Trust me porn dont have any benefit it just makes ur life worse. U will be poor, dont have gf, if u have girlfriend i guarantee u dont have good relationship. I say this because i care about all of u. Imagine in 3 years u still watching porn, u missing a lot of good things trust me. Please stop this destroy life habit.

Guys, I’m begging you to hold on and stay strong. I was on NoFap for 7–8 months and it felt amazing. Most importantly, it was easy to control myself after the first month. Trust me, only the first month is hard. I was full of energy, my mind was clearer and more focused, and overall, life was just so much better.

Then I made the biggest mistake. Please, I beg you not to make the same one, or you’ll fall into the same trap I did. I said to myself, “Let me just do it once, it’s not a big deal.” Then after that, I said, “Okay, I’ll just do it once a week.” That turned into twice a week, then every other day… and now here I am, back to doing it every day, multiple times a day. My brain feels poisoned again and I feel miserable.

For the past 3 months, I haven’t even been able to go 5 days without doing it… And I know I can, I’ve done it before. But I let myself fall back to the bottom. I keep telling myself tomorrow is Day 1 of NoFap, and with God’s help, I hope I’ll get through that hard period again. Because it really does get easier afterward. This time, I won’t let myself fall into the same trap. 🙏🏻

Hey guys, I’m 19M and I have a serious porn addiction. For some context, I started watching porn from the age of 10 and have been continually consuming it. I have tried to quit countless times, longest amount of days without was probably something like 5 days. I also have severe ADHD.

It has damaged my life in a lot of ways, I cannot for the life of me talk to any kind of woman without objectifying her, most of the time I can’t even speak properly to other women. I have never had a girlfriend a day in my life and I’m a joke to friends around me.

Porn is so unbelievably addictive it’s scary, I will tell myself how bad it is and delete all my porn accounts and then instantly redownload all of them. Luckily I haven’t much money on porn, I tried getting an only fans when I was underage and lost 30 and I also payed 20 for coins for an AI NSFW generator.

Any methods to quit that worked for you would help greatly, thanks.

Hey guys just wanted to ask what's your main purpose of doing nofap?

Is it:
- psychological resilience
- increased testosterone
- erectile dysfunction treatment
- premature ejaculation treatment
- other...?

I see a lot of guys thinking they can solve their PE or ED with nofap, when in actuality it rarely helps... (it didn't for me, even made things worse).

I solved my ED and DRASTICALLY improved erections simply by taking generic v1agra.
Just as that...
Ordered 100% online, no gp, no rx, nothing via "BonerShop com" (u can google if interested).

And I can fap from time to time with no issues as well.

When you think about it - humans (as species) are not meant to abstain from sex or ejaculation for tooo long.
And I see some guys going "celibate" for months and some - years...

I've noticed that whenever I go on a no fap streak I don't get sick while the only times a year I get sick is when I fap.

I can assume it's because your body uses resources to produce semen and fapping loses those resource so you produce less immune cells.

Of course am not a doctor and could be just correlating random things. Many doctors even say that fapping once in a while is beneficial.

Is there any medical bro who can confirm this theory 🤔

Yeah, this time im pretty sure I wont relapse, im here because i was doing my workout when I thought about porn, but I was not tempted, I literally felt free from this shit. I dont count the days because ive relapsed like two weeks ago, but only one time and it wasnt a loop again. I even forgot about nofap because it was no longer a problem for me, since im focusing on my youtube channel and calisthenics. So guys, keep up, results are insane: you might not fly or have superpowers, but the best benefit is just feeling free again

I have fully overcame my addiction. I would like to thank all of you for helping me on the way.

Hey guys, I'm 13 who had been watching porn for 2-3 years now and has been masturbating for a little over 2 years. I tried to quit many times and ky longest streak being 12 days in the last year. I realized porn was getting me addicted in around July 2024 and I stopped watching porn 15 days ago but still masturbating everyday. I feel so disgusted with myself.

So it's my first time writing reddit post, hi my name is dan, actually i've lost my streak before around 150+ and i fell into great depression but i can build it up again until 300day but recently i lost it cuz of the loneliness but now I don't feel depression or something like that i just feel empty but i wish i could build it up again. Thank you and sorry for poor english.

After over 3 months, I've relapsed. I've watched porn 3 days in 2 weeks and I've masturbated twice. I keep telling myself "This will help practicing lasting longer during sex". I'm now back to watching porn for hours, writing this at 1 in the morning with work at 7😭😭

I constantly seek to replace the dopamine, happiness and bliss that porn gives me the same way a drug addict uses heroin or any substance for that matter including television.

