quit

I'm 14 years old, turning 15 in March. Since 2020, when I was 10, I learned the arts of masturbation. Every day after that, I did it. I was young, so nothing came out Obviously. But when I was about 13, I saw semen. I was really surprised, so I kept doing it more. 5 years have passed, and here I...

Hello guys! I'm 22, posting this to make myself accountable. Porn has been a way for me to escape my deep struggles, to keep myself away from real connection and life enjoyment, so I quit today :) I'm gonna post here every 3-4 days, maybe a week just not to focus on the whole process of quitting...

I'm a 27 year old guy from Brazil. I decided I'm gonna quit porn today. Wish me luck. I never understood why most people think the NoFap is bad. Porn is what's bad for us. It's so stupid to think it's a good idea to spend your time watching sadomasochism on Pornhub and other websites...

So it’s been around 10 days that I’ve started to abstain and before this I have tried to abstain multiple times but I failed miserably in that. But this time I’m feeling a lot better than my previous tries and my urges are very low this time. Now I don’t know what’s happening me to me, but I’m...

I don't know what takes me so long to relate my prolonged cognitive impairments with my porn addiction, but now being read the article about the porn's effects on memory, I know why it had happened. I was trying to remember my last few days, my recent relatively-important activities etc. and...

If I were to sum up his reasons for quitting is that the therapy system is broken. I've talked about therapy abuse in this forum before, but the other side is that there are therapists who truly care for their clients and those who do have to fight the system.

I have been in this for about 20 days or so, but every day I lose control, I am a student and I have these really important exams coming up, but with trying to do nofap at the same time is really hard and it is so hard to concentrate in studying. And the biggest problem is that I cannot try...

We all know that people say you have to go trough a lot of pain, the anxiety, insomnia, the flatlines etc. But is there a proper mindset to quit without going trough all of this? I do not ask this because I'm afraid of pain, but just I don't want to go trough a pain that it is not necessary and...

I am a failure! I can't take the lead of my life. With all the potentials I have, I am a failure. I hate myself, I just want to get rid of this miserable life. No matter how long I hold, or how strong I become, this filthy habit makes its way to me in moments I wonder how did that happen...

Heyya, I am new here! And currently ,I am Dopamine/PMO addict, and only in the age of 16 (started when i was 14) My addiction has been annoying me for a while now, i can't focus on anything i do, without thinking of sex,porn and anything related to that. Lately i was researching a lot about how...

Porn vs. our Goals: as Cognitions It is far easier to conceptualize the things we have experienced than those we have not. Porn surrounds us and is rooted firmly within us - we have all seen it and do not require much effort to form a clear picture of it. We can choose from a number of scenes...

Hello everyone I hope you enjoy your New Years holiday! What activities you do when your new to Nofap and want to quit the porn addiction and masturbation addiction? Who is with me trying to stay away from porn and masturbating addiction since it’s 2021 and want to quit this year if your...

Hello Fapstronauts i heard a Long time ago about this Community. My First thought about this was like omg wtf are they Talking People say masturbating is healthy and i keept going on fapping. But my cousin told me more about this community and i got deeper in here. This is my first thread im...

About the idea: Kill Switch It would be an online service (a "website" if you will) where you can sign up using a username, password, email and phone number. The user dashboard consists of toggles that can be locked for any amount of time, besides the usual fields to change your information...

Hi, i'm 18 years old i've been trying to quit for the last year and a half but i take long breaks between relapses but today i decided to try out the nofap challenge now i'm looking forward to quit masturbation and pornography forever. I want to know if this has any negative effects on my life...

Please forgive me for the eye catching title. This is not a hate post towards NoFap. I believe NoFap is very important for people up to a certain point. After that point the forum becomes counter-productive to reach your goal. To explain what I mean I will expand my understanding of what a porn...

Simple question: why do you want to quit PMO?

I think today is a good day to quit, who is with me?

Hi everyone, I wanted to explain a little bit how my reboot was going. I am on day 26. I have fallen into the flatline since day 0. And I am still in flitline. I have no libido, no energy. I have the motivation, but I lack the energy. I always feel tired. I think it's the effects of the...

Hello guys, So Yes I'm doing it, quitting both cigarettes (day 11), and nofap (today 1 month)... This is not hard as it sound, and it'll be easier if you know that if you give up, your effort will go for nothing... I feel pretty good, a lot of energy, a little depressed but it's the Nictoine...

What do you think how does your brain take this habit of your's healthy or unhealthy ? Main purpose of human is to reproduce and pass on the genes so according to this fact your brain will think that you are doing great in your life and you are doing sex everyday brain don't differentiate...

