Hey all! Saturday February 9th was my 1 year porn free! I just wanted to share a couple things I’ve learned, nothing much. Wow does everything get better! I went from being a husband who wasn’t up to the task most nights (never had PIED), to having a sex drive off the charts. Recover in […]
I was very happy and outgoing as a kid. I never knew what went wrong at the age of 12-13. I started to be quiet, unhappy and numbed. I was like this all the way until a few months ago. My personality changed at the same time I discovered fapping and I had been doing […]
I’m 24 years old. Before, I had masturbated more than 10 years old. In primary school, I was misled by a classmate’s words. From then on, I have embarked on an endless road. —————— After I retired from the army in 2010, I lost my hair so much. When I washed hair every day, it […]

Figured it was time to make a post and give back to this great community as I would not be where I am today without NoFap. Background: 34 y/o professional. Habitual MO since age 7-8. PMO since teenage years. Hard to remember exactly. Excited to make this post… with now seeing the light at the […]
My original idea was to post my success story after 90 days or so, but I decided to write this earlier anyway, in case someone might get something from it. So first and foremost I want to say: this is your journey, and you have to do it your way. Deep down, you know what […]

This puts less sexual frustration and stress on the brain from chronic masturbation. I can literally feel my brain relax. My blood pressure has decreased as well. Also, I […]

I am a 28-year-old bisexual man. I never thought women liked me. I always had trust issues with them (and with world in general!). Ever since I discovered Porn (around the age of 15!), my relationships have followed a predictably ominous pattern with even more disastrous results. I grew up with an abusive dad. I […]
I finally did it boys. After all this time, all the pain, the misery, the crying, the hopelessness. All the questions about myself and why I am different, why I couldn’t fuck. Why I had to be into this weird porn and not able to just enjoy regular relationships or sex. I remember waking up […]
Comments: This study reports poorer executive functioning and lower activation of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex during the cognitive tests (Stroop test). All this indicates poorer prefrontal cortex functioning, which is a hallmark of addiction, and manifests as the inability to control use or suppress cravings. ————————————————– Front.
