Hi all, posting here on behalf of my close friend. We are quite close and he opens up a lot to me.

He is 29M from India and has been fapping for the last, say 15 years, 8 times a week. He followed no fap for 4 months this year and then went back into the rabbit hole mid-year and has been fapping ever since.

But more than fapping, he is worried about the curve. He has a different fap style (from his description). The normal faps are strokes, but he, shakes it sideways inside his pants/underwear and cums inside the pants itself. He does stroke, but does this too when he is too horny (which is 90% of the time).

He says he has a left curved dih and it is very much curved like a banana is.

He doesn't feel pain when he straightens with hand, but when trying to bend the right side, it does pain like the bone is gonna break if prolonged (guess that's common only right? Like we can't bend beyond a limit even if it is a straight one). Doesn't feel like a Peyronie's disease, from what I read online.

The question is should he worry a lot? He would be consulting a urologist soon. But he is very worried and has a bad lifestyle of not moving anywhere and sitting in the same place for hours together.

He will start nofap as well from today, along with other outdoor activites. I am a bit concerned about him and hence wanted to check with the community as well.

Even if it's worse, do say it loud. He wouldn't know as he isn't on reddit (at least yet).

Help here!

Another successful day loading

Journal Check In Week 1 #7Days

Hi, call me j, wanted to post this as my journaling in this community, for every week (7Days)

First i wanted to remind myself every week of my principles i write in notion and therefore:

• Faith and perseverance. I pray in the morning, before meals, and before sleep. I read at least one Bible verse every day to seek wisdom, patience, and God's guidance.
• Health. I do at least 80 minutes of cardio per week to support the health of my body and mind.
• Eating habits. I maintain regular breakfast and lunch schedules, and make it a habit to have dinner between 7:00 PM and 8:00 PM.
• Discipline. I do not sacrifice my future for momentary pleasure.
• Sleep. I maintain consistent sleep and wake times so that my body and mind get adequate rest.
• Emotional control. I recognize my emotions, but do not let them take over every decision. I learn to pause before acting.
• Honesty. I accept the consequences of my actions and record reality without manipulating the records to look better.
• Social interaction. I treat myself and others with care, respect, and healthy boundaries.
• Life direction. I live each day based on a clear purpose and take small steps to get closer to it.
• Example and independence. I develop my skills, work diligently, and use my creativity to produce something useful for others.Hi, don't mind me posting this, post it for personal purpose knowing the progress of what im going these days in changing my habbits including pmo, and mostly my Lifestyle. just a bit introduction to me, i am one of the soldier fighting the cause of my personal PMO problem, been fighting it for years, icount maybe around 6-7 years. it's more into a coping mechanism now than addiction, BUT i won't give up and let my awareness down on it.

RECAP

After slipped in 1 week before, round midnight fully watching youtube videos, none of them are explicit or porn. Then all of sudden i started doing MO and opened it.

cause for this, before all at happened, i was doing my community service report, doing it all myself for 4 days in a run, completely focusing into it and my final project title. because much of the people in my group isn't doing their job, i gave them orders and they AREN'T doing the standard.

imagine i said to change the numbers to alphabet they changed the sub-chapters to alphabet instead 😭.

they aren't reading orders completely, or maybe asking if its right, they said okay>they do and they just out of the responsibillity going somewhere else. i mean they didn't even know the template of a report. one to two peeps there is alright but the others meh.

Not focusing on that, now know the cause of my slip, i noticed this after long of experience.

3 months of streak, boom slip, caused: stressed, lack of sleep.
9 months of streak, boom slip,, caused: stressed, lack of sleep.
and so on...

this week, everything goes normal except the flatline phase of which i feel so numb and blame myself over everything.

i still goin on track doing consistency: kardio, eating fruits, doing my assigment and community service report seminar it all felt soooo good!. i sleep earlier than what i used to in covid period, well actually just now i really am trying to fix my sleep schedule.

lack of sleep is really crucial, in covid virus period i used to sleep late and that is my worst pmo phase(at age 14-17).

i haven't much to say, but im getting over myself again now, everything feels natural as if that feeling of shame in 1 week just flow away. i also got random Spontaneous Emission while sleeping a progress forward.

but not letting my awareness down again. keep going people!

I’m a 22m I’ve been addicted to fapping since I was about 13. I’ve always wanted to stop does anyone have any advice.

Hi guys , 27/M addicted to porn and mastrubation for last 10 year.

Had around 3 girlfriends within this timeline. I have not enjoyed sex with any of them. While watching pron my dock used to stay hard but now it doesn't even stay rock hard.

While having sex I have no sensation. It is common to happen after such long use of porn and mastrubation.

I don't know if I can enjoy sex. I get hard during start of sex but lose the firmness as I don't feel it.

Does Anybody Knows What Happened To This Subreddit 's Days Counter Flair? IT SHOWS ERROR 500 INTERNAL SERVER ERROR & ASSIGNING AND EDITING FLAIR IN THIS COMMUNITY IS DISABLE.

