"Abstain from PMO" August 2017. Keep on rebooting. Official accountability thread.

Ok i got 7 months Hard mode.. including no dating. But now im on a dating ap and will start dating. In truth i feel im powerless not to, but feel im not ready yet.. but here goes to do it with no Fapping!
 
Sign me up! Several days into a 90 day PM reboot, followed by a lifetime PM goal. This site has been of tremendous help so far. The biggest motivation for me is to be able to look at "attractive" women and see them for who they are and not just see a nice body. To transform my motives so that lust is not even an option anymore but love and respect rules my heart.
What an excellent post, @monkeyboots. May this come to pass and become your daily reality!
 
Another month, July of 2017, has gone by.

Hello and welcome to the official signup thread for "Abstain from PMO" Ausgust 2017!

The purpose of this thread is to provide Rebooters with a place to share their commitment to abstaining from particular sexual behaviors throughout the entire month of August 2017. Although it is strongly recommended to make a public commitment, posting in this thread is not required for participation in a reboot.

New to reboot? Here are some suggestions:
  1. Learn about porn addiction, excessive masturbation, and abstaining from PMO (a process called "reboot" or "rebooting"). Our free Getting Started guide that is advertised everywhere is a great option.
  2. Decide if abstaining from PMO is something that you really want. If you don't buy into the process 100%, you'll probably not make it through the month. If you have decided that you would like to participate, proceed to step three.
  3. Sign up for this month by replying to this thread.
  4. Consider setting up a PMO-tracking day counter to monitor your progress.
  5. Create a Journal Thread and share your progress periodically, preferably on a daily basis. Not only does this help you stay accountable, it documents valuable anecdotal evidence that will ultimately help other people going through similar situations in the future.
  6. Ask questions and get support by posting on NoFap. Help others, too, if you are able to.
  7. Get an accountability partner.
Would you like to participate? If so, please reply to this thread with the following information.
  • Are you not going to allow yourself to masturbate? View porn? Orgasm whatsoever? Not allowing any outlet for sexual release is dubbed "hard mode". For a full list of parameters, see our Rebooting 101 page.
  • How long do you want this challenge to last? By default it is one month, but 90 days is recommended for rebooting. You can't know how long it will take to "rewire" your brain, it widely varies due to individual circumstances. Some people require a year or longer to regain sexual function.
  • What are your goals?
  • Why are you doing this?
Coming in after this month has already started?

Don't panic - it is not a problem. Users sign up for NoFap's events all months long. Just follow the instructions above and jump in at any time by replying to this thread.
I'm in.

Capture the flag with Shia! I'm in.
 
On 2nd streak of normal mode.
I'd also like to join this Accountability Group for the month of August!
Thanks!
 
Sign me up brethren.
I'm going to take on the PM but will let the O happen naturally.
I will never know how far I can climb unless I challenge myself. Glad to be here . LETS DO THIS!!
 
Great timing! I just started my battle two days ago, and August will make 30 days. I'm pumped to finally be free from porn!!

My overall goal is 90 days, but I'm focusing on 30 days. So end of August will be it! No porn. Masturbation ok.

I'm doing this for the woman I love - I hope to marry her one day and I can't stand the though of her dealing with my addiction. I MUST be free before she becomes a permanent part of my life!


Guys let's conquer August! Remember this day - August 2017 is was the month of hell that I went through to be free! It was the first month completely free, and that's when my reboot truly started. May it be so!
 
This gonna be hard but, LET'S DO IT. 90 days without PMO whatsoever. Need to clean this stupid brain out from porn, and perhaps will gain better value in this life.
 
Okay, I'll try and be porn free for August, as my plan is 30 days no porn, and then once I achieve that, I will start working on quitting fapping. I've been trying to quit for a year, and cold turkey has never worked for me. Hopefully I can make some progress now :)
