LINK – 15 months of no p0rn results
by gemiman
Hello dear NoFappers. I stumbled across YBOP.com site in March of 2011 and quit watching porn the same day. I had started watching when I was about 14 and eventually lost my desire to be in a healthy relationship and had some ED problems by the age 26.
I didn’t do a proper reboot. I just quit porn but still had sex and masturbated sometimes. However, in January of this year I went on a 90-day no masturbation reboot and had sex just a few times.
Needless to say I am experiencing amazing erections, can have sex 3-4 times in one session, always horny and have high libido, and most girls look very pretty to me.
Tools I used to help me:
adblock (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/gighmmpiobklfepjocnamgkkbiglidom or https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/
safelock on google search ( https://www.google.com/preferences?hl=en ).
Also I kept an xl spreadsheet of the times I would masturbate and what triggered the behavior. Those two free tools work great.

Good luck everyone. I hope that after 90 days you will still not watch and masturbate to porn. Otherwise what was the point of all that hard work? It would be a vicious circle. DO NOT WATCH PORN!
PS: as soon as I quit porn I started making better choices like switching to paleo diet, working out hard and then crossfit, so in 1 year or less I gained 20 pounds of muscle. Hope this link works http://tinypic.com/r/25oyty9/6
Question from another forum member:
When you did the reboot, did you edge or masturbate w/o orgasm or did you avoid touching yourself at all? Did most of your benefits (e.g. amazing erections, sex 3-4 times) come after the full reboot?
Answer:
Yeah during the reboot I didn’t touch myself or have an O. Just a wet dream a few times but I didn’t feel the O. But again, that was almost a year in, so I really didn’t need the full reboot. I just wanted to stop fapping by myself coz at that time I didn’t have a gf. Sure enough, after reboot I met her. 🙂
The truth is I felt like I was recovered without the reboot after just 6 months of not watching porn (after 10 years of use). Everything was back to normal after 6 months.
After the full reboot in January of 2012 though things got even better as far as erections and sensations go. However as soon as 1 year had passed I started to think about porn kinda like a reward you know. So that is when I had to step up the blocking of websites game, which is ok. I need all the help I can get. Our brains have been wired to porn watching for too long
But good thing is that the brain’s plastic and now I have no desire for porn at all. I just want to have sex with my gf all the time. 🙂 (I have too much libido, and erections during the day. You know, the way it’s supposed to be!)
You guys will all be there in a few short months. Just do not relapse and never watch that shit.
Question from another forum member:
New here.. Do you have the urge to Fap or have Sex?
Answer:
My gf lives 1 hour away so we have sex on weekends. Sometimes we have sex and I withhold the orgasm (very advanced though). So I still don’t masturbate during the week. If I skip the orgasm the first day we are together I want her all the time during the weekend, anyway.
Yes, sometimes when I want to have sex very badly during the weekdays I might touch myself a little. But I stop as soon as possible. What I’m trying to convey here (based on experience) is that the problem is in the high speed, hard-core, too much dopamine, Internet p0rn, and fapping like a mother-fapper to it – and consequently losing sensitivity, dopamine receptors and erection when it comes to real thing. Stay out!!!
