August 29 - I’m a musician in my late twenties, and I have had a problems with my sex life ever since i can remember. Firstly, I have never had a real girlfriend, so you can also tell that I have not developed a healthy sexuality either. I have been masturbating more or less regularly since the age of thirteen, and while most of the time I didn’t do it but maybe 1-3 times a week, there has been times when it was daily and even multiple times a day.
Мен 23 жаштын тегерегинде эле бир кыз менен биринчи жолу жыныстык өр тартып калган эле, андан кийин мен бир түнү ай жубайларга турат чейин кыска мөөнөттүү сексуалдык мамилелерге карата он чейинки болчу. Өзгөчө, башында мен кыздарга ашык болуп иштеп чыгуу үчүн колдонулат, бирок бир нече учурлары кийин сезимдерин өнүктүрүү үчүн эмес, үйрөнгөн жана физикалык ушинтишти. Эгерде баары мен, мени, курчуган, эреже катары, ал мен Канат алган бир топ убакыт өткөндөн кийин гана өтө оор экенин көрүштү. Бир канча убакыт өткөндөн кийин, мен Аргентина боюнча берген жана аялдар гана багытталган. Биз болжогондой, бир аз убакыт өткөндөн кийин таптакыр кызыксыз туруп, биринин артынан басып толкунданып төмөн жана төмөнкү алды.
Around 2 жыл мурун мен бул көйгөй бар деп баштады, ал да Мени менен бирге, эмне туура эмес экенин билүү үчүн жасалган аракет деп издеп жанын баштады. Мен аны аялдар менен сезимдерин өнүктүрүү үчүн оор, мен жоголгон себеп сезип баштады жана жумушчу жана кызыгуусу боюнча көп багытталган. Мен дагы эле Курма чыгып, ал тургай, дээрлик 6 ай бою жакшы аял менен бир мамиледе болгон, бирок ошол эле учурда бул жыныстагы адам менен болгон достук сездим эле соолуп.
Эми былтыр ичкиликтен дээрлик биротоло баш тартып, такай машыгып, медитация жана мушташ өнөрү менен алектене баштадым. Көп өтпөй мен өзүм жөнүндө жана жаңы сезимдер жөнүндө кандайдыр бир көрүнүштөрдү көрө баштадым жана ал мен үчүн негизги көйгөй порнолор экендигин түшүндүм. Мен аны бир нече ай мурун таштоого аракет кылдым, бирок ар дайым бир жумадан кийин кайтып келдим, анткени мен допаминдердин ошол бөлүгүн эңсеп жүргөм. Бирок, ошол эле учурда, мен көрүп калган катуу өзөктүү нерселер чындыгында жийиркеничтүү болгондуктан, мен дагы порно порнолорун издеп жүрдүм. Анан мен YBOP сайтын эстедим жана ошол жерден ушул сайтка кирдим. Айтып кетишим керек, бул сайтта бардыгы чындыгында мен үчүн мааниге ээ.
Мен 4 жума мурун порнодон баш тарттым, ошондон бери артка кайрылган жокмун. Бул апталар мен үчүн дагы деле кыйын болду, анткени акчаны алып салуу таасири чоң! Буга чейин менде уйкусуздук, көк топтор, жыныс мүчөм ооруп, сийүүгө болгон каалоо күчөп, маанайым көтөрүлүп кетти. Ошондой эле кээде ушунчалык коркуп кетсем, эмне кылышымды билбейм! Бул мен үчүн жаңылык, анткени мен мурунку сезимимди MOing менен байланыштыргам - эми чыныгы тирүү аял жөнүндө ойлонуп жатам. Өзүмө жаккан кызды ойлоп гана ойгонуп кеттим! Ошондой эле, мен эч кандай порно көргүм келген жок, эгерде кокустан жылаңач сүрөттү көргөн болсом, анда МОго жетине алган жокмун. Менин таңкы токойлорум кайтып келип, алар массивдүү болуп калышты.
Ошондой эле жакында эле өзүмө жаккан кыз менен тааныштым. Биз азырынча жыныстык катнашта болгон жокпуз же ал жөнүндө көп сүйлөшө элекпиз, бирок мен аны менен жакын болуп, аны кучактап жатканда же аны менен бийлегенде анын энергиясын сезгенден рахат алам. Менин маанайым жана уйкусуздугум бир аз кыйынчылыктарды жаратат, анткени алар мени кээде какшыган, чыдамы жок ж.б. Мен аны кашык менен уктап жатканда, каргышка калган түнү бою кыйналдым - уктап калуу кыйын болду. 
Ушундан улам ал жеңилдеп, ал мени соттобойт деп үмүттөнөм, анткени узак убакыттан бери биринчи жолу чыныгы мамилеге баргым келди. Эртерээк жашоодогу порнону кесип таштай албаганыма өзүмдү жаман сезем, бирок акыры жасаганыма кубанганга аракет кылып жатам!
The blue ball -effect is horrible, feels like the whole organ is about to explode. Luckily it isn’t there every night anymore. Seems like my body is readjusting judging from the increased need o urinate, and i think the consistency of the urine is also a bit different from before. Very intriquing journey to say at least!
Weed smoking + melatonin seems to help with the insomnia, but then again it also raises the libido so I don’t know if it a good idea right now. Even though, now when I feel it, I do not project my thoughts to porn anymore, but more to real women that i like.
I find it interesting though, that before when i tried to quit, i had high urge to MO almost every day but now it’s like it’s disappeared totally? I don’t know what happened?

