pain

I've compulsively masturbated for as long as I masturbated. Have to jo at least 1-3 times perday. Honestly I didn't think I'd last this long without seeing any problems. But now I basically goon - spending hours edging myself, getting off multiple times. Longest I've gone I think is 6ish hours...

Hi everyone, Last year, I stopped watching porn and I started abstaining from ejaculation for days to a week at a time. It felt empowering. I developed a habit of masturbating without ejaculating, sometimes a couple of times a day, releasing only after a week. After about 4 months, I noticed...

has anyone noticed a similar symptom to mine please? The best example I can give is when I sit for a little while, then upon standing up, I instantly feel as if I'm about to pee myself - I basically feel something traveling through urethra with an uncomfortable stinging and burning sensation...

Hi all . I am approaching day 17 NoFap and have been experiencing pain just below my tummy .....pelvic pain i guess ...or is it bladder....i dont know. I strongly suspect that it has something to do with my not releasing . I was told that my body would re-absorb the semen that has not been...

Hi, I have been having sex with my wife for a month or so now, before that she was virgin, I have had ~7-10 sessions now with her but she says that she doesn't enjoy sex at all and that it is just painful for her and nothing else. In the beginning we realized we were not using enough lubricant...

So you wanna complain that everything is hard? You brought yourself to this forum for a reason. You're sick and tired of watching life happen to everyone around you but yourself. Everyone your age and younger is getting married, starting families, and starting careers. And it's eating you...

Long story short, I'm now back in the gym after years of non-attendance. However, I've developed a pain in my right knee; I feel it most when I'm kneeling or descending stairs. I'm shopping around for a physiotherapist (I may ask a friend to suggest a good one), but the internet says that this...

I’ve had good success when rebooting up until about day 14. Around then I get this dull constant pain right above my left ball on my body. It will last for days nonstop and is sometimes crippling and sometimes very manageable. It goes away if I end the reboot by nutting. I’ve encountered this on...

Hello gentlemen, I´m not a great english-speaker but here we go with this hell. I have this unique problem: In September 2022 I haven't ejaculated for 20 days, but in these days I was over-stimulated, with erections for all those days, fantasizing and that with chats, so I relapsed in the 20th...

Hi, I'm 28 years old and I've been tapping since I can remember (under 10 years old) I started the reboot process, I didn't fall even once and before that I did all the tests that show that Im completely healthy. Today I am on day 76 and I am still unstable. I have better days and less good...

Hello everybody, this isn't my first account on here, I made my first account years ago and spent a lot of time here, so I'm not new to this, but I had a question... Have any of you developed severe (or less severe) chronic pain or illness from PMO addiction? I have all kinds of really bad...

朋友们，我的英语不是很好。我想问你，睾丸痛戒手淫后，需要排精吗？

Hello Like the title says when i was 14 i went on the darknet to look for cp..... i was pretty tech-savvy so it wasn't to hard to find, i went looking for it because at the time i had the ''excuse'' to want to look at girls my own age. Fair warning for anyone reading im not gonna sugercoat it...

Hey, so this is my second night on NoFap and it was painfull. I usally masturbate every evening to make myself sleepy and my body was waiting for that. I was starting to have Fantasies about Sex and even more about the True perverdet nature of my current mind. This is a true sign that I am...

It might seem weird but what if causing pain can help in addiction? I don't mean like cutting yourself, that's extreme and should never be done. About three weeks after watching this 7 minute video here, the idea occurried to me. I recommend watching the video although I'll give a quick rundown...

Hi, everyone. I'm at day 17 of my PM reboot. This is the longest I have ever gone without M. I have not even gotten an erection other than with my wife in the 17 days. I had sex with my wife tonight. It lasted way longer than usual and I was properly "up" the whole time. When I finally did...

hello, i think i am on day 81 right now i have been thinking again about touching myself as if i could relapse, which i did not. it's been more than two months of NO Porn and NO Masturbation with a few not important wet dreams. i am a bit lost in life... i can't be trusted by people, i...

It's a closing circle. I finally reached 90 days of no PMO just when you decided to leave... So, this is my story. I came to this forum many times in the past years. In late 2019 I was searching for an AP group of gay people. In this group, I met K. K. has become my AP partner. We used to chat...

Guys i have been trying to have a nice streak at nofap for like couple years, probably 4. And its okay that i relapsed so many times because i have been grown in this process. And im really grateful. But after years later thanks to the that SPAM REMOVED (spam code #001) - REPORT TO MODERATION (the porn version of it) (havent...

