I’ve been meaning to come back here for a while, not only to thank some of the amazing people on here, but also to offer help here to prove to myself that I’m not taking my progress and achievements for granted. I will start at the end, because my post is going to be too […]
Read More… from Age 20 – From socially anxious and sad to happiness, losing my virginity and new GF
Who I am doesn’t matter. I am 22 years old. I have watched porn for a long time. Found out about it with 13/14 years. And fapped at irregular times in the meantime. Until 3 years ago where I became 19. That time I got hooked on a fetish. That fetish was ‘gender-bender’. I have […]

It has taken at least three years to get here. There was a few bricks of wisdom needed to be laid down, so to speak, stuff I read on the forum. Then the motivation kicked in about four months ago, and from that point it was easy. But again, it took three years of struggle […]

We’re all together in the same boat. And we definitely CAN DO IT. After twenty years of masturbating with porn almost every day, I started reading this NoFap subreddit.

There are a lot of external benefits but my favourite are the underlying ones like even in utter laziness I will […]
Read More… from Age 21 – Magnetism and desire to expand my horizons rising
It’s just one year back that I realized I have ED. It was really shocking as i m perfectly fit guy who is regular at exercising. I tried all sorts of things from libido increasing diet, giving up my bad habits, doing kegels everyday to watching porn and try edging to last longer. It took […]

I’m 18. I noticed PMO was a problem when I hit rock bottom. Wanking to crazy shit and feeling miserable afterwards. Spending hours edging and finally succumbing to ejaculation. Hours wasted. Feeling like a zombie all the time, noticing my friends drifting away from me, noticing my social anxiety and general incompetence. I wanted to […]
Read More… from Age 18 – A lot more compliments in the workplace, more respect in general
Today is my 50th day of NoFap. Did it benefit me? Absolutely. The positive improvement subtly builds up. Your brain progressively heals when abstaining from PMO. The change happens subtly that some get discouraged and relapse. Another thing is, if you still leave there a possibility of relapsing in your subconscious mind, you are going […]
