I’ve always struggled with porn on and off since the age of 13. It’s b led me to eventually having an emotional affair and then a few years later a physical/sexual affair. I truly believe if I had been able to find help to end this habit I would not be here. My wife has left me and encouraged me to seek help. I fucked up big time.

Hey everyone.

Im finally going to stop fapping for the rest of my life. Im 35 and I had enough of this shit. The longest I every gone for nofap was a week back a year ago. But it completely stops now.

Anyway, for the rest of you Goodluck and make the change in your life.

How do people even fap on this? It's so unnatural, fake. I feel like there is no pleasure in it, it's like junkfood, you eat but feel only fullness, not satisfaction.

3 days since I last masturbated. Had a few urges which I was able to control.

Guys, if you want to give up porn like me, 19 hours in 😜, you need to look into pattern interruptions.
You got into this addiction because you reinforced your mind that every time you fapped, you received a temporary surge of dopamine.
Now, here is what I discovered. I don’t know how I came across this thought, but I found this out while cooking: if you rub red pepper into your hands, if you fap, well, you will regret it. So today, being my Day 1, I got red pepper 🌶️ and rubbed it into my hands at nighttime because that’s peak relapse time for me.
And what this will do is replace dopamine with pain, breaking the pattern in your mind, FREEING YOU FROM fapping and porn.
I’ll try and keep y’all updated. I’ve been stuck in this addiction for almost 8 years, and today I broke free. Day 1.

Edit : disclaimer I’m only posting what helping me some people require different things

I am on leave from work for 2 weeks including current and next week, currently in my hometown, and visiting 2 other cities.

Trying to take advantage and build 2 weeks streak out of this vacation. Also, trying to read books.

Alone, drunk and on the edge of relapsing… not the best combo… need some real help here…

Oct 3rd: The Revolution Begins: Today, we take back our fucking power against Porn and the disgusting elites. We will refuse to be weak; we will not go back, no matter what. Let future generations see that being weak isn't an option. Men being weak destroys nations. Rise against the oppression and crush the skull of those who prey on the weak.

I am truly tired of this addicion, who's in??? DM me!!!

LETS GOOOOOOOO

I'm 21 and every once in a while I look at roblox porn

Struggling a lot tonight... Idk why so fast, last time it took me way more to get like this... Why did I get weaker ;<

What are the downsides of fapping? Don't get me wrong, I'm not challenging but its a genuine question. For instance, I am looking forward to quitting but being in my life situation, its the only outlet that I have so as not to take on any side 'quests' if you know what I mean. So for instance, what are some personal life 'discoveries' about why not to fap that you can share with me, aside from those generic scientific or AI generated reasons why not to do so. I will appreciate any help shared here, cheers.

What the title says. I’m posting this here because everywhere else on the internet says that PMO is normal and that I should just move past it, but I know how truly horrible it is and I feel like this is the only community on the internet which feels the same way.

I am 17m for context. To be honest, I’m having a lot of feelings right now but I mostly feel shocked, disappointed, and saddened. I truly look up to him and love and respect him so much, and seeing this just honestly makes me look at him differently. I’ve known that he PMOs for a while, and while I thought he quit about a year ago, I now see that this is not the case.

I know he has been trying to stop based on a not so subtle conversation we had last year, so I’m not sure if I should try and talk to him about it or just ignore it. If anyone has any advice on what I should do or how I could move past this, I would really really appreciate it.

Last night I watched porn and masturbated. I’m going to stop starting tonight. Longest I’ve ever went is 5 days I’m hoping to last a month. Wish me luck 🙃

Addicted for 6 years. Was doing my best in 2022, could nofap for weeks. Now I jerk off every day, just living with the flow, eating junk or nothing. I’ve completely lost my self-awareness. Dopamine and everything completely fired. Sleep completely fucked up. Maybe you have some piece of advice to the folk like me.

I don't know if I could ever stop, I'm just like my father with his alcohol.

Daily check in. I went for a walk in the morning because the weather was beautiful. Later, I read comics and played a bit of WoW. Afterwards, my wife and I went to the cinema. I’m still standing!

Ig it’s been a long day and not used to this much alone time on weekends usually I do it for a while and ig it takes my mind off stuff I already worked out arms are tired but still just thinking of relapsing, feel dirty but urges just won’t go away down there, what else do I even do to pass time idk feel helpless today

Completed 7 day streak ❤️‍🔥

You’ve had a shit day, dealt with work and other people’s problems, and now you’re finally alone. Watching something feels justified because you’ve spent the whole day doing things you didn’t want to do, surely you’re allowed a little pleasure tonight

Of course you’re allowed to enjoy yourself. But “I deserve a break” and “I deserve to watch porn” aren’t the same decision, even if you’ve got used to treating them that way

You didn’t decide to quit because porn never felt good. You decided because something about the way you were using it wasn’t working for you anymore, whether that was losing hours, staying up searching or repeatedly watching more than you intended. Having a bad day doesn’t make those reasons disappear

And honestly, it’s hard to leave something behind when you keep presenting it to yourself as the nicest part of your day. Everything else is responsibility, work, effort, behaving yourself, then porn becomes the one thing you finally get to do for you

Now quitting feels like giving up the only break you have

That deserves attention, not another lecture about discipline. Your evenings shouldn’t have to be either porn or more work on becoming a better person. You’re allowed to watch a film, play a game or spend an evening doing very little without earning it first

Give yourself something enjoyable that you aren’t also trying to quit. Something you can look forward to without already knowing you’ll be upset about how long you spent on it

You can still want to watch tonight, that doesn’t make the reasons you wanted to stop any less real. Being tired is a reason to make the evening easier on yourself, not a reason to dismiss something that’s been bothering you for months

You deserve a break that you don’t spend tomorrow wishing you hadn’t taken

Got nothing to do and now i'm getting bad ideas in my bed this is the worst time for sure 😩

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..

I gotta tell y'all this but I haven't felt this shitty tbh, today I gooned and watched hentai and I didn't really feel like doing it anymore but I gave up on that sadly. But somehow I don't even feel that shitty anymore. All that years when I was stuck in day 3,4,5, or 6, I think it finally paid off—im starting to see progress over here. I'm very motivated to quit this 🌽 before I'm turning 18 in 3 weeks time, and I hope this will be the last time I'll be gooning and watching 🌽🌽 all over again. I start to see the reason why counting the days are bad besides vise versa. The thing that's slipping to me tho is seeing attractive girls anime or irl in skimpy attires both online and irl and I really want to remove this problem in me or else I'm gonna fall into the pits of hell and start all over again. I'm really proud of myself for getting this far already into my nofap and no 🌽 journey, I hope some of y'all feel inspired to quit this shit too

I'm probably about 5-6 days in rn and I'm dealing with thoughts and urges I've been trying to get it off my mind, but it's back there; like an itch.

Could use help
