porn

Im feeling good and confident and also feeling like im winning the war on porn. Were you guys still having a rough time after +40 days or did you also "cool down"? Because im not that horny or lets say interested in porn like I used to be.

I know about the relationship between porn and dopamine, but what is the relationship between masturbation and dopamine? Can masturbation by itself become a problematic form of dopamine craving / release in the same vein as pornography can?

I've been stuck in a cycle of relapse for weeks now and it's draining me physically and mentally. It seems like everytime I try to stop I realize how isolated and lonely I am and I just can't cope. I know really well what sexting and porn do to me, but I keep choosing it because it's somehow...

I have PIED but every morning I wake up with intense morning wood, which is either caused by me waking up because I dreamt about women or I woke up and immediately started thinking about women because of the morning wood. What happens with my PIED recovery if I don’t watch porn but still...

Hey all, I have just joined this forum. I am glad I can talk openly about my porn and masturbation addiction here among people facing a similar problem. I have been watching porn since the age of 14 (28 right now). I was watching porn and masturbating once everyday. I had never thought something...

Hi I am 38 years old male, I started into porn in age of 18. Unfortunatly lost my one testie in childhood due to injury. In start i was getting turned on by watching foot fetish porn. Later on came in to extreme porn femdom and strapons. I am married but lost my diseare to sex. ED is extreme...

Title. What if I stop watching porn but continue to masturbate using my imagination?

What to do when you've tried everything and nothing worked? It's been many years since I've tried without ever being able to abstain from addiction. I can guarantee that I have tried everything I thought would work and even what would not work and now? What am I supposed to do? I humbly ask...

Gaming and porn (though night and day when it comes to the damage they do to your brain) have similarities. Novelty, fast rewards, ever-increasing challenges that move in lock-step with the size of the rewards are some of them. I have observed two schools of thought. One is that gaming is...

I woke up today and I had this wonderful idea of writing this noir drama detective book set in the 'cyberpunk' future. The book I wrote is a fictional novel and I've wrote 20 pages so far. The story is simple, It's about an undercover detective entering an industrial city set in future (2060)...

Newbie here- not to porn, but to this site. As far as porn, I have watched it all kinds. I am tired of it, I wanted to start 2022 without porn and I failed so here it is 19 days in to the new year. I am ashamed and embarrassed. I have a family, wife & kids. What I do behind closed doors is awful...

Hi, I hope everyone is doing well and i wish every pmo addict to recover, I'm 19 years old, I struggled with Premature Ejaculation since i was 14. It was weird at that time for me because that's when i first time orgasmed in my whole life. I didn't knew what masturbation was at that time as the...

Damn this is a good feeling walking into day 14. Why? Because after this I am in whole new territory. Yes I have been able to develop long streaks 30 plus one 40 plus days but its been well over a year. Let me just say I left my addiction in 2021. 2022 Is going to be the year I defeat this...

It sounds stupid but Im to confused inside of me. Im 20, a Virgin and Im watching porn. Problem is:everytime im getting real intimate with a girl is my dick not realy working. Hes staying low. Its quite frustrating and Im not realy sure why. Even did a testostoron test and im on the fine site...

I have addicted to porn and masturbation addiction since 2009, (almost 12 Years).From last 6 years I am just trying to get out of this habit. But I couldn't do it more than 4/5 days. My life was very beautiful. I was strong and healthy boy in my teen age( today I am 25), But from last...

Hello Fapstronaut, this is Destroyer of PMO. Before you continue, I must warn you that I will be explicit since it is necessary not just for you but for me because I need to get this poison out of my life. I want to help anyone to overcome this addiction. It took me around 2 weeks, so it is...

A stumble May Prevent A Fall I am close to my 1-year NOFAP, SEMEN RETENTION Journey. Thanks to The Lord Almighty and my Guardian Angels. Getting here was not easy. Last year I moved to a place, I rent a portion and I think there was some kind of paranormal force or some very sexual...

