Check in day 93.. Yesterday i had depression attacks but they didnt cause urge to pmo... Actually A missed cold showers +meditation plus i had sneek peek of music .... Plus i got sleep arousals (cravings in dream today as i took short nap in the afternoon... Apart from that everything is fine
Well i tried during the month of ramadan..but yesterday had a sneek peek of music... I did not feel good afterwards
so is it just me or you too sometimes feel empty? like you don't want to do anything even after NOFAP. Like just this weird emotion?
It is the emptiness that cannot be filled by anything else, you might look for material things, but they cannot satisfy it. You might think that loving someone would fix it, but it persists. It is truly the heart calling out for the truth. The innate predisposition to find God. To remember God. To love and worship God. This feeling might sometimes subside when you keep your mind occupied with things. But it's never really gone. The Quran says, " Verily in the remembrance of Allah (God) do hearts find rest!" [13:28] The truth may be found through different places, but the source of that truth is one and the same
So, 30 days... Feels like a long time. I’ve had the best time on this community, and all that support and motivation is the reason I’m here. Things may not always go your way when you’re in this seemingly endless battle against pmo, but, lemme remind y’all, as Napoleon Hill rightly said: “Take control of your mind before it controls you”. Well, I feel this is apt for all of us, considering the fact that all of us have embarked on this great journey of getting back control of our lives. Tough it may seem on the outside, but the real satisfaction that you obtain after you achieve your prescribed goal, is beyond what pmo or any addiction can offer. Obviously, life during NoFap, is supposed to be normal. Like normal-normal. Where you don’t use pmo as a tool to relieve yourself from the pace of the world, or to feel better after you’ve miserably failed that test you didn’t study for. We learn to accept life the way it is. Yes, it is like a sinusoidal wave, or at the extremes could even be similar to a tangent graph! But, whatever the situation might be, we, as humans learn to use our brains, something that we’ve all got, that’s a million times more advanced than that screen that you stare at when you pmo. So stay strong guys, the grass might after all be greener on the other side! So stick with me as we march on towards victory! “I could either watch it happen, or be a part of it” Peace!
