hi, i was wondering if some specialists about addiction could help us. if you have made some research, or learned based on significant amount of different experiences please answer. addiction specialists, or "enlightened addicts" (you have some scientific or even spiritual sources, but please...
I recently experienced my first reset after a four-day streak and experienced my second reset after another four-day streak. Now that I am on my third attempt, I want to gather some information and opinions from other users concerning their first experiences with rebooting through NoFap.
If you...
I have noticed in my own NoFap journey that certain seasons (Summer, Autumn/Fall, Winter, Spring) have been seemingly generally more difficult than others.
I was curious about this, so I made this poll.
To avoid biasing the poll, I will refrain from my own opinions on the matter for the time...
Mini background
Day 11, I can control myself more and started reading books instead of watching porn and masturbating.
Build up to the question
So I was reading “Your Brain on Porn” and there is a chapter called fantasising.
I used to refuse every fantasising and anything sexual, but I...
how is your vision?

Here are polls before July 2022. I did a search for keyword "poll." If anyone know of other ways to find more polls here, then let me know. Polls here only include those with "your vote will be publicly visible." You can still vote on some of these too.
Polls can help us connect, especially for...
I am really just curious about this one guys, just to get a random sample and see your thoughts on this.
Do you think face masks are only temporary? (They first said 2 weeks and now it's almost 2 years) but by temporary I guess 2 more years?
Or do you think humanity will forever wear masks...
Hi I'd like to make a poll to see how many of you use/have used porn blockers and if they are effective. After you vote feel free to add a response as to why they are or aren't effective.
As I already mentioned in my first post - another begins - I have a sneaker and boots fetish.
Recently I watched a picture of boots for about one or two minutes but didn't touched myself or got hard.
So I wanted to hear your opinion - Is watching pictures without any nudity harmless or is it...
Complete the poll above and see what others have to say.
IF YOUR CHOICE ISN'T MENTIONED, PUT IT IN THE COMMENTS
Feel free to add more details in the replies about how it starts and whether you try to stop the urges as well as the success in stopping them
for context, i shall give you my...
Hi fellow Fapstronauts,
I thought it would be interesting to see where majority of forum members stand regarding NoFap commitment. There is no right or wrong answer. All I ask of you is to be honest with yourself when answering:
1. I'm just fooling around (I'm not really addicted, just...
I'd like to do a poll to see how many of you guys use social media. I don't get out a lot and use it as a poor substitute to socialize. Please be honest, there is no judgement here. Feel free to explain your poll choice.
Hi fellow Fapstronauts,
After reading @Di.Do.555's success story I turn heads now I thought it would be interesting to know what are your experiences with how hardmode has effected your sexual attractiveness.
Is it just a self delusional myth or a real deal? Please take the poll and comment.
I've posted a poll asking what the first kind of pornography the people on here have watched. I strongly suspect that most here started off with softcore pornography, and I'd like to know if I was right.
"Softcore" refers to porn where the "actors" (as they call them) are clothed to any...
Hi fellow Fapstronauts,
It would be interesting to see how bad has your PMO habit become when you decided you need to stop. Please take a poll (chose 2 answers: 1 in each category).
Are there podcasts you guys listen to that help you keep fighting and winning? Which ones are they? Are there ones specifically for guys who are trying not to PMO?
Hi fellow fapstrouants,
I'd like to ask forum members who have been seriously addicted to PMO for a decade or more and have achieved +200 days of abstinence in hard or monk mode how did it influence your:
a) anxiety levels
b) depression
c) fatigue/energy levels
If you've not experienced...
I'm currently one-month on noFap hard mode and from, I would say, 23 days I began to have wet dreams almost every night. I know it's actually normal recovery symptom but anyway it's quite annoying when you have a dream of yourself relapsing then wake up like: 'What that just was!? Did I just...
Hey guys,
I have recently tried to get back into the Wim Hoff Method.
- Check out the video if you haven't heard of it.
I had a bit of success last time, improved mood, breathing, energy ect.
So I was wondering has any of you guys used this method to great effect?
I am asking this because lately I have been feeling less commitment to my partner/girlfriend of 3 years. I am curious if anyone else here as experienced this and if so how did you deal with it. I am also wondering if these feelings went away after successfully going through a reboot.
Hi my fellow dudes (and dudettes). Here is a question i wanted to ask for a really long time. When you realise you have a problem? Why you decided to quit? And did NoFap make you change your mind about P?
I asked because me myself am not sure why i decided to quit. I knew Nofap before i realized...
Okay, so i know this has been done to death on the internet, but im curious to hear some of your opinions. So...who do you think should replace Daniel Craig as James Bond.
Personally i think Aidan Turner from Poldark, and i think its worth noting that i thought of him as a candidate before i...
I feel that if you can't be happy when you've got nobody by your side, you can't stay happy regardless. In other words, staying happy is just a state of mind and one should try to stay happy always. What do you think?
Hello,
I'm 14 days into NoPMO.
I didn't have a wet dream.
I went for 30 days without a wet dream last year.
So I was just curious when you usually have a wet dream?
Please answer the poll if you're male and arround my age (21-40; I'm 28 btw).
Also feel free to discuss how frequently you...
What do y'all think about this?
When there comes a point that NONE of the things you asked for in life pops up EXCESSIVELY, as humans, do y'all think we should just be submissive that nothing will go our way (not just in being addicted to PMO, thus recovering from it) or is it ok for us to...
My journey started off well, but this weekend was a complete relapse. I'm really finding this stuff hard and I feel like shit for failing so soon.
But I'm going to keep trying, I know I can do it even if it takes a few tries, I will be free of porn, wish me luck, again...
I've had success with both methods for different situations.
For me personally, Smoking and Drinking was a habit I could just drop in a heartbeat.
As a recovering addict, Substances on the other hand was something I needed to wean off of over several months.
So Fapstronauts, what in your...
Options explained:
girls: I want to have a girlfriend / wife, and I think NoFap will help me have confidence to move on her.
superpowers: I'm impressed by a successful report of John Whatever and I wish to try to see what benefits lies ahead.
self-improvement: I was in suffering before NoFap...
