82 days is a weird number to post about, but I hit a big milestone today. Quick background. I’m divorced and had married my first girlfriend (and first sexual partner). That lasted over a decade and I am ashamed to admit that PMO caused me to have almost no sex life. The divorce wasn’t solely […]
I am super excited today because as you can see I MADE IT TO THE BIG DAY 90! I hope you read all I am about to write as I believe it can help and encourage a lot of people here and some of my experiences are different than the norm. So sit back, relax, […]
Read More… from Age 17 – From D’s & F’s to honor role, no more anxiety & depression
I have read tons and tons of success stories here and I was always bothered (no offense to those) because 90% were about people who had no (real) PIED and ‘just’ felt like their focus or mood or whatever improved after giving up porn. For this reason I decided to post here since I think […]
Read More… from Age 23 – (ED) A guy and his girlfriend both describe their 130 day reboot
Hi to all NoFappers, this is not going to be the usual sharing of experience. There is enough information on what happens when you watch porn and how it feels when you try to cease that practice. In short my story with porn is about 13 years old (29 years of age at the moment) […]
I’m going to keep the first part of this success story limited to the basic vital info so you can quickly read it and relate without sifting through a bunch of other stuff. I will include a second post which will have other things like my opinions on various topics based on my experience recovering […]

I am a 28 year old male who has been addicted to porn for several years now. It was my drug of choice after marijuana. Let me tell you this, quitting marijuana was far easier than quitting porn. But that is a story for another time. Around 9 months ago I realized that I was […]

90 days hardmode! Wow what can I say it has been a crazy life changing journey. Now age 20, porn robbed me of 6 years of my life, and until now I realize it never let me reach my true potential. Without even knowing, it was numbing my brain of all emotions and energy and […]

First, I would like to thank this forum and the Yourbrainonporn website for giving me all the information needed for me to make this trans-formative journey in which I thought there would be no light at the end of the tunnel….I endured and I am emerging from the ashes like a Phoenix just reborn….now all […]
Read More… from 2 years – Porn & Prostitute Addiction, Relationship Problems, ED, and Flatline!
After hitting 90 days I suppose I must let everyone know how things have changed. I have been a long-time lurker and mostly come on here to read other posts for encouragement. This, along with other members of my church, have been my support. Looking back on things, I am so incredibly happy I have […]
