new beginning

Hi everyone! I’m a 20 year old student, I’ve been addicted to M for about 4 years, and watching P is on and off. I’ve been wanting to quit ever since I started literally! Every now and then I take a decision that it’s the last time ever, but after a week or two, sometimes a month or two, I do...

I am 29, i started masturbating when I was 12 and doing it with internet porn at 17 with 19 already felt the consequences. At college i passed from an A student to someone who was happy to have a C or a D, due to the shitty life i was living, at 26 I still had not finished College so i gave...

Hey, I'm not not new to rebooting... I just haven't succeeded at successfully doing it. The longest streak I ever had was 7, in the terms of PMO. The longest streak I ever had was 11, in the terms of MO. I want to go past just a couple days of not looking at porn. I want...no...I need to not...

Hi everybody, I’m here because I have a problem of watching porn (P) and masturbating (M) that has manifested since the age of about 11 and on average I haven’t skipped a day! I am now 26 and will be 27 in nearly 3 months. Ever since I got into a serious relationship nearly 2 years ago...

Hi, Today is my 3rd day of my new journey. I will turn 30 november 1st so I wanted to start for beginning of this month so that I have a more clear date to follow. I tried quitting before but I just can't. PMO has a strangling hold on my life. I work as a independent contractor so I can make a...

Hello I was a member of the nofap reddit community before some years. I remember that I was restarting my budge every 4 to 5 days. After a period of time, I gave up. Now, the problem is that I feel like this damn sexual habits is destroying me and that I'm getting more involved on it in new...

Hello. I'm new to this website. I'm almost 19 years old, and I've had enough of partaking in PMO after years of doing it. I guess it was fun for a while, but now, I want to give it up. Sooner or later, I want to raise a family, and I don't want PMO to ruin that. However, it has been hard for...

Hi, new to Nofap here! I have made the decision to try and kick my PMO habit, which has developed and evolved over the years from a mere curiosity to a life disrupting dependency. Over the past year, I have noticed my urges growing stronger along with a negative shift in my attitude to...

I'm in the process of restarting everything in my life. One of which is to get my self back to the way I was before I started watching porn. The moment I realized that porn and masterbating has run it's course is when I spent hours liking for the perfect amatuer style porn because overproduced...

Hi y'all Im new at this site, and joined this because i've been feeling like i'm not living to my fullest potential. It's like i know i can do so many things better but i just can't because my mind is clouded and kinda messed up. I've been through alot througout my life. I was born in a poor...

Alright so here we go I guess. I've actually wanted to do this for a long time now but never really motivated myself doing it. But anyways.. let's start: About one year ago, in April, I first heard about NoFap, self improvement and all that. I was fascinated by it and quickly began to actually...

So I decided to abstain from pornography & masturbation, a week before the new year begins. This is so I am in a good state when entering the new year so I can achieve all of my goals. 7 days in. I feel great right now and very motivated. At first I felt no effects; still depressed, low sex...

Coming from a country where it is illegal and taboo to be gay, I struggled with my sexuality for a long time. It took me 22 years to have my first sexual encounter and by that time I had grown used to using porn and masturbation to give me some needed release. As a result my sexual experiences...

Hey, my name is Rogelio Rodriguez, but you can just call me Roger. I don’t know where to start but I slowly got into this when a few videos concerning the subject of abstaining from watching porn and masturbating starting coming up on several websites I visited including YouTube.

Hello everyone, I know I'm addicted to PMO for about 5 years. I have been in rehab for internet sex addiction 4 years ago. It helped but shortly after the rehab has stopped i was getting back on track in my old (unwanted) behavior of PMO. After a recent rejection by a wonderful women (she has...

I have struggled with sexual addiction since I was 13. Sex was not something that was ever talked about in my home, I am not sure what I even learned and when. At 18 my girlfriend was pregnant. Ten years later I was divorced and headed down the wrong path. Through God's grace I met another woman...

A little about myself, I am 24 about to turn 25 soon and I have been faping everyday at least 3 times since the age of 12. 5 times maybe on days off. I feel drained, depressed and get very shy around girls. Shy as in I literally cannot speak and panic, words do not come out. It has affected me a...

I've had several years of stop-and-start experiences with porn use. I am really excited by the community and approach of NoFap. I'm taking on the 90 day "normal challenge" after some porn use earlier today. I am sure the first week will be difficult, so I am glad to have the support of this...

Hey guys,i discovered PMO in my 9th grade and since then I'm regularly addicted to it. I'm 22 now and till now what I have understood is that i am no longer interested in any random P. I want something better and hornier P which is increasing gradually. I feel that it has affected me in many...

man i was relapsing 2 weeks everyday because of lack of motivation, and after almost 3 days now i can feel even more the damage i was doing, i feels now i need less hours of sleep to feel full and i am becoming more confident again

I started NoFap because I've been "fapping" since a age that was too young (third grade) and now that I go to a Catholic High School I realize that it is a bad thing and has bad effects on you. I learned about NoFap from a Steven Crowder podcast where Gary Wilson was guesting. I hope this...

Hello my new fellow Fapstronauts. I'm addicted to porn. I think I've been addicted since I was at least 12, I'm 23 now. I was aware of pornography before then but I actively pursued porn regularly by that time. It's been a force for most of my life. I've always been a sexual person, but also a...

Hello everyone! my name is Rhys and I'm 19 and I've been trying to do nofap since January and its now May, I've made progress but I'm still relapsing after a few days or even a week. What would happen is that I would get headaches and then I'd accidentally relapse and the pain slowly goes away...

