OK so I'm in need of some input to stay sane. This is my first streak in NoFap and it's the longest I've went with PMO ever. I had blue balls and some urges until like day 20 but then everything went back to normal. I'm dealing with other mental issues but NoFap was just "easy" for me. ... Until a couple days ago. I mean I still don't know if it's because of NoFap which is why I'm posting this here. I have sexual anxiety and I sometimes think that my penis may not satisfy a woman completely. (It's 13-14 cm without pressing the ruler to fat pad) I don't have much sexual experience and the only vaginal intercourse I've had ended up with PIED and PE. But these days, whenever talk to a guy all I can think about is how he would be so much better at bed than I would. How his big member (which I haven't even seen) would satisfy a woman in a way that I can't. It's crazy but these thoughts take me to a bottomless pit. My body started twitching for real, like a crack addict in withdrawal. Am I going nuts for good this time or is this just withdrawal?
It's definitely withdrawal. If I were to try and tell you all the mental/physical symptoms I had (primarily strange anxieties) during my last long streak I could practically write an essay. You just need to give it time and it will pass. Recognize that your brain is trying to trick you into relapsing, so it brings forth ridiculous notions like "your penis isn't big enough to satisfy a woman." It's trying to get you to give up and go right back to fapping. Don't give in to it. Fight it and ignore the irrational thoughts. The only way out is through. And you've already got a solid 62 days behind you...
That sounds like withdrawal symptoms with OCD like intrusive thoughts. You need to try your best to accept what ever your mind says and go back to what your doing. With out giving it any attention. This video will explain it well
Well it almost succeeded as well. I almost relapsed while compulsively measuring my erection. I've actually dealt with OCD before and proud to say I've beaten it with the help of CBT and meds. But I forgot how intense the obsessions were and right now I'm actually on the verge of having a major depressive episode. I don't even think I could get it up to a woman if I wanted to at the moment.
Good, you know what your up against. If you can try to get out, or socialise call a freind. Meditation helps me a lot. I have OCD as well and depending on the flatline it will spike up. The worst thing you can do is isolated yourself alone with your mind.
I wish that I could help but it appears that you guys are not doing hardmode pmo I am doing a hardmode pmo so it's really hard to even give advice all I got to say is I got a hundred twenty five days it does get easier just remember it's a roller coaster sometimes you stay at the bottom to Long you like the ups and downs change the direction of your mind and physically change the direction of your body and the rest will follow God bless if you're interested hardmode pmo Last Man Standing forever challenge is one you can try out we got 33 guys there right now getting ready to jump up to 35 God bless https://www.nofap.com/forum/index.php?posts/1581098/
I'll try to be more active. It's just this one week I have to endure, after that my vocation starts and I'll always be with my friends. I am actually on the hard mode. The goal was abstaining from PM but there was no opportunity to have sex so it's been PMO.
Size isn't everything, not necessarily better. Different is different and it all depends on perspective right. Never feel like your not enough. And don't let this hold your thoughts and bring you down.
Well my logical brain knows this and even if it did matter, there's not much I can do about it. But I still worry and I feel pain because of this. It's not even small, it's average but a part of me can't make it's peace with that. I swear this feels like it's gonna kill me.
