    The purpose of this thread is to provide Rebooters with a place to share their commitment to abstaining from particular sexual behaviors throughout the entire month. Although it is strongly recommended to make a public commitment, posting in this thread is not required for participation in a reboot.

    New to reboot? Here are some suggestions:
    1. Learn about porn addiction, excessive masturbation, and abstaining from PMO (a process called "reboot" or "rebooting"). Our free Getting Started guide that is advertised everywhere is a great option.
    2. Decide if abstaining from PMO is something that you really want. If you don't buy into the process 100%, you'll probably not make it through the month. If you have decided that you would like to participate, proceed to step three.
    3. Sign up for this month by replying to this thread.
    4. Consider setting up a PMO-tracking day counter to monitor your progress.
    5. Create a Journal Thread and share your progress periodically, preferably on a daily basis. Not only does this help you stay accountable, it documents valuable anecdotal evidence that will ultimately help other people going through similar situations in the future.
    6. Ask questions and get support by posting on NoFap. Help others, too, if you are able to.
    7. Get an accountability partner.
    Would you like to participate? If so, please reply to this thread with the following information.
    • Are you not going to allow yourself to masturbate? View porn? Orgasm whatsoever? Not allowing any outlet for sexual release is dubbed "hard mode". For a full list of parameters, see our Rebooting 101 page.
    • How long do you want this challenge to last? By default it is one month, but 90 days is recommended for rebooting. You can't know how long it will take to "rewire" your brain, it widely varies due to individual circumstances. Some people require a year or longer to regain sexual function.
    • What are your goals?
    • Why are you doing this?
    Coming in after this month has already started?

    Don't panic - it is not a problem. Users sign up for NoFap's rebooting events all months long. Just follow the instructions above and jump in at any time by replying to this thread.

    I'm going "hard mode" for the whole month and I'm also going to meditate daily. My mental health is the reason why I'm doing this.

    I commit to staying clean for the rest of this month. I have destroyed my mental health as well as productivity by giving in the last few days. I worked hard and beat my addiction for two years but I have once again started from scratch. I cannot call it a relapse because I was fully cured. I have basically begun a new addiction. I need to take the same extreme measure that I took two years ago. I will keep my internet devices away at night. I will keep the awful feeling and consequences of a relapse in mind. I will post on this platform daily no matter how busy I am because if I don't give 5 minutes to this platform, I will end up giving hours to PMO

    After succeeding in the month of August, I slipped up a few times in September. October has been clean so far, and I'm going to keep it that way. I hope to have some momentum going into NNN

    Staying clean through October so far! I began my current clean streak with NNN last year (so I am very close to a year clean), but for a variety of reasons have felt a lot more urges over the last week to engage in PMO. It's like my addiction really doesn't want to let me accomplish this milestone. I am going to start engaging on this challenge as another avenue for inspiration and accountability as I head for the finish line of one year clean/starting line for NNN 2023 and two years clean.
