Well, I did it. I reached 90 days without masturbating to pornography. It was really hard at the start but got progressively easier and now I don’t even think about or desire to watch porn. i wouldn’t say it’s completely changed me, but I do find some of the noise in my head around sex has been...

It’s crazy to write that down but it’s true, im only a few weeks away from the 90 day target I had felt for years was impossible. I can’t say there haven’t been struggles, and I didn’t fully quit masturbating or sex, but I feel so much less shame and guilt around those activities knowing im not...

I’m now 51 days clean from porn and I can honestly say I’ve noticed real benefits. generally I feel a bit less stressed and more at peace with myself. There’s something powerful about feeling like you have regained control over your life. The foggy and depressed state I felt for the first few...

46 days porn free. Wow. A record for me since I was a teenager for sure. Whereas a few months ago I couldn’t get a decent erection even when solo and watching porn I now find I can achieve one that is firmer without any visual stimulation. After taking about a month off from all stimulation and...

Really starting to feel a lot better from the decision to quit porn, and with each day it becomes easier to say no to it. i experienced a dream last night where I relapsed to porn and felt a ton of regret about it. The dream didn’t make any sense, I was in a grocery store and turned down an...

I’m 44 days free from watching porn. I’ve noticed certainly an improvement in the overall strength of my erections, but my PE has gotten worse over time. I went 28 days with no MO and when I did it literally only took a few strokes, not even fully hard, before my brain was rushing to ejaculate...

43 days free from porn now and yesterday was the first time I was both intimate with myself and my partner for a month. It had been 28 days since any MO and I knew sex would be on the table given we were celebrating Valentine’s Day. Given that and because I didn’t want to have too much pent up...

43 days free from porn now! Never going back

Haven’t gone this long without porn since I was probably 12 or 13 years old. I’m 31 now. Feeling good about that, although I can tell I’m nowhere near fully recovered.

By far my best steak I’ve ever had. Recovery hasn’t been easy or rapid, but I feel like I’m slowly getting better. And more than that, I’m putting behind a habit that I simply don’t want to be part of my life anymore. obsessive thoughts about sex are declining. I’m starting to feel more...

I’m now 38 days porn free and 24 days without MO. In this time I’ve definitely noticed that overall my mental focus / obsession levels with certain kinks that I was very into before have gone down. But I’ve also noticed in recent days some that I thought were perhaps only porn induced were...

It’s been 36 days since I last watched porn and 22 since my last MO. I’ve had a lot of ups and downs and went from feeling like my libido was returning a bit earlier this week to feeling like I’m still in a flatline. I think other stresses and emotions play a part but right now I don’t feel...

What a ride its been so far! I wanted to quickly journal out some reflections and observations that I’ve had in the last month that I’ve stopped watching porn, which I hope may be helpful to at least one person. A few things I’ve come to realize: 1. You do not need porn - so much of the...

After a month without porn and 2.5 weeks without any MO, I finally had, at least for a few minutes, real morning wood today. it went away once I sort of recognized it was there and felt for it but man, it was the strongest morning wood I’ve had in a long time. My dick was rock hard, it felt...

I’m 30 days now without porn and 16 free of MO. In the last few nights I’ve had some pretty vivid dreams - I’d consider them nightmares - that I feel are telling me things about my emotional state. 1. I had a dream where I was diagnosed with an unspecified terminal illness and didn’t have much...

Longest I’ve gone without porn in 3.5 years. Longest I’ve gone without MO in at least a year. Feeling proud of that, and encouraged to keep on going.

When I told my wife that I was quitting porn and had been abstaining now for almost a month her immediate reaction was to withdraw away from me and tell me that she felt that “puts a lot of pressure” on her. Hearing this I was initially disheartened and then honestly pissed off. I understand...

Definitely noticing some changes in the frequency of sexual thoughts and the level of anxiety I was constantly feeling around questioning if I would be able to perform next time I attempted it with my wife. It’s probably helped by the fact my libido is currently dead and as such I don’t feel...

Longest streak I’ve ever had. Definitely experiencing the flatline but slowly starting to feel a little better and the thoughts and frustrations around sex are getting easier to ignore. no movement or life down there at all, and no morning wood, but I have faith it will pass eventually.

30M and I’ve completed 25 full days without P and 10 full days without M or O. Definitely feel like I’m experiencing a flatline at this point. Zero morning wood at all, feeling slightly tired and lethargic, mood swings come and go, and no libido. I sometimes find my mind wandering to think...
