PIED Issues : Hardmode Continue

Day 30.

Got up and found my self rubbing against the bed. Had erection 80%. It was there for 10 min.

Staying with the plan.

Just realised on this platform that each one has a different reason to be on PMO / MO. It can be stress in relationship / trying to get away from an addiction / pain because of medical conditions. Basically mastrubation has been used to get away from some pain in life.

In my case it has been stress in a relationship with my Ex and further divorce.

I started to notice PIED issues and reached this platform.

I am 46 yrs with NO medical condition and fairly built.

Fortunately I am into another relationship now, with some distance involved.

My partner is living this PIED issue with me. Thanks to her.

She has lot of questions regarding process, speed and result of this reboot.

I donot have much answers to it but I give her a hope that someday we will have a great sex.

I did 15 days NO PMO hard mode and then was with her for 4 days. I had below satisfactory sex with erection issues. Not instant, not hard enough to do all positions and at any place, not able to maintain erection for entire duration.

Started NO PMO hardmode again, post she left. On day 30. She will be away for another 20 days which will help me to do NO PMO for total of 45 days.

I will adopt NO PMO as my lifestyle.

I get a precum release whenever she talks about how badly she wants to have sex whenever we both meet. Just started getting MW.

I really hope that reboot is answer to my problems.

Thanks for motivation and sharing your journey.

Fapping everyday in January made me rewire further!!

Now let me explain, I’ve done nofap for a few years now, had severe PIED. Done streaks of 300 days no PMO and after starting to experiment with real sex and had some relapses with PMO again.

To make a long story short, watching P is still very tempting when you have no partner and trying to live PMO free. Once the PIED is (partially) cured, your libido is back and you are just horny. Your body just craves having sex.

I gave myself a challenge in January : masturbate & orgasm everyday (without P, P-subs and P fantasies) only with fantasy of having sex with an attractive woman, not with a sexualized bimbo lol. It was an experiment to see what happens, will I have PIED again ? Will I have brainfog ? Will I be less attractive in real life ? Lets find out :

First few days made me really happy, sometimes it made me crazy that I cannot touch myself for such extended periods, felt like torture. From day 7-12 I started to lose my libido, erections getting less. I gave myself a few days of rest, after a few days my erection came back, so I went on with the challenge. This cycle keeps repeated until end of the month.
NO brainfog or any other changes noticed.

Now I’m 1 week free of PMO, and my libido and erection grow back stronger!! And the best part…… the entire month of January I had ZERO temptations to watch ■■■■.

For me personally this has been a game changer, my cravings to watch ■■■■ are farrrrrrrr less than before. But I would only recommend this if you are an experienced Fapstronaut (and have similair issue as me), and who has no sexual partner of course.

Fully recovered from PIED in 2 months

Before my recovery started I had embarrassing PIED. My wife tried to surprise me with sex one night and I couldn’t get it up at all. I was totally limp. I tried to make excuses. But it killed the mood. I’m in my thirties. I knew that day I had to recover from my addiction.

After one month of being PMO free we were having sex easily. I was fully erect at a moments notice. No need for foreplay or anything specific. Just ready to go.

After TWO months? It was unbelievable sex. For both.

Im not going to say everyone will recover that strongly in 2 months time, what matters most is the strength of your intention and knowledge level. I had tried to recover many times before then and each failure made me better at it.

365 days of sobriety today along with 15 years of addiction

Hey this is TRS,
Today I am sharing my heartfelt gratitude and thanks to God/Krishna for giving me long awaited sobriety today. I was a chronic Relapser, heavy ■■■■ consumer, fantasy addict but yes By the grace of God/Krishna I could say I did it.
When in try to remember it was 2008 when in was having my First encounter with jacking off and it was really a very good experience initially and I started Doing on regular basis and I did not know that I was getting Addicted to masterbation. I See I was touched inappropriately when I was kid and I fantasied alot in my childhood. As I reached in my High school I was First encounter with an explicit images and it kept on moving on my head and I still have that memory and I can See How deeply I am Addicted. Later on I started watching lots of pornographic contents and would do jack off regularly. In the process I indulged in an illicit relationship, and because of my behaviour she was threatened to get divorced. And I Lost a beautiful relationship with my cousin who loved me alot and supported me at my need but me as an addict I had to discontinue my relationship with my cousin. Later I harmed few people as well and they told me because of my addiction I ruined my life it hit me very hard. This was the time when I started to stop my addiction but it was very hard for me to stop, even I could hardly keep myself sober for few days and again I trapped in this vicious cycle.

