Привет, я на 8 дне воздержания от PMO и уже чувствую себя намного лучше. Это действительно помогает мне с моей апатией и депрессией.
У меня есть други в универе, который значительно более зависим чем я. Он просит чтобы ему дали исследования на эту тему. Может кто с этим помочь? Он не верит в то, что это может помочь

why don't you invite him to come and have a look at the forum? guide him through the success stories thread, he could be amazed with the stories some members write there.

There's lots of research on porn addiction, especially from the perspective of neuroscience. Much of it is helpfully collated by Gary Wilson on his Your Brain on Porn site. (N.B. @farmerjones gave a great summary of this in his two posts here and here).

But as far as I can tell there is zero research about the efficacy of the NoFap reboot process. (I started a thread hoping to garner some research papers here.)

We have a ton of anecdotal evidence (as @Zolo22 suggests just look round here) but no proper scientific research as far as I can tell.