"It turns out internet porn can mess with your dopamine system, kill motivation AND lead to early erectile dysfunction. Porn desensitizes you to sex. The more porn you watch, the more it will take to get aroused and your brain will become numb to sexual images. The signals of arousal from your...

Hi Guys, I'm relatively new around here I didn't post an intro but thought I should in order to be more involved with the forum. You can find my journal/log following the link below the more people responding and giving constructive criticism r even words of encouragement honestly would mean...

Hello guys My penis is being dead for two days i i usualy masturbate 2-3 times a day Now my penis is feeling dead no movement and my scortum is tight not hanging..... Should i see a medical practioner or will it recover eventually Need help ASAP

THE PORN GODDESS (Of course I wanted to make her very curvy and sexy, but I didn't want to unnecessarily trigger anybody. ;) ) Dear Reader This is an attempt to describe our affliction as clear as I can on a psychological level. I hope that it will help some of you to heal. I am not a...

Just like I said, I've kinda quit smoking... And I say "kinda" because I no longer buy cigarettes and I only smoke while I party wich is only a couple of times a year (yes, that's life when you reach 30's and your friends start to have babies). So that's my way of kinda quiting a bad habit, by...

So... My husband has stopped watching porn. He doesn't think anything is wrong with it and has never hidden it from me. He only hid it on the browser history after I asked him to, years ago when every time I stubbled upon it, felt like a knife. Our sex life is empty. He says that he has low sex...

I JOINED IN REBOOT CAMP YESTERDAY AFTER 4 SETBACKS IN 4 DAYS. PORNOGRAPHY AND MASTURBATION HAS MADE ME SUFFERED PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY. I ABSOLUTELY HATED BEING ADDICTED TO PORN AND SEX. I WANT A NEW LIFE. A LIFE WITHOUT PORN AND SEX ADDICTION. THAT'S WHY I AM HERE: FIGHTING THE PORN AND...

Hi there. I'm a Male living in the UK. I was first exposed to pornography when I was aged 9. By accident. I watched it from the age of 9 a few times a week until by age 11 I was watching it daily. I know this is illegal but sadly it seems to be the new norm. It is awful. Nobody showed me it...

Hello everyone,I'm an 18-year-old still in high school and I feel like introducing myself, or at least (to some extent) engaging with this recently discovered site.Perhaps it'll speed up my recovery process,who knows? Since this week began,I've gone on an actual journey.This time I'm serious...

Hi there I'm 25 and I've been watching porn for over 8 years now. But during past 5 years I've lost much to porn than anything else. I lost my progress in studies, I lost my health, my family interaction, I'm not comfortable with girls, I've been unemployed and seriously under constant state of...

Hey guys. So I posted recently about quitting smoking and how I was planning on this being the next major step to improving my life. I'm a 2 1/2 pack a day smoker so I knew it would be a challenge but damn was it. It started out easy enough - cravings all over the place. I know how to deal with...

No matter the rationalisations used, the unavoidable conclusion is drawn that dating apps in all their variety and variation are crutches to one degree or another. Tinder, Bumble, POF… they all are designed purposely to hook us in, keep us coming back and turn wondrous human beings into...

Hello everyone, I am a 22 y/o, soon to be 23 y/o, university graduate who got his Bachelors of Science in Information Technology. I am currently looking for employment while studying for certifications. Enough of the general stuff though, let's get to why I'm doing NoFap. The reason I am doing...

Hello, I'm a 20 year old university student, gamer, and a sports lover. I always knew NoFap, but I never thought a community like this could do me any favor in quitting watching porn and fapping. I've always thought I can do this myself without anyone's help. Yet, every time I quit, I relapse...

Hi everyone. I have been trying to quit porn for over a year (longest streak 10 days). I had installed web blockers on my computer but I always eventually found a loophole that would allow me to view porn. I like me when I don't use Porn and I generally do feel a whole lot better without it...

Hello, I'm at day 28 in this beautiful journey. I've noticed a lot of improvements in myself lately but I'm not going to talk about how NoFap is making me feel better. I have a girlfriend, we have sex roughly 1 time per week (we don't live togheter and we are not often home alone, plus she...

udemy has one free 'pornography addiction' course. Anyone please, share any informative sites/blog with me. Thank you.

I came across NoFap a year ago and have been trying to keep it up but always relapsed within few days. I've read the side effects of fapping and do agree the outcome is real. I have lost my creativity and brain fog all around, instead of being productive in my free time, I watch and fap. This...

