6 months ago, I decided I would try not to look at porn or masturbate (masturbation without porn being impossible to even be thought of) for three days. I did this spontaneously, after looking at this interview of the singer I was in love with at the time. Why did I decided this? First, because […]

Age 22 – A year of NoFap. Success. Failures. Highs. Lows. I’m still here – going for broke this time.

God damn. A year. It’s crazy how time just slinks away like that, isn’t it? It seems like such a long time but before you know it a full calendar has zipped right by you and you’re back where you started. NoFap has been present in my life ever since I stumbled upon this subreddit […]
