hopeful

Hi, I'm an amateur writer, that's my hobby, and also a source of shame. I write erotica smut. I read erotica smut. I look at porn. I masturbate. I'm depressed. I'm unfulfilled in my job. I'm tired. I'm hopeful. Sure, years of bad decisions and unfiltered access to the internet has disposed...

Hey This is not my first text on the forum - the first was a response to the user's entry wcyd - he also starts another fight today. I included some information about myself in my answer, don't be angry, but let me include some of it in the current post. I come from Poland, I am 30 years...

Hi all, I'm a pretty "successful" individual, I have a beautiful girlfriend that I love. But I can't stop returning every few weeks to porn. And when I come back, Its masturbating 3-4 times a day and feeling like shit. How to stop?

Right now I have not been to my home since new years. I've lived in a hotel the whole first week, now staying with my parents, healthy as a dog, but my room mate got covid and I have to stay away from him. I went to work today, its been 10 days with no symptoms and I'm good to go. Love my...

Very nice to finally be here and see loads of people 0_0 I'm a 17 year old in High School. I've been using porn since 15 and have been trying to get out on my own ever since the first time curiosity brought me to it. So, I am Catholic and using pornography every time always overall brought me...

So this is it. New attempt to try become free. I started during collage and ended up addicted while being lonely. Now it’s like my brain needs it from time to time. Or else I feel forced to do it - when I feel bad. It can be because of stress, loneliness, sadness and also boredom. I’m a female...

It's going on the 7th day of my streak. Somehow I managed to send an old friend a message and she responded back to me. I hope to actually speak with her more and be friends again. I remember the last time I reached 7 days I felt an urge to communicate with another friend of mine again. I...

Since I was a child I have been facing sexual content. First I was forced to it through a neighbour of mine. Later I just seek it everywhere to reflect on all my emotions. In kindergarten two of my teachers abused me mentally after I had sexual exploration with a girlfriend of mine. The shame in...

I am now on a new streak of 52 days free. But it is becoming really hard to resist the urge again, I don't know why, but I have been unable to control myself and feel like I may ruin yet another streak. It's a huge mental battle that I want to win but is getting very hard to the more and more I...

Hey guys, how are you all? I hope all is well. I'm a 15 year old guy, turning 16 in only 9 days. I'm a proud Muslim and optimistic person. And if you couldn't tell by my username, I'm a big Metallica fan. But that's going off topic, I'd love to talk about why I'm here and that's to try to seek...

Well, I don't know exactly what I'm doing here. What led me to this is simple, I am aware I have a problem and something has to change, easy enough I suppose. Things get messy with the how/why/when of it all really.. Introductions, right. Well, Hello. You can call me Stray for now, until I'm...

so I was on a streak of 24 and relapsed...sadly, but now I am committed and making my way back up. But I was just wondering if I’ll be just as funny and feel just as I did before with the superpowers I had. Or could it be worse? I hope it’s better but idk. Because I was hitting it off really...

Hello people, this being my first post and not really knowing what I'm doing I'm just going to try my best and learn as I go. I'd like to congratulate everybody who's taking control in their lives. I know this is what I want, and I know this is going to be hard. One thing is for certain I'm...

Hello everyone, My name is Antonio, I play music and enjoy drawing. I'm here because I feel pornography has had a hold on me for quite some time and I want to put an end to it. First of all, I just want to say how appreciative I am that there is a support group like this for a problem that...

Hi everyone, I am excited to be part of the NoFap community and walk with other Fapstronauts in this journey to recovery. I'm a 28 year old male. I discovered pornography when I was hitting puberty around 12 yrs old. I've been hooked to porn and masturbation since then. During my years of...

As of today, I have achieved 83 days P/M free, and only 7 days away from my long term goal of 90 days. 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...

Hello everyone, I finally decided to make an account and utilize the NoFap community during my fight to get away from this shit. I have been watching porn and masturbating since I was about 13 or 14. In recent years I have noticed that it seems to be one of the major detriments to my well being...

Hi. I've been having a lot of difficulties controlling how much PMO is in my life. Sometimes I barely enjoy masturbating, and when I finish I'm filled with negative emotions. I also don't enjoy porn when I'm not fapping because a lot of what I see is somewhat degrading or doesn't make sense. Yet...
