Hi all, I feel like crap. My highest streak was 43 days and I was meditating every day. I was KILLING it. But, one evening just ruined it as I edged when I saw a pic on fb. Since then, I have lost the passion to start again. But, now I feel like I can do it. I feel like I can conquer this addiction day by day. Day 1 starts tomorrow and I will make a post every day to write out how I am feeling every day and how to handle instant urges. If I could get some motivation from you guys, I would love it!
Hi all, Today is Day 1. Feeling a bit sleepy and tired because of yesterday, but I kept myself occupied! I played tennis today and meditated twice. I should tackle this one day at a time and just grind it out. NoFap. Let's do this.
Hi all, Today is Day 2. I feel stronger than yesterday, but I want to feel stronger and more energetic. Feeling a bit sleepy and tired, but I kept myself occupied! I meditated twice again! One day at a time. Be conscious in everything you do. NoFap. Let's do this.

Hi all, Today is Day 6. I was playing tennis against my hardest opponent today, and I lost miserably. I was so angry with how I was playing today that I took it out on my racket. But, now I know what I did wrong, and I will be aware if that hits me again. I meditated twice today! Let's tackle this day by day. NoFap. Let's do this.
Keep it up buddy. I find the hardest thing is getting back on the horse after a good streak - maybe we're too tough on ourselves when we fall. Glad to see you're back on it

Hi all, Today is Day 10. Feeling good, really kept myself busy today. I was alone at home, which is a disadvantage, but I just have to grind it out. Day by day. NoFap. Let's do this.
Hi all, I fapped today. I feel like crap. All it took was just one search on fb to find pics of girls, and it ruined my hard work. However, this will not stop me. I will hit the reset button and start over tomorrow. Today is Day 0, where I assess what I did wrong and how do I prevent doing the same action. Fapping is not a good or bad thing. It is just a question of whether you can use your energy in a more productive way. And, I know I can. Tomorrow is Day 1. Looking to crush it again. Be strong guys. Day 0. NoFap. Let's do it.
Well done on the honesty buddy. While you can't 'carry over' the 10 days for the streak, you can 'bank' them as 10 days of being clean from the poison that is porn. 10 days without fapping is still a bloody good streak by most men's standards!
Hi all, Thanks for motivating me through these tough times. My poison isn't actually porn. My poison is actually pictures of a girl showing her legs, whether in a short dress or a leg slit. And, I realized that I am objectifying women. Women have feelings too and they have goals in life. I am basically considering them as sex objects, which is very discriminatory, and I know I am better than that. They can wear whatever they want whether to impress someone or just feeling comfortable, and that is not in our control. What is in our control is our ability to fix what we think. And the way I am going to think is that hey they wear whatever they want to wear, and it's just legs, men have legs too, and that's it. The way I am gonna handle this is set a goal for every 5 days, so I don't get ahead of myself. Day 1 out of 5. NoFap. Let's do this.
Hi Kxc2638S - thanks for the context. If you're compulsively looking at these pics, it's effecting you in a very similar way to porn (admittedly I think porn is even worse and opens up perverted ideas which you would never have previously found appealing). Sounds like taking one day at a time is sensible if you don't feel a massive reboot is required. Just avoid 'binging' as a reward at the end. It's great you're nipping 'objectifying women thought processes in the bud now - it'll make life much better down the line. Though never go as far as feeling bad for finding women (or their legs) attractive - it's when those thoughts start to block out seeing them as people that 'ok' ends and the problem begins (IMO) Keep up the great work buddy, we're all in this together!
Hi all, Today is Day 2. Feeling stronger in the legs, gonna be busy these couple of days, so hopefully it will distract me. Day 2. NoFap. Let's do this.
Hi all, Today is Day 3. Gonna get some stuff done today, hopefully it will distract me. Some words I have been going off is that I don't know if I am going to wake up tomorrow or not, and I am grateful that I am alive today. I take this life as a gift every single day, and that is the thought process I will repeat and repeat until it becomes permanent. Day 3. NoFap. Let's do this.
