I have been trying no fap since about May now and I cant break 7 days. Recently I have been getting more and more serious about it and when I reach the higher days I feel sick. My body becomes stressed and it gets hard to breathe. All I can think about is PMO. All i want to do is break that week mark. Then from there I can move on and to further things. Does anyone have an advice how to surpass this? I have deleted all social media as there are many triggers. I have limited phone usage and only watch TV on it. I just get so lonley I start going to things that give me happiness and my brain always tricks me into PMO. I need help.

All you need is strong mindset. Feeling guilty won’t help you either.

Hey buddy
This might be lengthy but do read it completely
I can understand as I’m going through this
Mu largest streak without this app or any support was 14 days as I wanted to get out of this
I’ll just share u wat helped me
1.try waking up by 5 max in the morning and do something productive
( the reason being if u have some task to be completed start doing that task and u ll feel so happy that u have more time than the rest of the world as u woke up early while many are still sleeping which gives u positivity)
2. Exercise is mandatory and most do a bit of yoga and pranayama( pranayam exercises are ntg but breathing exercises and they help a lot that’s what happened with me)
Try exercising twice daily as it will help in channeling ur energy
3. Never eat stomach full as it starts to make u lazy and u dont feel like doing any effective work . It’s fine if u have a bit less than what u are hungry coz u have minimum of 3 times a day
4. Practice meditation everyday…
5. Whenever u get the urge just leave whatever u are doing wash ur face with cold water and then sit in some different place close ur eyes take deep inhalations and exhale slowly through ur mouth( u can find this in pranayam and this actually helps in calming ur brain and distracting u)
6. Stop watching any sexual or erotic content ( u have a life time to enjoy many things with ur loved 1 so just try chucking it)
7. Read books of yogi where they have described sexual urges and importance of semen retention )
And try to adopt a new hobby like guitar or music or anything .
8 try to finish ur meals at night b4 7.30and try sleeping by 9 or 9.30 and u will be able to sleep since u woke up early and exercised twice and donot sleep in the afternoon because it may lead to lack of sleep at night and hence might lead to relapse
That’s all buddy
Hope we succeed
For further information
Just try watching " fit tuber no fap "on you tube just the first two videos and dont even watch the third 1 as it is inappropriate and may deviate u from ur goal
And lastly dont think u can’t
Many people could do it many people are doing then even u can do it
All the best buddy.
Let’s try this together