I love it when a celebrity speaks out about porn, because people pay attention. It also helps people to understand that it's OK to talk about it. Billie Eilish says porn exposure while young caused nightmares.

Hi Guys, I've seen a few people on here now comment that even looking at porn counts as a relapse. I've just hit over 30days with no orgasming. The thing is part of my job is looking at porn so it's not possible for me to give it up entirely. I'm wondering, as long as I don't orgasm to it...

So I've blocked websites on my internet provider website. But I can access porn through apps. And some sites don't get blocked even when I put them on blocked list. Has anyone any help on how to block apps, websites etc on my android phone? Tia

Okay so I have to make this post because I’m going through a mental storm of negative and confusing thoughts… I started watching P when I was 11 years old (I’m 21 now) and it was ALWAYS vanilla P and pictures of hot women for 8-9 years and then suddenly I started developed a fetish for Blowjob...

So ever since I was 12, I have been addicted to watching Femdom, in the beginning it was nothing special just reverse cowgirl then it got intense eventually getting me into bdsm and then much worse stuff by the time I turned 18, it had destroyed a part of me...it didnt kill me tho. I was like...

Inside Me: I am suffering with my mental issue. The concern is I am losing my ability to focus, commemorate, ability to do critical things. Ability to plan long term goals and execution of short term goal in real time. I am losing my ability to socialize, I am being negative and thinking that I...

Hi there! On my 9th day today and I am totally unfocused. I feel a constant burn on my penis even if I am not hard and I have the urge to touch myself. That was also the case yesterday and the day before (but less intense). But today there is also the urge to watch porn. I didnt have this urge...

It's been a month since I started to try and stop looking at p. My best run was 18 days but I relapse every 8 days or so. Im very depressed I can't find the motivation to study, work or do anything productive. I don't see the point to live anymore. I spend all my days laying in my bed doing...

Well fellas, a couple of weeks ago I failed but only with masturbation without porn but after that, I've been failing I lot. Now, I entered with a solid 7-day streak into No Nut November. I haven't failed since but the reason I'm posting here is to tell you guys what's been driving me to failure...

12ty day today and thought is coming that why am I doing this. Wanting to see porn when I watch a porn star on YouTube. But haven't watched it yet. Confused feeling is coming.

Hey guys! I've been really addicted to porn. Since last years i've tried multiples times to stop watching porn and masturbation but I kept sinking back into it after 1 or 2 weeks. So I decided to take another approach. I complety stop to watch any sexual pictures or videos but I masturbate...

Hey guys, I'm ready to fully quit this but need an accountability partner to basically tell them of why I do this and what I want to do to change. Would be really appreciated!

So today on 4 days complete and urges were coming to watch something like blo*jobs . And in morning was imagining some kissing and all to someone and because of that was getting aroused. But I controlled it as thought also came in mind that why am I doing this let's just watch something like...

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...

Current streak: 543 days no PMO, semen retention Porn addiction is another form of sexual perversion, a distortion of what healthy sexuality is. Basically you are a pervert and your perversion is porn. It looks many men don't recognize they are perverts and simply put all the fault to their...

So yes, I have beaten HOCD. Porn escalation. All that shit. However regular porn and death grip is the final hurdle, and if I can beat HOCD, I can beat this too. I have an issue with my penis that is really messing with my head, and I'm not even sure if it is a huge deal or not. I've death...

Alright so I realized something this past weekend. Well actually a couple of things but we are going to stay on topic today hahaha. I cant fucking play this game anymore. You know the one where you build this really good streak all for it to get crushed and you end up back in the cycle of...

Day 1 Today is the first day where I am determined to leave the PMO habit that has bound me for 10 ++ years. What I realized was that PMO was an "escape route" which became my coping mechanism when faced with the same problem I was facing.. So lets the journey begins! ** Day 1 did other...

I'm not talking about the fear based etiological myth to explain wet dreams. I'm thinking of the more well-known version, the fantasy monster, the D&D encounter you need a Will save to pass. I always thought it should be Int. based instead, I mean come on. You live in a world of gods, dragons...