Dear Brothers and Sisters Fapstronauts, Please excuse me if there is already such a topic somewhere in the forum. My Problem: When i date my gf i feel extreme sexual overstimulation (no touching, no kissing) like i am about to cum. This causes me instant erection with small amount of precum...

I am hoping to hear if anyone else is having extreme pain in their body. Mine is in my chest and likely costochondritis, but the pain is so severe while I am recovering that I cannot sleep or even function. Is it possible withdrawal from pmo is causing this increased sensitivity to pain?

Once I bought a woman masks for face, and use it while masturbate... because I felt like I want to be like woman inside... To be desired... And to hide the feeling of inferiority, that I'm bad, behind the mask, to be desired. I also used dart needles, and used glue to stick them to my nipples. I...

So I was seeing someone for a couple months virtually. I have never felt such a rapid connection with a woman in my life. We went from 0-100 really quick! The connection was undeniable. It had been forever since I've felt like this about anybody! I thought she was "the one" on more than one...

Hi all. I have a question, and something to share. First off, someone else linked a page from this website in another post. It's a great site with a lot of relevent and useful information, I thought it should be reposted so here it is. https://www.menshealthhandbook.org/prostatic-congestion...

** TRIGGER WARNING ** I just signed up five minutes ago. I don't know if I'm allowed to post stuff here or not. I didn't read over all the rules or even go looking for them. I'll just assume if this is inappropriate someone will just delete it. I need to get my story out there. FEMALE WITH A...

There will be people in life who will reject you.⁠ You won't like it.⁠ You'll feel hurt or embarrassed or angry.⁠ It's ok.⁠ It's natural and healthy to feel this way.⁠ But it's worth it to risk the rejection anyway.⁠ Risking "not being liked" is necessary to have the life you'll want.⁠ It's...

Buonasera to you all guys Something strange is happening: since one or two weeks, when i relapse I get after about 10 minutes chest pains and it becomes hard to breathe. It happened all time (4) when i relapsed this year. I am really worried about this because it never happened to me. I...

Had terrible leg cramps last night in both legs mostly in the thigh area. Let me explain. I haven't ran for a few days so i went for an afternoon run. It was pretty cold outside but the sun was out so i ran shirtless with some shorts. Ran about an hour. When in got home i took a hot shower...

I always took a hot shower, sometimes in the past I took a cold shower for a few weeks, I didn't feel any damage. but now I'm back to taking a cold shower, and instead of adapting to the temperature with the passing of the days it's just getting more and more difficult to take a cold shower...

I I have never been someone who is comfortable with sharing what I've been through but seeing as how no one here knows who I am I take comfort in that anonymity. I have been heavily addicted to porn for years... I was also sexually, verbally and physically abused by my father. Masturbation...

What is this? Everytime I get into a streak my dick starts feeling incredibly cold and I get this constant burning sensation in my shaft and I start having to pee more often. It makes me worry.

Hi, I put this thread into the problematic sex forum yesterday but of course it equally fits here so I hope you will forgive my repetition. I've summarised everything I wrote so far below, any comments would be very gratefully received. I basically wonder who has tried hypnosis as a way to help...

Hi all, I've never actually contributed to this forum before but the more I have read, the more I see the same issues coming up over and over again to do with shame, guilt, powerlessness, anger, frustration and so on and so on. So many people looking for solutions to fix their symptom, but the...

Hello. Day 60 almost. 60 days of not touching my self. This never happened in my life since being a kid. I let that sink in for a moment.... Now, I am truly convinced PMO withdrawal is real. I get pain all over my body for the last three days that starts from the afternoon. I also get sleepy...

Hello, I have failed many times before this. But this time it's different or I didn't notice earlier. I have a friend to whom I like to talk but to be 2nd or 3rd on her list rips my heart apart. From , the last 10 days my emotions are at peak. The pain in the heart is not bearable. Can anyone...

anyone notice undigested vegetables in your stools after masturbating, edging or engaging in pmo activities? I have, this only seems to happen after i pmo. does anybody have similar experience?

Man I've been doing this for 15 days now, and I can safely say that I'm a mess. The sadness my being has to endour, feels ever-lasting. How long must I feel like this? It's as if I'm on a boat in the middle of a storm, the waves are crushing in, as I try to withhold the balance of my boat. For...

Picture yourself sitting at an empty table. Now add a good friend, real or imagined, sitting by your side. Maybe add one or two more. Guys you know and trust. You just know they care about you, want you to be happy, competent and strong. They accept you the way you are with your quirks and...

