    Maybe I am not worthy

    Today I had a bad relapse after an 8 day streak. It made me think: "What if I am not worthy of a reboot? What if my destiny is to give up or being unable to reach streaks of more than 2 weeks?" First of all I'm removing giving up from the picture. I am never giving up, and I know I have the...

    What are YOUR personal reasons for doing NoFap?

    I feel like if we wrote our reasons down it would be motivating in a way. My reasons to stop PMO'ing are: It takes away from my youth and makes me look older than I actually am. It makes my right arm bigger than my left and embarrass me beyond bear. It fogs up my brain and makes me feel like...
