26 years old, 1 to 2 times daily MO with or without P. My longest streak was about 10 days last fall. I’ve quit smoking, completely overhauled my diet, go to the gym now 5 times a week, but I can’t kick this addiction. I feel weak and crappy right after cumming and it lasts for at least a day so I’m constantly feeling weak since I do it everyday... I need some help. Why is it so damn hard? When I went 10 days I felt incredible. I want to stop this addiction
Because its kind of a habit now. Growing from last 10 yrs or so. Bad habit + pleasure+ addiction is what happening here.
What about digestion.? How is your apetite and appreciation for food having 10 days under your belt in contrast to everyday relapse.?
Just don't give up, then. You saw improvement, and even completed a 10 day streak. Keep at it. You felt incredible when you achieved a 10 day streak, and felt like shit when you relapsed... Isn't that enough motivation to try a bit harder?
This is a very important point. The discussions here on NoFap treat the desire to look at females and have sexual release as unnatural. We must first acknowledge that natural desire is at the base of our PMO problems. Our biology is programmed for frequent mating and to spread seed. Internet porn excessively feeds that natural desire. We, however, have discovered and realized that this is depleting. Natural desire has become artificially enhanced to an excessive extreme. NoFap is hard because total abstinence is unnatural. I see it as asceticism. This is the higher and better way.
Been here with gym and stuff. Is hard. At least make sure u only do it at the end of day(night) if u must. this will preserve more energy. Hard thing too. Exercise = horny. And how ladies dress in gym = provocative. =( Train yourself to look away immediately. I smashed my PC with a bat and my smartphone. This how serious I am to quit PMO.