Yes, obviously it was so challenging in the beginning to figure out how to get rid of porn, I had used various site blockers yet not useful.. after started journaling, now I`m ale to keep up accountability with my thoughts, impulsion, fear e.t.c.. so It`s been 4 months quiting masturbation and...

Hey guys, It's been 6 days since I last masturbated. I took this decision after I realized I've been excessively masturbating like 3-4 times a day, sometimes without any purpose. I just reach out to my D and start doing it. I realized this is making me go down. I felt useless. Hence the...

I apologize in advance because I didn't find a category for relationship advice, so I figured this was the closes thing. I will be telling the story of me and my present girlfriend (without any triggers) in order to give context for my question. It all started during the fateful...

I am currently rebooting and I’m on day 7. However, I’ve been trying to reboot starting from mid-December last year but I’ve relapsed time and time. What I’ve noticed (and what I’ve been experiencing the last few days) is that during my first couple of weeks after a relapse I occasionally feel a...

Hi fapstronauts, I have been watching porn for 6 years till now. I'm new to nofap. I tried lots of times to control my urge towards porn. Maximum I controlled for two months. If I have any urge or mood swings while watching TV or while using phone at that time i controlled it for that moment...

I still remember how smart I was when I was in fourth grade. Although I came from a lower middle class family, I still managed to get the best out of my crappy school books. I was quite good in grasping the intricate concepts of relativity and was good in studies. I was always that genius kid...

Hey guys, so I was thinking to do Nofap to its higher level of difficulty. But,.. can you guys explain to me what is nofap hardmode and the requirements to do it? Because the harder it is, the more worth it. (btw english is not my native language)

Dear brothers, It is becoming really necessary to me to tell what it has been happening during the las 30 days. Probably the most intense 30 days in my whole existence. When l used to think about a short period of time in the past l was quite oblivious about the events and facts, everything was...

5 days ago, I relapsed again. And you can believe or not: I never felt worse before in my entire life. On 26th April, I swore to me that I will never never never do it again, because now I know exactly that masturbation not my world (Note: I‘m asexual). It went all well, but 35 days later, I...

Hello Nofappers, First I want to say, if you are a person who blames his mistakes/responsibilities to porn or whatever the fuck you blame into, get the hell outta here. Ok I believe now we are clear, So you are sitting in your chair, trying to accomplish something(saying no to porn in this case)...

Hi, I turned 18 recently and wanted to stop my porn addiction, it was destroying me and my mind. I have been addicted since age 13 roughly, so 5 years of addiction. I have bad anxiety, depression and low confidence and I believe that's mostly because of porn. I have never posted anything like...

Hi, I'm new to this site and even though I knew about the NoFap for a long time now, I've never really felt the need to quit masturbating, up until now. I'm 22 and uncircumcised. I've always been a horny bastard, masturbating 2-3 times a day, constantly watching porn etc. Being the...

I've been working through a relationship with sex for several years now. My purpose is as follows: Teach, write and raise a family. I want to empower others into deep purpose and openness though transcendence of their limits and fears. To overcome the trauma and abuse I faced as a child by...

I`ve been through trouble with lizard for more than a year now!. initially, I hate looking into a lizard (It`s skin, texture, color) looks gross!. Though I managed to overcome a fear of lizards, now I`m able to even closely look at lizards. now the problem is I used to hear the sound of lizard...

They say the first step to getting rid of a problem is to recognize it. I have been trying Nofap for over a year now. The longest streak I got to was 8 weeks but for the last 2 months I have gone back to once or even twice a day. I have tried everything to quit. Internet filters, journals...

About two weeks' ago I admitted to myself openly and spoke out the words that I had a sexual problem. I was addicted to sex. Not only sex was I addicted to, but also po*nography. I understood why I was reacting in the ways that I was. I have experienced a lot of relationship issues from the past...

There are dark circles under my eyes. My neck and shoulders are so tense they feel like they're going to snap. My thoughts are racing. People say I look depressed. This Reboot is hell. I just hope these things end. Are these symptoms normal? Does anybody else feel anything relatable?

Okay so first off I want to say that my experience with Nofap has been very positive and constructive all around. I just want to thank everyone for doing an awesome job supporting each other and giving helpful advice and for being equally willing to ask for help. Experience seems to flow freely...

I am currently on day 8- the first few days were totally fine, no big temptations or issues. This morning I looked downstairs for the first time in a while and noticed my testis are much larger than usual. During class I had a small fantasy, after which ever since I have had semen flowing even...

So here is my story. Hardcore PMO addict for over 20 years. That's right. Do you have any idea how much time we used to burn when AOL was still around. Started trying to get clean about 3 years ago. Had symptoms for at least the last 15 years. Everything anyone has ever described and more...

