Ok man cool. I can only dream of being 100% recovered at day 200. I went 94 days hardmode and felt like shit the entire time.

Really struggling today with withdrawals. Just this super low motivation and a sickly feeling throughout my body. I’m sleeping longer/better however I’m less energised and rested upon waking - strange considering I’ve lived off of 4 hours a night since my daughter was born. Im starting to...

First of all man congrats, well deserved! dont stress on not being able to O. Could be a multitude of things from your brain still re-wiring or subconscious pressure on yourself to O “this is weird why can’t I O” type thing. Also if you do O and it feels weak, don’t let it worry you. After...

Can I ask how old your partner is sophan and how long he has used porn? Duration of sessions? Escalation to extreme context? I’m 36 and used internet porn since I was around 16….daily and compulsively by 20, and it consumed my life completely and started fucking me up around 20 also. also if...

Lots of great responses here, not knowing how long recovery will take is the hardest part of porn addiction - the only other similar recovery time frames I’ve read about is methamphetamine - a heavy long term user may take 2/3 years worse case scenario to fully get back to baseline brain...

Hey nation, since finding out about this addiction in 2012…almost a decade ago, I’ve been unable to quit. I’ve done one 94 day hard mode reboot while I was single (2012) and a few shorter runs, this is currently my best streak since the 94 dayer, and I’m not even sure what day I’m on…I’m...

Hey, remember masturbating over ANY images/video is “porn”. It’s artificial stimuli that’s hijacking your brain.

Hey nation, I’m back! after months of going back into the dark bottomless Pitt, I’m back to change my life for good. I’m around 3/4 weeks into a hard mode reboot, I haven’t been counting the days, I reached a point where I was miserable and just stopped… some things I’ve learnt, I can’t...

100% in agreeance that some things are better of not being told. Cheating, physically should be confessed to in my opinion, but porn use, cam sites, even sexting -  may just end the relationship when no actual physical sexual acts have been done. Although the guilt is tough, use it as...

Hey Nation! It would be very interesting to get an average of how long the communities viewing sessions were. Please vote! You don't have to post a reply if your to busy, can't be bothered or are uncomfortable sharing your information. Just simply click on the closest time your average...

Hey nation, Just wanted to throw this out there as I'm interested if anyone else has done damage to their penis from excessive death gripping/PMO'ing over the years. Now when i say damage I'm not talking about peyronie's disease, or bending / breaking or causing any structural damage to your...

It's a very honourable thing to do, stick around well after recovery. That's why people like Gabe deserve some kind of distinguished service to mankind medal. Personally, and I hope this doesn't come across as selfish - I plan on writing a detailed success story - posting it here, on YBR...

Hey guys so as the title states i don't have PIED, luckily. My addiction is severe, Hours of edging daily (5 - 7 hours usually) , hardcore withdrawals when i do abstain, escalation over the years to extreme material, nearly all of the other negative impacts this addiction can have....just not...

Hey mate, Sorry to hear of your struggles - quite a life story to say the least. I can somewhat relate, although you sadly had it much worse. I was homeless periodically 3 times, never sleeping on the streets though thankfully, couch surfing at friends places - strict parents thinking kicking...

Hey guys, I first discovered the nofap/YBOP community around 6 or so years ago. At that time i was in my late twenties, living in my bedroom at my parents house, unemployed, no car, single, no life. My days literally revolved around edging for insane amounts of time - at least 7 or so hours a...
