The main cause behind this is that I don't do anything to channel the sexual energy I have. My last big noporn achievement was 60 days and I did it because I was busy all the time and used the sexual energy I had to push myself in the gym and force myself to approach girls.
Now I don't really game much or go to the gym, I need to get out of this negative spiral.
Every time I think it can't get worst it just does.
It will be 2 months for me with no fap, no porn in 5 days. Today it's extremely diffficult, it's been 10 days since last girl.. Had to take my laptop and go out, otherwise I would go nuts. What is worst, coffee shop nearby has this cute little Korean serving me coffee - can not focus on anything else.
For the record, this is my first try. 23 years old, staying in Seoul; South Korea. I can feel better focus and have more non-sex related thoughts, which is great, but lately cannot do second/third round with a girls I am not really that much attracted to. I will keep trying tho.
Day 56 for me.
EDIT:
I checked more cons and pros on this, and I think I will do full 2 months with fapping then once - twice a week. Most important thing will be to use only imagination, with no porn whatsoever. Never watching it again. Two monts to make it nice, round number and also to make sure I am making right decision, as I am not able to think clearly on this topic right now.
Not leaps and bounds or anything big to report since its only been two days. But I noticed some things thus far, I went to a friend's dance show last night and some of the dancing got me a bit buzzing. I noticed body movement a lot more. My energy levels are still a bit low, I just feel low. After the show I still managed to flirt with some of the girls but I felt mechanic. Last observation, I sleep with a body pillow, probably shouldn't anymore. It feels like a crutch.
Welcome aboard, Snowplow and others. Wintertime is a great time to join. The new year provides a fresh start, and saying "I haven't jerked off in 2017" is strong motivator.
Daily posting is acceptable of course, but the posts are only beneficial to the others if you share your experience. Even a quick, "I feel great today," or "the urges were strong so I went for a long walk in the park," are infinitely more valuable than "Day 3."

What's the point in doing that? What difference would it make if you started in 2017 instead of just keeping your streak going? Not to sound like a dick, but don't ruin it just because you want to be down with the New Year's resolutions crowd.
So, day 20 again. I didn't fap, per se, but as I did ejaculate so I count it as that. I have been working my PC muscles quite regularly and out of sheer boredom I decided to perform a "no hand"-er.(no physical stimulus) I was successful. It felt great has none of the fall off of PMO and gives me a strong sense of control. I'd prefer full on retention, but I think releasing old build-up isn't a bad idea. I can say after a while of working the PC muscle and 10 days or so of retention, I can force myself erect. However, I did watch a bit of porn, which didn't really do anything for me, but did give my mind the fuel to get the imagination flowing, but for the sake of being able to come at will with no external stimulus will be the goal (outside of getting a lay). I will say that Fall and winter are the worst times for me, without a doubt. Definitely want to be LI somewhere warm at all times. Since my previous post I have had a mediocre diet and no workout. I have maintained proper fluids and good supplement intake, but everything else is at a stand still. Granted an unstable living environment does that and working through it is what I can do. Here's to improving before 2017
p.s. - I am with this new found "no-hands" capabilities. I think with some compound workouts and sometime, it might be some type of superpower. lol I jest.
Had masturbated for several years but have never entered a porn website until a few weeks ago. After a week or so of watching porn and using it to fap I made the resolve to cease all porn after reading this website: http://yourbrainonporn.com/
I'm currently stopped porn for a few days but have lapsed on masturbation. Even without porn my mind will make its own porn in my imagination.

No porn / daily fap
Get a nice girlfriend and your problem is solved.
I interact with toxic American women on a daily basis. And my social circle / acquaintances / city have very few foreign women. Don't see girlfriend anytime soon.
I started 2 days ago, I want to quit porn for good. I enjoy 4chan a lot though and its hard to visit 4chan without jerking off. I know I cant use that site at all if I want to stick to this. The longest I've ever gone without jerking off to porn is 3 weeks.
I can't even get past day 1-2, spent 1 hour in bed fighting urges then gave in on day 1 and binged. Anyone have some advice that can help me pass the beginning stages, I know it's unhealthy for me but I'm too addicted.