Perhaps this tips can help you my friend :
My name is Eduardo , I’m from Brazil , I’m 28 years old and
I’ve been on nofap since 2014 , My High streak is 1596 days (without P and without M), lately I’ve been 100 , before that I was addicted to P and M for 11 years between 2003 to 2014 and used it every day during that period, I had depression, anxiety, phobias and Panic Syndrome and I live in this time like a prisioner of myself , with so much suffering because P and others things in my Life, Then I got attached to the Creator that with the Strength of His Majesty answered me and put in my path a site similar to the Rewire Companion that helped me out of the bondage of Addiction a site called GuardYourEyes and I got a streak of 4 ½ years
Here are the tips:
- GUARDING YOUR EYES
Guarding yourself of triggers is essential for get away from Pmo addiction and not just for 90 days, but for the rest of your life, for this the following measures must be adopted:
UNINSTALL INSTAGRAM OR DISABLE SOCIAL NETWORKS THAT MAKE YOU FALL
At least 50 percent of falls I hear in social media come from instagram
even if the person doesn’t follow any instagram model, Instagram puts them without you asking for these models on your screen, it happened to me on social networks and I know it must have happened to you too
Beware of netflix, opt for other streaming services that have fewer triggers, netflix is ​​champion in triggers!
By the way , I recommend you exclude netflix and anothers movies and series with heavy triggers forever
Watch out for some news sites, know where you step, yes have serious sites of news without triggers
And on the street don’t look at women who are dressed provocatively, as this will lead you to fall hours later (as it enters your mind through your eyes and your brain will use it against you later), look away you don’t have to look for none of these triggers
So the principle of Guarding Your Eyes is when you see a trigger anywhere, whether in real or virtual life, immediately dodge the trigger and focus on details around you, breathe 10 seconds, hold the air for 10 seconds and release in 10 seconds do as many times as necessary, if it doesn’t help, take a cold shower to get you back to normal, know that this will pass, this pain is temporary and happens to everyone, especially at the beginning of the reboot, see this as a beneficial pain from surgery taking a tumor (in this case addiction)
Know that guarding your eyes is like exercising your muscles, as time goes by it becomes a habit and that with time ends up being part of you, if it is not true how you explain possible I stay for years without PMO?
- DOWNLOAD BLOCKERS
It is essential to get out of addiction to put fences, and one of these fences are blockers, and there are countless ones in the app stores with prominence for Blockerx, BullDog Blocker, Safe Surfer, Pure Web and Clean Browsing (the latter does not have in the app store, only on the official Cleanbrowsing website, free of charge).
Blockers are to prevent involuntary triggers, such as those that appear when you are doing a search for work or school on google images and the triggers appear and also to block the cell phone in case you want to see it, you can also configure it for this by going to password for someone
Blockers also help against triggers on google and youtube, as some of them automatically put youtube and google in restricted mode
- GET THE WHOLE WHATSAPP GROUP DIRTY
This thing is very direct. I don’t think I have to explain.
- UNDERSTAND WHY YOU ARE HAVING THESE TRIGGERS
In order to achieve your goal, you need to understand what causes you to relapse. So, for many they are instagram, whatsapp group, without relationship, without purpose in life, boredom, these are the biggest reasons for falling.
Pay attention to what can generate boredom in you, some examples that can generate boredom are: not having contact with people, that is, not socializing, spending a lot of time on the internet aimlessly browsing haphazardly, whether marathoning series or playing, these things do not fill and generate a lot of boredom, so they should be used with balance in descending moments, I repeat again BALANCE
- BE BUSY
Always be busy with constructive things, work, study, build or renovate something, it is something good for the Brain and for your well being and it really fills you up
- HAVE GOALS, HAVE GOALS!
Daily, weekly, monthly, yearly goals, goals for life, just have goals for your brain to automatically process your ability to achieve it.
And to help you with that I recommend the counting app called Quitzilla.
- MEDITE
This will help you to resist these urges, sexual thoughts and give you the power to focus and concentrate.
- COLD SHOWER
When the urge arises, go to the shower and take a cold shower.
Cold shower refresh the soul and kill the urges!
Cold shower is to the Mental health and to the whole body very beneficial .Look here:
- BE A BETTER PERSON
Donate to charity, do volunteer work, forgive whoever has to forgive, fight for justice in your country, bring light to this world, KNOW that you can make difference ! KNOW that each one of you is special!
Donate sites that fight against Pmo like Rewire companion and others similar sites according to your conditions. Somehow do good always.
- REFUGE IN A GREATER FORCE
Of all that , I said for you : The foundation of everything is to take refuge in God, no matter religion or non-religion, know that there is something that is above you and that is part of your Essence, it is that inner Voice, of Encouragement that gives you strength in darkest hours and that always calls us, no matter how dark we find ourselves, this Voice is from our Source that calls us and fights this War together with us, without your help and without applying the tools above I would never be able to be free
I hope that the tips above can help you just as it helped me, I want to remind you that the 90 days are just the beginning of the reboot is not the end, so the importance of always having goals, even when completing 1 year, 2, 3 is not the Finally, never accommodate never ! When you reach 90 days, 180 days, 1 year, etc. etc.
The rule of Guarding Your Eyes is eternal and NEVER accommodating ,
because nobody becomes invincible after 90 days, you get stronger and stronger, but if you falter and do not guarding your eyes and live a life without goals sooner or later, you will fall.
If you fall, remember of never go back to square one, do not let a block dismantle the building you have built!
And after you rise up help others rise up too!
