In two days, I’ll have been porn free for an entire year. I can’t begin to express the gratitude I have for this community, from helping me recognize I had a problem, to supporting me in times of need. I found over the months that my issue wasn’t masturbation itself, but more so things leading […]

So, I started in No Fap September, only for that extra incentive to keep going, because I already wanted to do this. It was easier than I thought! The first 2 weeks were harsh, but then it got easier. I was pretty addicted to PMO, so it was a huge win for me that month, […]

For me PMO was causing relationship issues (now fixed!!) And perhaps just as exciting is that I don’t have to tense every fibre in my body to climax. Yeah so just an observation / advice for those considering NoFap. Going Pornfree (for me) has led to a much reduced urge to fap – I still […]
Life without porn is better. Porn was a numbing tool for me. Without it, life is more raw, more frightening, I suppose – but I wouldn’t ever trade the level of consciousness I have now for the depressed stupor I was in during my PMO days. One of my favorite benefits of the NoFap lifestyle […]
To have achieved this level in the pornfree lifestyle is a wonderful feeling! Life has it’s ‘ups’ and ‘downs’, and I can quite honestly say that I was ‘up’ the majority of the last 6 months. These days I’m in a great mood all the time. I feel like a king. I feel like I […]

Yeah, I watch too much porn… but my dick works perfectly. When I discovered Nofap (5 years ago), I kinda knew there was something wrong with my porn and masturbation habit. Apathy, lack of confidence, anxiety, inability to attract girls, unmotivated and tired all the fucking time. I was happy to have discovered possible cause […]