Hello there, I'm 21 straight guy ( sorry for my bad english ) and here's my problem. I've started to masturbate when I was in elementary school I think. Back then, I didn't know what I was doing exactly, It was just pure pleasure so I didn't care. I must say here, that I was always attracted to...

So it al started actually with a hard 4 year breakup with My Gf. 4 months later I started digging deeper in self-discovery. I was starting to get annoyed pissed at this sad, depressed feeling. I wanted to connect and I couldn't. Meet new girls, get laid and so but never really got the deal...

Hey, I'm Elizabeth. Not really sure what to say, I'm not feeling very enthusiastic about NoFap honestly, not sure if I'll continue this or give up. But I don't want to be someone who has no control over themselves, nor do I want to use masturbation as an excuse to numb the issues in my life...

Hello Fapstronauts, I am Pratik (21 years old) from India, I am an addict to porn and masturbation. I've been masturbating for 8-9 years and I've tried harder to not do these things, I somehow manage to get through for a month but then history repeats itself. I recently saw a video by...

Hello everyone, I'm 17 years old male from India. I think that abstaining from porn and masturbation can help me reboot my life as a whole. I started watching porn when I was 15 and for two years used to masturbate daily. The result of this was wasting lots of time viewing adult content and a...

I'm a 26 year old male who is recently married. I am seeking help because masturbation and porn was beginning to hurt my wife. When I began masturbating and seeking porn as a catalyst to masturbation, it was not seen as a big deal to me. A teenager viewing porn is a strange mix of taboo and...

Hi everyone. So I've decided to make a change in my life. Since starting uni I've watched way more porn than I should and fapped way to much. At one point reaching 5 times a day. I'm now 21. I don't have many female friends, I'm fairly shy and lacking confidence. I only recently lost my...

Hi everyone. I decided to join this community to get help with my struggles with porn. I experience a lot of loneliness and shame when it comes to porn use especially. So hopefully this community will be supportive. I look forward to supporting other too.

I am 17 and have been addicted to pornography since the age of about 11 or 12. I found out about NoFap on youtube a couple weeks back and so far, my longest streak has been 8 days, in which I noticed I felt much more there when I was in social events or hanging out with my friends. I relapsed on...

Hello my fellow Fapstronauts! I'm happy to be a part of this incredibly supportive and empathetic community. I've been following/reading/lurking on this site and the Reddit for about 2 years now as I've tried to go No PMO, but I finally decided to take the plunge and join the community for...

Hi all! I'm new here. I'm a 27 year old male digital artist and big time nerd, and I've struggled with porn addiction for most of my life now. I just recently, within the last day or so, discovered NoFap and read some of the scientific effects of porn addiction, and I guess something finally...

Hi folks, I am new to all this NoFap thing, and I have decided to give it a try...things can't get worse than what they already are. I am in my 30s and I've been watching porn and masturbating to it since I was in my 16-17s, basically since I've got access to cable internet...hehe I've been...

Hi everyone, Just returning back to get back on track and without support of people going through same challenges it's hard and mostly embarassing in real life to share. I have taken all steps possible from reading exercising, meditation, CBT, new hobbies, spirituality, but still keep relapsing...

My name is Mr. E, and I'm here because I have a problem with pornography and masturbation. It feels so weird admitting that. It's a long story how I ended up addicted to this garbage, but here's the short version. I started watching porn and masturbating in middle school, successfully...

This is my first challenge ever in this site, I'm excited about It , As you know the first week after a relapse is the hardest week ever where all the thought cross your mind and your memory is super strong and you can remember every detail of porn scenes you've seen, I quite skeptical as I've...

Hi all, this might be a long thread but here goes. I started becoming a member of NoFap since about November 2016 after seeing a post about NoFap on Facebook I thought it would be interesting and try and see what it is like. After countless unsuccessful streaks the longest being about 20 days I...

Thought I'd join this community because I saw this video which explains how PMO causes a dip in motivation and it kinda makes sense. I don't think I'm addicted to PMO- I fap 3-6 times a week depending on how busy I am, but I find it pretty hard to control myself. And I want to work on that...

Hello everyone, I hope you're all having a great start to the year. I have just joined the community today as for sometime I have realised that I am suffering from PMO. I have managed to control the P, just not the M & the O. I've been watching porn for for at least 6 years & now it's time to...

Guys, does a wet dream count as relapsing?

Hi, I am 28 and I have been following the site for a while, but just decided to post now. I grew up with porn since I was 13 or so and I feel 15 years of porn use can really damage your clear vision on sexuality and girls. I had to use more and more extreme porn to get excited and at worst the...

Hey guys . it's my first day here. After trying to end my contact with porn and fapping,but failing to do so,i am here

"Admitting you have a problem is the first step" The Doctor has signed me off work for a month due to work induced stress and anxiety. A lot of time to think over many issues in my life. I've realised that I spend a lot of time escaping - avoiding(?) - from life with Porn when stressed, and...

Hello NoFap community I have a long history with masturbation, the first time i masturbated i was about 6-7 years old, but i only discovered porn when i was 11, and only really started watching it when i was 14. As time passed by , i started to masturbate even more until the very beginning of...

After trying this for a year, I decided to make an account. So I'm going to try and introduce myself quickly, but it's not easy to write so some parts might be confusing. I started with PMO when is was 12, then it was just MO, no porn involved. I didn't think it was anything bad, but looking...

Hi everyone. My name is Derrick and I am a 21 year old college student. I have just joined NoFap but have been aware of the community for a year now. Last year I had an awful experience with a nice slim girl where I was able to get her to the bedroom but couldn't get erect. I wasn't sure as to...
