strategy

When i get a PMO urge i will now visually imagine and completely focus on how my life will look like 14 Days from now if i dont relapse. i feel very optimistic about this aproach.

I'm not saying you have to do it this way. In fact, one thing I did was dangerous so I'm not recommending it. Just reporting how I finally quit PMO. 1. First I quit porn (From March 2023) How: I allowed myself to masturbate as much as I wanted - no porn though, only imagination. Whenever I...

If the urge to PMO comes up, always ask oneself: "Where is this urge coming from?" Mark calendar every morning for each day PMO did not occur. Notate any day in which PMO does occur. Stay away from triggers during the vulnerable hours (social media, computer, etc.) If invasive thoughts occur...

So I remember reading an article about 3 years ago where someone used their wife to quit porn. It would go something like this: Each week to two weeks you go up a step. Once a day at the most but no more. Do NOT try your hardest to cum, not the objective here. Only enjoy. DO NOT FANTASIZE. Do...

Hey everyone, Haven't been doing that great. I would be lying if I tried to glorify my situation. I am at an all time low, and its all because of my PMO addiction. I have noticed that 90% of my relapsing occurs while I am in bed at night. I have tried several things to shake it: no longer...

Would really appreciate tips on getting through the first few days of PMO streak? I'm in a joint addiction with PMO, TV, video games. All media. I use it as a crutch to not feel pain when things go badly. When I use one, I quickly use all of them. So I'm trying to quit them all at once. I've...

Hey all, I'm on day 6 of a new streak, and I've been thinking about the best way to go about NoFap in terms of dealing with thoughts and urges. I should give some context to my situation: I'm an 18-year-old male. I have been a heavy porn addict for at least 8 years or so; I started when I was...

Hi all! I joined this forum on August of 2015. It's been more than 5 years since I've been here and this community helped me tremendously in my quest to break this addiction! To speak a bit about my past, it would suffice to say that I was addicted to this crap since I was 16. I joined this...

Hello all. I am making this post in order to share my thoughts. Today I relapsed hard again. I find myself feeling weakened by my continual self sabotage. This is due to me having no self control over what I end up watching. Just today I watched a YouTube video containing a cute woman and then I...

I first posted this on an accountability group/sub-forum, sharing my experience with NoFap. Then later I sent this to a few friends of mine who are hoping to overcome PMO. But I thought it would be best to post it here as I feel it would benefit many more fapstronauts. Please ignore the...

I'm an 18yo Male, I've known about NoFap since 2017 but I hadn't taken it seriously. I've been trying to beat my PMO addiction for about a year now(since 1st Jan 2020), turns out it ain't easy. I've watched copious amount of NoFap content on YouTube, have done a lot of research, have educated...

Hello all, Looking for some tips. I've realized that the best way for me to avoid PMO is to be diligent about preventative strategies (things like daily prayer, daily exercise, good sleep, fasting, cold showers, etc.). However, I have yet to find any strategy that has proved successful when...

This is not a thread encouraging anyone currently abstaining from porn to start watching it. This is my opinion about a strategy that might be able to help you reboot again if you end up relapsing, especially if you have a relapse pattern like I did. Every single time when I relapsed in the...

Today is day one, after many relapse during quarantine. This time is different, now i have strategy for journey. Yesterday I spend 2 hours for writing a strategy for first 6 days, flatline and my whole journey. I will write here my progress. Be with me guys!

When you see a girl with a big ole ass, what do you do? Do you get overly stimulated and stare as much as you can? Or do you punish youself, saying "shame on me for noticing"? Both of those reactions are unproductive. First, it's obviously wrong to creep. Do NOT go around with the sole intent...

It has probably been mentioned a couple times, but it never hurts to read it again.. and again! If you have serious PMO-withdrawal-problems and doing it Coldturkey is too difficult - ... Do it step-by-step. That means -> Don't fap for 24 hours and if the urge hits you big time, masturbate (1...

New device new rules I recently got a new phone and decided that it would never display any P ever! This has been a good motivator for me to stay off P on my mobile device. I've had my new phone for almost two months now and it still has never displayed any P at all. If anyone else struggles...

comment if you can it will help me and others to try it out and get new ideas to fight against temptation have a nice day

Hello everyone. I feel like I'm getting to a point where none of my strategies for resisting urges are ultimately working. Here is a list of some things I have tried: Cold showers: they work for a little bit, and then the urges keep coming back. What am I supposed to do, keep taking cold...

hello everyone my name is sumer from india, and as i am here i am here to get out of my addiction porn and masturbation addiction because i know from my deep of my heart this things have ruined my life and i dont want to ruin my future i am trying this from last 2 years but failed because i used...

Wanted to share - I spent a lot of time looking at success stories to keep going, hoping mine can help others This is a long one, labeled the headers in bold below, but the tl dr is: go hard mode at least at first lock down your devices (K9 is a lifesaver) Keep track of your days (dates...

Hey. I found an interesting site pornreboot.com. Does this strategy help?

Hi Everybody, I believe that meditation should be a lifestyle (because it helps with nofap) and not just a challenge. Then why take this challenge??? I believe that this challenge will give you some momentum to continue and make it a lifestyle. I believe the mantra"Small success gives you the...

I have been really busy lately and right now I am on a streak with NoFap as well. Its going really good – I’m at day 8 (my all-time record is only 12 days). I have decided to stay away from any websites I know can have suggestive pictures of nude or half-nude girls. Thus, so far this has worked...

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...

This last week has been really difficult, and I'm interested to hear what you guys do when you feel you're about to relapse. When I'm about to relapse, my brain blocks out all positive thoughts, and no matter how hard I try to remember, I forget all of the reasons to carry on and it's so...

I am thinking of strategy to combat porn addiction. I observe that I do not go to those sites when my drive is low. I wondered if my drive comes in cycles, like women. Is there a way to measure my drive every morning? Can I measure testosterone in my saliva? On a peak day, I can refrain from...

Hi guys, Starting from today i'll keep 3 days of "fasting" :) I'll write here every challenge I face during this 3 days. Does anyone like to join my journey?

Addiction is like a piece of the chain that binds you. In order to win the struggle with your current addiction, you have to work to get rid of the other ones as well. As doing good inspires and pushes you to do more good, so doing bad inspires and pushes you to do more bad. So for example, if...

After relapsing twice this weekend, i have been re-thinking my technique. Back when I was only quitting P, I began to gradually cut it down (I was watching it probably about once every two days at least). I started by going three days, then five days, then a week, then ten days, then two weeks...
