    Started masturbating when I was about 10, and found pornography when I was about 12. I'm sure you've heard all this before, and I won't bother going into detail. All you need to know is that I've been trying to quit for about a year now, and yesterday on a whim I decided to check out the website, having heard both good and bad things about it on various online forums. I like what I see and I'm here to stay.
     
  2. Harder than you might think. Luckily you haven’t been spanking the monkey too long. You can do this.

    I know how hard it can be, I've been trying for the past few weeks and the urges and feeling after a relapse are humbling. Hopefully I'll get to 90 days eventually.
     
  4. I checked your info but didn’t see the day you’re on. How far in?

    I relapsed yesterday, was on day 6, the streak before that I was on day 7. Not much, but I struggled to get that far.

  7. My God. I thought you had 70 day or something.
    I can’t do long term thinking like that. I have to do day by day, even moment by moment sometimes. A friend said all you have to do to get 200 days is do one day 200 times.
    But we have to do it our own way. I think we’re on the same day almost 7 for me

    I wish I was on day 70 lol. You have the right mindset, doing it day by day, I try to a mix of long term and short term thinking, with mixed results.I find myself getting really hung up on counting days sometimes. Perhaps it would be wise of me to focus more on each individual day, that seems to be the way most guys do it.

    A wiser fellow than me here on nofap gave me that advice.
