instagram

Freya India recently wrote about it on Substack. There are times when I wish I was in a relationship, but I would rather be single than be an Instagram boyfriend. I think one big red flag is a woman who has an Instagram profile full of photos of herself as if she's some sort of model. It is a...

Uhhhh, Trigger Warning! Just in case. Earlier I looked up the Instagram page of this public figure on Facebook. She's a dwarf, but Dear Lord the most perfectly gorgeous one I've ever seen in my life, perfect body only Mini. Her Instagram showed that she has an only fans and you can get 31 days...

Hello guys! So I've been a PMO addicted since I was 13 (I'm 28 right now). Since the beginning of this year I could stop watching porn, however I've been replacing this habit with a different one. Instead of porn, I started to masturbate to tiktok and Instagram videos. I tried to uninstall...

Since the Covid19 pandemic started, an app called TikTok became a phenomenon, and those videos pop up everywhere as well as on my Instagram. I don't use Instagram for sexual stuff, I only use Instagram for photography, food & drink, travel, sports, activities, and, of course, celebrities. I know...

Hi Everyone, I'm writing today because I woke up this night and I couldn't control myself. From 2 am to 6 am I edged 4 hours on Instagram and PMO twice. My main trigger on Instagram is to watch hot young girls and text them. I have a good profile with 20.000 followers so girls OFTEN reply me...

I know quite a number of people on here don't use it anymore and for the most part I don't. What I usually do is if I have something to share I download the app, make my post, take a look around for a few minutes, and uninstall it. I was shocked I went on it the other day. It's pretty much...

Hello first of all i just joined this community, now let's get straight to the point. So recently i was browsing on who i was following on instagram and i came across an account i had no idea i was following and i clicked on it by curiosity and it had booty pics and other nsfw stuff. but i...

hey guys.. dont u Fucking hate the explosion of porn bots on instagram recently?? We can't even use the good side of the app without getting triggered from the comments.. so I just created a petition when I got some extra time to bring attention to this issue. But I need 5 signs initially to...

Hi Team, I want to get straight to the point: I have been recovering from PIED for almost 27 months. My PMO addiction spans over 16 years and I currently sit in my early 30s. My overall progress involves a handful of misguided Orgasms from trying to rewire but not much else. After 2 years of...

Hey, guys! I'd like to start a thread on thoughts about the influence of social media on increasing PMO habits. What are your experiences about this issue? On the last months, I've been triggered a lot on content available on very popular platforms, like Instagram, Tik Tok and Twitch. How...

I deactivated again my insta profile. Why? -I was spending 20 hours a week on it -I wasn't taking anything good from it, it just wasn't worth it -I saw too many perfect people in there, even though it doesn't affect me anymore -It has been a while since I wanted to disappear again for a while...

Hi, as i said on the title of this thread i want to reset my instagram feed. Is there a way? I need instagram because i follow a lot of motivational accounts, finance, workouts... but my feed (the main page with suggested pics and videos) always shows me pics and videos with girls because time...

Today is the first day of my journey to an addiction free life. I've been addicted to porn, and more recently candid/voyeuristic porn, for more than half of my life. Over the past five years or so, my addiction has led me to some pretty disgusting places. I've jerked off in my car while...

Hi everybody, I am new here and ready to begin taking the NoFap journey seriously. I fell that I need to make my confession somewhere in order to begin my recovery journey and I hope this is a safe place to say some things. I don't feel like I have anybody in my life yet with whom I am can be...

Hello there. I am in day 3 today and was feeling low few hours ago. My mind was craving to watch porn. But I went to Instagram and searched some models (not fully naked). I didn’t touch myself but i got a boner. I didn’t masturbate or had orgasm. After 15 mins I closed and uninstalled Instagram...

Can any of you relate to this modification - till my 20y I used porn to fap. In my 20-21y I discovered Tinder, Badoo as dating apps with the aim to date with girls. However, after my first sexting (girls sent me nudes and described how they want sex), it was for me even more attractive and...

I intended to quit porn this year and made my streak of 20 days but just after 20 days I found some dirty memes on Instagram. Incest memes, pornstar memes and i can't explain anyway. But I got addicted to those memes and I masturbate on them. The pictures on those memes force me to watch them...

So on day 6 of quitting porn, I feel that I really need to watch porn again, but I've installed already an application that blocks those websites so I couldn't browse them, BUT I suddenly thought that Instagram will help me get my dopamine. I thought that Instagram has real persons "not fake"...

