Read More… from Age 22 – Today I’m extremely social and very confident
I just had sex with my wife yesterday on her day off of work. I felt more in control of my urges yet more passionate towards her. I could hold my erection longer and could get hard easier with my wife. It felt incredible but I was lasting longer it was great everything felt so […]

I started porn free because I was embarrassed that on hookups, it was a coin flip if I […]
Damn I actually can’t believe I’m here. This might be one of the biggest mental toughness accomplishments I’ve ever been a part of. It took 2 years of relapses, misery, failing, walking away for a little, failing, failing, and failing. To now, someone who went 90 fucking days of nofap. All I can say is, […]