I tried to explain to my boyfriend how much porn hurts me, how I see it as a form of cheating. I’ve tried to be as nice as possible about it, but he says that there’s nothing wrong with it and ‘like all men do it’. Other times he says it means ‘nothing’ to him. If it means nothing to him, why...

I believe it has ruined my life...I have no friends...NO Job.. Its been 2 years I am graduated from my university (also faced great great difficulty in completing my studies)..and unable to secure job. Got scare because of the interviews \ insult... unable to focus on anything. Unable to sleep...

I have been struggling with a porn addiction for 2 1/2 years now. I was taught to masterbate at 10 years old. I began using porn at 12. Whatever I could get my hands on. At first it was just lingerie mags, then once we had internet I would print off nude photos and hide them in my closet to...

Here is my personal guide, that I have used and are still using to recover and develop myself into the person I know I am and can be. I will most likely be posting more in this cathegory; 1. Watch the ‘movie’ “E-motion” - it will change your life. Big words, I know. Everyone I’ve shows this...

Hi guys, I've been masturbating for around 5 years and atleast twice daily. Currently, I'm 18 and my knees and back hurt like hell. I'm considering taking Calcium supplements. Does anybody have any experience with this and can tell me which one I should take and how many MGs? Thank you soo...

I'm entering my 5th day and the head of my thing is swollen idk this has happened 3 times in the last 3 days, but why could this be? I thought it might be because I've been getting erections more and obv I've been abstaining, there is some pain because it feels a lot like inflammation Any ideas?

I noticed it first a few months ago, during my failed 2nd attempt relapse. I masturbated twice that day, and both times while ejaculating, and for a while after I ejaculated, I felt like a burning or stinging sensation in the tube that cum shoots out of, and all around the groin area as well...

Hello Friends...I started to read about NoFap on Nov 2016. Started doing NoFap from 2017 without joining this site. Had many 10-14 days streaks till June 2017 when i thought of making an account on NoFap. I made an account on NoFap and still had some 10-15 days streak but never succeeded in...

Dear all, I said to myself I would stop watching porn a week ago as an experiment. I challenged my best friend to join me and he refused (!)... and yesterday, guess what, discovered NoFap! I am so glad you all exist. I thought I was weird and alone to experiment with ditching porn. I realized it...

Hi everyone, I just signed up to this reddit in order to share my experience. This will be half a share of my toughts and half the description of my story. Honestly I just need a space where to share my pain. It will be a wall of text, I wonder if someone will ever read it. Starting from my...

I don't know how or where to start. I'm in a low place. My husband of 9.5 years is a porn addict. We've been together for 14 years. I hate this roller coaster ride. I've been so desperate to find people who understand what I'm going through. Who can tell me what's normal and what's not...

Hi fellow Fabstronauts, has anyone experienced pain in groin area during your reboot? I've been in hard mode for 175 day, including no sex and I'm experiencing tension and pain in my right groin last couple of days. Should I stop practicing hard mode? Have you experienced anything similar? how...

I am one of these extreme cases... Even on my first few days you will find me on the bed moving around in pain. Headaches, my mind flying off everywhere, porn stars names coming up on my mind, browsing through porn scenes in my head, unable to focus on anything, unable to talk to others, unable...

I'm currently 17 doing Hard Mode. I relapsed, and like most other times it sucks. I go into a raw state where I am aware of every imperfection in my life. It's like someone's ripped the glasses off my face and I can see all my problems clearly. My mind frantically searching for a way to deal...

as i do this crazy journey i realize so much of my addiction is from anger! specifically anger from mom--mom being too intrusive (and not encouraging self-independence ) and/or being extremely clinging so that i would never leave her-- it left me feeling extremely conflicted and i never had a...

After 8 months of abstinence, after 8 months thinking that porn/masturbation was something from the past, I fell in that whole again.Words can't describe how I feel.In fact, I feel even WORSE than before I started nofap 8 months ago.My productivity is gone, my self-esteem is gone, my chick...

So I’m on day 39 hard mode and since about the first week I’ve been having horrible withdrawals. These include but are not limited to: Extreme anxiety Intense panic Depression Lethargy Aching muscles Lower back pain Dull headaches Brain fog Random eyelid twitches Zero motivation Loneliness but...

Yesterday i took the "Beck Depression Inventory". It is a self-rating test for depression consisting in 21 items which ask you to evaluate your state of being, thoughts and emotions which occured during the past two weeks. I scored 33, which is in the spectrum of "Severe depression". Even if it...

