    After my longest streak which was 17 days I think, I've been relapsing every 3rd - 5th day.
    There's been some real bad climaxes in my life in the meantime though.
    - Got my biggest rejection ever
    - Huge amount of sleep loss
    - Low bank account
    - Found out my 'best childhood friend' was one fake, fat, lying, disloyal fuck and I don't take shit ~ Fuck'n unbelievable but I had suspicions.:(
    -?(he's also cheating on his gf/fiancée after 3yrs but that's a whole other level of stupidity)

    All this gave me stress and anxiety. The good news and the real REASON I wanna quit PMO is, that I got my biggest chance and my +career is just about to begin for real, and I'd rather die, than lose this chance.
    I can't waste it all, my dreams, family and loved ones, forget about it.

    My attitude during those 17 NoPMO days changed so dramatically and made me realize that everything I ever wanted was now possible.

    I'm writing like I know myself very well, but still, I am addicted.
    I want to stop this binge bullshit and use the energy thru' my passion.

    Keep it up everyone, this ain't easy!!!
    I'll keep visiting this site a hell of a lot more from now on. :cool:

    Sorry to say but NoFap is not the be all end all miracle cure. It's very beneficial to your sexual health, and helps with willpower a bit, but it is not going to raise your bank account, get your friends back, and definitely not going to fix your sleep. (one of the biggest complaints about NoFap is that many people don't fall asleep as easily).

    However, I still see how PMO can help you. It can boost your confidence, which can definitely help for your career. And you are right, you do have a lot more energy with PMO. Try to start with small goals (1 week, then 2 weeks, and so on) and create a journal in the correct age group you are.

    I think that nofap helps mentally. That if you give yourself a belief that If I don't fap I will be "this". I'm sorry I had a childhood friend but we just went our separate ways. Weather it was me outgrowing him or his "lifestyle" differences I wonder. I can't imagine what your going through betrayal always feels bad and when its from someone you trust its a whole new level.

    Just realize its not nofap that gives you strength but you. Its what you do the experiences lifestyle changes and everyday habits that you build that make you. Its what you do that makes you better nofap may help but in the end the choice is yours and yours alone. Sorry you got rejected though its always rough. But the truth is life is tough its fucking hard. Theres nothing else about it. But if you want to get through it you have to find a way because no one's going to give it to you. And as long as you have a will then theres a way. Just don't give up keep trying. Good luck to you

    Thanks for the replies.
    Thing is, I do somehow believe that NoFap (even though it sounds ridiculous as hell) gave me some sort of clarity. My mood got better, I mind was balanced and solutions came to me like nothin. All them fellas I know, all FAP once or twice a day and watch the strangest shit P and they got jobs, education, even gf's (some more than one) and so on...

    But I realized how close my dreams were, that they were within my range.
    It was in that nofap period I even got a chance in my career. But it just don't help when the ent. industry is cold, harsh and extremely unemotional. You always miss your family and feel like crying all the time, even though this is your dream. It's all so glamorous but you're really just a wreck.

    I won't give up.
