Seeing as how we get multiple threads a day on this same topic, let's try and condense it all here for the month of November.

It’s November again, which means a lot of people are taking on No Fap November — trying to go the entire month without porn or masturbation.
This thread’s for anyone on /adv/ who’s participating or just curious about the idea. Whether you’re doing it for mental clarity, discipline, relationship reasons, or just to challenge yourself — post here.
Let’s talk about:
Why you’re doing it this year
What’s helped you stay consistent
How to deal with urges and setbacks
Any benefits or changes you’ve noticed
Whether you think it’s actually worth it or just a meme
No need for “purity crusade” talk or shaming anyone who slips up. Just honest discussion and advice.
We’re one day in — how are you holding up?
>>
>>33884906
I forgot it was November and already lost.
>>
Last year I lasted about two weeks before I gave in

This year I plan to go all month just for the hell of it
I remember the first few days being hard but I think I’ll be able to get through this month
>>
>>33884906
>Stopped doing it in summer last year
>Haven't done once it since like january.
It's not that hard, y'all coomers just need discipline. (I still get horny often.)
>>
>>33884906
>Why you’re doing it this year
my sex/porn habits are getting out of control
>Whether you think it’s actually worth it or just a meme
depends on the individual, for me it's necessary
>>
>>33884992
could you elaborate on why those habits are getting out of control?
>>
>>33885011
>why
regular porn addiction: what i used to masturbate to didn't hit hard enough after a while so i had to watch more porn and more intense porn to get off, it got so bad that i ended up paying prostitutes for sex
>>
>>33884992
I'm just trying to quit porn. Staring at a screen for so long has killed my sleep schedule and while my thoughts are mostly just being desired and prayed upon by a moderately attractive women the shit I look up is way worse.
>>
i went a little too far this year, i started watching BNWO ironically because the music was good in the spring, but i just kept watching. eventually i was reading r/cuckpsychology and getting really into erotic JOI audios that start with you just hearing "your crush" getting fucked through the wall but then the black bull catches you and your gf forces you to do bi stuff. i got an 8"x6" black dildo that really hurt at first, every time i had to tense and breathe through getting the big cock head to go in and just sit there for 5 minutes until i gradually started wiggling it. the last 6 months have been the best cums of my life as i just got used to slamming it in. i can have full seeing stars prostate orgasms within 60 seconds of insertion.

this week though i was cleaning my asshole in the shower and immediately felt guilty and hopeless. it's so loosey goosey now, it's not a struggle to get my dildo in at all any more. I'm 100% straight, but now even when I'm turned on by girls being pretty my immediate physiological response is my asshole starts winking and wants penetration.

I'm deeply, deeply ashamed of how far out of control i let this get so I'm doing at least a month of no porn and no nutting. i was just wondering if anyone had any good tips to get back into being totally straight sexually, so your prostate isn't involuntarily begging for pleasure any time sex comes up and how to get my asshole tight again? I'm really worried the doctors will know what I've been doing if they have to inspect it, or if i do start dating a girl (zero interest in men) she will feel it and go "why are you so well trained back here?"

also do i have to stop listening to gessafelstein and lazer sword and one true God and this other good music i made from things i heard in BNWO? it makes me feel like a cool guy to play it and gives me confidence

Iv just noticed something right now that may sound really simple to most you, but i´ve never really stopped to realize it fully. I just really, from the bottom of my soul, don´t know how to cope without porn. Memories, pain, lonliness.

I work out, i pray, i go out, i try but always, in the end, i can´t sit with the pain of past memories, of anxiety. I don´t know how to live without coping, coping using porn.

