IT'S BEEN A WEEK & I'M AFRAID.

It depends on what type of posts you follow. The success stories and journals of people who seem really sincere have helped me a great deal. Best wishes.

 

I think coming on the forums is good, as it reinforces why you're doing this.

 

This. Staying active on the forum has been really helpful for me. You've got this

 

Great observation @fhdnazeer . We have an old saying about focusing on the solution rather than the problem. What I feed myself is important mentally and spiritually.

I find that a lot of stuff on here is drivel. Panicking people with lots of wild questions or inflammatory statements. Well, maybe that’s what they need right now. But getting caught up in that stuff is not for me. I need focus and discipline. Find some people that have something you want. Time, insight, peace of mind. Happiness even???

This is a wonderful site but just like life, I don’t want to hang out with everyone! But the great thing about this place is the opportunity to give. My recovery depends on me supporting and helping others. That’s what I do here. I’m not here asking if I’m going to be ok. I’m on here telling other people that they are going to make it! And that helps me. Because in order to receive, I must give.

You will find a balance that works for you! Just keep showing up

 

I visit this this forum nearly every day for the last 8 months. It's been tremendous help on my recovery path. I've learned so much from people here. It's totally worth the invested time. I answer one or two posts a day to people who I think I might be able to help a little, but I don't answer provocative posts anymore. I find it kind of useless and waste of time. People who question NoFap most usually disappear from this forum soon anyway. Either they're just trolling, don't have a problem or hadn't recognized they have a problem yet.