this girl is moving this weekend. After our last meeting few days ago we haven’t communicated much and i feel she is taking a distance so i’m giving her space now, even though i have to admit it would like to have some closeness now.
Still i’m kinda enjoying the fact that i’m having feelings – makes me feel alive.
No morning wood , no blue balls or any sexual cravings today.

Moodswings are radical. Yesterday I was feeling very good again after about two days of feeling unconfident and anxious. Flatline continues. Otherwise the same.

I’ve now gotten back my sex life, and had another successfull coitus (100% success rate this year).
I still feel like all that cuddling, touching etc is actually nicer than the actual intercourse. Just feels great to have a woman admiring your body and being all over you 🙂
Feels like I have conquered this dragon. Even though I have been reintroduced into a sexlife, I have managed to control my sexdrive. There has not been any noticeable chaser effects after my O’s, and there’s no interested in self-MO at all. On the other hand (lol) my sex drive itself is rather low and I don’t have much interest in the female counterpart. Instead of chasing the P, I have been focusing a lot on self-improvement. I’ve been working fervently on my martial arts (even attempting 4. kyu at ju jutsu this weekend) and music on my limited spare time, and there’s not many days in a month when I’m not either at the dojo, gym or studio. I have no interest in getting drunk or partying late, as I rather go to sleep early to wake up more refreshed!
I feel like the female isn’t as “frightening” as it was before, and I don’t feel like I need a drink to be able to function with them. Seems like on some days I’m very attractive to the women in general, but there are still days when it’s the opposite. Very rarely do I feel depressed, anxious or lonely anymore.
So, to summarize – I feel like this reboot program was a great jump start to conquering the mind. After conquering the dragon of porn addiction, other addictions seem much easier to tackle. I believe the aim is to conquer the mind and the five senses, ie. crucifying the senses so that they won’t be leading me astray, but they would be under the control of the mind working FOR me and not against me anymore. Being addicted to porn links many senses – the touch, the sight, the hearing and also the mind. Controlling the sense of taste means to keep a proper diet and not eat harmful stuff etc. Sure there are more levels to this, like integrity and charitability, but this is a good place to climb up.

EARLIER COMMENT FROM SAME THREAD
I started a new journal last autumn since I hadn’t gotten rid of the original problem which was the DE, and I did go back to PMOing occasionally for almost a year before last october I decided to let it go permanently. Since then, I haven’t had any urges watch P or MO, and I don’t seem to connect horniness with touching my penis anymore. Seems like a good place to be!
Well, on new years eve I had my tantric partner with me (with whom I hadn’t had sex yet at that point) and on the first day of this year our tantric practises went to the point in which we had to decide whether we would like to go ‘all the way’. Well, eventually we did. And it was a success from the beginning until the end. I didn’t have any ED problems, and I managed to get my first “unforced” orgasm ever – after only about 15minutes of penetrational sex!
So, I got my first natural orgasm ever even though that was not the plan. Surprisingly, it wasn’t strong, especially when compared to some of the most intense PMOs I had years ago, but still a progress. It gave me tons of esteem, since now I know I can do it if necessary, and I could probably even reproduce if I ever wanted that.
Even though this is just a beginning of a new pathway, I still consider it a success! This programme works, people!
I’m still working those two dead-end jobs, but earning a nice buck. Been investing in my hobbies and some clothes and even managed to save up some. I finished the album I was working on, and it should be released next month, kinda cool! Lots and lots of ideas poppin’ into my head, so I feel like I have unlocked my creativity finally! I’m already thinking about producing another one lol and shooting some music videos on my trusty super8 film camera.

Day 28 – A week has passed since my last update with a major flatline. Generally very low mood, feeling quite asexual and even entertaining an idea of becoming a monk (i do practise zen and martial arts, although haven’t been to the dojo all summer until yesterday). Loss of motivation for almost anything other than eating, although i’ve forced myself to start the physical exercises again (jogging, gym & martial arts) which does improve my mood momentarily after workout. Had one or two better days this week but heck this is getting frustrating. Drank maybe one beer and smoked two puffs of weed all week. Basically haven’t kept contact with women this week except some random flirting with random women at malls etc. Feeling like this girl i talked about is slipping away from me but i’m not even interested (or even able to in this mood) to do anything about it now.
On the other hand, the insomnia seems to be cured, although i still like to take 5mg of melatonin almost every night before going to sleep.

