    HOCD and same sex encounter (craigslist)

    Hey all, I know this topic seems to be beaten like a dead horse and I promise I'm trying to not sound too obsessive over it, but long-story short I am the classic case w/ escalation into gay porn or exposed to gay porn as a teen and gradually found it arousing although in real life only crushed...

    The longer I do NoFap, the more straight I become...?

    Hey all, So I have posted here before about my struggle and now things are a little different.. In my latest streak, I noticed that I became viscerally attracted to women again, just like I remembered I was when I was a young kid before I discovered porn and gay porn at 12. It came around day...

    Lost my virginity to an escort last night... here are the details

    So to make things short and sweet, I called up an escort because I was always curious and finally went through with it, met one in a hotel room in my town and we had sex. And never in my life have I been more conflicted about something. There were things I enjoyed and didn't enjoy and all in all...

    If I could stop MO-ing in my bed at night and in the morning, I WIN!

    Gentleman, this year so far has been rough. Many victories but many disappointments as well - The reason I keep relapsing I am realizing... more than anything is the fact that I MO to Fantasy (porn-inspired) when I am in bed. It keeps happening. Now I know here are some of my triggers: 1)...

    I think I have finally isolated the reason why I keep relapsing ( maybe you too)

    So, Im gonna make this succinct: I had been struggling with HOC-D for the longest at the end of last year because part of the whole reason I stopped P was bc of my watching gay porn and not thinking it matched up.... and that's not really an issue for me as much now But I am in my early...

    On using a jock-strap + athletic cup

    So, I tried using that the other night as a 21st century 'chastity belt' of sorts and while it certainly will keep you chaste, the pressure is on your testicles while you are lying down I believe is unhealthy as I kept waking up at different points in the night and finally took it off lol.. Has...

    Masturbating Prone (aka humping the bed)

    Hello all -   So I have noticed that for me, while staying away from porn is fairly easy for me, staying away from masturbation to fantasy /p-fantasy is a huge challenge for me. I also am realizing that I have never, in all my life ( I am 24 now), orgasmed from masturbating the normal way (...

    Help against rationalization...

    Hello Rebooters,     I am beginning to realize  that there's no such thing as 'testing the waters' - every attempt to look at porn is your brains sneaky way to get its fix. This is honestly my biggest struggle. This struggle is the worst for people, like me, who escalated to a genre that...

    How to deal with YouTube and google images?

    Hey all -   So, I am realizing my hardest issue isn't necc. with watching porn itself as much as it is porn-substitutes. It's the reason I have kept relapsing, honestly.   I encounter most p-subs on Youtube I am finding. Does anyone know a way to attenuate Youtube in a way that blocks risky...

    Porn is a RELATIVE term - porn is a shape-shifter!

    Hello all,   I just wanted to get an idea out there that I think would address a lot of questions and concerns I see out there a lot. I was inspired to do this with information I saw on the NoFap reddit. It's basically the idea that, which Gary Wilson even says, is that 'porn' ( as we know...

    Since peeking , my brain feels swollen

    Yesterday, one thing led to another and I peeked at a video ( wasn't P but def. a P-sub) but I did click away after snapping out of it and didn't masturbate, but from then (like 4pm) to now (10AM) I have had this odd fullness in my head, like something's swollen - I guess it's brain fog. What...

    Becoming less picky about the kinds of girls you'd date?

    I hear all the time that a huge benefit of rebooting is that regular girls look attractive again. As an extension of this, , does a rebooted brain become less picky in its capacity to fall in love. One of the reasons I'm still single is because I always seemt o only like girls who don't like...

    Avoiding morning relapse?

    Hello all! So I relapsed this morning, after what would have been 4th day in the streak, and it was due to a combo of morning wood  and the horniness that coems with that and some sexual fantasies... I thought I would be strong enough to just not do it, and I'm still not sure why I decided to...

    Relapsed but NOT counting it...

    I know this is pretty damn controversial of me. But the other night I saw a pretty arousing image of a woman and I made the conscious decision, after hours of going back and forth- to go ahead and jsut let this one out.  Of course once I O'ed it was painful and I regretted it because of that...
