**Introduction**  NoFap® is a moderated community-centered website that hosts challenges in which users ("Fapstronauts") abstain from pornography and masturbation for a period of time (often referred to as "rebooting"). This is NoFap's subreddit hosted right here on Reddit.com! Whether your goal is casual participation in a monthly rebooting challenge as a test of self-control, or whether excessive pornography use has become a problem in your life and you want to quit for a longer period of time, you will find a supportive community and plenty of resources here. 

This forum is intended for *porn addiction and compulsive sexual behavior recovery* and is not an anti-masturbation forum: many users return to non-compulsive masturbation after removing porn from their sexual habits. We do not advocate against masturbation. However, *excessive* masturbation (usually fueled by porn use) can be an issue for many people, and we're here to provide a peer support resource for recovery from problematic pornography use. But remember, how you choose to utilize your genitals during your free time is a personal choice!


**New Fapstronauts**

 * *Learn about what's going on in your brain.* This is important so that you know what to expect during a reboot. Our [Porn Addiction 101 page](http://www.nofap.com/porn-addiction) is a great place to get started. NoFap also has a [Getting Started](http://www.nofap.com/getting-started) guide. This includes information about porn addiction, sexual dysfunctions caused by porn such as "PIED", disinterest in real-world sex, and the inability to experience a partnered orgasm. Our friends over at YBOP have a great [introductory video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSF82AwSDiU) on the subject that we *highly* recommend watching. If you need something that's shorter, check out this [basic video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Ya67aLaaCc) by ASAPScience. For further resources to learn more about porn addiction, see our [wiki](http://www.reddit.com/r/NoFap/wiki/index) page for other websites, videos, and resources to help you on your rebooting journey.

 * Learn about the process of abstaining from PMO, also known as "rebooting." If you don't know what to expect from abstaining from porn and masturbation, there are a number of things that might throw you off. Learn about rebooting and how NoFap can help you on [NoFap's Rebooting 101 page](http://www.nofap.com/rebooting). *It is imperative* to learn about concepts such as the "flatline", the "surge", the "chaser effect", and more. Please get educated and don't enter this daunting process completely blind to what might happen.

 * We recommend [visiting with an appropriately qualified therapist](https://nofap.com/articles/how-to-find-a-therapist/) in your area who is familiar with porn addiction and problematic porn use.

 * Get a feel for the community before participating. Afterward, a good first step is to share your story with us. [Post a new thread](http://www.reddit.com/r/NoFap/submit?selftext=true).

 * This forum is for anyone - men and women and other gender identities - the only requirements are being a human and wanting to develop healthier sexual habits. If you are a woman who wants a private community, check out the [women's forums](https://nofap.com/forum/index.php?forums/women-in-reboot.22/).

 * Get an accountability partner, someone who will hold you accountable during your reboot. Post a thread here or [on the forums](http://www.nofap.com/forum/index.php?forums/accountability-partners.7/).

 * Choose your own reboot. *NoFap's Standard Reboot:* No edging, no porn, no masturbating. *"Hard Mode":* No edging, no porn, no masturbating, no orgasming whatsoever. *Lite Mode:* No porn. For more information on the programs, check out NoFap's [Rebooting 101](http://www.nofap.com/rebooting) page.

 * Sign up for a reboot challenge by replying to a the official sign up thread. These are usually "stickied" as the first post or linked on the sidebar. It is up to yourself to remain accountable, although we're working on developing a more motivating solution.

 * If you come across a word or acronym that you don't understand, we have a [glossary of terms](http://www.nofap.com/glossary) commonly used in the rebooting community.

 * Obtain a counter next to your name with Tracker.

 * [Read our full disclaimer and rules](http://www.reddit.com/r/NoFap/wiki/rules) before posting or participating in one of our rebooting challenges. 

 * If you are feeling suicidal or want to self-harm, [contact a prevention hotline](http://suicide.org/international-suicide-hotlines.html) immediately. Furthermore, we always recommending seeking mental healthcare if you are addicted to pornography.

 * Have an idea to improve NoFap's subreddit? Give us [feedback here](https://goo.gl/forms/Pu2s9gRpHaMK3C9y2).
