Rebooted in 2012 unsuccessfully (though it helped). Problem was lack of rewiring [with real partners]. Did 90 days no orgasm in 2013, with women. Full recovery. But lost progress during a month of no sex + looking at a few pictures. Got things back to tolerably good, but not 100%. So this year decided to […]

Before I begin, FUCK PORN and I’m unexplainably happy that it’s out of my life. Here’s my story. I appreciate the read, I tried to make this post a little humorous. I occasionally looked at dirty websites started on my PlayStation portable at about age 12. That escalated Internet porn on the desktop and I […]

It’s so bizarre how people get swept up into things and don’t realize what’s going on until it’s over. I didn’t know I was a porn addict until I wasn’t one anymore. I think that’s true for a lot of people like us. And it’s not like you “walk” out of the fog, it’s like […]

I finished my 90 Nofap challenge and it was easier than I expected luckily. I’ve read countless 90-day reports to keep me going throughout and so I feel it is my duty to create a reddit account just to post this. Hopefully it helps you guys out and gets you through some tough times like […]
Read More… from Age 21 – I don’t want to escape, now I want to know how it feels to do things I’ve envied others for doing.
This journey has been a roller coaster. There have been ups, and downs. I will start by saying that the first two week of no fap are quite frankly the hardest obstacle to hurdle. I did my first 30 days on hard mode, and met a girl shortly after. We have been intimate, but have […]
Read More… from Age 23 – My emotions have started to be revived: been the most charismatic in my whole life
I’m around 1.5 years into my reboot. I’d probably put myself forward as being one of the “Worst case examples” of PIED. From the age of around 14 when I got the internet to age 26 I pretty much PMO’d every single day, several times a day. I spend the majority of this time isolated […]

These last 6 months have been some of the most enlightened of my life. I’ve never been so optimistic and I’ve grown a lot of gratitude in the last half year. I’ve been doing it hardmode (still a virgin) and I feel like these months are laying the foundation of who I will become in […]
