quitting

I found that boredom + lack of movement always gets me to relapse, what do you struggle the most when it comes to withdrawal from PMO or anything you've tried quitting recently? I believe awareness is the first step to recovery, even if it seems like it's too much

I'm a 15 year old male, and have been addicted to porn for years. I have been trying to quit for over a year now, but nothing has really worked. My longest streak is only 15 days, which feels pitiful compared to some other streaks I've seen on here. In the past few months I haven't even been...

Intro First off, let me get a lot of you to stop reading right here because you're hoping to find a recipe in this post on how to quit porn. I haven't quit. But I have reached a place where porn isn't a problem in my life anymore. By that I mean my sex life is healthy, I have a great...

After having abstained from alcohol for over two weeks, I can only admit how great it feels staying away from this poison. Although, I have never been a large consumer, a few drinks/beers per week have apparently been enough to make me feel like shite, both physically and mentally. From the...

Porn and masturbating is something that I had discovered and have been addicted to at a young age. I masturbate 1-2 times everyday for 10 years and I have never been able to tell anyone about my addiction until I met my girlfriend. I am becoming extremely depressed and fatigued after I...

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...

This is a sad post. But I'm thinking of quitting the nofap community. I've tried this site back since 2018 when I started going to the gym and changing myself. I had a few good streaks some almost two weeks and some that have lasted 20 days almost. Unfortunately all ends well from a bad break...

im on my 180+ streak but for the last 20-ish days, i am thinking about quitting when i first started NoFap, i just did not want to feel ashamed anymore. i was not addicted (fap once a week), i was not antisocial and.... it just was not harmful to me but i wanted to start and now, i just want...

Hello guys, i have been trying to quit porn for 3 months now. in all three months i noticed that i relapse on the 2 week mark. i cant get past 2 weeks. i dont know how it comes i try so hard to not watch or look at anything that relates to porn. but i just cant get through the two week mark. but...

I'm currently swinging between intense cravings and 48 hour flatlines, any thoughts anyone? (on 30 days after NoNut November)

After two unjustified suspensions herein I declare this is going to be my last post in this forum! I am leaving this place for good! I didn't find any help or a place for fair discussion. Here is a very strong lobby for certain agendas and anything that doesn't fit is deleted and its...

Hi, After nearly a thousand attempts and failures, I have realized that I probably do not have enough willpower to quit an addiction. 12 Days now, Goal 90 Days. If I don't see any benefits after succeeding, I'm done with Nofap. Starting Nofap to Pre flatline- Good and bad days( mostly bad...

Porn is an addiction. The studies are clear on the effects of porn on the brain. So if porn is an addiction how can it be stopped? It's simple: the same way people cut out other addictions, getting rid of all the substance and utilizing the buddy system. Ways this can be done are installing porn...

Hi there, I was a professional over masturbator during past 15 years(from 1 or 2 times a day to even 7 or 8 times a day)! As anyone should expect, I faced symptoms and problems caused by over-masturbating; problems such as exhaustion and impotence, memory problem, poor concentration and most...

I am male, 23. I’ve been watching porn since 8th grade, essentially introduced to it by kids my age who thought it was cool. Since then, I’ve watched it at least once a day up to now, save for the occasional day or week where I didn’t or couldn’t. I’ve tried to quit many times physically...

The reason for me writing this post are many but the primary purpose is to show other men who are struggling with their lives that it is possible to do a 180 degree turn in relatively short time. Being on NoFap hard-mode has helped me greatly in this demanding challenge. So these are some of my...

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...

I don’t know where to begin Guys. Let’s go back in time to September 2017. I was depressed, out of shape, miserable. Girlfriend and I broke up. I was fapping 3 times a day even while I was with her. But when we broke up I noticed I wasn’t even getting erections with the porn I was watching. I...

Hello folks. This is my first thread on the forum. I didn't think I would make it up to here. I'm a 24 YO male. I PMOed for 12 years and been trying to quit since the beggining of 2013, when I realized PMO was getting out of hand. At that point of my life, I was home alone too much, with too...

Hello NoFap, in the last few days I've learned that if you fight porn you will LOSE but if you just completely forget about porn altogether and instead work on doing great things you will be successful. You have to treat porn like a crush that just rejected you.... Don't spend time thinking...

I am a porn addict, like many others who are reading this thread. Actually, I stopped watching it for 2 years, from when I was 15 until 17, and now I relapsed for almost a year. Last year, I have been watching it once or twice a week, I felt I wasted a lot of time...but the impulse is difficult...

Hello everyone, So I'm in my longest streak so far, 13 Days, nearly 2 weeks, past week was just great, I've been exercising, meditating, and a little bit of self-care (and of course a lot of sexual thoughts, which I always try to dodge) but out of sudden for the last 2 days I noticed that I've...

I started nofap back in December 2017. I remember before I found out about nofap, I'd take a couple days off or skip a day of fapping, and I'd feel amazing. My life WAS amazing before nofap. Even though I was watching porn, I loved life. I had so much motivation. I enjoyed everything, and I...

I first discovered porn when I was 10 years old. It gave me that shock and thrill that I’m sure many people on this site are familiar with. It was a little disturbing to me, I can vividly remember sitting at my kitchen table eating breakfast with my parents in silence, the images painfully...

Hello guys. I decided to share my story here to express my gratitude for abstaining for 50 days now. I do not consider myself distinctly successful, but I think it belongs here somehow. Trigger warning: I'm not going to describe details about fapping itself, but sometimes I'll describe...

I will masturbate once a week only not porn. What you say? Should I quit or continue?

I need the perspective of others in this topic, as it's a difficult one for me. I'm at a crossroads in my life. I have potential now to achieve everything I ever wanted. But Something is in my way. My reboot is going great, but I have hard decisions to make. The first of which being what to do...

Hey everyone! My name is Andrew and I’m new here! I am addicted to porn, and have been trying to quit for a while now, and have had some success. The problem is that I keep succumbing to my cravings and falling back into the abyss. I want to kick this addiction for good because it’s getting in...

Hi everyone My name is Erik, and I'm a former pornaddict. I quitted porn last year, 27 februari 2017, and I'm currently writing a help your self book, on how to quit a pornaddiction. It's basicly like 12 steps, but for porn instead of alcohol and in consists of many of the methods used by...

For the past 9 years (I’m 22 now) I’ve been watching Porn and masterbating daily, usually once or twice a day. I’ve told myself soooo many times that I would take a break and that “break” would usually last 3-4 days max. I feel like I have no will power, and I’m sick and tired of feeling...

Hey everybody, So... before I start.. yes. The subject and user name is a joke. I want to beat the addiction, not actually beat it haha. Alrighty, little background. I am 20 years-old and I was raised in a very religious family... I first started masturbating at a young age... with the...

So hi everyone. I'm new and on my 8th day of Nofap. I'm a 25 year old virgin. Not successful at all with women. Never had a girlfriend. This is long!!! Well I heard about Nofap last year in November and thought it was BS and didn't think porn use could affect people like that. So I kept jacking...

Introduction Once upon a time, there was a very close person to me who wanted me to help them get over pornography addiction. At the time I wasn't serious and I didn't care much for my addiction. Nonetheless, I spent time trying to figure out how to help them overcome theirs. So I sat and...
