65 days.

The desire to jerk it has completely subsided. I never even think about it anymore. My ability to approach, conversate and bang women has increased substantially. I actually feel like a different person, more confident. Of course it's hard to directly correlate my success to this, but I'm sure it helps. The only negative I've noticed so far, and I forget if I posted this already or not, is the one time I had sober sex I blew in less than 10 seconds and had to pretend I was still going...and this was with a condom on. The desensitization associated with masturbation was over-corrected. When I drink and have sex though I'm fine.

Nonetheless a very positive experience for me and coupled with the lack of desire to masturbate honestly I'm not sure when I'll jerk it again in the near future.

You nailed it. Best advice.

Cutting out porn makes it so much easier. If you have an activity to do like hitting the gym, you have something to channel that energy into.

I just deleted all of my porn bookmarks and 10 gigs of porn that I've collected since probably 2000. Now it's all about will power by not using google.

I'm still going strong since early May.. Still unnerved by how easy it is.. My sex drive is way down from a few years ago

I've been able to go two weeks since trying this challenge, but never longer than that. It's time for better discipline.

Ok brothers, I am now joining your ranks.

I'm in the middle of an unprecedented flake-athon, I've been jacking it more and more, and in the last few days this has made me lethargic and un energized.
The kicker came today - I jacked it and then went to the gym where i almost promptly injured my knee.
Goal #1 - make it through the rest of August.

Do it man. I'm past two months now and if I don't approach a girl in about 48 hours or so I start twitching. It insanely boosts your desire to go out and talk to girls, I can't even describe it. Actually yes I can, I feel like a crack addict when I go so many days without interacting with a girl - I simply fiend it. Before, I could go all week and just be content with the weekend approaches/nights out.

Here is what I notice from my experiment. After day 3 I find myself dreaming more often and a majority of those dreams involve women or sex. Also, I don't really notice much of a difference in how I feel after about a week. I wouldn't say that day 24 I am much hornier or more aggressive than I was on day 8. I think it is just about maintaining that edge once you hit the peak.
Anybody else having the same results with dreaming?

I started this on sunday. I'm trying to study and am just twitching because I want to fuck so bad. Luckily one of my girls is coming over later, I should tell her to wear a skirt so I can just bend her over as soon as she gets in the door.

I am starting this challenge today -- I need the fking mental clarity to get things done.

I got a top girl, but the stable has dissipated...so I need to get back into the game.

Will report back periodically.

It has the same effect on me. What I've found is that it makes me focus on actual girl's bodies as opposed to porn or fantasies.

When you know that the only way you're going to get relief is penis in girl, it really concentrates your mind where it should be-that girl in front of you

I broke down-I'm in. Sorry Neil.

Over a week without sex

getting tougher

Thoughts on porn without nutting? should it count?

Well this is almost going to seem like a parody post but yeah, I can confirm that watching porn is a bad idea

Thought I was going to find a good stopping point, felt something start to happen that caught me off guard, tried to stop it, couldn't

Bam. Ended my streak after 3 months and 9 days I think.. Maybe 100 in total. Nine days without sex and trying to watch porn without finishing..finished me. Oh well. Starting again tomorrow, lets see if I can get to the end of 2012

Don't give in. And even if you do, it's way better to nut (without any porn or fantasy, just light manual stimulation) than the opposite. You don't have an addiction to ejaculation, you have an addiction to internet videos. Don't feed it that way.

9 days.

I definitely feel a surge in aggressiveness, but I think its basically strong confidence.
Feel of course, very very horny.
Mental clarity and focus on things accentuated and improved.
Motivation and desire to do things, and get out of my little comfort zone is strong.

Sometimes i want to give in, but i know the feeling of pathetic disappointment will kick in once i surrender.

So, never!

I'm impressed to see so many guys overcoming their male rationalization weasels. Realize the godly benefits from being in the <1 percentile of two major things - red pill sex interaction AND freedom of porn addiction! This + lifting/healthy living = unstoppable men

Here's a toughie that I face:

Let's say I go for a week or so without nutting/jerking (I do like the psychological effects). Then I pull a SNL and I nut within 2 minutes of penetration from the lack of sexual stimulation during the preceding week. It's embarrassing.

Any solutions?

FML. I caved.

I need to rebuild the harem.

I'm on day 5 now- no porn, no masturbation.

I've been masturbating at least once a day since I was 12 to internet porn. I found out about this 'no fap' trend through one of simplepickup's recent videos where they discuss how masturbation can kill motivation. I go out and game regularly, but there have been times where I let girls go when I could've pushed the interaction further.

There have also been a few occasions where I've had trouble maintaining an erection during sex and I also have problems with delayed ejaculation. It has always taken me at least 30 minutes to ejaculate, and only if I am very focused on busting a nut.

I read through some posts on yourbrainonporn where guys who have "rebooted" claim that it helped or cured their DE.

It seems like no fap/no porn has many potential benefits, I am attempting to go for the full 90 days.

Day 30...this is really damn hard. I'm really horny. Though I went through a phase last week with no morning wood and decreased libidio.

Excellent motivation to go out and game chicks though. I feel far more aggressive and energized. When I actually just focus on the moment, instead of thinking about busting a nut, I feel pretty good about myself. Self control for the win.