Hi fellow fapstronauts, I'd like to ask you if you have experienced and how you resolve feeling of guilt during your reboot. I've met with my old college mate today. She has a lot of things going on in life, nice partner, career in law, great social life... I couldn't help myself but to become...

I feel shitty physically and psychologically most of time during reboot, being 108 days in hard mode now :( I exercise, eat properly, even sleep enough lately and for some unknown reason still have zero energy and chronical body pains, especially in joints. I'm like a zombie, when I wake up in...

Hi, I don't know how to start my story and I hope I will be able to find some help here. Since one year, I have extreme pain, in the back and front of my abdomen and pelvis. I masturbated a lot lot of time since 2011, before I was also masturbating, but I didn't had too much time because I was...

Hey everyone, just came out of a crazy couple of few days. New to the community and started my journey to change my life around 10 days ago. I just wanted to tell you guys how i overcame one of my biggest living nightmares. i was suppose to be on chill spring break for 10 days with family but my...

Hi, I'm 26 years old and have been watching porn for 13 years. I learned that I'm addicted when I first tried to quit/take a long break about 3 years ago and noticed that I have a hard time doing so. By now I've probably tried a dozen times. In the past 2 years I got into femdom hypnosis videos...

Hey all. I'm new to this site, but definitely not new to the act of masturbation. I can't put it into words, but I no doubt have a problem, and have no idea how to fix it. Sure, the "easy option," would be to just STOP, but it's obviously not as easy as that. I'm addicted to camgirls, and...

What do you do when you feel like relapsing due to emotional pain? For me PMO has been a way to forget about pain in my life.

Hi everyone. I'm so glad that I found this forum. It makes me feel a little less alone. Everyday my heart breaks a little bit more. I don't know what to do. If anyone can offer me any advice (especially the men) I'd really appreciate it. It's a bit of a long story.. but I will try and keep it...

Hello everyone, I'm new here and first of all i want to introduce my self briefly. I'm 25, and for almost two years i've been masturbating once a day. Yes, as i remember i stopped from time to time, but it was never more than one week. I've never felt guilty till i started realizing this past 6...

Hello NoFap Community - this will be my first post. I see so many records of people doing weeks / months / even years PMO free, so maybe this doesn't mean much to inspire others. I'm really doing this for myself, to reflect and write down what I feel so proud of and to continue to motivate...

After a series of very big fights (yes I am partly to blame for them) with my wife who is ending our relationship as she says she no longer loves me, I am left with a dangerous sense of worthlessness. I have been called lots of things by her because of my actions in the past and they are being...

So this is my first time attempting NPMO. I usually pmo'ed atleast 3x a week. Now im on 12th day and i feel as if may balls are being squeezed. This happened on 10th day too. At both days i saw sexually arouzing women at the mall and i got very horny for rest of day. It's hard to fall sleep and...

Hello everyone. Just thought I'd share. This is a long story, sorry. About two years ago I started seeing a girl who I'd known since I was thirteen years old (22 now). We always liked each other but I never let it get beyond just being friends, she's been through a lot of bad stuff and I didn't...

It's been almost 9 days of no PMO. But from a day, my groin is hurting. Not the testicles but I feel some very weird pressure at the perineum. Sometimes, constant need to urinate but I only pass a little Are there common withdrawal symptoms? Are there more? Any suggestions to control this(Cus...

Spent some time this morning cleaning porn from the computer and phone. I haven't had any temptation to watch porn this week, so I figured I'd wait a few days until I had plenty of time and was in a good place in my head before starting the cleanup. I have to say, it was really hard. Something...

I think this needed to be shared. And it also applies to all parts of life as well as NoFap.

Hello everyone Could someone tell me if when you press on the PC muscle in a flaccid state you can carry blood to your penis, do you feel as if your glans will fill with blood? Something like a kegel? My case is that I can not carry that blood to the penis and I remember that before I could do...

I saw a therapist this morning and we had an important conversation (despite the fact that I wanted to fuck her- I am really horny some days and I find it difficult to talk to women when that's what's in my mind. I also wonder if this kind of thing is a healthy or a more pornographic or...

Hi everyone! I wish to remain anonymous but at the same time, I've got to share my story with you guys out there. I started masturbating when I was hardly 7 yrs old! I remember, I never masturbated with my hands until I turned 13 rather I used to press my privates against a bed or a wall! I had...

Hi all, I honestly do not know how should i introduce myself. I started watching porn at the age of 11 year 2003. There are many reasons why i kept on watching porn till 2017. Abuse from women, molestation, rape, parental abuse, no friends. Porn was the only thing that made me feel good and i...