I became helpless and hopeless. Since I was preparing for government job I failed all exams because of my addiction. I found a true relationship in between and she knew my addictive behaviour still she loved me alot and she supported me in all forms and even we wanted to get married but again my addiction mind came in between and it ruined everything. I started using her as an alternate of ■■■■, I forcefully urge her or manipulate her to help me in acting out. It went virtually I am still virgin but I acted out so much. When I started searching that it was damaging me alot, I started searching for a solution and in 2009 I found Nofap, and it gave me hope initially I kept on relapsing every day but after few days I have my first sobriety of 30 days than 72 days than 90 days than 10 months and finally I have sobriety of 1 year.

PROBLEMS I HAD BECAUSE OF MY ACTING OUT:-

I HAD LOTS OF ANXIETY, FEARFUL, SELF HATRED, SELF PITY, HAIR FALL PROBLEMS, EXCRUCIATING BACKACHE PROBLEMS, FREQUENT NOCTURNAL EMISSION, DEPRESSED FOR MORE THAN 5 YEARS, FAILED IN TRUE RELATIONSHIP, FAILED IN CAREERS.

BENEFITS OUT OF BEING SOBER:-

LESS ANXIETY, REGULATED MY FEARS, DEPENDED MORE ON GOD AND LESS ON MYSELF AND OTHERS, STILL HAIR FALL BUT IT REDUCED SIGNIFICANTLY. I FEEL MORE CONFIDENT WHILE TALKING.

MY NOFAP HACKS:- INITIALLY I USED TO EXPLORE HERE ALOT, I USED TO SHARE MY JOURNAL EVERYDAY INITIALLY. READING SUCCESS STORIES HERE HELPED ME ALOT. I USED TO GO TO RELAPSE SECTION AGAIN AND AGAIN TO REALISE MYSELF HOW PAINFUL RELAPSE IS AND IT ALWAYS GAVE ME WAY TO STOP ACTING OUT AND EVEN WELCOMING NEW COMERS HERE HELPED ME ALOT.

WILL UPDATE FURTHER…
STAY TUNED

Memoires of 24-year-old that survived a suicide attempt

I was reading ‘Beyond Order’ by Jordan Peterson the other day. It’s a great self-help book, and it’s actually a sequel on ’12 Rules for Life’. One of the rules/chapters is called ‘If old memories still upset you, write them down carefully and completely’. So that’s what I’ll do over here. First, I will give you guys a short summary of my life so far. After that, I’ll go into detail and write all my traumas and battle scars on this page whenever I feel like it.

So, I was born 24 years ago in a small town in the Netherlands. I grew up as an only child and I lived with my mom and dad. My parents divorced when I was 7 years old. Since then, my mom and I lived together and my dad moved out. One of my dad’s friends became my stepfather shortly afterwards, and he still lives with my mom. My dad has remarried too and got two kids with his new wife and I consider them as my little brothers. During my childhood I was a happy, creative, introverted and funny kid. But I was very obedient and a ‘good boy’. Although I liked being on my own, I was a social kid and had a lot of fun during my childhood.

When I got in high school, I got a lot of new friends. I became more extraverted and more rebellious. I had a lot of fun in high school; I kissed a girl for the first time, got my first real girlfriend, and I had sex for the first time. Unfortunately, I also developed a lot of bad habits during high school: smoking cigarettes, heavy drinking, smoking weed, eating junk food, procrastination, and the worst of them all: jerking off at foot-fetish-content. In my senior year they kicked me out, because of my behavior and my bad grades.

After high school, my bad habits became worse. I started drinking and smoking more and more, I started experimenting with hard drugs, and my innocent foot-fetish developed in a hardcore femdom-fetish. I jerked off to femdom, humiliation, forced bi, cuckold, slave/master and even gay content at least twice a day. Because of a lack of motivation, no work ethic, procrastination ,and having no direction in life I failed getting a degree twice. The drugs, the femdom content, low confidence, a depression and the letter that told me I got kicked out of school again, made me commit a horrible crime; at the age of 20, I committed suicide by taking pills and drinking booze.