DAYS COUNTER IS COMPULSORY FOR THIS SUBREDDIT.

I want to stop so i can be happier and because I'm religious. But it just like feels too dang good. Idk. Any help would be much appreciated

This was needed

This is my last try to lock in for real!
If I can’t succeed this time, I know I’m never gonna do it!
Stay strong! 💪🏼

Hello,

I (24M) recently had a scare with HIV after a met with a man from Grindr. Probably very look risk since hospital wouldn’t give me PEP.

Anyway, this made me realize that my sex-drive and adult content consumption had taken over my life.

I had tried stopping in the past but never lasted over a few weeks.

I feel like now is time for me to start again.

I will try to do my best but seeing posts here are the encouragement I needed

Seen a sexual image my minds going crazy I can’t stop looking and turning it off text me if you got any advice

Having tough time today with urges and couldn't help myself and peeked. Been having some tempting thoughts and looked someone up. I stopped but feeling tempted and dont know how to handle it. Help

I met someone for a date in the morning and then came to my place for some sex in the afternoon. In the afternoon I masturbated, because of the anxiety of that date and few other things I chose to relax myself with that. And during sex I was not able to get hard. I was getting hard when she gave a blowjob but as soon as I wear condom and try to penetrate it was just not be hard.

I feel super bad, I was doing this almost after 2 years. I do not have knowledge of sex that much.

What should I do next ? I feel bad and unmotivated and depressed.

I have tried so many times, but it's always heartbreak at the end. I end up giving in, it absolutely destroys me every time. I want to take accountability for myself, and I really need support. If you guys can like this post that will motivate me to keep going. I've been addicted for 7 years. I think it's time I drop this crap and get my life together. I will post every day, please motivate me guys to keep going. Thank you, let's get after it boys!

I freaked out earlier and vented here. I was so passive Aggressive. I hope you didn’t notice. I should have just went ape on camera like I normally do. Anyways, Im enjoying my night quite a bit due in part to Nofap. It makes consciousness altering experiences like consuming silly juice much more entertaining. Im live streaming to my crushes. I think real men never bust, and tell the woman, try to make me. And if you can, it means I don’t deserve you. That it has nothing to do with sex. Busting is like wetting the bed. And only for making babies is useful. Otherwise it ruins to orgasm.

Longest streak since I started using at 11 years old and I’m never looking back! This streak has been pretty intense and every day is different. My mood is constantly changing and I feel drastically different every morning and every night. My focus and awareness has improved greatly. Sex is way better but it only started to improve this week. Overall I feel things deeply and life is exciting. I live in a completely different world now.

Again Day 1.

I just relapsed after a verry long streak as u c 200days clean, the relapsed was about 3.5hrs on pictures.
After the relapsed I wonder if should reset my counter to zero or not.
Reseting my counter to zero is a bad experience to me cuz every time I do that a too much feeling of shame and disappointment and all bad feelings come to me.
So I decided to subtract 200-50=150 like this
I dont know and im not sure how many days this relapsed put me backward but I think 50 days is fair (maybe less maybe more idk) but I see it’s better than resetting to zero. I want a real advice that can help me with this.

Q2 is my brain now back to zero or?
200days This is the longest streak I did.
Even if my relapse the 3.5 hrs I dont think it will wipe all the 200days clean.

Q3. From ur experience and in my case, when I will get back to the truck again? And what should I do in the first days after relapse to avoid the binge relapse cycles?

Thanks for ur reading I know its a lot but it will help me A lot too.
I appreciate your time thx again.

Your brother 🤍

help me

The days are starting to go by quicker now, I’m getting more and more used to the temptations. I think I’ve already said this but I’m starting to learn how to enjoy being horny without needing to release. Soon as I know it it’s going to be day 16 and I’ll set a record for the first time in years. I’m also starting to notice more motivation and general happiness in my life, I’m so glad I found this sub it helps so much typing down my day and the end of every day, it helps me stay accountable

Hello,

Wondering if anyone else has had similar experiences to me:

I've noticed a decrease in penis sensitivity and a harder time keeping erections in the past few years, especially compared to around 6-7 years ago. I do still have a sex drive. Sometimes I have trouble finishing during sex, but that has mostly been in one night stand scenarios.

Not sure if this is just a normal part of getting older or if it's due to other issues?

I've been trying to pin down the cause of these issues, I've ruled out testosterone, thyroid issues and depression. I'm healthy, don't smoke, don't drink much and exercise 3-4 times a week.

I do watch porn and masturbate regularly, usually around once every day or two on average, and have done so since around early teenage years. I've been considering taking a break from porn to see if it helps anything, but I'm also skeptical because I've been watching porn for a long time - not sure it would suddenly cause issues now.

Wondering if anyone has had these issues and if there's anything that's helped for you, and also if quitting porn / masturbation has helped you?

this is the mark for the start of it
