Boredom kills me.

Masturbating with pornography will not satisfy you. It feels nice for a short while, but it just leaves you feeling empty, so you keep going back to it again in again. Before you know it, you'll be addicted. You must tell your body "No!" when those desires start to attack your mind.

 

The biggest thing for me, is the lesson I learn everytime I cave into what my mind tells me and then regret it.

Regret isn't going to give you back your progress.

In fact, the temptations get stronger the higher you go and the more your brain will try to coerce you into getting its fix.

"Just watch one video today, it won't hurt"
"You're not seeing anyone right now, where's the harm?"
"It's bad for your prostate" (Not true)
"But my body has to release semen" (It does, naturally)

You'll find yourself making reasons which somehow make sense to you until you ejaculate, then you'll realise how awful it is.

Also imagine one day being with a girl and finally making love, and then you get porn-induced erectile dysfunction. You feel bored while having normal sex. Would you want that? Because it is a huge probability for men with porn addictions and fetish escalation.

I know this is going to sound ironic but stop coming to NoFap. Your intentions are that you don't want to PMO anymore, so try to go out and do something. Get your mind off this entire topic and make it easier on yourself

 

This will sound a little cliche, but when I'm lonely, I study my favorite subject...which (and please do not be alarmed) is Ethical Hacking. I have spent weeks working on "projects", quite recently I have turned my attention to programming (not scripting), just because I have many friends that do it as a career and they seem to be happy (though when I did s/w dev, I was constantly stressed, but Dev s/w has changed and debugging is a walk in the park). My point to all this, simply try something new to occupy your mind.

I'm always learning, day in day out....

Best of luck and keep up the good fight!

 

You need to switch your mind into thinking that porn is the thing that gives you stress (and guilt of course). That's how I feel now because that was just a bad habit and not "stress reliever" and It just gives you a lot of stress. NoFap will make you a better person, feelings will be more deeper, people would be more attracted to be around you, You are shining, and alot more. and the stress you will have is losing All this benefits (better life and how it's supposed to be), because you've never felt this good before, and you want to feel this again, and keep it going that way. Even if you will fail you'll still do better than the average person that "fails" daily, but try to do as far as you can. And keep it up. Also keep in mind alot of people with you is trying to win the battle, and don't get impact from others that's talking about bad stuff related to this.

 

I started almost 2 weeks ago and I started to get out.. I went hiking and swimming.. Every second day.. I started to cook my favorite food and to go to the movies by myself.. I even went hiking with a really hot girl but I recognized that she's too superficial for me instead of going home with her.. And I recognized that I wasn't able to enjoy the hiking with her because she was just running around and couldn't enjoy the nature.. So fuck it! I won't meet her anymore and enjoy more time by myself!

 

Get out of the house and do something. Make yourself a better person. Stopping PMO is only the first step it isn't the end all be all. Start working on yourself. Pick a goal set your mind to it and then do it.

 

Porn will only increase your boredom. Have you tried finding out recreational activities suitable to your tastes in your local area?