Luckily, I puked all the pills out in my sleep and after staying in the hospital for the night, I could go home again. Still dealing with all my problems, I started working at my grandfather’s business. From there I slowly built myself up again. I started NoFap, eating healthy, lifting weights, watching self-help content on YouTube, running, and reading books. At the age of 22 I managed to get into college, by applying to a special program. I moved out to a student dorm in another city and started a bachelor in Business and Entrepreneurship.

Now, I am almost at the start of my third year. I quit smoking for 6 months now, I haven’t been drunk in months, reduced drug intake to a few times a year, and I’m fighting every day against PMO. My body and mind are in great shape, and I am healthier and happier than ever before. I even became a Christian last year. But it’s not completely happily ever after. I still have a lot of demons that I need to confront.

Flatline conquered after over 120 days.

Maybe my story can ba an inspiration and can give some hope to people struggling with long flatline.

I will be 42 in few weeks and I am addicted for whole my life. Can’t actually remember my life without pornography. Started with some magazines, and VHS in late 80ties / early 90ties. At the end I was watching mostly some TS, sissy, CD shit or some violent disgusting stuff.

For whole my life I was able to somehow have quite normale sex life but PMO was always supperior and much more arousing for me.

After my marriage was finished in June 2022 decide to change my life and start nofap.
In my case quiting pmo was the the easiest part of the game.
I was trying to stop few times befor but it was the first sirious attempt.
It was probably so ease because after mayby 3 days when I was super positive I got hit by a terrible flatline.
I was not sure what is going on since never heard about flatline before. I was freaking out and testing myself watching some P just to check if I am still able to get some erection but to M or O. I was M without P few times in first two weeks but my erection was like max 70% only.
At the beginning og October I finally found some info about flatline, stop testing myself and reset my counter even though I did not PMO for already almost 3 months.

At the same time I met my dream girl and of course wanted to have sex. I was scared that I won’t be able to perform and started using some ED pils.
It was helping at the bigining but after few weeks I stops working for me…

I also started training almost every day, taking cold showers daily, taking some supplements and vitamins, meditating…
Reduced alkohol, weed and coffee drastically. Started eating clean. Stopped using social media.

It was the time when I was in the middle of the flatline and had worst smotoms. Depression, suicidal thoughts, insomnia, extreme brain fog and absolutely no libido.

I was almost sure that I will never be normal guy again and never be able to have sex again. I stopped dating with my gf because I was barely able to take care of my daily life and she was also struggling with some personal issues at that moment.

I was a broken man. I lost all the hope. I started to regret being on noFap since my life was much better befor it. Never hed any kind of depression and mantal health issues and was a happy guy but somehow I was able to keep going.

From December I was on hard mode and after few weeks started to feel slightly better. Starting to have harder and longer nocturnal erections and morning wood but still nothing on the day time. My mood was much better, suicidal thoughts disappeared… But still no libido which was actually my biggest concern and still there were dark hopeless days.
I was still hitting the gym, running, taking cold showers daily

I lost over 20 kgs since started noFap and never was in such a good phisical shape for whole my life.

Few days ago started meeting this girl again and was freaking out and feel anxiety about my performance ability since my libido was still almost non existent but decided to be honest with her and do not use any ED pils.

Yesterday we had a great time together. She was very supportive and full of understanding. I manage to perform and finish somehow even though my dick gets flaccid several times.

After few hours we started kissing and cuddling and got bonner. My erection was 100% perfect all the time this time. I was able to satisfy her and stopped befor O this time since I read that too many O can slow dawn healing process.

Anyway I think I will be just better and better now and I am absolutely sure I will never watch P again.

So for all of you who still struggling with flatline. Have no fear. Belive in process. Keep going no meter what since there is no fuckin way back!
Thanks to Nofap I am now new better version of my self after over 30 years of addiction.

I am still not 100 % healthy but I hope I soon will be. I will keep on with all new positive habits and once again never back to ■■■■. I don’t feel any urges to watch P and I am not even sure if I could get an erection watching it… but will not test it
…and do not read too much about endless flatlines. Every flatline has it’s end!

** Finally! Day 90. After 10 years**

I can’t believe that I’ve finally reached day 90, and I just had to share it. 90 days. I thought, I would never reach this day, but here I am!

