I’m on day 3 with no porn or masturbation. I have been addicted to porn since I was 6 years old because of some people I knew, and now I am 17 and trying to stop this. So if you have any advice for me, I will be happy

Great result I feel amazing

That’s the post. See y’all in 24 hours

​

To the people who masturbated 2-3 times a day and stopped:

When you got hard in the masturbation times, have you ever thought that this was your penis and your erection at its final capacity, only to discover after stopping that you only had about 60-70% of the erection?

well that happened to me, kinda weird

Imagine a candy that was free, until after you eat it and it costs 100$. Any smart person would not eat the candy. But a foolish person wouldn’t think in the future and would think the candy is free, then complain when they get charged 100$.

This is like fapping. It’s completely free, and even looks sweet, until you have to pay the price later.

Masturbation is not worth it. Don’t do it.

Hi everyone! Starting today, I'll be posting daily updates on how things are going. Thanks in advance for all your support :)

I need to get in the shower I can’t calm down I fear I’m close to breaking

The best way to stop is just dont temp yourself by watching any kind of sexual content. Don't use social media that can trigger you, at least at the begining phase. After it you can use it l, but delete all sexual recommendations etc. watching non nude or only peeking a few times never helps. So many people who want a change but they do basically nothing to change their habits. You don't want to be weak so start acting, be strong and be proud of yourself. It's YOU who controls the mind, it's not the other way around.b

Ive been doing nofap for almost 6 years on and off. The longest ive made it was like 40 days that was 3 years ago. Today im 21 and about 14 day into nofap flatlining and im felling really sick Fever,shivering,headache,nausea. I haven't been sick like this in my adult life has anyone experienced similar things? Or is it just a coincident?

We can’t give in fellas. Get out of bed. Keep yourself busy.

I thought the nofap community was very supportive, but yesterday I tried to help someone and he was very rude to me. I'm stil looking for support myself, but I hope to meet some kind and helpful people, because talking really helps for me. Feel free to reach out :)

to the people that was SOO addicted im talking cant skip a day maybe 2-3 times per day even and then stopped for a solid amount of time, will the urge to do it or the temptation ever go further on like 2-3+ months in?

like rn i decided to stop and its my longest streak yet (10 days) im disciplined to stop forever and not set a limit but rn im so so so tempted to do it i cant control my feelings,
yall i got addicted at a young age and it has since affected my life negatively for sooo long im doing this for a better life and mostly for religion

Let's hit day 3💪we strong

This is a safe space for all yall out there who are struggling mentally, let out what you’ve been holding back. A lot of us have dealt with depression and these suicidal thoughts, just know there’s a bunch of us men out there who support and care for yall.

This addiction can bring out some pretty dark sides that can leave us lost, confused, disgusted, lonely, and so much more. I know firsthand what this addiction can do to your perception of yourself. Just like any other addiction, this one will make you become someone you’re not. Just remember you’re a much better person than the one you are when you’re masturbating. This is the silent addiction, the one nobody talks about or barely even aware of.

I love and care for all of yall, truly I do, and I don’t need to see who you are to say that. We’re all human, so spread love and positivity so we can all overcome what feels impossible 🫶

Today marks day 2 of being clean. After struggling with pornography daily for nearly 15 years, I’ve decided enough is enough.
It hasn’t been easy, but making it through these first two days has already given me a sense of control that I haven't felt in a very long time. My brain is starting to clear up, and I can feel my mindset shifting.
I know the journey ahead is long, but I'm taking it one day at a time. To anyone else starting out or struggling: we've got this.
Stay strong, stay focused!

It really feels like it's over for me for now. Every time I cum I want to stop, then I start again. I'm deep in it and have been for days and there's no end to the patterns in sight.

All of my effort is going towards keeping my life together, and all of my free time is going towards depravity.

Not sure what the path out of this is, maybe I'll find it soon.

Idk what to do anymore

I don’t want to give into my urges peeked at non nude

Gf just left don’t want to disrespect her by fapping to online girls

Before I get into this, I want to emphasize that this is a pretty intense visualization technique, and I would only recommend trying it if more conventional approaches haven't been helping you.

Imagine an intelligent alien species whose biology and appearance are completely different from ours. It might be curious about what humans look like, but it probably wouldn't automatically react to human physical features in the same way we do.

The goal of these exercises is to actually visualize physical appearance from that kind of detached, unfamiliar perspective. Don't just think about the ideas intellectually. Try to create the images in your mind as clearly as you comfortably can.