Hi fellow fapstronauts, I've been on this forum for a while and got an impression that most people here does not really want to stop being an addicts. I came to this harsh conclusion after reading so many posts of 1 day, 2 days streaks, relapse, feeling sorry for themselves, asking for help 100...

hey everyone, after years of off and on, and some periods of out of control PMO frequency, I have found NoFap and am deciding to get clean from porn and its grip on my life. I recently started struggling with maintaining arousal while having sex, and I felt ashamed in front of my...

Honestly i just came across this site a couple days ago. I didn’t even know this was a thing until then. I am posting here because i am curious as to what people think about where i am on it. See, i already have been kind of living the NoFap lifestyle before i stumbled upon this site, but for...

Hi, I live in the UK and I am new to this NoFap forum thing, I thought I would write a thread because everytime I read posts I gain more confidence and motivation. Im currently 18 and started watching porn when i was 12, I had tried masturbation at around 11 but never started doing it to porn...

This is day 1 of this account and day 1 of NoFap.

1. For years, I have used P to soothe emotional distress. This is a problem. I "quit" several times with varying degrees of success. But ultimately, I slide back into it when times get tough. Beating this bad habit is essential to my life - physically, mentally, emotionally. 2. Continuing to...

Hello, Been struggling with this problem since I was 12. Got to love middle school lunch room sex ed. Ever since that discussion, it has led me deeper and deeper into addiction and has led me to hurt several people I love the most. Nothing hurts more than seeing the betrayal walk across your...

Commited

Hi Nofappers! So I’m new to NoFap. I’ve reflected on how much PMO has changed my life in a negative way and I want to quit. However, the urge to relapse just grows stronger and strongers as the days go by. Plus, once I get blue balls I know the urge to “empty my tank” will grow stronger. I...

Today I start my journey!!! Let's do this. Aiming for an initial 30 days, and then the sky is the limit. Wish me luck! :D

Time is the currency of life and we're fapping wasting it. So how do we get our time back? We need to change our perception of time. I discovered an inspiring image today which has heightened my perspective on life. We know this in theory, but that's the problem; theory lives in our heads...

I'm grateful for NoFap and have nothing but positive feelings towards it, but today I realised something. I'm beginning to spend more time on here. I don't think that's a bad thing, because we help each other out in our online community. But 'NoFap/no porn' still makes you conscious of fap and...

After one year of trying to quit my addiction, i am making a great progress now. one thing i can't get out of my head tho. does all this worth it ? would it really make me a better person ? is it actually the right thing to do ? what if watching porn and masturbating are just normal things ppl...

I first discovered porn at a young age and it has been the bane of my life ever since. I first noticed a problem when I had my first long term girlfriend around the age of 17. I would struggle to climax in any sexual situation, especially during sex. It took me at least 6 months before I...

I came across the word NoFap about 360 days ago. I had realized about my addiction and registered on this website. However, my motivation did not last for long. I couldn't control myself. I stopped coming back to this website. My addiction continued and I watched porn almost every day and...

Hello everyone: The topic speaks for itself from the thread's name. This is going to be a long introduction because it's a long story that leads to where I am today. I will be turning 25 in early January 2018. I'm about a year and a half removed from graduating college. I have a nice job in...

Hey, Im 35 years old, i live in Sweden. I want to stop watching and jerking of to porn. This is my first day. I feel porn has become a symptom (one of a few) of loneliness and a lack of meaningful relations in my life. Sex, porn and the attention of women has always had sush a huge effect on...

Hi, My Name is Soumyojit Sen. And I want to get rid of this bad habbit. Please help me and let me know how can I get rid of it .

I'm a heterosexual male in my 30's and almost all my life I've been fantasising about a man. That man is me. A dream version of myself. Offline I've felt like a man sometimes, but online I'm definitely a boy. A boy fascinated by sex. Well, it was once sex, but now it's porn. And porn isn't sex...

(First of all, this will be a long post, but it would mean the world if you gave me advice :) ) Guys I'm desperate now. First started quitting porn nearly 2 years ago now, been on NoFap since June, best no PMO streak was 9 days. Quite frankly, that is one shitty achievement, and I'm not proud...

Hello my name is "Marty Bryant". Or is it? Either way that is besides the point. I am 23 years old living in the good ol' sunshine state. Just graduated college and am still undecided on the career path I would like to take. Stuck between medicine and music. With the most freedom and...

A little background info about my past and why I'm taking the plunge to become porn free. At age 7 my little sister and I were sexually abused by my neighbor. My neighbor was 8 years old and I'm assuming she too was sexually abused at some point in her childhood. One day my new neighbor (We'll...