My main motivation for doing this was PIED (or at least, very weak erections). I have suffered from this for many years, and it has definitely had a negative impact on my already limited sex life and dating life. I have seen significant improvements in this department, and I can actually get hard now, though my erections aren’t as hard as during my pre ■■■■ teenage years, and I still think, I’ve got healing to do. (Sorry, if this was too much info).

Other than that, I feel pretty great. I have more confidence than before. And even though I made a deal with myself, that I would wait until day 90 before starting dating, I’ve cheated a bit and started writing to some girls on a dating app. I couldn’t stop myself, and right now I’m writing with this really cute girl. I don’t want to get my hopes up, though, and I know that girls tend to be kind of flakey on these apps. But I very rarely could muster up the energy to write to someone, and now I’m just doing it with ease, no sweat.

In the last three months I’ve also started a lot of other good habits (not all at once). I’ve improved my training and diet significantly, and I wouldn’t be surprised, if I have a sixpack in 3-6 months (I’ve been training consistently for a year, but I haven’t cut back on the junk food until about 2 months ago).

I also got my phone addiction pretty much under control by deleting/deactivating or removing data from all the worst apps. I deleted Facebook and Instagram, deactivated Youtube (you can’t delete it, and normally you can’t even deactivate it – I used an app called ‘Activity Launcher’ to finally deactivate it, really annoying), and I removed data access for my browsers. Now my phone isn’t as interesting anymore, and I don’t really miss it. I used to constantly use Youtube for podcasts, videos, vlogs and music. Like ALL the time, almost 24/7, and now I haven’t been on Youtube for 30 days. This is a real game changer for me, maybe even bigger than Nofap. Now I fill up my time with a lot of reading instead. And I go out more, and I grab more opportunities to enjoy life.

Cold showers almost every day (done that for about a year now, not really a new habit).

And lastly, I’m really trying to nail my sleep. I read the book ‘Sleep’ by Nick Littlehales, and I implemented most of his suggestions. I bought a day light lamp, a special night lamp and a sunrise alarm clock. I shut off all devices and light (expect for my night lamp) an hour before bed, I wake up at the same time every day, and I go to bed at specific times to get a certain number of 90-minute sleep cycles. I feel so much more rested nowadays

One of my most helpful tools was Gary Wilson’s book ‘Your brain on ■■■■’ a couple of times to really motivate me and make me understand ■■■■ addiction. I also saw his TEDx talk several times. I was so sad to learn around day 30 that Gary passed away in 2021. It feels sad, when someone who had a big impact on your life dies (despite the fact that I never met the guy). What a brilliant man, he deserved a longer life.

Anyway, I just wanted to share my experience. I’ve been trying Nofap on and off for about 10 years, and it feels so nice, when you finally reach your goal. I don’t feel a need for P or M anymore, its completely off my radar at this point in time, and my fantasies now all involve me being with a girl, and not remembering a scene from a video featuring other people doing it. It makes no sense to me now that I didn’t even used to be in my own fantasies.

Well, good luck everyone.

RESULTS 30+ Days

Hi guys!

I’m going to share with you how my 30+ day NoFap journey has been.
These areas have been my focus so far:

No PMO
Mediation
Exercise
Improved diet

Since doing all these things I wake up less tired. Although I don’t feel super energized I feel essentially more normal. I don’t feel bogged down by constant and incessant fatigue.
I’ve hit personal bests in weightlifting, pull ups etc. My training partner was very impressed. He said I’m much stronger than I think. Size gains have been minimal but strength gains have been very impressive.
Although I still have bouts of anxiety and depression my head space is much better than it was before.
My personal opinion is that even after hitting 90 days I won’t have “superman” feelings that some people talk about. My life has more issues than just fapping. But this has been a very good start and IT WILL give you a good foundation to then be able to focus on other areas of your life.
Also, I highly recommend no O either (for those of you who have partners, spouses etc) if you’re going to still engaging in sexual activity with others try your best not to finish.