Hi there & cheers to all the fapstronauts! After a successful streak of 155 days and starting relationships with very sweet & supportive, almost the girl of my dreams I am still here & still planning to do a next nofap run. Because I am still vulnerable. I have cancelled the usage of porn but...

I have a girlfriend but I am still addicted to masturbating to girls I know on Instagram and very regularly will go different girls' Instagram profile to see if they posted any "slutty" so I can get turned on. I feel gross after and it affects the way I look at others. Does anyone else have a...

I've watched a good and eye opening documentary about the root of internet addiction. I could relate to all of the contents in this documentary. If you haven't watched it you can find it on Netflix. This documentary mainly focused on the internet addiction but I want to share this documentary to...

This weekend has been tough as I've had nothing planned and have spent most of my time stuck at home. I've managed to resist my urges but too often when on social media I keep coming across images and videos that increase them. I've unfollowed accounts that would post anything provocative but I...

Seriously considering to quit SMs 90% bullshit happens on them takes a lot of time and energy which I think is completely wasted. but there isn't any other option to communicate with people, sitting in my room alone can also take a toll on my mental health. Any suggestion are welcome.

I was bored, so I decided to check Instagram. I saw a picture that kinda aroused me, and I realized that I was just going on insta to find the occasional psub. Moving forward from that, I removed it from my phone, and I'm planning to block it entirely. But now I'm in a situation where I'm...

If Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tumbler and Reddit had the same business model as Netflix or Apple Music would they be a better places? I mean you'd have to be a seriously dedicated troll if you were will to pay 5.99/9.99 a month just to troll people. Here's an interesting video by Jaron...

Hi guys, I have had great success using both Purity and Detoxify to stay clean from porn and other bad websites. In particular, the purity google chrome browser extension allows you to block custom sites and apps. For example, I've had problems with chatterbate, grindr, Instagram, snapchat...

Ok so I made a rule of using Instagram for 10 minutes at night to talk to my friends a bit. I was going through the explore page and literally everything is so fu##ing sexualized! I am not going to describe what I saw from even memes about porn and how it's normalised to semi-graphic stories...

I'm new to this site, I'm tried no fapping and the longest I've gon was 24 days but, every time I try not fapping I scroll on social media and bam im triggered all over again and I have to start all over. For my job i need to be on social media so there is really no escaping. How do you all...

I love using instagram for it's aesthetic and the memes it has. The problem I have is, is that there is no button to block unwanted content. What i have to do is delete the app and reinstall it every time to limit my use on it ( this works for some reason) any help so i can laugh at memes in...

Try abstaining from PMO carefully and don't look facebook, instagram. If you don't see stupid posts from people about their bf/gf or partner etc and how much they are enjoying yo will feel better. Connect with real people who really wants you like your family. But do remember not to use high...

Not sure where to put this thread, so I'll park it here. It's brief. All my many relapses have come as a result of using Instagram and many other people's experience on here is the same. Do not, under any circumstances, keep it on your devices if you are serious about stopping. At best, it's a...

So i am almost at a week of NoFap but a couple of times i have looked at hot girls in tight clothes on Instagram, looking at clothes porn stars on google images, hot girls dancing on YouTube etc. Although none of these girls have been naked and none of it has been porn, i was wondering if this...

Hey guys! Seriously it is very much annoying to know that your data is being sold and used by millions of companies just to target you with their advertisements. I have deactivated my account, I also knew my data that is being used had so many private conversations, and I’m feeling sick now...

So I am on day 12 no PMO. I started rebooting 16 days ago, but looked at pictures of a pornstar's scenes on day 4 so I reset (it wasn't long and no MO). Since then, I went on worldstar stumbled upon a picture of an onlyfans model, I looked at some nude pictures for a minute (no MO). Then I felt...

Hey guys, I've never had an issue with watching porn, in fact, I don't watch it much (every other week), However, I am addicted to masturbation. The material I use instead is pictures of girls from Facebook/Instagram, some of whom I know personally or kind of know or sometimes just your classic...

Hello there, as for right now I am almost 28 days into NoFap. I am trying to reduce the dopamine in my brain to a minimum and I’ve come across a little problem. Let’s just say that I still follow (porn related) models on Instagram. They do not post any pornographic or nude content because it is...

Hi, Here's my story: So about a year ago, I broke up with my high school gf after graduating and started to try and hook up with this girl i've always wanted that summer. I was confident, excited, and then I realized I couldn't get it up. At the time a jerked off multiple times a day and edged...

Does anyone here not bring there phone in the bathroom? thats where I used to PMO with my phone so I probably should stop bringing it in there I figure. Its really weird how you make choices that you otherwise wouldn't have made when your turned on like look at pics of women even if its not P...

