First time here, thanks @artifact for adding me in. Checking in, on day 7 here (After a reset last week). All going well and resistance is strong at the moment. While online today a Victoria’s Secret ad appeared on the sidebar, but it didn’t do anything for me, no reaction, no urge to go further. So I’m staying strong, and meditating to give the brain a rest and use up some spare time!
I am starting to notice changes. Increased energy, confidence and I am remembering song lyrics, lol. I guess that is the fog lifting
checking in... had urges again this morning but resisted them, now going strong into the weekend, gonna ride my bike today and work out tonight, then go to sleep. Tomorrow i'll ride and do some sketching. The one thing all these activities have in common? they distract me from porn and fap... good luck everyone, and stay in it to win it through the weekend.
I'm on Day 17 and heading out of town for a long weekend, returning Tuesday, Day 20. Coming home from a trip is always a surefire trigger to sit and watch porn for some reason--my last streak of 38 days ended with my return home. This trip is quick so I don't think the temptation will apply and I have made plans for the afternoon of my return. We'll see. February ended strong and I hope March will be a perfect clean month of 31 days.
Really need to get NoFap streak going. been interviewing for jobs like crazy but no offers yet. have a feeling NoFap would help a lot. anyone have a suggestion for blocking software on iphone? switching from android to iphone only because people here mentioned its much easier to block p on iphone.
Nofap has sparked a renewal in many areas of my life. I swim or gym every day and eat healthily so have lost a lot of weight. My attitude is much more positive in general and I easily see the good in people. Very vivid dreams. Waking up earlier. Calmer. No mood swings or anti-social feelings. And now at last I'm starting to experience less brain fog for which I am very grateful. Superpowers? Yes, I feel like a man, a free man, a good man.
checking in, my guys, almost day 10 and going in strong to finish this weekend ... stay strong everyone
Glad to hear this. Pretty amazing streak you've got going there. I would like to ask you this: Did the urges to look at P or to M ever completely subside for you or is it still an ongoing struggle. I have made it to 56 days but have never gotten to the point where I could just "coast" with it. My last streak went pretty smooth but then I got slammed with urges when I hit day 43. This time I want to make it to 90 days.
Good luck. The key when you get hit with temptations is to remember that you don't have to act on it and realizing they will eventually pass and you'll be OK. Hopefully being in this group will help to keep you out of trouble too.
