    Hi,

    I am 5 days clean so far and I haven’t struggled at all. The reason for this is because I work full time as well as playing football and hitting the gym after work. But,the main thing that’s helped is coming on here! Every day I come on here, read other peoples success stories or even try and help other people out because we’re all here for the same reason. You need to think of it as an emergency app, once you get the urge to masturbate or watch porn, loads this up and it will remind you of what you’re working towards.

    Other than that, try and keep busy, meet up with friends and try and be the best version of yourself. You’ll see results, trust me

    I started doing everything that I could like cold showers, meditation twice a day, working out, I deleted all erotic pictures from my gallery apart from my girlfriends which I don’t see at all. Healthy diet and anything to distract myself from m. The urge will slowly go away once you hit flatline. I’m on day 13 right now and wish you all the luck

    I’ve seen significant improvement in my mental health after quitting pmo. I feel more emotions now, good or bad of course. Even I’m in my final year of engineering. Once you quit pmo it will automatically change. It takes 21 days to form a habit remember :)

    Real simple: quit thinking about porn. That’s it. You think about it and it will create urges. You don’t think about it and urges don’t exist. I even look at eye candy from time to time; but when the viewing real life image is gone, I don’t allow myself to think about it anymore; I enjoy the real human while it’s in front of my eyes, and when it’s gone I quit thinking about it or it will lead to relapse. Quit thinking about it. That’s it. Every time you ever relapses is because you thought about it first.

    With all due respect, “luck” is just putting nofap up to chance and will lead to a relapse. Got to do better then luck.

    After a point you’ll end up flatlining and the urges will be zero. Flatline usually occurs at different periods for different people. I flatlined immediately after I started with a super low libido initially but then as I crossed the 4 week mark, my libido sky rocketed. Now I am starting to slightly crave real women more than porn. Think long term and it’ll be easier for you I’m sure.

    I've managed to go 10 days of Nofap but this is still far off where I want achieve in the long run I want to aim for 21 days next time round, the problem is I have so much free time during the day that is inevitable I think about PMO. What can I do to become more productive during my free time which can help me stop thinking about it replies to this I would appreciate it thanks.