On day number 4, the urges ended up getting the best of me and I just went and masturbated. I'm kinda ashamed at myself because of this. Are there any effective alternatives to suppress the urges completely?

I'm an Aegosexual male on day number 2 of no masurbation. Sometimes, I would look at arousing pictures and or videos of women. My erection would so hard at times, that I would pre-ejaculate myself without evenmasturbation. Does this count as fapping? Would this mess up the Nofap plan?

BEWARE: The first couple of paragraphs contains what might be considered as triggers for some people. So I'm just sat on my sofa partially watching TV, partially browsing NoFap, and I've just seen an advert for a show called 'Make or Break', and I won't go into too much detail of what it...

This seems like the logical place to post this, although it isn't actually a personal success story so it will probably be moved. I'm just wondering, when doing NoFap, is there an end? Is there a time when you no longer think about NoFap and PMO just isn't any part of your life? Or is this a...

Lately on this website I've noticed a lot of people saying 'oh I'm just gonna quit porn, not masturbation' but I can't see the logic. I understand that many people find it easy to quit masturbation, but struggle with quitting porn, but all I think is that surely even with masturbation you will...

Hello friends I'm Kartik 18 yrs old Just injured my knee so doctors suggested for bed rest so hv less options rather than fapping Masterbation addict Really wanna quit masterbating Nationalty : Indian

Hi. I masturbate to much and feel addicted. Nothing I seem to do seems to work. I don't want to get into too much of what I have tried but it hasn't worked and I don't want to keep masturbating. I was hoping for some tips and tricks to help me out. One thing I will say is that I was once an...

Ok, so I'm gonna start by saying that I have never had a decent streak. The longest streak I can remember is *drum roll*.... 8 days. Which is pathetic. But nonetheless I will usually go 5-7 days without PMO or at least P. Lately though (since Friday) i can't make it past 2 days. Friday was my...

I literally just relapsed. I was sat at a table in my home doing some work for a college interview. I had some London Underground (a hobby of mine) videos playing on the TV for some background noise, and suddenly within the space of about 2 minutes, I got the urge to relapse and went through...

Okee dokee, so about 4 hours ago I relapsed after 7 days. Okay, so yes that is bad, but it's my second longest goal and I didn't watch porn with it, so I'm not feeling too bad, if a little depressed at least. I've decided to take a new approach. While I normally stay away from proper porn...

I'm a 20 year old dude who has probably the very same problem that all of you might have: I'm addicted to masturbation and porn. What made me reach this point? I don't know. I'm not a socially awkward, lonely or too ugly person. I can handle myself to get a girl, my problem is I'm too lazy. I...

Hey all, I am new to the website, and the only forums I normally ever post in on the internet are model railway forums, so for my this is unusual, but I have decided to take action on what is getting me down. Be prepared though, this will be quite a lengthy post. I am only 16, and for many...

Hello everyone, I discovered NoFap a few months ago while I was doing some research on Porn Addiction, something I didn't think could be possible before, and I decided to give it a try, just to prove something to myself. It appears that after a month or so (and after experiencing all the...

My name is Mario from Germany. I'm struggling for years to stop PMO. Read a lot of books about it, tried to block porn from my computer etc. I never made it more than a week until I had a relapse. Now this is my last hope to finally quit PMO.

Hi guys, I've started this journey ,it's five days. I wonder to know ,how much was the difference between the first days' feelings(anxiety,depression,social skills, self-esteem,....) and last days in your journey. Is that considerable and perceptible to you? Please explain one of them if...

I finally made it out but plenty of people are still where I was for a long time. Here is my step by step process for how I finally quit. Day One: You have masturbated earlier today, first of all never beat yourself up over a relapse. You feel relaxed but empty and probably a little sad, social...

NO PMO, ONLY SEX! i aint just gonna during 2017, i wanna do for the rest of my life. i've been addicted to PMO for 9 years, and its about time to end this, this addiction killed my sex drive, girls doesnt excited me that much, even when I was licking and touch their pussies, and ive developed...

Hey everyone its Josh. Im 23 years old. So for years now my friends and I would do a NoFap for the year of 2013,2014,ect... and we would fail after a few weeks/days but I'm taking the commitment to heart. I grew up in the church so this is for both religious and personal reasons. I recently...

Well this is it. I just closed out of the last porn tab I will ever watch. Like many of you, I started out watching porn and masturbating at a shockingly young age. I just turned 19 and have finally had it. I'm in a committed sexual relationship, and I realized that it's time to get rid of this...