I was thinking of writing a success story in a few days, as it was going so smooth for me that it was hard to believe even for me. I started my only P streak about 40 days ago, and I almost got rid of it just before today. I never had any thoughts of watching P, and you wouldn't believe that...

Hello, I am on day 10 so far I have PIED When I first started to watch porn I felt it was more stimulating than now I used ejaculate semen a lot and get an instance errection. However, Right now I have to watch certain porn topics to get me more aroused and stimulated so that I can ejaculate a...

I was really curious. I don't have a porn addiction, or a masturbation addiction. I'm quite self-discipline I feel, like I keep my limits (e.g. only watch porn once a week and masturbate only once every two days). I've started wanking off since around March this year, but over the past month...

So, I’m struggling through my reboot phase. Around day 55. Can some explain why is porn bad? I want to show this to myself when I have urges. For me porn is bad because it destroys my self perception on what women should be and it kills my self esteem. Please tell me why porn is bad so I can...

Hello everyone.. I have a disorder or atleast i think i have one.. I feel extremely fatigued everytime, every damn time.. Im not able to do anything.. Not a single damn thing..all i do everyday is watch netflix and eat.. My fatigue is extreme.. Every stride i take feels like a burden, sitting...

NEWS had recently broke out that OnlyFans is banning sexually explicit content – pornography in other words. However, nude images can still be posted on there. But there’s been an uproar from creators on the platform. Because their livelihood is to be put in jeopardy. I don’t particularly care...

Hello, I had 2 Relapses yesterday, but i did not watch porn with it, it was in the evening and i had this stupid Urge, im still learing on Self-Improvement and Nofap, it was a 3 Day Streak.

I'll admit I was one of those people who didn't think this forum was anything worth looking at but I've started to realize a problem and I've accepted that I needed help. About me: mid 20's, watched porn when I hit puberty almost like everyone else around my age group. At first when I got into...

Hi everyone Im just introducing myself here, for anyone who is willing to read this. I am a 20 year old male, about to head into my final year of college next month. i've been using porn since I was probably 13. my porn tastes are quite vanilla and haven't escalated to anything extreme, however...

From i News: 'The 22-year old gunman who killed five people before shooting himself referenced toxic internet ideologies linked to sexual rejection and misogyny in the weeks before the attack. Jake Davison shot and killed two women, two men and a young girl in Keyham, Plymouth, before turning...

I had a porn addiction beginning from the age as early 8 years old, I believe. It was only the late Spring when I had taken the idea of NoFap and abstinence from PMO seriously. Although I was exposed to pornography at a very young age I had discovered that my urges towards imagery are much...

I want to hear your view before I posted my view and I will respond to you and let you know if I agree with you Let's discuss this is a major topic and something that's going on in the world right now

One of the most famous porn sites gets 130 million views per day. That means 47 billion views per year. Let's take into account total world population is 7.9 billion. This site gets 4 billion views per month so in just 2 months it gets the views as if every human being in the planet watched a...

Greetings everyone I have been free from PMO for exactly 91 days now. My objective when I started was to able to watch porn without having to masturbate or have wet dreams. Now that I have completed the reboot, is it safe to return to porn? Thank you

Hello guys I’ve been on a PMO streak for almost a month now. I have been experiencing all the benefits of NoFap and avoiding pmo. However, lately I have been getting intense urges and struggling to manage them. I tend to go running which helps temporarily, but it is still lingering. I am...

Hello everyone, Hope you all are doing well and are fighting the enemy that's inside you. I am now 100% free from all of the negative effects and addiction. I am posting this thread just to help most of the friends who have the problem of going back to PMOing again and again and they have no...

Ok so I've written posts about this before and I'm scared that I might be gay. Long stry short, I used to think I was straight, had crushes on women, dated women but had very little sex, instead I used to watch porn, show myself on cams etc... Eventually I started liking gay porn too, and that...

