    I saw some interviews with Jay Stringer, and in some of them he mentions accountability partners. So, I was wondering if he supports NoFap, because he used a NoFap specific vocabulary...


    So, does Jay Stringe supports NoFap?
     
  2. Don't have the book handy but i think he lists it as a resource and YBOP

    Hey man, NO SEXUAL PREFERENCE CAN BR CHANGED. That said, I am 100% gay, but during my worst porn addiction I not only looked but searched hetero bi videos, women being masturbated ecc. and other even more deviant stuff. But porn, in my eyes, was just a visual fantasy, nothing more. Would NEVER do most of the stuff I looked at. BUT I guess you can discover a new part of you, so if you discover a interest in other guys, that is divergent. It’s not porn that got you bi, but it’s porn that had you think about the possibility that you might enjoy that too.
    Happy to talk about it.

    It does not. Your addiction changes your porn habit, but not your orientation (unless you discover your orientation through porn, which is different).

    Is escalation related to sexual orientation obsessive compulsion disorder?

    I am almost finishing reading Noah B.E. Church's book today, it basically describe his experience with nofap, it helped me somehow understand escalation.

    He talks about sexual orientation obsessive compulsion disorder, that is fear of being heterosexual or homosexual when the opposite feels natural and right. I think I was down this path with bisex videos escalation issue...

    It seems that way for many people here, at least to some degree. But many people here also report that 90 of no PMO gets them back to normal.
     
  12. Hey, that's what's pretty much happened to me as well. My interests just changed my senior year of high school, and I haven't been able to get back yet. For me it was poor choices and lack of consideration. I'm still feeling the effects of what I've done but hopefully I can do better(?)
    I already disclosed as much as I could the best I could here: https://www.nofap.com/forum/index.php?threads/first-post-also-posted-as-is-on-the-reddit.230235/ so yea, nice to know I'm not really alone anymore.

    I'm not sure since I've never done it. I'd just say keep going till you no longer feel addicted to porn and your sexuality is back to normal