>>33884906
>Why you’re doing it this year
I started fapping daily a few months ago
I feel ashamed for not controlling my urges
If nofap can give me super magic stuff then I'll practice it too
I want a challenge as well
>Whether you think it’s actually worth it or just a meme
100% worth it
>>
>>33884906
I would also say that if you want to browse 4chan without relapsing then you need to install 4chanx and automatically hide all images so you don't accidentally see porn.
Though you're better off just not coming here.
>>
>>33884913
i think you need a second chance
>>
>>33884906
>Why you’re doing it this year
I keep trying to tone down on the porn regularly and sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. Obviously I've never managed to quit completely. But it's like the whole thing with new years resolutions, where having an "official" date for it tricks your mind into making it easier
>What’s helped you stay consistent
Knowing that the hardest thing to get past is the very beginning, where you're mostly fighting the habit. I've once managed to quit for 200 days and it becomes so much more easy after the first few weeks or so
>Any benefits or changes you’ve noticed
None of the magical bullish people keep posting about online. But the regular stuff you get from quitting a bad habit like confidence in regards to self control, one less thing to waste your time on, more motivation to do other shit instead
>Whether you think it’s actually worth it or just a meme
I think it's a bit of a meme to go in with the expectation that on the first of December you'll just go back to normal like nothing has happened.

Honestly the most annoying part is just how used I am to absentmindedly play with my nuts while sitting at my desk
>>33885366
I'd extend this advice by adding on that you should do some soul searching about what your triggers are. I know that for me some video games get me mega horny (even some that don't really have anything overtly sexual about them for some reason)

I just wanna let you know, that people who act like you are the reason why I never wanted anything to do with Christianity. And it took meeting one of the nicest people in the world (who is religious) to remember that not all Christians are the 4chan types that seemingly just use their religion to justify hate against others.
Feeling righteous about someone else going to hell is kinda fucked up dude.

>Why you’re doing it this year
Getting married next year, want to quit using porn as a crutch and direct all that sexual energy at my fiance.
>What’s helped you stay consistent
Wife is gorgeous and a great lay, I'm not really doing "no nut" as much as I'm doing no porn. I'm gonna try being a lot more direct about wanting sex instead of dropping her hints, and be more forward about things I want to try with her.
>How to deal with urges and setbacks
By forgiving yourself for feeling the way you do and resolving to be better, same way I got through alcoholism years back.
>Any benefits or changes you’ve noticed
Nothing yet, only day 2.
>Whether you think it’s actually worth it or just a meme
In my case, definitely. In the case of anyone with porn addictions or particularly extreme fetishes, absolutely.
>>
>>33884906
Fuck it I want to indulge in some hedonism but, I need to quit porn as it's gotten to the point where I need tiny girls who talk about getting their cunny ruined to get me off.
That and I had a pretty bad mental break so I'm sure not gooning will help with the anxiety
No Nut November Niggas
>>
>>33889274
eh I think it could be debatable but I guess at the core of your opinion is porn is bad and I can't disagree with that
>>
>>33889409
>with particularly extreme fetishes.

So what is the consensus on someone who watches porn a few times a week and doesn't watch anything extreme? Even if it's solo girl content.

I don't think it's still 100% ok but is ALL porn bad or are there levels to it where we judge on a case by case basis?
>>
>>33884906
No fap implies nutting is okay.
If you want to nut, you should get into HFO by stimulating the prostate via clenching.
You can find some good erotic audios for this on /t/.
>>
>>33889784
I've had some amazing nuts using my imagination via past experiences vs porn
>>
>>33889796
Imagination + clenching resulted in some back to back hfos for me. So epic.

>>33889743
If you had problems with porn, you would know it. You wouldn't be asking.

>>33890513
This wasn't about me, it was more to spark a conversation
>>
>>33889228
>>33884913
That's good advice for getting any bad habit under control or kicking any addiction.
Most likely you will "fail" sooner or later and how you deal with that is the biggest test (bigger than fighting the urge that got you to "fail" in the first place), do you beat yourself down and just give up, or do you accept that changing a habit is hard, setbacks happen and you just need to keep going.
>>33889409
>By forgiving yourself for feeling the way you do and resolving to be better, same way I got through alcoholism years back.
This guy gets it
>>33889743
My two cents are that it's probably similar to alcohol, smoking weed, eating junk food, wasting time scrolling through social media and similar bad vices. There probably is some "healthy" dose that you can get away with, but quitting outright will probably always be better anyways.
Also I've once talked about addictions with my therapist and they said that quitting outright is many times easier than going from an "unhealthy" to a "healthy" dose. Even if your brain will tell you to do the latter, because it will fight tooth and nail to prevent you from quitting.

