Not New To NoFap But New To Taking It Seriously

Discussion in 'New to NoFap' started by Captain Carlos, Aug 27, 2019.

  1. Hello my name is Captain Carlos and I've just joined the forum for the first time ever.
    I've been doing nofap for about 3 years on and off, with the off moments being depressing binges. My highest streak is 10 days which some would say is not great in 3 years, but I'm aware I havent taken this seriously enough before.

    I always procrastinated and thought I'd break the addiction one day. But this time I change and by joining this forum I am one step closer to the change I desire.

    I've been a porn addict since I was 12 and I'm now 19. The realisation that nofap makes me feel incredible after a short 5 day streak has really made me curious about how I could potentially feel after 50 days, or 100 days.

    I'll be honest, I really enjoy my porn relapses whilst they are happening before the dreaded orgasm and official relapse resetting the streak. But the next day or so after makes me feel worthless and I feel a hole in my soul.

    Hopefully as I improve and my streaks gain in length, I can help as many other people as possible to escape their addictions and living life to it's limits, with no regrets down the line.

    Thanks for reading I'm looking forward to chatting to you in the future.
    Good Luck
    Captain Carlos

    I wish you success.

    Remember if 1000s of people share same anecdotal evidencd, there must be at least a little bit truth to that which needs to be investigated.

  4. Exactly and even we don't get the benefits that are described in all the success stories at least we've eliminated the negatives of PMO.

  5. Heyyy welcome to the NoFap forum : ) It's nice to see you here fighting the good fight alongside us!

    Here is just some advice:

    First and foremost please take a look at each section in the forum, there might be something(s) you may find of big help to you. Feel free to post there :+)

    Then secondly I just strongly advise you to be active on your profile(as there quite a few active people in the profile section). Please start by choosing an avatar and then make daily status posts to show you're active and needing support/encouragement. They've also got a neat little feature that shows freshly posted statuses for all users to see. People will find your profile and give you encouragement/support.

    People (are beginning to) love communicating in the profile section..(it should be and is )mostly spportive talk but it doesn't hurt to deviate from supportive talk. It would be great to have you join in and support others in the threads, profiles, and journal, we could always use your help and in return you shall receive some as well!

    Thirdly, You should also highly consider creating a public journal and write about your days in more depth for us members to follow along your journey and offer support to you by way of posting in your journal.

    Last but not least: Good luck on your journey here, make sure to really give it a try with all your heart!

    Welcome back to the Nofap community.
    The NO PMO journey is not easy but worth the effort.
    The community will support you.
    Maybe you want to make some commitment - not to the community but to yourself.
    Actually your counter is on 7 days. That's great!
    How do you think about a 30-days-streak?
    We made the habit and we can break the habit. It's your choice.
