Hi all recently reached 30 days and wanted to tell you all about my success, difficulties as someone who’s new to nofap. In the first few weeks the urges were really strong however i got through it via exercise, reading and yoga. As well as this i thought back to how i felt before nofap as my main source of motivation as in do I want to feel like that again. Then week 3 i was ill so that was a struggle as i was in the house. It was also around then that i began feeling super restless at work but i used exercise to get through this. Also telling yourself that you’re in control is crucial. If you say im in control, yes ive just had an urge but its down to me whether i act on it or not. So now positives: Orgasmed with my girlfriend for the first time Boosted confidence in week 3 1/2 - allowed me to stand up for myself and argue, need to learn to control anger though More appreciative of simple pleasures- nice view Feel similar feelings to when i was a kid - more silly and having positive feelings about random stuff e.g the weather or spending time with my family Genuine interests Not giving a fuck about what others think Knowing what i want more Noticing more about how im acting Proactive No longer feeling shit from porn Feelings of self control make u feel strong Negatives: Dry penis Restlessness Angry Not always sleepy I’m not too sure about superpowers etc but i feel nofap is crucial to having a successful life and it opens the door to this. It is a must do for many people you just have to have the perseverance. Just do 30 days and. You’ll realise nofap could be the key. It makes you notice all the shit that was wrong before which you can change. I know im not going back now! Stay strong brothers!
I haven't done many days sincerely but I am all about interacting with people talk of surprising myself I feel like a new being sometimes I feel a bit gloomy but there is a feeling of accomplishment and a more clear mind. I swear it feels so good. The confidence too. And yes you are very right you just gotta tell your self you got control of yourself. For me it's always like do I wanna be an alpha male or that fucked up boy who keeps wasting his energy on some few minutes of pleasure and the former wins. It's not easy but with each step you become better. Thankyou for your post it was a motivation I am so glad to have read it
Yeah you’re right man. For me nofap it is really the escapism that is the draw. We all pick up the dopamine addiction which makes it harder to quit, however at this stage i feel im mainly tempted as i want to escape all the shit going on. We gotta, as men, learn to face stuff thats going on. Of course this is hard, elements of life and the world can be shit. But i think everyone would rather look back on their life and think ive faced depressing stuff and happy stuff and ive got through it and im glad to have felt everything. Quitting nofap allows us to live fully and face problems, both in the world and within ourselves, to hopefully make stuff better by accepting responsibility. Im glad ive helped just one person by sharing my story, good luck man Also, with the alpha male dont sweat it man. Not everyones an alpha and has to dominate encounters. I know im not. It will allow you to have self confidence and hold power in conversation and relationships. Nofap will allow you to be your true self, whoever this may be and this is all we can hope for. Hope this helps
I just got 5 days today, for the first time i was having urged to look at porn, i took three cold showers and used the panic button, it worked wonders, ive had more than 6 months in the past so i know i can do it again! Im driven! We can do it!
Excellent work! I'm glad to hear you are getting so many benefits after 30 days. I'm just starting out, and your message is inspirational to me!
It sure helps so much my brother. Again you pour more sense with every post it's sure about being me and the best version of me. Thank you Thank you alot
Good going dude. Keep it up. Awesome post !! The removal of brain fog is one of the major factors which makes us see the reality as it is instead of living in porn/fantasy world. This world may not be perfect, but it has so many wonderful opportunities to make our lives better and also of people around us. Peace.
