Hi there! I am a 23 year old male and I've just started my journey of NoFap. I'm not a porn addict, but I did masturbate almost everyday(I looked at porn once a fortnight maybe, but I fapped to mostly non-porn imagination) and it did have a huge impact on my productivity. I started doing NoFap about a week ago, but I relapsed yesterday after going for 6 days. I loved the energy and confidence I had on the 6th day, but relapsing brought me back to square one. So I googled about ways to prevent any future relapses, that's when I found this great community!. I'm super excited to start my journey on this platform and look forward to going through a successful reboot. Quick question, how long should I aim for initially? Should I aim for some fixed number of days or should I see how long can I go without fapping?
Welcome! Glad you are here. This is highly subjective but lots of science suggest 30 to 90 days for a full reboot. Depends on you sexual health goals. Aiming for a fixed number of days can keep you very motivated. Shooting for as long as you can might teach you some interesting things about your behavior. Ultimately only you can weight the pros and cons.
Thank you so much for the advice!. I like this point that setting a fixed number of days will keep me motivated. So I'm gonna try doing this for 30 days for now. I'll also try to post regular updates here so that I can receive great pieces of advice like this. Thanks again! Cheers!
