    Hello everyone simon here, just like all the teens who fall into this faptrap i actually fell into this mess little earlier like i was 5th grade and still doing this disgusting yet pleasurable thing i did it everyday since that first day i started no matter how many times i tried to stop doing it i always convinced myself that i will quit doing this today is the last day, once i'm done doing it i start to feel guilt about doing it again and again, and the next night i do it again! today i was going through my youtube video feed and found the video called "Why The Members Of NoFap Become Successful" by improvement pills, and went through all the reddit posts about which were about fapping, porn addiction and i told to myself there's countless number of people are suffering from the same exact problems which i'm facing now, and this sickness can actually be cured. Now i've made a clear decision about this now and i'm serious about this thing more than ever before, i'm going to make this as my primary goal, everyday i'll be posting about my improvements on this forum so that it won't be just in my thought it'll be actually document somewhere too i heard writing down something is more powerfull then just making decision only in your head. MY NoFapp challenge will be for 356 days :) i hope i reach that goal without much difficulties!! i wanna encourage you all of you too for sticking up with your decisions and make this thing possible. bye, see you on the other side

    #Day 2
    Guys i survived the second with 0 temptations and i'm feeling proud about myself to say this
    The trick which i used is convincing myself that "There's no next time for stopping PMO if you want to make your things better you gotta leave this shit" i kept saying this to myself in my head when i think about nofapp it turned out to be working :). it was a causal day and i was a little bit more productive than before.

    Your two most important assets are your commitment ["i'm serious about this thing more than ever before, i'm going to make this as my primary goal" and determination (fight the good fight, realizing sometimes you will be kicking butt and taking names, and sometimes you will get schooled).

    Here are some recommendations to get you guys started. IF you do these things and get fully educated, it goes a long way to fighting the urges and building a great streak (the number of days you abstain – the goal is to keep getting longer and longer streaks until you have broken the addiction).
    1. Share your story - how did PMO become your addiction?
    2. Visit www.yourbrainonporn.com to understand the science of the addiction so you can battle it with wisdom.
    3. Watch The Ted talk here:
    4. Set up a porn blocker on your computer and all other devices you COULD use for PMO.
    5. Get yourself an accountability partner on this site, and locally, if you have a close friend you can safely confide in.
    6. Read posts here daily and update your journal daily ( create one) - you'll understand others' experiences and how they may relate to you and be immersed in ongoing communication that we'll be daily assets for you while also helping others.
    7. Set realistic goals and add a counter to help you and everyone see your progress - small steps seem very achievable and build confidence - large ones may make you feel like it is useless. I suggest picking one day past your longest streak to date, or less if the longest "seems" unachievable at present. Setting 6 months or 1 year is way too far away if you are just starting. YOU WILL fall, like all of the rest of us. You’ve got to get back up, dust yourself off and start moving forward again. It’s only a failure when you GIVE UP!
    8. Ask questions along the way - we're here to help each other. Nobody will judge you here - we're here to help ourselves and one another!
    9. Welcome to the team! Let's fight the battle against PMO and make some progress together!