I'm just asking this, because I ended one last week Wednesday. She basically threw the last straw at me and I have the comment still in my eyes. But what is the point of friendships/relationships? I've been told that they don't last forever. I'm theoretically starting to believe this to be...

I'm battling with a porn and masturbation addiction. I'm making progress, but my mind is messed up. It wasn't like this before watching porn, but now I think about sex and women almost every time. If a woman or girl walks past me, I have to stare at her body and fantasize. I can also just start...

As the title says, there was a time when I recovered from porn and was free. But now, I'm addicted to sex chat. I actually created a account on a sex chat site. I didn't even do that in a porn site. There are all kinds of people in the sex chat site. They're normalising cheating, incest as...

Hello guys, when I started nofap i did not have any urges from the day one till day 22,i was working out daily (weight lifting), have a good sleep pattern and good diet) then i started to have urges and I watched porn for like 2 days (1 to 2-hour session) but did not masturbate, then I decided...

I reached the next level of addiction that probably no one aware of or have seen before. I’m a 22 years old student, geek dude, and data hoarder. I have thousands of terabytes of digital organized content (you heard it right). I’m not here to brag, I achieved that stupid epeen already. I found...

I lost and peeked at porn today but the feeling of me being a total LOSER was so strong it just turned me off and I closed the browser, didn't fap (atleast to the point of being in a stage close to ejaculation). So what now? Now I have a mind full of naked people and I know that if I do nothing...

I have been in a long term relationship with my husband for almost 20 years. There is a big age difference and things don't work the way they used too. I miss being fully intimate and no longer am I satisfied in the way that I used to be. It took me many years to come to terms with my sexuality...

iam 20 and I started researching about nofap, retention, no pmo and about brain on porn last year and i started several times without proper knowledge so i relapse several times due to no reason. its just a try but i started again last week with proper knowledge about how to do it because i...

I'm going to start tomorrow (June 19th) and I need a plan thats slow and easy and doesn't put so much pressure since quitting both porn and masturbating is very hard. As I'm quitting, deleting all my connections to porn. Could I still masturbate to pictures while quitting watching videos? And...

Hi, I'm pretty new to NoFap, but I've been doing a lot of research lately, and something I've become well aware of over the past few weeks is how unhealthy scrolling and scrolling when you watch porn until you find the "perfect video" is, and how it feeds into a person's addiction to novelty...

It was never a dream of mine to become an "expert" on PMO but after years of failed attempts and relapses, I think I have valuable information to share about my recovery. Like many of you, I've tried every possible method ie; hard mode, light mode and everything in-between to combat my...

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...

I am preparing to write a paper on human trafficking and porn. Has anyone seen any formal published data linking the two? I am looking for published works, or opinions from recognized experts or law enforcement. Thanks.

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.

Current streak: 392 days no PMO, semen retention. The easiest way to get rid of PMO or sexual imbalances is outdoor sports and long walks. The energy gets balanced if you do some running every day or some type of physical exercise. Exercise releases dopamine so less need to get it from porn...

Hi, hope I posted in the right section. If not, please correct me. I'm not sure where to begin but I'm gonna do my best to cover most of my story/problem. I'm a confident guy in my early 20s and I think I'm on this mysterious flatline and don't really know what to do. Let's start the story how...

Hey there, I just relapsed this morning when I woke up horny, again. Maybe some of you guys can relate to it... That impulsive doing gave me no time to even think twice. I feel like I have no control over my mind, over my body. I really don't know what drives me to do it. I did not use porn to...

Dear friends, I wanted to share my experience to add another success story to the database. Why? Because reading the success stories helped me tremendously while I was on my recovery path not to indulge my desires and wank :p Sorry for the long post here is a potato? In short, I'm 28 yo gay...

Hi I’m Phil. I’m a 23 year old white American. my pronouns are he/she/they. completely new here. so it’s gonna be a long intro I hope that’s okay. I was in that state which often occurs where I really just wanna watch porn and yet stuck in limbo. Id vs. Superego type shit (if you know any...

