    Hey all, so Ive hit my longest streak ever in the last 20 years or so, 30 of 90 days Hard mode...

    I used to be addicted to porn!, at least once/twice per day & fapping with viewing.

    These last 12 months I’ve been stuck Down with depression Anxiety & ocd intrusive Thoughts..

    So my progress so far,
    Week1, was great a big break from the above mentioned.

    Week 2, depression set in & thoughts came back but not as intense with flatline.

    Week3, just mixed really with feeling good & Anxiety ect.

    Week 4, flat line with intense depression & ocd thoughts but towards the end of this week I seem to be able to control my thoughts for the first time in a long time :)

    So I’m hoping this only improves with time & yeah it can be done peoples :)

    Anyone else had similar experience??

    Also I’m hoping to come off my antidepressant medication towards the end of the year..

    Ive experienced Meditation/cold showers/reading books/the present moment & Whole Foods diet to be very beneficial..

    Thanks & much love to you all, Aaron.

    Hey @All_384

    Great to hear your success story! I have been trying to get rid of my addiction some time, also hitting a 30 day streak once or twice. This is my first attempt using the NoFap community.

    This sounds amazing! must give you a great feeling of control. Hav eyou struggled with brain fog in the past, and has that gotten less as well?

    More good news! A friend of mine was on antidepressants for a long while. When he finally came off them, I nooticed a huge difference in his attitude and behaviour. He was a lot more present, cheerful, had energy to do things, it was great! Hopefully you will experience it in a positive way as well.

    I do think this might be a little bit overconfident. While 30 days is an amazing step already, it doesn't mean you are not still addicted. Make sure you don't get too cocky, as it is one of the easiest ways to go back down to zero.

  12. The first 9 days were hellacious! No motivation, slowly rocking in front of the computer while watching classic golf tournaments on YouTube as a porn substitute, Death Row depression, and anxiety...tons of fun! I was about to lose my mind because relapse was not an option. Then came upon me this revelation that I will now use as my statement above my avatar image for as long as I'm on this site, 'Only two things can replace the thrill of PMO: A loving relationship with someone and enlightenment. Anything else, forget it!' The notion being that PMO placed me on an elevated pseudo-enlightened fantasy land. Now I walk the earth, calmly getting by and flowing right along...90, 300, 1000 days without PMO, no problem. All the real people now to love and all the deeper levels of my being to explore...very nice!

    Day 32,
    Woke up with very little Anxiety today:)
    (I normally wake up feeling crappy as with racing thoughts)!

    Intrusive Thoughts pop in my mind & im like ok that’s cool then they dissolve away :)

    I got a feeling this whole of NoFap journey has helped me out so far better than any medication/therapy..

    I just feel in control!!:)

    Peace & love to you all :) :) :)

    It can actually indeed be as simple as that!
    Noticing thoughts, just accepting them but doing nothing with them, and they go away.

    Btw, cool to see someone who started his streak at the same moment!