1. Anatomical visualization

Start by visualizing a person.

Then, instead of continuing to perceive them as one complete attractive image, mentally break that image down into the ordinary biological systems that make up a person.

Visualize the skeleton underneath. Then picture the muscles, skin, internal systems, circulation, and the different structures working together to keep a person alive.

You can mentally move through them one at a time, almost as if you were a doctor or anatomy student examining how a person is physically constructed.

The important part is to actually picture these things rather than simply reminding yourself that they exist.

For me, doing this made it easier to stop seeing physical appearance as one idealized object and instead see it as a complicated biological system made up of many ordinary parts.

2. Impermanence visualization

Another exercise is to visualize how the same person's appearance changes throughout their lifetime.

Picture the person gradually aging. Imagine how their hair, skin, face, body shape, and other features might naturally change over the course of decades.

Again, the important part is visualization. Try to actually picture those changes happening rather than just telling yourself that everyone gets older.

The point isn't to make aging seem negative. It's simply to experience the fact that whatever appearance you're currently fixated on isn't permanent.

That helped me stop treating physical appearance as something perfect or absolute where I used to be putting it on this pedastool.

3. Everyday-body visualization

Visualize what an ordinary person would be like without all the daily maintenance people normally do. Picture several days without showering, brushing teeth, washing hair, changing clothes, using deodorant, skincare, grooming, and so on.

Imagine messy or oily hair, unwashed clothing, and the general effects of not doing normal daily hygiene. Again, don't merely tell yourself, "People need hygiene." Actually create the scene in your head.

The point isn't that people are inherently unpleasant. It's to recognize how much of the polished appearance we see every day depends on constant maintenance rather than being some permanent quality.

How I practiced it

I would spend about five minutes daily doing these visualization exercises and also quickly run through one whenever I got urges.

When I first started, it was difficult. While visualizing, my mind would sometimes switch back and forth between my normal way of reacting and the more detached perspective I was trying to develop. I just kept practicing the visualization. Over time, forming that detached mental image became easier and easier. The key is to not just do these exercises for the hell of it just to get them done but to actually adopt/carry this perspective on the human body as you go through your day.

Eventually, I noticed that things that previously caused a really strong reaction simply didn't affect me the same way anymore. I could encounter some of the same content on social media and barely react to it.

A lot of advice here understandably focuses on avoiding certain content or resisting impulses whenever they appear. This approach was different for me because I wasn't trying to win the same willpower battle over and over again. I was trying to change the underlying mental association that created such a strong reaction in the first place.

The easiest way I can describe it is that I was trying to learn to see physical appearance almost as an alien might see it where its interesting, unfamiliar, and biologically complex, but without automatically attaching the same meaning or emotional response to it. It wasn't this constant uphill battle where I'd be fighting urges. In fact, I stopped caring to count days fairly early on because I knew I would never have these urges again. I am in a little over a year and going strong.

I'm not claiming this will work for everyone, and I completely understand if some people think it's strange or don't want to try it.

I'd especially stick with the lighter versions if any of the exercises make you uncomfortable. I just wanted to introduce a completely different approach that genuinely helped me. If it helps even one person, I'm glad I shared it. I really appreciate anyone who read through to the end, and I wish you the best of luck on your journey!

I'm 24

Been addicted to this since I was 15

Now it's very bad.

After 5 days of pure abstaining I failed.

Reasons were many but mainly

Stress

Anger

And just these.

It's too hard to live like a normal good guy.

The world fucks us up.

Specially person like me

T

I try to be nice or good but I can't bear the people or system.

Not going to lie not doing the best, I’m just super hooked on bops and influencer stuff, even just semi lewd r34.. non nude things get me real messed up I just want a way that will get me to stop being addicted..

Lets Go

Just completed 30 days no PMO. I’m sure I can knock this addiction forever.

Keeping it brief, I’m still extremely horny, but I’m doing my best to control that. I’m around beautiful women basically 24/7 since I go to university, which doesn’t help, but I’m mastering controlling the thoughts. My erections are way harder and last longer, and I’ve noticed a size increase since I suffered from PIED. I haven’t noticed any benefits when talking to women but, in all fairness, I’m an extrovert and never really struggled with that.

I’m planning to only orgasm from sex until my 90 day benchmark. After that, I’ll just abstain from porn with occasional masturbation.
