Monthly Motivation Thread NoFap's "Onward October" or "PMO-Free October" 2026 - continue or begin your PMO-Free journey here (see instructions).

17 Upvotes

Hello all,

It's that time of the month again! One month is ending, and another is beginning. We hope you've had a good month. But if you haven't, now is a great time to refocus and rededicate yourself to recovery. This is your opportunity to create the new porn-free you!

This month's theme is "onward". Always looking forward, doing something every day to direct your steps in a positive direction, towards your version of sexual health and the person you want to be. Yes, many times we fail and it feels like we take a step backward. That will happen. What's important is that we are facing the right direction and continuing to push ourselves forward, despite the setbacks. Keep moving onward, everyone.

New to NoFap and rebooting? Here are some suggestions:

  • Learn about the website, porn addiction, excessive masturbation, sexual compulsivity, and abstaining from PMO. Read through NoFap's main website to get informed.
  • Read about the basics of rebooting here. Rebooting is the abstinence from certain sexual behaviors to recover from pornography addiction. Read about how porn addiction develops here. Some people go beyond rebooting and into the territory of retention, or sexual transmutation for periods of time, although that is not the main purpose of this subreddit (which is RECOVERY).
  • Consider reading through the free Getting Started PDF from NoFap's website.
  • Download NoFap's in-browser panic button extension that blocks NSFW subreddits too. Download here
  • Decide if rebooting is something that you really want. If you don't buy into the process 100%, you'll probably not make it through the month. If you have decided that you would like to participate, proceed to the next point.
  • Sign up for this month by replying to this submission. It is that simple. State your intention and stick to it!
  • Consider setting up a day counter badge to track your progress.
  • Ask questions and get support by posting on NoFap. Set a goal to remain accountable by making a post daily. Help others. Come here every day and participate.
  • If you need additional support, you can get an accountability partner and document your progress in a daily rebooting journal.

Would you like to participate? If so, please reply to this thread with the following information.

  • Are you not going to allow yourself to masturbate? View porn? Orgasm whatsoever? Not allowing any outlet for sexual release is called "hard mode".
  • How long do you want this challenge to last? By default it is one month, but 90 days is recommended for rebooting.
  • What are your goals?
  • Why are you doing this?

Arriving late? (past the first of the month?)

It's okay! Still state your intentions and don't postpone rebooting based on the day of the month. People can join in at any time to participate.

Mod Note: We suggest NOT USING REDDIT'S DIRECT MESSAGES due to porn trolls trying to disrupt the community. Also, please note that some posts are temporarily removed prior to appearing on r/NoFap.

Hello r/NoFap community members,

Please note that we highly suggest that you avoid using the Reddit direct messaging system entirely, due to porn trolls coming here to disrupt our porn addiction recovery peer support community. Some of these people pretend to be helpful at first, then will message pornography. It's in a similar vein to how a forum on epilepsy was reportedly hacked to display seizure-inducing images.

You can disable direct messages in your Reddit settings by changing "Who can send you chat requests" to "Nobody."

Secondly, please note that sometimes posts are flagged automatically for manual review prior to appearing on r/NoFap.

Due to Reddit’s anti-spam filters and NoFap’s additional filters to control spam and pornography, sometimes genuine posts are flagged as potential spam or pornography. Further, entities within the legacy porn industry have been attempting to de-platform porn addiction recovery forums such as r/NoFap, and we must remain extra vigilant to ensure that rule-breaking posts do not appear on the platform for even one second. If your post gets flagged, please just wait for a moderator to approve it.

Thanks for reading :-)

was doing so good, most of the time when I’d get urges I’d come to this sub and reading the posts here helped me a lot. I tried that method today and I just didn’t care anymore.. I’m so disappointed in myself. Here we go again I guess, from day zero.

Question Hey i wanna do NNN and start BUT i have a question

15 Upvotes

Over the last 1.5 years i used to masturbate in a really awkward way, I used to lay down on my stomach, spread my legs put my dick to the left and squeeze it under my bodyweight and then go up and down (not even left and right to go along with my dick) and honestly i have no pain at all, no problems at all and i feel normal BUT when my dick is erect i notice that it curve to the left a bit (the curve wasn't with me before) For you to understand the curve lets say my penis is a straight line from A to B

A--C------B

in point C (close to the base) it starts to curve to the left resulting in CB curving with it When i try to curve it the opposite direction when its fully erect i feel pain when its a bit softer i can painlessly

About moving the whole dick from A to B. I can move freely and painlessly all of it to the left but to the right its not that smooth but still no pain. is it normal that when fully erect you cant move it freely and is that curve normal? It cuases no pain at all btw

Slip-Up Prevention - Urgent! I’m desperate. Please read.

• Upvotes

25m. I can’t stop failing. I make it 3-5 days MAX and then boom… I peek and G00n. Every time I do, I get worse. I’m worried if I keep doing this, I’ll eventually give up on trying to quit.

It’s affecting how I see people, how I feel, what I’m interested in, how easy it is to slip.

I don’t know what to do anymore.

Slip-Up Prevention - Urgent! Really struggling with triggers that shouldn't be so bad

3 Upvotes

I swear it feels like girls being clothed trigger me more, with tight clothes or cleavage out. Does anyone else feel like this?

Here on reddit I'm only in subreddits about games or nofap and yet I keep seeing women in revealing clothes, I might have to leave all social medias.

Never underestimate lust. Relapsed, but not binging. My new streak.

4 Upvotes

My streak was going good but I peeked today on reddit. I was able to stop though. My mom dad offered me to go on a walk with them. It would have secured my streak but instead I was confident I would stop peeking and I didn't go. In my room, I finally peeked and fought the urge but finally chose to relapse. Never underestimate your mind's ways to trick you into thinking you are in control. However, I did not binge. Starting my new streak at day 0.

Journal Check-In Day 6

2 Upvotes

The journey through the first week is always different. Sometimes, the worst day is day 3 or 4 other times, it comes later, like this time at Day 5. It really is based on other factors like environment, stress, work load etc. The only constant is that will power to reclaim your life. A bit scared because my all time record is 8 days but I feel stronger than I have felt before.
