    Today is my first day on NoFap. I'm really thankful for being able to receive such positive reinforcement from this forum. I am on Day 1 of my first ever serious consideration of quitting porn, and I'm very excited. Please wish me luck (and pray for me for those who believe in prayer).

    Today I will be calm.

    Does someone know where the "Today I'm grateful for...."-Thread is?
     
  5. I am having a good day so no need to relapse
     
  6. Today I am having a great day and recovering from PMO. I don't have any need to break my journey and I'm not even thinking about it. Everything is going perfectly.

    Today I had a PMO relapse. A small but beautiful german blonde porn star with a natural inclination towards anal sex. What were the effects? Firstly while kneeling down, my knees hurt. At first it felt good, also in the Hours afterwards. But now I feel kind of down. Life is less happy, less vigilant. Something inside of me became empty, when I ejaculated, which relieved me at first. We can only better ourselves, if we abstain from fapping, or fapping to porn (both are weird… Imagine entering a room where you find yourself fapping, that would be embarrassing and strange). So I can say that FAPPING TO PORN MAKES ME MORE DEPRESSED THAN I WOULD BE WITHOUT THAT.

    On the other Hand, if I don't fap for a week or two, I get Kind of aggressive (verbally). Is that the Aggression that was Always inside of me? Or is it the Long term Habituation effect - like: I am used to being Angry, and not fapping only brings that Anger out. Is it better to put it out, or Keep it for oneself? How can I become a better Person in the Long term?

    After all, I think intelligence and mood are better off if you resist, but Aggression is a Risk factor… If I fap, I am less aggressive in everyday life. Can be good, can be bad. What do you think guys?

  8. I also encounter agressiveness during recovery days. Might happen because the testosterone level rises, and then falls back down. Just stop relapsing and you'll see the after-recovery effects. Afterall, PMO is a drug, so we, the addicts, behave like drug addicts when we put it away.

    Interesting thought. Aggression comes If WE resist watching IT cause we are addicted to porn.

    Maybe its also: with No porn, WE are more aggressive NOW but peaceful in the Long Term,
    while with porn, WE would be more aggressive in the Long Term, but peaceful now? Or maybe the religious aspect is Missing.

    Pmo is an addiction. Its so hot but makes unhappy. It disturbs clear thinking. Many say it is a sin. Or is Nofap Just a nice Placebo effect? What do You think?

    Today I don't do porn because yesterday I experienced the after effects: Depression, sad mood afterwards, Kind of confusion, knees hurt, takes a lot of time. Then I had quite bad Sleep in my bed at night.

    Fapping to porn has positive sides too: sensual pleasure, cumming feels good and fapping also, watching hot women. You build off your horniness. You are less aggressive in everyday life… so that are the positive side effects.

  20. You said it, positive side effects, they are still side effects then. Nothing positive about PMO, just bailing out from everyday life instead of coping with it. Stay strong and never let your mind trick you into thinking there's anything positive about porn.
