    Quite right. Unfortunately, if we are not complicating our own lives, there are the demands of people we live or work with, not always reasonable, to complicate it. I met several people who seem to be employed at SICO: Simple Issues Complication Office :emoji_grin:

    Setting password on the hosts file has been one of the most effective ways for me.It's impossible to bypass those except if you use VPN's but most VPN's are paid and free ones are slow and not reliable.YOu can just set a random password on your hosts file and forget it forever.I have been now 60 days clean of porn (can't stop masturbating though idk why) and that method saved countless times,i just got frustrated and eventually lost the urge to watch porn every time i tried to watch it.

    That's a very interesting tip: it might work well! But could you suggest me how can I do to set a password on the hosts file (my o.s. is Windows 10 Home)? I don't know how to do it...Thank you! :)

    Well, yes because you're not a porn addict from what I've seen you say in previous posts. As a recovering addict myself I know how useful having K9 is to me. It's a benefit regardless of how you view it.

    Also for me K9 would be a good program...If I wouldn't have found on Google various sites explaining how to uninstall or circumvent it quite easily :(
     
  6. Actually 852 @Thotdestroyer , I quit PMO on May 12th 2015. But the counter does not count over 500 days :)
     
  7. There is not a bullet proof system @Alcyone one. It is just one more barrier that we place so we can think over and stop
     
  8. You are right @Alcyone . To succeed we need to strenght our Will Power System.
    Mark Queppet teaches how to do it in the NoFap Academy e-course. I have used his technique and it works

    Sometimes (or often?) the real problem is thinking. When under fap urge, the only thing that dominates brain is...fap itself. And the only thing you can reason about is how to remove every pc block to go to porn sites...
    About willpower, yes, we need to strength it (but videos of Academy are too long and not very easy for a non - english native speaker :emoji_disappointed_relieved:). The only strong, too strong willpower, in certain moments, is only the will to...fap :( So, someone should create a really inviolable block that resists all the more prolonged attempts, such as closing a door and throwing away the key...
    K9? Circumvented and uninstalled searching tips on line. Kaspersky Internet Security Parental Control? Password deleted modifying a key in regedit (several sites explain how to do it in a fast and easy way :emoji_sob:)
    To avoid fapping, I have to do an activity that involves me a lot and does not let me think. But not always is possible (could I work, go swimming, have a walk at midnight?). And, even if we avoid porn sites, sometimes we see ads on TV or street posters rather provocative that make us want to go to the net and look for more...

    I just reinstalled the k9. I thought I am cured, but today I stumbled upon my own self-made xxx flicks of my Ex-girlfriends on my disk. after that I stumbled upon some nude chicks on some Tumblr site. I closed it after few minutes. I was not feeling horny though.
    I locked all my exes away too.
    I went to the gym and had a hard training. I feel OK now.

    Yes, I feel really good too, when playing sports: I go twice a week (when I can) to the swimming pool, and it's relaxing indeed. But when fapping urge comes, for example, late in the evening, it's hard to find a physical outlet in sports...

  14. @Alcyone, have you tried meditation? It helps me a lot. I am using an App called Headspace that it is great to help you meditate. This is paid, I've heard there is another one called Insight Timer that is free, but never used it.
    I also practice Tai Chi, started one month after reboot and helps me a lot with the urges. This you can practice even at night in your room.
    Stretching or even push ups may help too
    Stay strong

    It's worth trying...Thank you
     
  16. Fercho you are true inspiration. Theres a lot of young guys who struggle to last few days in a row without PMO. Some of them might be losing hope or give up thinking they are too old or its too late for them. But you showed that one can quit PMO in his midlife being 50 years old and break free. Its like in that movie
    The Shawshank Redemption (1994) where guy broke out of prison a day before he should be released. But all those years he dig his way out and he had one more day to enjoy his life in freedom. Think its same about PMO it can take years for some but its worth it to keep going cause in the end of a tunnel there are another life, life outside of PMO walls where you are free to try again.

    The weight gets heavier, the sky grows darker, the night longer. But I won't back down. Stood here a thousand times before, stared in my eyes a million more, wore this groove into the floor. No, I won't back down. Doubt and pain, I call my friend, here from the beginning, with me to the end. They know I won't back down. In the shadows, I've found light. Found my courage, found my fight. In the darkness I have sight. I won't back down. A warrior's creed that I cry, a solemn oath to live by, from this moment till I die... Never back down.

     
  17. Thank you for your kind words @pcmaster
    Shawshank Redemption is one of my favorite movies, I've watched ii in TV many times.
    You are right, we always have a chance for redemption, and the day to start is TODAY
