Here’s my abbreviated success story: in my teens I was very overweight and shied away from trying to date any women. Later, I lost all that weight and turned out to be a good looking guy with a lot of interest from women. I had no early sexual experiences, but naturally had gravitated to porn, […]
Was at the lowest point of my life. Discovered this sub (and mostly Reddit) at the end of January. Read close to a thousand posts. Got extremely motivated. Also a bit disappointed I didn’t make an effort to discover this resource earlier (could have saved 10+ years of misery), but forgeddaboudid. You see, I’m in […]
The real struggle after relapsing is not wanting anything anymore. I’m in my thirties now. I see my friends getting married. People say they’re willing to die for their wife and kids. I can understand what they’re saying, but I can’t sympathize because I don’t have particularly strong feelings for anything. I see a friend […]

Well looks like I’ve conquered this challenge and I have to say it wasn’t hard at all. It was actually quite simple if you put yourself in the right mindset.

That’s it. I’m halfway to 500 days. A random list of things that happened to me – I still worry about erectile dysfunction but I’m 100% ED free since day 80. – Sometimes I still think about my HOCD, but is decreased a lot. – I feel my head burning sometimes, like I did at […]
So today i realized how far this nofap mindset bought me. I only use the internet for information and reddit for 0,5-2h a day (4-10h a day gaming before nofap), started to meditate 20 min every morning, started to work out everyday + running/jogging and i want to try yoga. Im currently in 30h no […]

So I’ve decided to post for the first time at this milestone, it’s been quite a ride and I just feel like sharing to hopefully help those currently abstaining, those needing encouragement and give a little back to the community that has spurred me on. Me –> a 27 year old guy in the UK, […]

“The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step” Hello, welcome to my “success story” that I decided to publish on my 128th day of nofap. Why 128 days you might ask? Well, in the early days of my nofap journey, counting the number of days became very helpful and using significant numbers […]
Last week I broke my streak of 917 days, then relapsed again 3 days later. Why? I hadn’t seen my girlfriend for 4 weeks and I wasn’t keeping my sexual thoughts under control. It’s frustrating because being able to maintain control in that respect is what kept me going for so long, I guess I […]
