    I mean, I've gotten to no mo for 50ish days and 111-115 days with no p. But it still never felt like was getting any better during that time. Right now I mostly mostly doing no pmo because I heard a stat that watching porn doubles your chance of getting divorce.

    For me it definatley does. But it might not work for everyone 100%.

    Social anxiety stems from a low self esteem. Nofap is one thing that can help with that but you have to look at other things too.

    Health
    Fitness
    Taking pride in your appearance
    Having a purpose in lfe
    Making peace with your past

    And on and on it goes.

    It takes upto 4-6 months to feel full benefits. If you can quit pmo until that period of time, you will see some drastic results.

    YMMV with regards to the intangibles of noFAP (confidence, less social anxiety) but for me I do feel more confident and less anxious and it only took me like 70 days

    NoFap is not about abstaining from pmo and getting some specific results in a specified time. It's about cleaning your mind, reclaim selfconfidence and selfworth.

    Just knowing "i do not watch porn, i do not masturbate" is the biggest present NoFap will give to you.

    Let me ask you something, does PMO really help social anxiety?

    I already know the answer.

    It's hard when you're lonely, and feel like I'll never find a wife.

    It depends on person. FOr some it can be much quicker like in 3 months but once you have a few months under your belt you start feeling great and you want to go as far as you can and you will do anything to reach that far because the pros outweighs the cons.
