You have to realise that libido and dopamine is very different because by watching too many porn of a kind you and many of us have watched, your dopamine receptors has gone to the roof, but your libido is on the same level, and that is very boring, you need a lot of time when the levels of those two become equal. Normal sex will never hit you hard as some porn genres but that is the beauty of life. Your expectations should become much much lower

Wow great post! So much truth right here! I can relate so much to your story. You should write a book, i would definetley buy it! Thank you for your story.
wish i could find this website last year. This year is my secondary school government exam . i had anxiety since last year. I dont know whats the reason. I used to be a top student in my school , every teachers and students like me. i was feeling very stressful and my friend tell me to masturbate because it can release stress. After that , i get anxiety and i meet psychiatrist for months. My result dropped very hard. Nothing is improving. im feeling hopeless and next week is my government exam. i didnt study anything because i thought my anxiety come from studying so i decided to play video game every day. Until this week i found nofap , i know the true reason of my anxiety. i know i cant score straight A in my exam , but hopefully at least i can go to college or get a scholarship ( if i can )
Yo bro id love it if you answerd. But ive been going through HOCD (Check my account to see my "Story") and its been litteral hell, constant doubt and pure anger. Its making me so confused with who i am and i dont know what sexuality i am really anymore. All i know is that before HOCD ive always been straight and ive loved girls since day 1. My question is will not fapping help a bit or a lot??

Yes. Nofap will help you a lot! I'd say no masturbation as well. Also I'd recommend you to go see a psychotherapist who treats HOCD by using CBT method. There's no shame using a professional guide. I Did it.
Whoa, such a detailed explanation. If people can take about 5-10 minutes and read it, it tells about everything from triggers to solution. Congrats on coming out of it!!!!
Absolutely amazing story mate, very good arguments raised and i agree with you 100%. Thanks so much for putting in the time effort and courage to make this. P.s. your english was amazing.
Thanks for taking the time to write this out, hope that your journey is still on the destination you've hoped for. This has meant a lot to me on my new journey, thanks very much, very well written.
i gave up porn a week ago and getting morning wood already. Im not gay but does this mean its slightly fading
Congratulations on your first week. There will be many ups and downs in your path. Just continue your strike. One day without porn means one day of freedom.
Thanks, I still need to talk with my wife about this ,soI can have some accountability, but afraid of opening old wounds. I know it would make her so happy if I quit, but also afraid of letting her down and myself.
Hey mate, you can't let her down if you relapse. You can only let her down if you quit fighting. Talk to her, I am sure she will understand. On the other hand, they can't live without us because we are so perfect
Thanks for the uplifting words, worked last night, kinda struggling with this today, now that I'm going to bed. Everyday I do feel an achievement has been made, but this will be a tough week for me. My days off seem somewhat easier because I can spend more time doing what I enjoy ,rather than relaxing to get enough rest for 4 more 12 hour shifts this week
Hey @dr_persistent! It's been 3 years and i'm really interested(And i bet others too) in your situation now. Mind updating us with how things are going for you now ?
@dr_persistent thanks for the great post. How long was ur flatline? I’m about 8-9 months in rn and still flatlining. I’m very depressed suffering from pied
Unfortunately, that everyday loop is sometimes unavoidable. Spending that small amount of free time on porn is just pointless right?
Actually, a week ago when I saw how many people have read my story till today, I was really shocked (positively). I told myself that some update could be of use to comunity and wider. So next time when the weather will be bad, I will update you guys.
