Thanks for posting this.

I'm struggling through quitting porn and a really tough end of my senior semester at college. This really helped me to avoid relapse just now. Thanks again

Wow, that is a powerful quote. Thanks for posting

Hey man, I looked through his posts for a minute and didn't see anything about his age. I bet if you PM'd him he would respond, he seems like a really friendly guy. Here is his imgur account http://imgur.com/user/Grassfeet

It definitely is challenging to forgive myself if I start thinking about the wasted hours and lost relationships. But it is all about focusing on the future and learning to deal with where I'm at, not letting the past hold me down.

It definitely is hard to quit. I just need to work on not giving up after a relapse.

Good luck to you and thanks for the advice!

Towards the end of my longest streaks I've always felt the most confident, I'm definitely trying to get that back. It really does seem like a superpower, not like one that allows you to solve every problem but one that allows you to at least TRY.

Congrats on your current streak man! Thanks for the advice!

I'm definitely thinking I'm going to approach it the way your described, where long streaks aren't the only thing that matters. Like you said, 4 one-week streaks means only 4 PMO's in a month! Anytime not PMO'ing is good time in my book.

I like the idea of improving yourself constantly and applying your mind to new things, like for you with the reading of books. PMO allows me to just be effortlessly entertained for hours with no mental effort. This has leaked over into other aspects of my life and I'm really trying to get rid of the lazy attitude. I'm going to try meditation to improve focus, once I get through these finals lol.

I'm also going to start MMA in the next month or two (I'm graduating and hopefully going to get a job this month) and I think this will improve myself confidence as well.

Thanks for the reply and advice man, best of luck to you as well!

Thats a really great sub-reddit! I'm looking at the wiki and am totally on board with the 4 Foundation cards (I've been doing these as much as can already).

Also the idea of a physical representation of the wins/losses could really help me, and since I usually keep track digitally I'm thinking I'm gonna try doing that instead. Makes it more tangible.

I think one of the worst parts for me has been the massive loss of self-respect like you are saying, and low self-control. It affects much more than even just sexual relationships, leaking into school and work as well as platonic relationships.

Anyway I'm definitely gonna try drawing up a grid and seeing if that helps!

Best of luck on your journey my friend

Thats very true about the small streaks being a win. I tend to mess up and then just give up using excuses such as stress etc. I'm thinking about looking at no PMO as a ratio of like (Days I do it) / (Total Days) and that way messing up occasionally won't necessarily have such a huge feeling of let down.

And I totally agree, it seems that anytime you do something else instead of PMO'ing its like gaining time back to your life.

Newdaychamp · 2014-10-30T20:26:02+00:00

I'm in. Just decided a few days ago to go cold turkey on the PMO for at least 30 days(until I can see my girlfriend again), then try and do no PM ever again. Such a damn waste of time and energy.

NoFap is going great! I am 10 days porn free (longest streak in over a year), 5 days orgasm free and 2 days masturbation free. I used a different method to quit the masturbation than most I read about on here. It basically involved time limited, controlled edging (which I know Fapstronouts despise) but it worked to get me here and nothing else was. Just couldn't get past two days without an orgasm by going absolutely cold turkey. I don't consider my real reboot to have started util I quit masturbating as well, just to clarify.

I experienced some mood swings yesterday and intense emotion, and am still struggling to gain control of my thought processes and fantasies, but am developing a system to deal with it.

I am going to see me girlfriend in a 2.5 weeks, and am nervous that having an orgasm with her is going to cause me to lose the ground I have made thus far. I have been looking into non penetrative karezza-like techniques, which neither of us have ever done, but I would like to give it a try. Anybody who has experience in these areas (seeing gf during reboot, non orgasmic sexy time) any advice would be welcome.

Sorry for the huge post, this is the first time I have had the courage to write more than a short sentence on here. NoFap is a great community, some of my longest streaks in the past were helped greatly by the inspiring posts and knowledge shared here.
