NoFap's "Accelerate April" or "PMO-Free April" 2024 - continue or begin your PMO-Free journey here (see instructions).

Hello all,

It's that time of the month again. This is your opportunity to create the new porn-free you! One month is ending and another chance to continue or start your commitment is upon us.

The theme of this month is "Accelerate April". Implementing strategies that will help you push your recovery further.

The purpose of this thread is to provide rebooters with a place to share their commitment to abstain from particular sexual behaviors throughout the entire month.

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.

Update us!

If you want to post a quick update, such as "day 1!", please post it in this thread. Otherwise, feel free to post check-ins with information about your recovery onto the subreddit forum. Again, if you want to monitor your progress long-term, we recommend starting a journal thread on NoFap's main site to keep things organized into one place for you to refer back to.