I have not met a womanizer that is not crazy and paranoic. Dating and having sex with multiple girls at the same time is a living hell, these guys have no peace of mind, always paranoic and afraid of getting caught. They are so paranoic, for example if one of the girls doesn't answer fast one...

I'm so stressed/depressed at times due to where I live and due to the people around me. I can't leave this location because my Disability prevents me from doing that. And I don't do drugs such as Smoking (of any kind) nor drink. So watching Porn is my Stress Reliever and helps me from not having...

Hi. So I've been trying to overcome my porn addiction the past 5 years. Well I'm doing MUCH better than I was. Gone from twice a day to twice a month or less. Well last year when covid hit, something changed. I became lonely because you couldn't be around anyone because of the virus. Never saw...

So, this might be long. I thank anyone who took the time to read it and especially if you have any good advice on the matter... So this is the first time im doing this online. Trying to open up and be as "exposed" about my issue as possible. I am a 28 year old male. I am a virgin. I grew up in...

Hi, Im rebooting and the reboot process and the fact that my brain is craving to see sexy women or porn and fapping is hurting my girlfriend. She is having really hard time handling all the feelings about this and I feel so bad about this. She knows that Im better everyday and that I really...

What are the harms of masturbating without ejaculation? I saw a YouTube video on taiosm, the guy was saying masturbating without O leads to longer sexual activity with a real women. Will appreciate all your thoughts on this please. Thanks

Counter: 371 days no PMO semen retention There was a point in my journey where simply I made click and after that day PMO, casual sex or choosing the wrong girl was no longer a problem. I can be in front of the most beautiful girl or a cute girl can text me but if she has a low vibration she...

Tomorrow i will be 24 years old. Last 4 years of my life was miserable. I was trying so hard to quit my nicotine and porn addiction but every my attempt ended in a relapse. I would always relapse after 30,40 days... i tried everything but no matter how hard i try no matter what i do or what...

I have been masturbating since I was 15 (I am 22 now). Couple of years back I discovered sites where you can anonymously enter and start jerking off with strangers. I got addicted to that. I started spending a lot of time just on those websites along with gay porn. I strongly believe this is...

Hello Everyone, Sorry for double posting here. My heart is heavy after relapse and I really wanted to reach out to the community about this particular topic. I know not everyone here is a Christian or religious but please feel free to chime in regardless. There is no denying that the benefits...

Right now I don't particularly like or dislike porn, I just prefer doing something else. Why do you like porn so much?

Guys, This porn and masterbation addiction is killing me like anything. I'm try like anything to get rid of this addiction but no use. I'm doing masterbation at least once a day and without it my day won't complete. You can think how much I addicted to it. I just want to end this addiction...

I don't know what else to call it but I am in sort of a lukewarm pmo crisis. I seem to be stuck on one PMO session a day and it doesn't let me build the motivation I need to quit. I'm like an alcoholic who has restricted himself to a glass of wine a day, even though it's bad, my brain thinks...

My first interaction with social media was at the age of about 11 when I saved up some money to buy the cheapest tablet I could get. I found Youtube and was immediately hooked with the concept of it. I would spend hours watching gaming videos than trying then trying to replicate them on my...

Hi fellas :) I'm 23 years old, and today decided to do something with my porn and mastrubation addiction and found out about nofap. i dont have any romantic or sexual experience, and never really brought myself to chat up with girls. i tend to get frightened by this and saying to myself that i...

Many Know PMO Is A Life Destroying Viscious Cycle.. Sometimes Just The PORN Is Enough To Weaken Us, Distort Our Minds, Aggitate Our Feelings, And Keep Us Up For A Few Hours With Unregulated Energy. So, How Do We Fall Asleep And Continue Another Day Without Falling To MASTERBATION Or ORGASM...

Hey. So mid December I discovered my fiancé had spent nearly 2k in under a year on only fans.. (He left his phone on the bed with the private browser open by accident). We had a massive fight, broke up, he begged me back and he agreed to put a stop to it all. To my knowledge he has, his...
