Hello, I want to tell you my story. I'm 25 years old, I have been suffering from PMO addiction from 12 years old, total 13 years, more than half my life. I was very quiet guy, who didn’t like to social with others very much. I have moved county 4 years ago, and in that time I couldn’t make good friends. Moreover, I haven't even asked a girl out on a date ever. That was a little about me before I found NOFAP. When I found nofap I wasn't trying to quit my addiction, I just watched Tedx talk video, and wanted to see the site out of curiosity. When I started to read the forums and the stories of other guys I got very upset and emotional, I found something common to me in every story here, and realized that I’m an addict. That day I decided to quit PMO for 1 year, the next day I thought for myself "what after 1 year I will fap again? No way.", so I decided to quit PMO forever. I had very good motivation to quit PMO, I blamed PMO in a lot of bad thing that I saw in myself. Of course I had trouble on the way to 50+ days of PMO free, but with help of this community I never relapsed. And for last 2 weeks I don’t think about porn and quitting PMO, my life goes forward. I mostly get here now, because I get bored So here the benefits that I feel from quitting PMO: 1) I feel my emotions clearer (before my face could express something, but I felt nothing inside) 2) I like my body (before I hated it, I'm a little chubby, but meanwhile I lost 5kg and not stopping). 3) More social (I like to hang out with anyone now). 4) Better memory. 5) More productive, not because I have more time, because I spent it better and more efficient. 6) Better speaking abilities (still need huge improvement). Those main things that I noticed, but I'm sure I became better in every way since I decided to quit PMO. In summary, I was in very bad place 2 months ago, and now I'm happy. I am thankful to this community for this. I hope my story will help anyone. If anyone has a question, I would be happy to answer it.
Out of curiosity, did you experience positive thinking, a sharp and better mind, confidence in talking to the girls, optimistic mindset and of course physical and mental strength (testosterone)?
Great Job mate!!! Posts like this motivate me so much! I've been addicted for 6 years since I started Nofap I'm fifteen now, turning 16 in september. I still can't believe that I've been doing this since I was nine But now it's time for change!