30 days down Hardmode

I just completed 30 days hard mode, this is my first time trying NoFap, been PMOing for about 14ish years. These have honestly been some of the darkest days of my life. The anxiety, depression, paranoia, and lack of joy and motivation have been excruciating. This was an extremely hard fought battle. Every single day has brought a new battle with anxiety, depression and intrusive thoughts. Ive had to start to take SSRIs to combat the above withdrawal symptoms. The days I do have energy to go and exercise I take advantage of but the recovery after is very bad. Ill have a good day of exercising but the day after is usually filled with higher anxiety and more soreness then usual. Some days its extremely hard to even just get out of bed in the morning. Ive started seeing a therapist during this period and she has helped alot. Ive been in a flatline since day 1 and I really hope it gets better. I can honestly say im never returning to ■■■■, the desire for it is gone and the urges with it also. This is an extremely hard battle but nevertheless I push on for even a chance of living a normal emotionally regulated life. Best of luck.

The Last and The Beginning

Created my account on February 2022.
Relapsed many times until May 28th, when i started my journey effectively.

And here i am.
January 30th, 2023
8 months,
248 calendar days

I slipped only 3 times within 8 months.
And, this first 2023 no slip at all. After 9 years since 2014, now i say “welcome back to you o my life, my white-chrystal-clear year”. This 2023 is just my early years before the “fall” that had been lost , before i “ate that forbidden fruit”, and i find it back rn. But more than that, now i have it with my full conscious and control as an adult guy, The former was because i was a fool innocent boy. This 2023 is only the beginning of my renewal life, my true journey without enslavement to lust, i know the threat of getting slipped or relapsed again is still exist until this very second, im still aware of it, and i won’t lower my defence. In fact, the enemies are increasing their power, i see them anywhere. All I’m sayin is that the urge and lust are not longer my main focus, otherwise i have to face much enemies like slothness, procrastinating, distortion, demonic symbol, (WEF held a forum when i write this, idk what those mad plans they re making to this world). I don’t know, just an ocean of enemy. But still God is my source of power.

At last, i no longer in this forum for further. There are many mission i got to crush in this life.
My biggest hope for you kings, c’mon y’all can do this. Y’all can do this f*cking stuff. Are you a man? Does a man let himself being a damn stupid weakling?! No kings, no, a man only born for two reason, to build and to fight.
When a man moves himself rather than being played, that’s when the game actually begin.

Because this is my last post, here a bonus for you brothers, i will reveal a bit about myself : My username was suspicious_man (Among Us theme)
I’m 21 years from Indonesia. I’m undergraduate student and this is my last years on campus life. My hobby is reading conspiracy theories , seriously lol, and working out, i am a fan of calisthenics. i do some martial art like Taekwondo and boxing, not a pro, but capable enough for me to know how to punch a big-mouth’s liver.
Well, that’s it.
I hope y’all the best. This is POSSIBLE

46 days without ■■■■ and for the first time I don’t even miss it

I have been trying to quit ■■■■ for many many years now. I tried to quit ■■■■ and masturbation but I keep falling back to my old habits. I have gone the last 46 days without ■■■■. The last time I watched it I told myself that I can masturbate as much as I need to but that ■■■■ is off the table. I have wanted to quit both and still do but I realized that ■■■■ is way worse and quitting both at the same time is extremally difficult. So I decided to exclusively focus on quitting ■■■■ and to not let that filth cloud my brain anymore.

The first couple of weeks were a bit weird but I got used to it quickly. I am able to get off without ■■■■. I also realized that I don’t need to masturbate all the time. I average once every couple of days. I think sometimes that I would want to masturbate as an excuse to watch ■■■■. But since ■■■■ was off the table I just felt like masturbating less.

Now I am at the point that I don’t even miss watching ■■■■. I have no desire to watch it. It is poison for the brain and serves me no good purpose. Maybe I am celebrating too early since I still masturbate, but to me this feels like a major accomplishment.

I only made it this far a few other times and it was painful. That is because I was also not masturbating and all I could think about was watching ■■■■. Eventually I would cave into my desires. But now I don’t have those desires so there is nothing to cave into.

I think I am going to cut down on my masturbation now and maybe at some point give it up all together. Anyways, that’s all I have for today. Thank you if you’ve read the whole thing.

It took me over 2 years to do this…

Hello! I am finally qualified to make a post in this part of the forums. Great!

