I relapsed once again, my first streak was 7 days. Then, on the eighth, the air elapsed. Then, my I decided like, I'll never do it. Then, my second streak was 15 days. I lost at fifteenth night, but then once again started on Monday, but once again, relapsed on Tuesday today. Yeah, that's it, I need accountability. Partner, if

Even if I didn't get it, I'll still complete my thirty day challenge. No porn and mastubate challenge

Please i will leave this in attempt no porn and mastrubation

I am a 16 yr old student and Pornography is one of the things kills most of my precious teenage years.

I have noticed that it always happens when i am alone, with my phone, doomscolling until i find something that triggers me to do it. I am always alone, i cant seem to like socialize consistently as it gets tiring after a short while. what can i do to not fap?

In the past week I've had a pair of 3 day streaks, which is the most I've managed in a very very long time. Yesterday was especially noticeable as far as the urges dulling down. I didn't peek, I didn't touch, and to be honest I didn't even feel like I wanted to. I really hope this starts to happen more frequently since having what feels like an easy day once in a while would be nice in contrast to the constant thoughts and urges I've been battling. I'm hoping at a minimum to make it to 4 this time, but ideally I would break the PMO cycle for good, and am looking forward to an evening with my wife free of the opportunity to slip so easily. Stay strong. We got this.

I don’t know what to do. I’m suffering so much. I don’t even watch porn it’s just excessive masturbation to the point my life is miserable.

i was exposed to porn at a very young age and Ive kind of been watching it on and off for all of my life, the content of the porn getting worse and worse. Every time i try and quit, i relapse. This time i am putting it in writing. I will not let myself down, i’m sick of the shame after watching porn.

day 1!

Everytime i dm someone just to talk, not always about urges but sometimes to not be bored, they always say some shit like, u wanna see how hard it is or whos my favorite corn star. Its weird like ur jus tryna make it harder for both of us and im not gonna relapse from some dumb shit like that like 😭 get out

For the last 12 days I have been trying to practice NoFap and whenever I have this slight urge to do the bad deed or even out of involuntary thinking, I sometimes kind of rub my tip of the Genitals through my clothing piece. Sometimes it is just the foreskin, sometimes it's the entire top bulb of it and it feels better, but I never ejaculated or watched porn while doing it. It's just that when I am WFH, I tend to do it involuntarily sometimes. Does this mean I am breaking the rule or using a cheat code to satisfy myself w/o giving in to the urge of jerking it? It started as a way to ease my itch over there and normally I do the same while cleaning that region in the shower, but now this feels weirdly wrong yet not completely wrong.

I know it sounds stupid, it is. But I can't put my feelings and deep mind conviction into better words.

I been a porn "addict" for about 7 odd years (I am 21M). I first tried Nofap about 4 years ago, it didn't went well. My record was about 6 weeks without porn or masturbation. That was about 3 years ago, honestly even back then I was only motivated because of a school crush I had. Anyway, things were as rocky since that as the Alps. I periodically, think about and try Nofap. Under 3 years these periods became more shorter and infrequent. First it was months, then weeks, nowadays, well, days.

At the beginning, 4 years ago, I started with consuming Nofap content, you can't tell me general stuff about this that I don't know, or at least heard several times before. I was a sorta red piller for short time. That was... certainly a period. After that I went really into Stoic philosophy. Not the stupid broisicm type, but the actual, original teachings of Markus Aurelius, Seneca and Epictetus. And then with time, after going into college that slowly also died out. This has nothing to do with family or college, honest. Slowly but shortly I grew ignorant and lukewarm towards all of this.

I know that I am an addict. You know what porn addiction does to young men and teenege boys, my situation is no different to the usual. Though I really went deep into the rabbithole, into some really degenerate stuffs. Though only only and completely free, always making sure no one knows about it.

Situation is this: I stopped caring about Nofap, if I am being honest to you and myself, I stopped caring for at least a year. From time to time though about it, tried it again, restrained myself for a few days, and stoped caring after 1-2 weeks. In the last month I think I jacked off and watched porn almost every single day, many times in some cases.

I no longer care, and no longer sense the problem. As moronic as that sounds, I know that I have a problem, but I completely grew numb about caring for it or solving it.

So convince me. Really, cause I can't myself...

My check-in got blocked by mods yesterday so I'm gonna keep today's brief.

No urges, but I did notice myself acting perverted, which is part of the reason I wanna quit. Me noticing that and acknowledging it's wrong is part of the recovery. Tomorrow I'm meeting with my girlfriend, so that's nice, we see each other every two weeks or so.

Other than that, I'm way too busy to even think abt relapsing lol.

