I hit my sixth and final 15 Day Goal, which now equals 90 days since my last lapse. Though I stated earlier that this was not a reboot as such, but rather a probationary period since my last lapse- I tricked you, brain, straight up tricked you!!! Not really, of course- we’re smarter than that. […]

If you grew up on internet porn watching all kinds of porn and getting hooked on screen sex, you may not respond much to sex with a real person. This can cause massive confusion. Interestingly, those who quit internet porn often experience the return of their normal attractions, whatever they may be. In short, don’t […]
Pornography has long been a staple of young men’s lives, and it has evolved over time. It has gone from hidden issues of Playboy under beds to an easily accessible, multifaceted industry on the Internet. I’m sure half of the male readers right now have another tab open with porn, and that’s the problem. We are, unintentionally, […]

I’m 50 years old and have always had a pretty strong sex drive. I discovered porn when I was about 14 but fortunately the internet didn’t exist in the form it does today. I got fast internet when I was about 32 and I’ve been binging on porn ever since. I’m in a relationship with […]
Read More… from Age 50 – ED cured, got back into porn, now severe ED
I’ve wanted to do a success story for a while, and what better time than less than 30 minutes after relapsing on my 175 day streak? For some background information, I’m 15 years old and started masturbating around the age of 12, although at that age it was a rare thing and I didn’t look […]
Read More… from Age 15 – 175 days, Social anxiety completely went away, motivation increased
I started fapping around the age of 14, however I watched very few porn. I relied mostly on fetishes inherited from my childhood to get aroused. And as time went on, they became nastier and nastier, and the internet surely helped this trend. Around the age of 15, I was masturbating thrice a week. I […]
Read More… from Age 18 – Confidence went through the roof, destroyed critical exam!
COMMENTS: The controversy section of this paper contains the following: There are a number of electrophysiological-based studies, by Prause’s group that provide some evidence that sexual desire, not hypersexuality, predicts self-regulation of sexual arousal [92]. These investigators suggest in other work that subjects reporting problems regulating their viewing of visual sexual stimuli (VSS) who also […]
It’s been over 90 days since I quit porn cold turkey and started my first ever streak (+- since our counters broke down). The nightmare mode streak, as I call it. At 27 yo I currently have no GF, do not plan to use escorts, never used or plan to use drugs or alcohol, and […]

I turned 31 recently and was addicted to fapping since I discovered it, which was around 10 I think. I had plenty of GF’s that I had regular sex with, but the sex never last too long (5-20minutes max? no fast action). It wasn’t a tragedy, but looking at what guys can do at porn, […]
