180 Day Warrior Challenge (Updated)

only 15 more days!

 

Im Out

 

Checking in for tonight. I am still staying in a hotel room and am writing this to simply be honest and committed to not act out tonight. Glad to be on the right track!

 

Sorry to hear that! Be down but not out ! You can find your motivation!

 

Day 2/180

 

Day 5

Question, does nudity in art or film count as porn?

Where do we draw the line?

As this is a lifestyle change we're doing, does this mean no watching of films with any content like this? I mean, what even happens if its a film about strippers, escorts or even porn stars?!

Curious about your thoughts

 

Checking in. I kinda feel itchy inside my balls. Is it normal?

 

Day 31 checking in. 1 month checking in! Good luck everyone!

 

checking in. Day 12.

 

Is there still a place ?? because i want to be in . my streak is 18 days i just started NoFap but i am willing to take this challenge as i am not that addicted

 

I m new on this. Really keen for fresh start and down for any challenge. Please help

 

Checking in. It's Monday. Feeling strong after a positive weekend. Love my wife and love my life.

 

I relapsed. Counter set to zero.

 

41 days done, check!

 

Same thoughts here. Because of a dream this morning.
About movies: if you drool when you watch things like that, thenyou are still addicted and you have to restart your counter.
If you shrug those parts, you are good. My 5 cent.

My update: came here to share that and 4Warned had similar question.
Background: I grew up with erotic magazines and books and my wet dreams are 99% watching others have sex. I had only two dreams were I am having sex.
So this morning I saw porn in my dream and there were body parts visible and I was like "oh, i must restart my noFap". Then i realized that it shouldn't count, i was not my intention.
Fun part is that later i had a lucid dream: i realized i am in a dream and took control over it.
There was a mid age woman and i was thinking to have sex with her.
Good thing i remembered bad experience from earlier dream and I did not go for it.
In a nutshell: i had a flat line for a week and yesterday my systems woke up again. I am not giving in to the temptation.

You are welcome! There is no cap on max players here and we are on the same team.
Be strong, share often and read often.

 

Aha! Thanks for answering!
I'm flatlining myself.
Also hve had a stressful time. All year in fact. And have also quit alcohol, working with quitting computergames, am almost there, sugar isn't s battle that goes well now but was strong in that area almost all summer. Taken away lots of dopaminsources and given the brain nothing at all. So that might be why.
Still have the sugar-vice I loose every day now.

 

I'd say even though I don't plan on quitting games, I don't think my brain views the activity as any dopamine at all. I've been doing Porn for so long that it had the strongest spikes and releases, and now that I've stopped my brain is still searching for it weeks later.

I believe a part of it knows I've stopped fully now and that's why I'm getting depressed, aside from my money problems and so forth. I think brain is angry at me. lol

Just be careful not to remove too much too fast and don't try to remove every dopamine source, unless I guess if it's an addiction. You want to make sure you don't turn something else into an addiction either. It's a hard balance of the two so just be on your toes, as the brain is searchin' for its fix.

 

checking in. It's going pretty well so far.

 

Day 136

 

Past 1/3 of this challenge. Life is not easy, but that is what makes it great. You got the reward for your discipline every night before you got in bed. It`s that tought that says : good job dude! you can do it tomorrow to. Now the 90 days milestone must be achieved, the 180 day warrior challange needs to be conqured and the 365 days milestone is the sign for me that I can stop counting the days, the chains broke long time ago, it`s time for freedom! I know you want it too, so stay strong and focused on your true goals!