>I'm 100% straight
Nothing of what you just fucking wrote was straight. You're gay, nigga. Anon, seriously, read what you just wrote.
>>
>>33884906
hi, never posted here before but I felt like this is the right place. It's nothing dramatic just putting my experience with no fap into writing.

i'm close to two months of no-fap after decades of doing it at least once a day and the only thing out of the ordinary is having a harder time writing text like i'm doing right now, the words simply come wrong and out of order. Not even sure if it's related, probably (reverse?) placebo. Other than that everything is kind of normal. Sometimes (once a week maybe) i get urges and my dick get precum'd but i just take a piss and it usually goes away. Really strong urges i just wash my dick in the shower with cold water.

When I go to sleep right now I don't instinctively grab my cellphone anymore and everytime I think of jacking off, my consciousness just slaps the back of my head like i considered doing heroin or some other harmful thing to my body.

Anyway, like i said, nothing too dramatic, I do feel better about stuff in general and that's something nothing else ever made me feel in a long time.

Same bull shit that happened last year is happening this year

I start this NNN, I get to day 2 or 3 and I feel this underlying horniness
Then once day 4 or 5 passes, it becomes super easy

Last year I broke around day 18 just because I was super bored at home but this year I won't
>>
>>33891664
good job anon, two months is something to be proud of. i don't know if this a life long thing for you but taking a break is always healthy.

I personally want to go 90 days minimum but it won't be a life long thing for me
>>
>>33891957
thank you for reading my post for the kind words

>i don't know if this a life long thing for you

I don't know either desu. One thing that kept my way in the beginning was the idea of doing the first step into forever. What should be the proper reaction for relapsing after a month? or after two months? six months? a year? should I be proud for hanging on for so long? should I be mad at myself for letting a streak go to waste just for a quick meaningless release? My biggest fear right now is exactly, what would my reaction be if I relapse?

I think you should always be nice to yourself whether you choose to break your streak or not

I think the most important aspect of this is keeping it in moderation and if you're already on a break, you've proved to yourself that you can keep it in moderation.
Just remember to be kind to yourself

How about NO FINDOM November?

I'm so fucking addicted to findom. The girl I'm talking to is so strict and bossy towards me. I just gave her $600. What did I get in return?

A few DMs about how I'm not fit or capable for making decisions on my own. How she's so generous to be making my decisions for me.

And I'm fucking hooked. I believe her. I'm a retard who needs a woman to tell me what to do.

Do I just kms? I can't stop myself when a strict, dominant woman tells me what's best for me. I really feel like I need her in my life.

I'm 36 and never had a girlfriend. This is all I have. And it's technically not a porn addiction because she's not a sex worker. I receive no benefits other than being controlled. She's just a random girl on Twitter who likes being in charge.

I need some comments/thoughts on my situation

I have a fetish for women acting like sluts in public settings, so sluts/OF models thirst baiting on insta is what I like the most. The appeal is unironically that they're humiliating themselves insta and a combo of the "begging for it" kind of thing and I crank it imagining myself fuck them.

Most of the women I attract IRL have a humiliation fetish too but I have health problems and haven't had sex in years.

so anyway its not like I'm cranking it to porn all the time technically, but I still think this was unhealthy. But at the same time I'm not getting a gf anytime soon

I thought of doing NNN, but I for health reasons I had to quit sugar this month (like ALL sugar) and that alone is a massive undertaking with withdrawals and stuff so I figured I may as well nut here and there because I could legit go crazy qutting both at the same time. I may join in for the last half of Nov or do a no nut December instead. But then I'll be horny as fuck over the holidays which would be weird.. idk.. no nut january?
>>
>>33894262
hi, not sure if i understand what are you asking but reading your post I felt the need to ask, and i'm doing this in the most non-judgemental possible. Is there a chance that the reason you're not doing NNN is a cope? Be honest with yourself if you tried no nut october or september would you have also found an easy motive to not do it? I ask this because i fell into pit traps of reasoning my own vices like "i can stop whenever i want, i'm just having a rough time lately/i'm having a too good time lately/i'm just bored/my favorite show ended/price of smokes have gone up again/i've been watching star trek and beverly crusher is too hot/etc/etc..."
>>
>>33894284
i guess it is a cope. I'm having a lot of anxiety around my health problems and feel like I need nutting as a temporary break from it here and there. I'm also genuinely worried that any additional stress could worsen it

so yeah, I will not do NNN this time just because I need to keep stress as low as possible but I won't be cranking like crazy either, just in moderation because I just can't handle "one more thing" rn but I will go on a break when things settle. Idk I just can't risk the additional stress.
>>
>>33894317
cool man, i'll be rooting for you. Try to set a date in the future and go for a week, see if it works for you. I started small but then I managed to go a lot further than I ever expected of me
>>
If you genuinely do NNN you're a faggot. Just stop completely bruh it's not even that hard. Porn addiction is not even real. Learn to take accountability and controll whatever urge you think you have. If anything you engage in the addiction because you like suffering and ofc there is comfort in missery.