Day 35 – That relationship is now out of the picture as she decided she does not want a relationship in her current life situation. Of course I felt a bit sad, but accepted it and let her go. Two days After that I went clubbing, got a lot of attention from young women, but none of them REALLY appealed to me. Ended up kissing with one of them tho but decided to leave it to that. Next morning i was feeling very tense ‘downstairs’ so i decided that too much is too much, and checked some nude stills and ended up MO. It helped and I didn’t feel bad or disgusted afterwards.
On the other hand i feel a bit disappointed that i failed in keeping strictly no PMO but my overall feeling is good. The sensitivity had risen and the soft core stills were enough stimulation. Almost like being a teenager again! I’m going to continue without P or PMO again as I noticed it has a positive effect on me. Maybe next time that I meet someone, I will be ready instead of an emotional rollercoaster ride.

I’ll drop even the stills for now. I feel like it would be a good idea to limit my facebook usage to minimum as well and spend the time on meditation or something creative. One of my problems lately has been too much work and not enough sleep. I notice that when i’m tired I get depressed more easily and it’s more difficult to ‘fight’ the negative thoughts. I also don’t have energy to interact with people so it’s a double negative. We will soon have a break from touring which means I will have more free time. I’m planning on using it to sleeping and resting for first few days. I’ve met another girl recently whom I seem to fancy, but this time i’m taking things slooow. So far we have only talked, cuddled a bit with some light touching. I kinda like it though as my skin is very sensitive!

Day 7- Feeling better. Still very tired and lathergic usually, but i guess it has more to do with not getting enough and regular sleep. Today I decided not to do anything, hanged out with a female friend and my roommates, enjoyed a long jacuzzi session, good foor and couple of beers. At the end I was very relaxed and got horny, so I decided to M without P. Managed to get my first O without P since my teenage years I guess!
I’m still going to keep even the MO w/o P to minimum, but I see this as a progress! As a single man I have to allow myself some pleasure at some time. Altghough I believe it is not far away that I could actually be having more physical relationships with women in the future. Got my first booty call in ages although I couldn’t answer it this time 8) So i guess something has changed after 1,5months of rebooting. In any case, i think i have had three orgasm in that time – all of them without much/any visual stimulation. Quite an accomplishment!

Just dropping by to let ya’ll know I’m doing fine! I’m now on day 33 on my 2nd attempt on noPMO program and day 22 on my noMO set.
Noticed an long awaited increase in motivation in life & career, usually better mood, healthier sex drive which is no longer directed at P and MO but rather to real women. Although I haven’t pursued any relationships or sex in these past 4 weeks at all, and therefore do not have GF or any sex/cuddlebuddies either. I’ve been directing my sexual energy towards creativity and exercixe – and on both fields I’m thriving!
So everything is ok, I’m just spending more time on yourbrainrebalanced.com which is more about my issues for now. I’ll check in here also to let ya’ll know of any significant changes. Haven’t had any noticeable urges to MO or even watch P since my last relapse and it is good. Feels like my brain is rewiring itself finally!
So, stay strong my brothers and sisters. If you have an addiction, you can beat it by having great discipline and good motivation. The rewards are plenty if you just keep at it. JUST DO IT!

I did relapse again 2 weeks ago after having a girl over and still suffered from DE which lead me to PMO after she left to ease my painful blue balls, but been back on track ever since. I have made myself a weekly schedule that I try to follow adamantly, and also decided a new diet for me. My goal is to leave non-organic food off my diet, including meat, although I do allow myself to eat meat/fish every now and then (though if it’s up to me, i will go for organic). I will increase raw vegan ingredients to my regime, and I plan to be eating mostly raw vegan eventually- In winter (now) though I have to add one warm meal to my diet.
I dedicate most of my free time to my hobbies: martial arts and music. If I’m not practising them, I’m probably learning and studying about spirituality and problems/solutions to current world problems hoping to (hopefully sooner than later) be able to actually do something real to help. Maybe by joining some program?
I have noticed a change in my perception – now I’m starting to feel like I can focus on other stuff instead of my own problems. Even though I haven’t found myself a good mate (those that I mentioned earlier turned out to be flaky) I don’t worry about it. I don’t feel alone, nor do I crave for companion at this time. I believe that this nofap has helped me to overcome my perceived loneliness.

It seems like it’s pretty much the norm in here to go to sex pretty fast after ‘hitting it off’ so it would require a paradigm shift and strenght from me. And also belief in that this girl is someone I want to spend more time with. I’m quite picky after all with the company I keep.
February 20
I went for 90 days straight of no P, M or O.
Most notable changes that have happened during this time:
– No sexual thoughts or mental images fill my mind anymore
– My view about sex and life have changed
– Less severe mood swings
– Increased overall happiness
– Increased excitement about life
– Increased energy
– Increased spiritual awareness
– I have become vegetarian
– I do not think anymore that a partner is necessary to enjoy life properly
I feel like I want to continue my abstinence for now, as I have been enjoying these benefits greatly. I joined the NoFap2013 challenge, but I’ve decided to abstain from sex as well unless I find someone that makes me feel it properly! Although, at least for now I’m probably too busy to really meet anyone as I feel like there so much to do, and I feel like I need to make up for the time I have wasted during the PMO days.
