Monthly Motivation Thread NoFap's "JUST-DO-IT July" or "PMO-Free July" 2026 - continue or begin your PMO-Free journey here (see instructions).

7 Upvotes

Hello all,

It's that time of the month again! One month is ending, and another is beginning. We hope you've had a good month. But if you haven't, now is a great time to refocus and rededicate yourself to recovery. This is your opportunity to create the new porn-free you!

New to NoFap and rebooting? Here are some suggestions:

  • Learn about the website, porn addiction, excessive masturbation, sexual compulsivity, and abstaining from PMO. Read through NoFap's main website to get informed.
  • Read about the basics of rebooting here. Rebooting is the abstinence from certain sexual behaviors to recover from pornography addiction. Read about how porn addiction develops here. Some people go beyond rebooting and into the territory of retention, or sexual transmutation for periods of time, although that is not the main purpose of this subreddit (which is RECOVERY).
  • Consider reading through the free Getting Started PDF from NoFap's website.
  • Download NoFap's in-browser panic button extension that blocks NSFW subreddits too. Download here
  • Decide if rebooting 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 the next point.
  • Sign up for this month by replying to this submission. It is that simple. State your intention and stick to it!
  • Consider setting up a day counter badge to track your progress.
  • Ask questions and get support by posting on NoFap. Set a goal to remain accountable by making a post daily. Help others. Come here every day and participate.
  • If you need additional support, you can get an accountability partner and document your progress in a daily rebooting journal.

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 called "hard mode".
  • How long do you want this challenge to last? By default it is one month, but 90 days is recommended for rebooting.
  • What are your goals?
  • Why are you doing this?

Arriving late? (past the first of the month?)

It's okay! Still state your intentions and don't postpone rebooting based on the day of the month. People can join in at any time to participate.

Mod Note: We suggest NOT USING REDDIT'S DIRECT MESSAGES due to porn trolls trying to disrupt the community. Also, please note that some posts are temporarily removed prior to appearing on r/NoFap.

Hello r/NoFap community members,

Please note that we highly suggest that you avoid using the Reddit direct messaging system entirely, due to porn trolls coming here to disrupt our porn addiction recovery peer support community. Some of these people pretend to be helpful at first, then will message pornography. It's in a similar vein to how a forum on epilepsy was reportedly hacked to display seizure-inducing images.

You can disable direct messages in your Reddit settings by changing "Who can send you chat requests" to "Nobody."

Secondly, please note that sometimes posts are flagged automatically for manual review prior to appearing on r/NoFap.

Due to Reddit’s anti-spam filters and NoFap’s additional filters to control spam and pornography, sometimes genuine posts are flagged as potential spam or pornography. Further, entities within the legacy porn industry have been attempting to de-platform porn addiction recovery forums such as r/NoFap, and we must remain extra vigilant to ensure that rule-breaking posts do not appear on the platform for even one second. If your post gets flagged, please just wait for a moderator to approve it.

Thanks for reading :-)

I finally found a person I truly love but I am unable to get intimate with her. She says sex is very important for her. Meanwhile PIED is fucking up my mental health badly. I don't know how I can live with this.

Relapse Report Relapsed last week and Have been down the rabbit hole since

Upvotes

Things were going alright for my 17 day no fap. But I wasn’t fully committed. I did look at porn on day 5 and after that everything went down hill. I was consistent with my workouts and routine. I wasn’t fully invested. I only stop faping because of a woman. 1 week i didn’t see her and started to think the worst and Its confirmed thats she’s with a guy. Soon as she came back She smiled at me and it was like she was seeing my light. But I got all up in my head a decided to watch porn. Ever since I avoided her.

I need to do this for myself. I need to find something. Im starting over starting right now.

Advice After 5 years of no FAP, I'm now struggling with urges

5 Upvotes

It's been more than five years since I started NoFap in February 2021, and I've been clean ever since. I haven't masturbated even once. I did watch porn a few times during these five years, but each time it was only for a day or two before I got myself back on track. That probably happened around four or five times in total, but I never masturbated.

Lately, though, I've been struggling with strong urges to masturbate. I don't get much satisfaction or excitement from the work I do anymore, and part of me wants to experience that pleasure again. At the same time, another part of me doesn't want to break a streak that's lasted more than five years.

I'm not watching porn anymore, but I did briefly get into random sexting to get some kind of high I'm in that phase rn but idk if I should quit it or not. Now I'm feeling confused and don't really know what to do. Five years is a long time, and I'm torn between giving in to the urge and staying committed to the progress I've made.

Slip-Up Prevention - Urgent! "avoid triggers" the triggers are EVERYWHERE BRO

5 Upvotes

its when you go out, its in your phone when you scroll, on insta, reddit, it's in the movies, it's even in lyrics that can psychologically make you want to do it. i'm only on day 7 and i'm struggling, i tried to scroll but saw a woman post her waist and ass crack, it's AESTHETICALLY very pleasing, then you get the urge to yourself go online and watch more, the more you avoid it, the more it fuels it for later... my plan is to go months but i don't think it'll happen unfortunately

Motivate Me Can we please get in some success stories in here

Upvotes

For a lot of people, like myself. Hearing others actually getting rid of their addiction and improving their lives for the better is really helpful.
I wanna know how your life has improved, your mind, your body, your relationship.

I’m suffering from PIED, and rarely to almost never get random erections, and no morning wood. I’m 21 and started in porn when I was 11 and feel like I’m too limp to ever have proper intimacy, when I’m with my girl i sometimes get erection sometimes not and when I do it’s not for long. Can you guys share your stories and experiences?

Relapse Report I relapsed on day 11, but I'm not giving up!

Upvotes

I relapsed today, and I feel shameful. However I won't let that destroy me. I will move on and not give up. A question, does relapsing once reset the work I did? I worked hard 11 days, is it like starting all over? Not that it'll stop me, just want to figure out what I'll have to deal with again.

I really want this to stop. I want to quit I want to do better how can things get easier I have no clue but I really want to try this time I really want to suck it up and try

Does it count?

2 Upvotes

I was urinating today (didn’t fap at all) but when I was semen came out. Does this count as masturbation? I heard semen naturally stays in the urethra for a long time, and at some point automatically goes out. I tried my hardest today, and simply not fapping and still getting this would be really disappointing. This has happened to me so many times.

Let me know!

Slip-Up Prevention - Urgent! Feels like everyone's advice isn't working

2 Upvotes

Everyone says to avoid triggers, which I do pretty well but it's still hard. I always just get random strong urges throughout the day, being triggered or not.

Idk if that's normal or what, but it feels like avoiding triggers isn't enough to not have urges. And I judt hate being stuck in this cycle