not only is this poor bait but you should try harder next time

I was able to successfully curb off of mommydom ASMR videos for a year but now I'm obsessed with them again. I never was able to get rid of porn but after realizing how mediocre sex without companionship is but realizing how improbable my chances of finding love is I've been sinking further into delusion and don't know how to stop. I'm back to being jobless and being stuck in my room all day.

>>33893560
Damn that sounds like a sweet gig. Are the DMs text only? Would it be reasonably possible to set up a findom account as a dude who poses as a chick?

>>33894188
Boredom is good btw. We live in a world where the internet has effectively eradicated boredom from our lives and that shit is horrible for mental health and creativity. Harness the boredom to pick up new hobbies or start a creative project.
I've actually started a little habit where every day I deliberately sit down and do nothing for a set amount of time and just exist in my headspace. As a sort of "artifical boredom" kind of thing. It's surprisingly nice.
>>
>>33884906
I've lasted one day longer each time I tried. Only 27 more years to go

>>33894188
Same. I just keep playing porn games but without masturbating now. I just have 2 extra hours to kill
>>
I quit nicotine effortlessly because it was clear the tachycardia and high blood pressure were gonna kill me. The negatives of continuing and the positives of quitting were obvious, so I successfully quit.
When I was a teenager I lost 60lbs one uear going from obese to normal weight. It was successful because, again, the negatives of staying obese and the positives of being normal weight were obvious.
I even recently started running which I've always absolutely hated. I've worked up to running almost 4 miles every other day. Again, it was doable for me because the positives of doing so were undeniable.
With fapping/porn, I'm just not convinced. Wrt time wasting, I waste so much more time doomscrolling this shithole and KF than I waste on porn. Wrt productivity, I'm achieving most everything I've set my eyes on, and if anything is getting in the way of bigger success, it's the time I'm wasting on vidya, doomscrolling, etc, not porn. Wrt dopamine, I really don't feel like it does anything to me that a few deep rips of a strong nicotine vape doesn't do. Which is obviously not great, but not a debilitating life ruiner.
The only thing is that I do suffer from ED. But I also have a bunch of mental and emotional problems that predate my discovery of porn. On the stints of being porn free I've had in my life, these problems never really subsided. What does help, however, is being comfortable with a girl; thw first few tries at sex might suck, but after that I could fuck her like a champ 24/7 regardless of porn use.
For these reasons, I'm out.
>>
>>33895960
it's fine, if anything it's a good thing that you don't need nnn
>>
>>33884906
This challenge is for weak men that want an excuse to feel empowered and placebo effects of not nutting.

Show discipline throughout your life. Simply masturbating every now and then wont harm you nor is it good for you to avoid it. Keeps your prostate healthier. Minimum once a week either with a girl or yourself.

No nut novembers is exactly like fat bitches who drink exclusively water. Everyone knows it doesnt mean anything.

Honestly just trying to curtail my use of porn in general. I've fixed most of my health issues, gotten in better shape this year, lost a bunch of weight. Porn is kind of one the last things I'd like to kind of drop. I don't care about stopping jerking off, but turning off porn would at least make me more willing to try going on dates.

I just wish I hadn't have wasted my teens and 20s by not dating. I wouldn't be so damaged.

I've once gone 200+ days without porn and the first week or two was absolutely the hardest, because I was so used to jacking it out of habit. Breaking that makes everything a lot easier.
That said I'm currently in the type of mood where usually I would have allowed myself to jack off pretty much just out of boredom and fighting that is crazy difficult.
I'm confident in making it 30 days, my real worry is if I just relapse into my old habits after that or manage to keep pushing
