Hello everyone.
I'm a 17 year old boy, going on 18, and I am currently trying wrestling with a couple different issues from porn, fetishism/kinks, and the dualities in my life caused by them.
I started masturbating when I was around 5 or so, and masturbated every night up until last year. This...

I'm doing a pushup challenge for self-improvement that will hopefully later on lead me to do cardio and heart healthy exercises, using the momentum I gain from this challenge. I will start by doing 15 assisted pushups every day for a week, and then the next week 20, and then 25, and then all the...
WITH making NoFap a lifestyle choice for nearly a year now as I write this. It’s been a great background catalyst in improving me and my life. Dealing with triggers, urges and relapses have been real learning curves for me. But tackling and overcoming my addiction to porn has made a bigger...
Hey guys, I have been writing some threads that a lot are finding useful, and I really want to post this because it's something that makes me so mad which is the phrase: "Nice guys finish last". You can check other posts here:

11 WEEKS into NoFap (Day 78). I’ve got myself into the routine of doing things more often. Once a week, I do some voluntary work. Everyday, I walk my dog for two or three miles, read a book, write in my journal and have a cold bath. Once or twice a week, I usually pop out to a coffee shop. To...

Bit o' background first. This has been my longest streak so far. My previous record was a month. But that was a few relapses ago. My last streak was like a week long. After that I decided to get proper serious about NoFap and treat PMO addiction like a real addiction.
So I've come across a...
Have been in and out of NoFap for last 5 years. I'm into all forms of self improvement, NoFap being one. A nofap accountability partner who can make phone/skype CALLS to each other, challenge each and share tips would be great. I've studied evolutionary biology+psychology and addiction so I'd...

hello! everyone, I am 26 year old man, I've been addicted to porn(one led to the other) as long as I can remember. But this girl came in my life just 2 months and changed everything and I have told her everything about me to her. There was a point where i had sex with...

ONE of my self-improvements, is looking at spending more time with people that make a positive influence on me. Those that inspire (and can also help me) on making me a person. Motivated and more focused on self-improvements, reaching and achieving goals I’ve set myself to do.

Hi fellow fapstronauts,
I think it is fair to say that most of us agree on the benefits of cold showers.
It'll be great if you can share your beneficial experiences with it, and also, how do you incorporate cold showers into your daily routine?
I usually take it in the morning as a part of my...
Hey fellow self-improvers. I haven't been on the site for a while, and wanted to post an update on what I've learned over these last four months or so since beginning Nofap.
Let me begin by saying that my counter at approx 130 days comes with an asterisk. I've glanced at porn three times since...
First of all you have to develop your self confidence by estimating yourself because self confidence is the first step toward developing all area of your life and without it you can't do anything you just stay in an infinite circle of ideas and thoughts.So how to develop self esteem and...
NoFap is definitely a process that takes strong determination and insane willpower. I achieved 90 days last year but ended up relapsing at that 90 day mark. What was it to? Some model on Instagram. I'm currently on NoFap.
I believe that social media has a direct impact on why many Fapstronauts...
I am officially starting NoFap on Monday the 6th of November. New week fresh start. My goal is to achieve 60 days. My streaks usually vary between 5 days to 2 weeks but I have never gone further than that as intense urges always lead me to relapse. This time I want to start strong and actually...

I sometimes do this. I know it's wrong and I shouldn't do it, but sometimes I look down on other people. I sometimes think I'm better than other because of their lack of education or the way they look. I want to stop this way of thinking but how do I go about it? Any ideas?
Hey, so I'm 17, currently weigh 52kg and I'm borderline 2D I'm so skinny. I don't have any problems with these facts, however now that I'm PMO free id love to spend the time I now have on self-improvement. Ive tried gym and frankly hated it. I've come across calisthenics and believe that is the...

Yesterday, I meditated to these four healing vibrations for addiction healing, genital healing, male energy healing, and male confidence.
And those frequencies have helped me a lot. They've reduced my urges, they've made me have low libido, they've made me have more strong and natural...
A while back, I used to not be interested in the idea of sex. I used to also get annoyed when people talk about how good it feels to them. Today, all of a sudden, I'm actually interested in sex [when the time is right]. I don't know if it's because of the reboot (even though I'm only on my first...

Hi,
I am a 26 yo addicted to P and M since the last 10 years or so. I have wasted countless hours in this addiction and have wasted my energy that could have been otherwise used for my own good. These days, I feel less energetic, focused and my will power has gone for a toll. I have also been...
I'm on my fifth day of no PMO, and I would sleep meditate for approximately 18-20 minutes a night. Ever since, I feel a pulse in my head, which is a great indication that sleep meditating, and listening to certain vibratons, is helping my third eye. Any thoughts?

Before I joined this site, I always viewed porn addiction in a very singular sort of way. I thought that I was the only person around me to be dealing with the sort of thing. But then again, I guess it's the type of thing where I was always afraid/hesitant to discuss it out in the open with...

I've just finished book "The Power of Habit" by Charles Duhigg. And I reccomend you to read it as soon as possible.

My new goal is 365 days PMO free.
The one exception is if my wife initiates or is interested in sex. This is a serious long shot as a brief hug is the best I can hope for at the moment.
I realize this is a huge jump from my original goal of a 90 day reboot, but in my clearest moments I have...
Like the title says, I don't really have any of the problems fellow fapstronauts seem to share.
Most individuals drawn towards nofap seemed to have suffered from several of the following ailments:
1. PIED
2. Social anxiety/ alienation from friends and family
3. Financial duress due to...
The goal of this challenge is to do just one new thing per day, which can bring a positive change in your life!

Okay, so I've been taking cold showers for sometime now and I will admit that while they are hard to do they are worth it.
I actually took one this morning and I felt fucking amazing. So much better than fapping.
Okay guys, time for a little story which I think is very important.
So listen up!

Hey everyone! This is my first post ever on this forum since I started on the nofap journey.

Hey fapstronauts. New around here. Long story short I felt like crap for 4 years until I rebooted at the age of 21. Life has never been same since. I've been into the self-improvement scene for 3 years after picking up a book and came to learn the importance of developing habits.

I've lived with this decade old, personal addiction for a very long time now. Too long.

Hey gents,

It's day 8 and I figure I should start my journal. My unhealthy relationship with porn dates back to when I was 12/13 - so about 5/6 years ago; after being introduced by a cousin when he was joking about it. Initially, it was an everyday thing, as a young boy I found it amusing actually, it was...

Any tips on how to limit my time on social media. I find its become a major trigger for PMO in my life and I want to cut down on my time spent on it. Both for phone and CPU. I run IOS also if that makes a difference. Thanks all in advance!!! :)
Of course everyone wants to get fit for the new Year and I have a challenge just for that. The aim of this challenge is, whenever the urge builds up, you simply complete 10-20 push-ups then go on with your day. That way you'll get some physical gains too ahaha. Who's with me?