In 2020, I thought I had my life in good order - a job lined up, daily fitness training, a supportive family, and a girlfriend. I thought I was good in regard to mastering my body and mind. Then I heard the quote: “Try quitting ■■■■ and you’ll find out if you’re addicted.” And to my shock, and shame, I couldn’t quit. In fact, every time I tried to quit, at the end of a hard day or hard couple of days I would find myself back to fap fap fap with more intensity and excitement than the last time. Pathetic, I’d think to myself.

I joined the forums. Read some stories: “I’ve been on NoFap for 7 years before I reached 90 days.” “I’ve been on NoFap for 3 years before I reached 30 days.” It’s okay, you always reach your goals and do most things well. This is no different. Well fuck. This has been one of the hardest things to accomplish in my life and it’s taken me 2 years of serious trying to reach 30 days.

2022 has been a rollercoaster for me, in more ways than one. When I fapped and looked at ■■■■, it’s been less than 5 times each month. So I’m definitely improving. And if I’ve learned anything, it’s that I’m not out of the woods yet. But, I am definitely moving in the right direction. 2023, here we come! Evils of this world (■■■■), I will conquer you!

My way through sissy hell and 50 days of freedom

Hello guys. I decided to share my story here to express my gratitude for abstaining for 50 days now.
I do not consider myself distinctly successful, but I think it belongs here somehow.

Trigger warning: I’m not going to describe details about fapping itself, but sometimes I’ll describe “setting” and preparation of my sessions to emphasize deep of the problem. So if you feel you may be triggered by this just don’t read it. I’ll try to keep it as SFW as possible though.

My PMO slavery started many years ago anyway it takes a lot of time to fully develop some specific kinks. Probably my first deviation was “panties fetish” which very quickly developed to “crossdressing”. I did this for many years and in some phase of my life, I owned a huge shopping bag filled with woman underwear and lingerie. Mostly purchased something stolen either from stores or real women. Although I have to hide it I never really consider it as something harmful. Just an innocent kink.

But it made me think. Am I gay? Am I trans? Even if I dated girls I felt unsure about my sexual identity. Besides it, I develop some other fetishes like hentai, furries, and even zoophilia. I never left any of these kinks so I kept pushing them through my life since my early teens.

And then I discovered sissy fetish. It conveniently expanded my crossdressing and started to fall deeper and deeper into this vortex. Hypno videos, faproulettes (what an evil thing!) and of course all the sex toys, clothes and accessories.

Although I was in a relationship I still continue with this. I was looking forward to moments when I was alone and do all that disgusting stuff. Whenever I got home earlier than my SO I PMOed until she came home. Of course, I had to keep track of her schedule and check her to stay unrevealed. It was crazy and humiliating. I started to lose interest in sex. We broke up several times because of it. (I didn’t even realize it’s because of it - I thought I need space to express myself, but in fact, everything I wanted was to fap).

I opened a bank account for my dirty desires and every month send x % of my income there only to spend it on sex toys and crossdressing accessories. When my SO left for a week or so I was able to spend a whole week in some strange PMO session. Bought clothes, toys, cosmetics, spent days in female underwear, did sissy trainings, enemas, self-humiliation. You name it. I used to edge for many days just to jerk off, sometimes using drugs.

When these sessions ended I felt like I crap. I was disgusted by myself, I discarded all that stuff I spent my money on, I spent a whole week and don’t achieve anything but one crappy orgasm. I was a mess. And I was looking forward to it with a thrill! What a fool.

I could go weeks and months without fapping, but I spent most of my free time thinking about it. I used to believe that it’s the way I’m. That I’m broken filthy freak. I accepted I’ll be like this. That I’ll marry girl, have kids and will hide in a bathroom to fap. That I’ll spend the rest of my life lying.

I tried to quit many times. But I believed I can’t and so I always failed. I was looking for excuses for failure and I’ll always find some. I had no hope at all.

But one day… I’m not sure how this happened exactly. It was many many small things. I proposed to my GF, I started to do my own business, we traveled for some time, we went to some partner course, I started to wonder about God… And I just decided I want to stop for good. I did maybe 3 days on my own and then I signed up here. I met guys here who helped me understand my kinks and more importantly explained to me I’m not unfixably broken and all that shit was induced by ■■■■. I got hope. And it was the breaking point. I believed I can beat it and I can have a normal life.

I felt incredibly freely. After so many years of despair and humiliation! All these make it unbelievably easy to quit. I still wonder why I did that for so long? Wonder why I was so incredibly stupid.

