Helen Bichard, Christopher Byrne, Christopher W. N. Saville, and Rudi Coetzer Neuropsychological Rehabilitation (in review) Abstract This paper reviews the neurological, cognitive, psychological, and behavioural outcomes of non-fatal strangulation and, given shared physiological mechanisms, asks whether the hypoxic-ischaemic literature can serve as a proxy. 27 empirical, peer-reviewed studies were found which met the inclusion criteria. Neurological […]
I just wanted to let u know it gets better!! I’m 24M. I was having issues w girls & was even scared to have sex bc I was scared if I could get it up from previous problems. That mindset made me watch porn instead of being with actual girls. But now I’m on the […]
It’s disgusting that I even have to admit this. My mind has been poisoned with porn from age 11, this is my longest streak without porn in my life (55 days as I write this). I’ve always wanted a girlfriend and still do. When I was in school, girls were an alien species to be […]

I feel like what I have been through is a story of hope for anyone anywhere! I went from being a virgin who developed PIED in his late twenties/early thirties to porn- and largely-PIED-free!I was really conservative in high school, college and post-college. The communities I was in then reinforced what they called “purity” or […]

Day 70. I’m 26, been addicted to porn and excessive masturbation since I was 12. I started trying nofap when I was 18 and have had many streaks going a couple weeks but mostly I would go months of watching porn several times per day, I could PMO 10 times if I was just home […]
I just reached the longest streak since I started NoFap 4 years ago. It has been a wild ride, and you know what? It is totally worth it. Doing this challenge hasn’t given me super powers or the like. But it has allowed me to focus on the parts of my life that I have […]
I started this journey because I didn’t feel good, because of all the negative effects this addiction had on me. PIED, Anxiety, Depression, Disturbing thoughts, NOW I feel awesome! [My PIED] is cured. [I was watching] some really weird stuff, just like almost every addict lol. It takes way more than just willpower. Willpower will […]

When I first got introduced to this subreddit I was drawn in by the people claiming they had gotten superpowers of sorts. However, one thing I have learnt is that there are no superpowers to be gained. Semen isn’t some holy liquid that grants you power. What nofap does it help you feel more confident […]