Hi all, Basically I am interning for someone and I have to run their instagram account. Since I can't post on a computer (I would've used their work computer), I have to use my phone. This has caused me a lot of temptation, edging, and even one relapse. I usually completely pin protect and...

Goodevening dear Reader, Lately I've been thinking about social media and the effect it has on our behaviour. These thoughts started after my last big relapse a few days ago. Before this, I've never had a problem with social media, but this time it was the root cause of the relapse. Social...

I am going through the longest streak.I now have serious temptaion to watch instagram models as well as other celebrity,P. Is there any way to stop this urge.also I cant control my emotions....HELP!!!!!

Currently on my longest streak without porn and was finally able to O with my girlfriend. I'm not going to be able to see her for a few weeks and until then I really want to avoid a relapse. I just looked up some Instagram pages of models and didn't pursue it further but I worry that this might...

Hi everyone! Kinda' new here and I thought I would become a member so I can get better help :-) Something I've been thinking about is: Does Instagram, like instagram models and similar, count as pornography? The question has been eating my braincells recently. As far with the "nofap...

everytime i try stopping I always end up back to square one and relapse. Its like I know porn is wrong but my mind just doesnt accept its wrong. Soon as I go facebook look at some hot friends im fapping away and start looking at other stuff like instagram etc then end up in porn. I even ended...

Hello, I used to see benefits on 8-10 day-streak of no PMO. Today i'm on 10 day-streak of no PMO and 20 days of no MO (10 days ago i watched 30 min of porn without MO) and i see no benefits at all. The last 10 days i have been surfing on instagram, sometimes looking at beautiful girls, with...

Anyone who has an IG knows what i mean lol.

Ive been using youtube since 10 years from now on.. i was really got frustrated by using youtube... too many ads, too many irrevelent videos sometimes it promotes disturbing and crazy stuff going on.. so from now on im going to take a oath to uninstall following apps from my phone such as...

Hi all, I'm new here looking for some support as I get started on this journey. I know that reading up on others fetishes or addictions stories give me temptations, so I will post mine under the following line. If reading about my problems will give you temptations, stop reading here. (Sorry...

I'm a 14 year-old high school student and I've been addicted to porn since 12! I've always tried to severe my ties with social media, but I keep coming back. Recently, I've been indulging in unorthodox porn; social media images, namely from Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Everyday, without...

Instagram certainly can have it's floors. Whilst browsing, I came across an arousing picture of a sexy woman and double checked (looked again quickly) to see if I saw it. I don't know why I did that even though it was for like half a second. I've placed it down as a strike and I have 16 more to...

Here I am. I've been watching porn since i was at least 11, although it might have been earlier than that, I can't remember. I'm ready to be done. I can't reconcile my porn use with how I want to live my life. I'm 22 now, and studying to become certified as a personal trainer. I'm in a...

hey, I am kinda new to this nofap lifestyle. I am 18 years old and I started about half a year ago. My longest streak is 45 days and I am currently on day 25. But last night slmething happened. It has happened on other streaks as well but I don't know If it counts as a relapse. It happened when...

I'm an 18 year old girl, and ever since my freshman year of high school I've watched porn and climaxed to it almost every day of my life. I've always been into romance, not sexual things. I've always wanted to have a very romantic and amazing relationship without having to have sex for at least...

Social media specially FB and IG have been the 90% of my triggers. 90% of my relapses have been because of that. The others, weed and alcohol. Remove triggers are essential to win the war. I´m almost in day 90. So it´s my first goal accomplished!! Despite all the benefits I have felt, I think...

The following part is an extraction of my reboot guide. I read just now some more things which let me realize that I probably should restart my counter and quit IG completly which is kind of counterintuitive because I get to know the most females from Instagram and meetup with them. I have to...

Hello all, As I'm sure you are aware, social media can be a pretty big trigger in many circumstances (and in general is a big time waster). Just today a girl on my Instagram posted a picture that triggered me and I was thinking about relapsing all day ( luckily I didnt). Ive tried to majorly...

I have always been highly sexual, and fairly proud to be. A lot of intellectuals and successful people are highly sexual people, my thought being that I may belong among them. This has rarely been a problem, I am fairly successful, although who couldn't be more successful if they managed to rid...

OK I know this is a small streak but I thought it would be interesting to note what happens after two weeks--I'll keep it short. • I have more time. I have more time and that means my productivity is higher. I've already had several good things happen in my career life and it doesn't seem to be...

