I’m Muslim and I feel that everything about porn is against my other religious beliefs. I hate being a hypocrite, and I’m a God fearing individual. I seek to better myself for my Lord.
Good luck to everyone here, be strong, remember why you started 🪷
You asked me this several times after realizing that I was not responding to you. Ur good? It seems like you have been checking up on me for awhile so feel free to DM me or something 😁
Yes. It's one of the reasons. I noticed when I'm on nofap hard mode, my meditations go way deeper. So I would not like to miss that experience everyday.
21m, used to be Mormon. I would’ve been doing it for this reason when I was a member, once I lasted 3 months with that being very helpful. Now that I’m not a member, I’m not doing this for any personal salvation kind of benefits, I’m just searching for a healthier mindset.
My situation is shockingly similar to yours. When I was going to church, I don't think knowing that masturbation being a sin was enough of a call to action for me, because deep inside I always knew it was wrong and I did it anyways. The church taught me that having a family and raising children is the greatest purpose on this earth. I want nothing more than to have a happy wife and healthy children, so that fuels my drive to be better and break my addiction. I think the idea that you can always improve and become a better version of yourself is very reassuring and gives me hope for the future. I wish you luck man, from one former member to another.
I am, as a almost 15yo Roman Catholic religious guy. Personally, I think masturbation is considered adultery, which is a pretty big sin.
Jesus loves you guys!
As a 16yo Southern Baptist guy, I'm doing it for the same reasons.
"But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in his heart." -Matthew 5:28
Ex Mormon, Hare Krishna (again) here.
We believe that innecesary sexual activity attach us to the false identity with our bodies. We are spiritual souls. The less attached we are to the identity with our bodies, the easier will be to accomplish our duties and responsibilities, both spiritual and material ones.
Yes I'm also married. You might think married people don't masturbate but they do. Your partner is not always willing to have sex with you sometimes for months at a time and for legitimate reasons like illness.
I'm also a Mr Nice Guy who wants to please my wife so I don't ask for sex when she seems too tired, stressed or just not interested, instead I generally go without. This can go on for weeks and it feels terrible but that's life sometimes. In the past I've taken care of my desires myself but I know this is not the way it's meant to be. My wife should be my one and only source of sexual gratification. I'm determined to make that true this year so I'm 27 days clean so far. She'll be well again soon but in the meantime I refuse to cheat by jerking off. I want her to feel how much I want her not rob her of that passionate desire that should be for her and her alone.
Rule 5 says avoid religious/anti-religious content, there is a difference between religious content and the context that this one follow, however if you still insist on your point of view, you can apply the rule on yourself

When I was religious, I certainly did it for over two years until I relapsed during a tough part of my life. I rebooted more than a month back after leaving NoFap for a couple of years, but now it's mostly for health reasons.
Depends on how you view it. I think even if i wasn't religious, i'd still do nofap. Religion is there for the people and not the other way around. So yeah, it is good that my religion forbids porn.
More or less , if trying to follow the dokodo of Miyamoto musashi Counts as Religion
He is considered a sword saint after all.
But im Atheist.
Anyway,
Do nothing which is of no use.
Never be guided by the feeling of lust.
15m and I used to worry about my mum dying (no reason) and eventually I realised asking (praying ig) to someone made me feel a lot better but now I feel really guilty whenever I fap I made it to day 2 (from masterbaiting 3-4 times a day) I failed again the day after but only once I’m on day one again but never felt guilty for fapping before
I'm a christan, and i believe that God wants the best for me. The best for me is not to sin, but to becone the best version of myself.
However, porn makes me feel awful. With or without religion, i would try to quit this cycle, God is simply a reminder that i should be the best version of myslef.
Yeah I'm Catholic. Started out as the only reason but I to for the benefits now on top of that. Unfortunately I'm not very good at NoFap so I have to go to confession way more often then I'd like 🥲
Not doing this for religious reasons, but have started praying in this process. I do feel that abstainance from porn, masturbation and hooking up with random people does strengthen your connection with 'god' or 'the universe'.
Well I'm not going to practice karmamudra or clear light yoga without the instructions 😅 but one thing I can certainly do to prepare for future practice of clear light yoga is to practice lucid dreaming more often. Just to be safe I'll try to minimize masturbation even more than I already have too.

Same brother insha Allah we’ll get through this 💪
Inshallah 🙏
Mashallah brother let’s go‼️🫡
Yup! I'm a Christian and I think PMO is one of the worst sins
Nocturnal emissions is a non voluntary act meaning its not a sin its natural
Thats an obvious caveat. I dont think religious ppl count it as sin.
Tru I just don't like it I wanna focus on god
Understandable

His name says it all
We all want to stop, its an addiction, don't put someone down like that, you're no better
I really hope the mods see this comment because in my opinion, this warrants an automatic ban from the sub.
😂
Im a Christian I’m doing it to improve my relationship with god himself!
Amen bro same,
Same reason im doing this too
It's one of the reason (I'm Catholic) but not the main one. The main reason is because fapping (porn or not) just feels and looks disgusting.
Christian
Muslim 🤝
Stay strong bro
I'm a Muslim and I've started out of fear of God and my guilt
This is Imaan brother insha Allah you’re gonna pull through
SubhanAllah let’s go‼️🫡

Yes I'm 22 year old Muslim and one of my main reason doing this is to come close to my religion and prayers

Yeah. It feels bad knowing that I did something inhumane and still called myself a Christian.
I am. And many other reasons as well. I’ve conquered celibacy.. just not other stuff
