Today is my 121st day without P. Since late February I haven’t watched any kind of P. During the first 3 months I only had a couple of MO sessions. The longest I was ever able to go on hard mode was 48 days. Now I no longer see the hard mode as a priority […]
38 year old male here. I enjoy reading updates, so I’ll try to contribute my own. I’ve known about Nofap for a while, but didn’t get a respectable streak until Jan of this year, where I went about 85 days. I did some relapsing and one session of binging since that time. I also engaged […]

Prelude I had 5 previous attempts of quitting before reaching a year, first a bunch of 20 day streaks, then 3 months, and finally, one year of hardmode. I don’t often visit the subreddit since most posts are about people starting, or relapsing. Don’t get me wrong, those posts remind me not to relapse, and […]