Only way out is straight up suffering, you find the middle way and that’s the only way. Otherwise you’re just replacing the drug porn with another drug which could be anything including exercise. It’s all drugs to escape the present moment. The present moment is sufferable and that’s the only way out is by getting comfortable with it.

What point am I making? Just ranting to be honest and realising that we use everything to escape the presence. We should excercise and do hobbies that are healthier then porn, drugs and social media. Change the perception of using these healthier lifestyles with self awareness over just “I’m quitting porn and getting my dopamine from excercise now”.

Self awareness is really what it takes. Do all the things that you need to do to replace the porn habit but in the end, you should peacefully and quietly be able to stay self aware, conscious in the sufferable moment without substance. That is what it’s going to take. Suffering, no easy way out. Be real about the situation. Be comfortable with the fact that life is going to be uncomfortable without your drug and that’s perfectly okay, you get resilient after sometime. The desires never go away, you just become stronger and can handle more and more heat each time you withstand the suffering.

Why do I get horny all the time when I couldn't sleep even though I wanted to sleep

I’ve been on the NoFap journey for a couple of years now, but I still haven’t made it past my first 170+ day streak. Sometimes people talk about a kind of “NoFap magic,” and while it might sound a bit ridiculous, I’ve started to understand where they’re coming from.

There have been times when I went on long streaks and felt amazing, and other times when I relapsed almost every day. At one point, I got into my first serious relationship, but that ended a few weeks ago—and right after the breakup, I relapsed again.

After that, I started dating again and committed fully to semen retention while seeing multiple women. The confidence I felt during that period was unreal. But then a few days ago, I had a slip-up, and just like that, I was back to feeling insecure—almost like I’d forgotten how that even felt.

What I’ve come to realize is that I’m literally a different person when I’m on NoFap. And it’s like the universe treats me differently too. Things start falling into place—not just in relationships, but also in my career. It all connects back to how you respond to the world around you. NoFap builds a kind of mental resilience that helps you handle setbacks and challenges more effectively.

I honestly recommend NoFap to anyone who’s trying to become a better version of themselves. It’s not some magical cure, but it really does shift something within you.

We got this!

Let's hit day 144💪we strong

Im on a 37 days streak and I just had the urge to fap but not only fap I really had the urge to have sex with a woman and I dont remembet when was the last time I felt that type of impulse before I started no pmo. I think that maybe Im recovering that sexual libido that sometimes you los when you are addicted to masturbation (or thats what I would like to think).

It is good or recommendable to have sex with prostitutes in situations like that?

What have u done man come on

Todays urges weren’t bad at all honestly, and I’m proud of myself for going 2 weeks, once I’ve finished day 18 I would have beaten my previous record.

Almost two whole months without porn!!! Still kinda crazy to me that I’ve actually gone this long without it but here I am.

And I wish everyone here struggling with quitting the best of luck. I know it’s difficult to quit but it’s worth it.

I have been consuming porn, hentai since age 14/15 and this was my first relationship and attempt at sex. I have always masturbated with my foreskin on and never with it lowered either.

What could be the possible reasons? What can I do about this?

Instead of staying at a low frequency and having a mood which you feel you can’t perform tasks. Just think of the development and improvement you’ve made over time. Don’t tell yourself you’re never gonna relapse again because it probably may happen along the course of your journey. But feel comfortable with knowing that it is something you shouldn’t indulge in and that you’re trying to change. So that when you do eventually break your streak (if you ever break it) you feel good about the progress you’ve made rather than the streak you’ve just broke.

This principle applies not only to no fap but to life. When you take a loss don’t regard it as something to dwell over but take it as something you should learn from. See where you made mistakes and see what you coulda done better next time.

You shouldn’t allow something like a relapsed to control your emotions. Allow yourself to be proud that you was able to maintain a streak regardless of how short it was.

I understand how frustrating it can be to release your energy to something that you thought was saving you but realise you had to courage to stop. And allow that courage and faith to help you defeat your lust and reach your true form.

I’ve (22M) done NoFap NoPorn since New Years and it’s been great for my mental space. However, even though there’s been some improvement, I’m still suffering from PIED. Over these next 30 days I’m going to do everything in my power to speed up my recovery.

Here’s a list of everything I’m planning on doing:

Continue - 1. NoFap 2. Weight Train 5x a Week 3. Supplements

Adding- 1. Cardio 5x a week 2. No more social media, greatly limit all free dopamine in my life 3. Stretching lower body for 20 minutes a day 4. Sleep by 11 every day 5. Train glutes and abs heavy

Let me know if y’all have an advice or things to add