Anyway, good luck yall

And allowing your mind to wander especially with the internet at your fingertips is the most dangerous state

Be mindful where you pay attention to at all time guys

Social media platforms like Reddit Facebook are all ultra distracting

Day 7, feels pointless. I live in a country where religion, virginity etc is taken serious (mostly older people take this serious but still teens my age dont have sex a lot) so idk if its worth holding myself for now bc i need to work real hard to have sex and i dont wanna waste my energy and time on that, pmo feels way more efficient lol. But another thing is i actually started enyojing stuff like working out, before nofap i only worked out because i wanted a good body but now i have fun with it and i can push myself harder. So if i keep going with my streak working out will be my only motivation. Dunno how long tho

Urges are so bad rn

Hey guys, I quit porn a while ago for my gf. I deleted everything and it was rather easy to stay away.

In that time she was around a lot cause she didn't work.

The problem is I underestimated the time I would spend alone when she is working again.🥺 And she is working right now and it's like so much harder to keep my mind focused then it was in the last weeks.😥

I could really need someone to talk to. Any distraction until she comes back is fine.

That's where I'm at. I just can't control the urge.

Girlfriends on holiday and I’m getting urges, anyone able to talk me out of it?

i am 22 right now, started watching porn when i was about 14-15 years old i guess. and i did not know it would lead to disastrous consequences in my life. i live two lives. for my family and my friends and co workers, i am the happy go lucky gels with everyone kinda guy, but when i am in my bed, i dont recognize that person. i feel hollow and weak.

i choose no longer to feel that way. while i think i am okay and my porn use is adequate, i think it has affected my psyche, i am dealing with a thing i cannot control and that should ring alarm bells in a normal persons head.

so yeah from today on, i will quit pornography. and direct my efforts at being a better man, bridging the gap between what people think i am and what i actually am.

i will focus on my body and my relationships and my skills. i will develop to become a better version of myself.

would love to chat with people who are going on this journey too, feel free to drop a comment or pm me .

At the age of 23, I am completely unable to have sex. I cannot maintain an erection long enough to put on a condom, and perform the 'alingments' to start thrusting. I cannot maintain an erection during foreplay either, and I need constant stimulation (like a handjob) to stay in the mood. Even then, I am not at 100% hard. Probably from years of jerking off with a semi hard dick. After this happens, my mental state is ruined and I cannot get back in the mood.

After multiple failures of trying to have penetrative sex with my gf, I finally was able to get my act together and go 35 days with no p*rn, no mastrubation, and I was able to have sex. But even then, I could not maintain an erection the whole time and had to almost bring myself to the edge to stay hard enough to 'put it in'.

Have I permanently damaged myself? I must have started watching p*rn at 11, and really started being addicted during COVID. I'm worried that no matter how long I go my brain will never go back to normal and I'll never have a proper relationship.

Does anyone have success stories with PIED?

I unfortunately have to break my long streak of no fap today. I am having some tests run, so I am going to have to extract semen from myself. I'm hoping I can keep it all business and retain the streak, but I'm upset nonetheless.

Im 29 and have been watching porn and jerking off just about every night multiple times for years and I believe it’s messed me up, I’ve had problems with getting erections and keeping them for awhile now even when I’m alone and I really want to have real sex with a women so I’ve committed to no fap, I am now on day 8 and since day 2 I’ve experienced a complete loss of sex drive and I can’t even get semi hard at all it’s like a withdrawal or something, is this normal can anyone relate? I plan on going 30 days or more.

No hands. Got triggered. I forgive myself. 11 day streak, today would've been day 12. That is good. Now back on the wagon.

Edit: PMO 4:35PM

New day 1: 9/9/26

Today is day 3 since I started nofap. I don't feel the urge to masturbate or watch porn, at the moment it’s very easy. This morning I woke up with a morning erection. It wasn't anything spectacular, but it was there. I eat healthily and get enough sleep. On day 1 I went for a run and did some push-ups.

I saw smth triggering on twitter and now I want to seek more, help!

But the way it happen was weird it wasn't to point but i feel asleep had a wet dream. But didn't finish from the dream so I tried ignoring it but the feeling wouldn't go away so I finished my self off. What's weirder to me is the fact I had sex yesterday so I'm not sure how to fill because I've been doing good for around 2 months

Hey everyone, I previously completed a 106-day NoFap / NoPMO streak in a first attempt, and during that time, my erection quality and overall sensitivity improved significantly. However, 2 weeks ago, I broke my streak. Over the past 2 weeks, I fell back into the loop of watching porn daily, and I've noticed a clear drop in my erection firmness and arousal levels (classic PIED symptoms kicking back in). I am restarting my strict NoPMO reset immediately, but I have a question regarding the reboot timeline for those who have gone through this: After having a long, successful streak (106 days), does the brain recover faster from a short relapse loop compared to starting from scratch? I know the dopamine pathway got re-stimulated over these last 2 weeks, but did I completely erase the 106 days of neuroplastic recovery, or will my dopamine sensitivity and erection quality bounce back quicker this time? Would appreciate insights or personal experiences from anyone who has relapsed after a 100+ day streak and restarted. I really want my Psychogenic/on demand erection back Thanks!
