The 2019 X90 Hard Mode High Accountability Elimination Challenge

Discussion in 'Events & Challenges' started by Deleted Account, Dec 31, 2018.

  1. Hi everyone, checking in Day 42. I need think of a treat for myself if I make it until Day 45. Little but meaningful steps. A guy I know told me today that I'm exaggerating the harms of social media (because I told him I'm on social media detox and he keeps sending me various social media video links as a joke or smth) - I thought oh boy you don't know what you're getting into with all this social media but did not want to engage myself in these discussions. Next time he sends me a link I'll block him out. Hard mode means hard mode.
    Read well what you have written: "got a little sleep deprived which I know is always a dangerous situation for me" and "next time I'm in a situation like this I'm going to make sure to spend more time engaging with the nofap community". NoFap community is fine but I think sleep deprivation has to be dealt with by sleeping. So next time you're sleep deprived come here, check in and wish everyone good night. This will give you more benefits in the long run.

    Checking in for day 12, good to see everyone staying strong :emoji_metal:

    I do notice myself scanning more in gym/street, but this will fade the longer i'm abstinent.

    Checking in for Day 23/90, Starting off strong already worked out and studying in the library. This challenge really makes me want to keep up the streak and avoid urges. Keep it up everyone!
     
  4. Stay strong everyone, we've got your back! For me this scanning in the street has faded - I think I hit flatline as I'm very absent-minded, problems with falling asleep, low energy, depressed mood etc. But I know this will pass and this shows my progress.

    One query. Did anyone get blue balls yet? I have read that not all Fapstronauts get blue ball. How do you deal with it if you get it and by what time into NoFap can it generally set in? Also, do your balls appear a little blackish due to accumulated blood and lack of blood flow? Is it painful? Someone said it was. A bit scared. Want to avoid if possible.

    Checking in. Unfortunately this is not a check-in that I will get full points for.

    I relapsed. I did P and M. I think it was because of the coolidge effect after the O I had experienced with my gf 2 days ago.

    Nevertheless, I am not sad, as I only did M for two days in the last 15 days. This is still a big step for me, considering my past habits and addictions.

    Another positive aspect is that I totally got rid away from all the kinky / fetish / extreme / sissy / cuckold porn genres I used to look at. This is still a big step again. Only vanilla porn, gf pics and solo girls were the things I used this time.

    Each experience teaches something. I know this is not an easy road. I am trying to get the best and most positive outcomes from my failures and here I start my counter again.

    Ok i relapsed three days ago.:( I was pretty dissapointed at first but considering it was my first time doing NoFap, i think i made good progress. I definately saw the possibility and benefit of nofap. However, i realized that my initial goal of 120days was too much. So my new goal is 30days. Starting today.

    Checking in day 3/90, no PMO.

    I've been staying really busy this week so my strategy of limiting longer periods of time alone and in boredom is working well right now. This weekend will be more challenging though as I'll be going to a sick part of Friday and are likely hungover on Saturday. Hangover days are usually a big threat for me so I'm making plans to get out of my flat as soon as possible on Saturday so I don't end up alone in my room all day.

    I'm preparing for a major exam so I'll be focusing on my studies, which I notice I'm getting a nice grip now.

    That's okay. Just dissect what happened that have caused you to give in so that you'll be better equipped to handle it next time. 30days is an awesome goal. God bless. :)

    It would be harder to resist the urges if you're not sober. So I would suggest to not drink at all, or even party at that matter. It is said that an ounce of prevention is better than a ton of cure (I don't remember the exacts words. Hahaha)

    Congratulations on your progress. :) Yeah, you're right. It can be really hard sometimes (or all the time). But as long as we take failures as stepping stones for future success, well, and that's where many successes emerged from throughout history anyway, then we can really make the most out of them.
     
  14. Hey dude, great to have you back! Definatelly come here first before looking a p. Read some success stories to get motivation. Read some people who are having alot of trouble to appreciate where we've come from and could possibly go. There's so much content here which sets your mind straight.
     
  15. I've never heard of that but we're going to keep graphic descriptions out of the group for the benefit of everyone. Thanks for understanding.

  16. hey great to have you back, I was just about to write you off. You're doing great with what you're learning and having a great attitude about it. Rarely do we ever just stop and not slip a few times (or 100) while figuring out what works best for us.

    I try to stress to people that they should be measuring averages over time instead of streaks. We're looking for trends that show us moving in the right direction.

    It's good to set realistic goals too (like you are). Some people say don't even set 30 days but just set a goal for today, then do it again tomorrow. In 30 days you'll have accomplished 30-one days.

    Take care and good luck.

  17. Cool man, great to see the insight. I have the same experience after experiencing O with gf. It's very challenging and disappointing too.

    It's great that it was vanilla and not fetish. But be careful because they can come back fast on a long relapse.

    You're doing great though, that's a great outlook on things. Keep up the great work!

  18. Great job fleurette, you should definately celebrate the win on day 45. Rewards are great for us mentally, it reinforces our psyche to do the right things. Every little bit helps. Every positive move, every positive thought, ever positive intention helps us on our journey.

    Hi,
    No, it is a real, serious medical issue for all men who are going through NoFap as blueB occurs in all men who are sexually starved and frustrated. Sorry did not mean it to be graphic but it is a real medical condition. Occurs when blood and accumulated semen build up makes your testis painful, like extreme pain. It can happen due to such tension not being relieved and is a condition all Frapstonauts must be made aware of. That's my understanding of the issue. Just that not all non-fappers suffer from it and if we are doing this journey, we should be aware of it and also how to deal with it. Blue B is part of NoFap vocabulary like flat line etc. Nothing graphic here.

    Cheerio :)