My life feels so fulfilled and happy now. I enjoy the simplest stuff in the world. Birds singing, street cats, trees in blossom. Also, I feel an amazing improvement in my sex life. We don’t make love more often, maybe even less than before, but every act is so great and fulfilling. I really feel a deeper connection than ever.
I also have more time and confidence to focus on my work and hobbies. I started writing again after so many years (in my teens I was a poet), just for fun and for people I like.

It’s been just 50 days, but it changed my life more than it changed in years. I just feel happier and more confident. I feel I become a better person.

I hope my story may be helpful for others and I’m so glad I can share it with you. Thanks to anybody who read the whole thing, you’re great.

Good luck to all of you guys

I think Im about to hit 7 months.I dont count anymore. some advice

7 months Hard Mode. The first weeks or even 2 first months are an excruciating and expaserating asceticism for any man. One important trick is to grow truly disgusted with the act of PMO. Normally, many nofap people think semen is a precious liquid. However semen is also a slimy,sticky susbtance,so expelling it in porpouse could be associated with manipulation of faeces.
I cant talk about magical solutions, life-changing meditation courses or supreme gurus. its about grit,stone-to-muscle primal confrontation. in the end, the most vulnerable times are just before sleeping and right after waking up. If you beat these 2 hurdles,the day may be won.
Also ,maybe dont use nofap forums the first 2-5 weeks. dont remind yourself you are in anti-PMO, stop considering that PMO even exists at all.
No one says “im on a streak to avoid eating rotten fruit”. most people rarely ponder upon the concept and practice of “eating rotten fruit”. you must banish the very idea of this act from your general life.

1 year – changed my life considering sexuality, willpower & being comfortable in my own skin

NoFap has drastically changed my life considering sexuality, willpower and being comfortable in my own skin and I can say that after a year, I am so very thankful to you guys, words cannot describe it.

With the help of NoFap I’ve had a great relationship to a girl that before I would never dare to start up a conversation with, was confortable to have fun with girls when I was single, and am currently in a relationship.

I now also exercise daily as a rule, am learning to play the guitar, and generally feel better and am more positive.

Tl;dr: NoFap is the shit. Thank you!

1 year – ED, laziness, back pain gone. Much more productive, emotional, focused, motivated, talkative, and engaging

Before I stumbled upon NoFap one year ago, I was fapping 1-3 times a day, yes, that was 365 – 1095 times a year for around 20 years.

After reading posts, and exploring more, and putting in hard work, I’ve lowered that frequency. Here are my one year stats since I started this journey- please note I got better every month, with some binges in-between, so my averages are higher than my recent months.

Yearly Fapping Average: 7 days a month/11 ejaculations a month, so cut my daily sessions by 75% and when I do fap it’s under 2 times a day. That’s one fap every 4 days as opposed to every day. Doesn’t sound like much, but many of you should know how it is an accomplishment for someone like me. In reality, I usually can go 1-3 weeks, and then binge for 1-4 days. But my body and mind don’t fall into the Living Hell like it used to because the days off really help the brain and energy levels.

Best streak: 60 days

Average Top Streak length per month: 15 days

Negative streak (fapping days in a row): 7 days, only once

Average negative streak: 3 days instead of every day.

So how am I? Well, I am much more productive, emotional, focused, motivated, talkative, and engaging.

I’ve been studying YourBrainonPorn, InnerGold, YourBrainRebalanced, YouTube videos from members here, RecoveryNation, CandeoBehaviorChange, Zen Buddhism, Alan Watts, Anthony Robbins, and other topics. Getting the right mindset and meditating has helped…

I’ve been strengthening my prefrontal cortex by doing all the math subjects on Khan’s Academy and learning Javascript from CodeAcademy and a text book.

Since I’m not fapping all the time or thinking about escorts/massage parlors/craigslist guys or gals, etc. I’m actually exercising 5 days a week. Equally importantly, I’m eating right- have phased out junk food and focus on getting the right foods in my system.

I sleep around 7+ hours the same time every night. No more feeling excitable.

Oh, and I was suffering from ED, but it’s working just fine now, thank you. :slightly_smiling_face: Sex is normal.

Laziness? Gone. Backpain? Gone. Dried skin? Gone.
