbated 6 or 7 times a day believing that it was normal, until the worst happened at age 19, one day I got dizzy and felt like I was going to fall to the...
Yo, my brethrens. What changes can I expect when my prolactin isn’t skyrocketed as it was in my last blood test? I know most of the basic stuff but would like some more anecdotal evidence to see if some of the effects can go beyond the current data we have about it.

Hello everybody.
I'm a 30 years old guy with a heavy PMO addiction since I was 15 (that means 15 years addicted, the half of my whole life). Since the first day I discovered M, at the age of 15, everything started going bad. I remember that day very well because my family and me went to my...
Hey everyone,
I'm currently on Day 37 of NoFap and something strange started happening yesterday (Day 36). I've been feeling a drop in energy, motivation, and mood—kind of like a mental fog or emotional flatline. It’s not that I’m having strong urges, but more like a sense of emptiness or...

I am very very tired of my addiction.
It’s been since I was 13 and ever since then I’ve gone at most a month without porn. I feel stuck. I feel useless. But most of all, I feel like I can do better than this.
I try and I fail. I eat like shit and only have like one meal a day. I’m not gaining...
Hey bros! I've been lurking here forever and this morning I just got the sudden urge to make my first ever post here. I'll try to keep it brief. Here's a synopsis of who I am:

I rarely talk to people. I get awkward. I hate speaking to people.

This is truly getting ridiculous.
I seem to be having to relieve myself sometime multiple times a day. This isn't normal.

Hello!
Basically i am a 26 year old porn addict and cheated on my (now) wife with porn. We have been together for almost 5 years, and from the start she made very clear she is against porn use. For many reasons, from the bad industry to the porn consumers own health.
I lied to her, betrayed...

Hi all,
thought I would share ways that have worked for me getting over PIED and what I have observed from people trying to recover.

I am 35...