Hey fellow fapstronauts, So I have been texting this girl over Insta since late-December last year. This girl is extremely cute and has a great sense of humour (at least over text). Now this girl would engage in conversation with me, laugh at my jokes, and make plans with me to hang out, and...

so this morning i get up starts swiping on my phone and didn’t really have morning wood that much until i actually started to wake up and so I’m scrolling on instagram on this one girls profile who i think is like a very gorgeous. Didn’t think any bad things like having sex with her or her...

I made it successfully 33 days from December 1st-January 2nd until I read on here that looking at pictures of hot chicks on Instagram was considered a relapse, so I said F it and jerked off to real porn. Between then and last week Thursday I continued PMOing, with the occasional 1-2 day streak...

Just curious of what kind of thing you do or watch makes you go hard and say "oh crap!" and pick another fight with temptation. In my case, I follow a lot of girls I know on instagram who post photos on the beach wearing bikinis or topless backwards pictures. Sometimes I just can't open...

Hi so ive been on social media for 3 years and this year it started to feel like a big competition and i started to see so much "perfection" and you know it just seems fake... im in high school so everyones like you need to be on instagram and i am but yesterday i deleted the apps from my phone...

Hey everyone - the thought of eliminating triggers seemed appealing at first until I realized it's just everywhere and connected to other compulsions From my computer, to my iphotos, to my saved tabs on my browsers, to all my social media accounts, to even yoga class! HAS ANYONE EVER GRADUALLY...

NoFap is definitely a process that takes strong determination and insane willpower. I achieved 90 days last year but ended up relapsing at that 90 day mark. What was it to? Some model on Instagram. I'm currently on NoFap. I believe that social media has a direct impact on why many Fapstronauts...

Reboot is going as well as can be expected. One thing that I sometimes struggle with is social media, namely Instagram. Deleted all of my social media apps including IG but sometimes (like once every 2-3 weeks) when I'm on my PC I'll check out IG. Particularly one girl I'm attracted to there...

I’VE made the tough decision to either quit – or take a break from - social media. Here's why... I just feel that I waste too much time on it, and that it's quite simply sucking the life and soul out of me. For a while, I’ve stopped using Instagram and Snapchat for these reasons alone. It's...

This is my mistake and I'm going to own up to it. I shouldn't have been wasting time mindlessly browsing social media, but yet I fell into the trap. I started off by just scrolling through my feed, and then I found a pop-up and felt a slight rush of dopamine. From there, I had a moment of...

Greetings everyone! Is it just me or do you guys consider this tempting to your urges? I somehow have plenty of friends and/or acquaintance on instagram that are pretty attractive (sometimes slutty or exposing). Being a regular Instagram user + my regular porn mindset have really tempted my...

I joined this website in the beginning of January this year. I told myself then, New Year New Me. I won't PMO anymore. (This includes porn, half naked models, women online in general) It's August 24th 2017 and yet I PMO 3 times today and my longest streak has only been 12 days? since then...

Hey guys! 20 Male in California here! I have finally made the leap to join NoFap Acadamy and commit to bettering myself after +3 years of battle. Since 2014, (senior year high school) I have been in the shadows of the reddit nofap community, reading posts and being aspired by some of your...

Almost every relapse I've had was thanks to Social Media. Instagram has become a clusterfuck of barely-clothed women. It's skewing our perspective of how beauty should be. Instead of taking the time to acknowledge our strengths and weaknesses as human beings. We're developing a jealousy...

1. It's designed to be addictive. 2. It gives you a false sense of accomplishment. 3. Lowers self-esteem. 4. Hurts social skills. 5. The worse type of investment.

As well as doing NoFap. Has anyone on here quit some - if not, all - social media networks to deal with and combat loneliness. Personally, I've done this to avoid comparing myself to others without making me feel inadequate about myself and my own life. Marriage, kids, nice car, decent job...

So I have completed my second day of being porn free. I am keeping myself very busy as a distraction and hoping that pace keeps up. I feel good, but I have definitely felt some significant urges today. I deleted my instagram because that was a trigger, it feels shitty knowing i can't...

Just like fapping, social networking also consumes our time and sometimes we encounter with things which becomes our trigger to M. So, i thought to take this challenge too and make my life more aimful. 90 days no social networking. Only interacting with real people in real life and do things on...

The phone is the tool i use for P, I'm going to try to cut down on it. When I get home I'm plugin it and only unplugging it to specifically talk to someone or leaving my house. My most resent relapse (which just happened) was trigger by instagram and a screenshot of porn in the browse tap. I...
