Quit porn day counter

Put in the day you stopped. This page counts from it, and day one is the day itself. It shows the next mark on the milestone ladder Unhooked uses, and how many days away it is. The date is written to this browser and to nothing else — no account, no cookie, no server call.

What a day count is for

A day count is a record, not a verdict. It says how long it has been and nothing else: not how well you are doing, not whether you will be fine, not what sort of person you are. Its whole use is that it sits there when you look, without you having to remember anything.

And if the count goes back to one, the days before it still happened. A slip does not erase what you built — you learned your own evenings, your own triggers and what an urge feels like when it passes on its own, and none of that is stored in the number. That is the app's law too, and it is why nothing here calls a number good or bad.

What tends to change around each of those marks is set out, milestone by milestone, on the recovery timeline — every line either cited to real research or labelled as reported experience. Unhooked runs the same ladder on your phone, where the count survives a cleared browser.

Questions people ask

Does day one start on the day I quit or the day after?

The day you stopped is day one. It is the hardest single unit of the whole thing and you did it, so it counts. Unhooked uses the same rule on the phone, which is why the two numbers agree.

What are the milestones and where do they come from?

Day 1, 3, 7, 14, 30, 60, 90, 180 and 365 — the ladder the app uses. It is a rhythm, not a biological schedule, and no mark on it claims anything about your body. What research supports and what people merely report is separated out, mark by mark, on the recovery timeline.

What happens to my date if I clear my browser?

It goes. The date lives in this browser's local storage and nowhere else, so clearing site data, using a private window or switching browsers all give you a blank counter. Nothing is recoverable from us, because we never had it.

What if I slip?

Put in the new date and keep counting. Nothing is undone by it: the weeks you did are weeks you did, and what you learned in them is still yours on the next attempt.
