No benefits

I would focus on continued success - especially on how PMO was impacting your relationships with others. The self improvement impact varies alot by person - it may take longer to see a change in your case. Or the the change may be gradual and hard to perceive. Don't let that discourage you - your ability to interact in meaningful ways with others - specifically romantically - is not a small thing.

 

It's because your brain is wired to watch and like porn for such a long period. After you gave it up, the porn pathways in your brain is still there. You have conditioned yourself to watch so much porn that daily life activities doesn't feel as enjoyable as watching porn is. NOFAP alone doesn't give you a lot of benefits. The benefit comes with you no longer using porn to escape your life problems. Instead, you are developing positive habits to replace porn. NOFAP alone does give you some benefits to start with. Is that you will get more energy to do things. More energy leads to more confidence to achieve your goals. You will definitely have more energy now because you are not wasting your semen. Semen is the lifeforce energy of every man. Because it can create a intelligence human being. That's why wasting it can cause such a huge damage to you as a whole. You are pretty much experiencing flatline. I'm not good at explaining what it is. But there are so many YouTube videos talk about it. Search "Nofap flatline" and "Nofap Withdrawal Symptoms"

 

My experience is that it's not a magical thing, don't hope for your life to turn upside down with no effort.
I would say the 2 biggest benefits are :
1. Time : You have more time to do things since you don't spend X hours watching P each day.
2. Freedom : After a few months the urges are mostly gone, you do not feel this pressure, this daily craving, this irresistible desire to look at P. To me it feels like a weight has been lifted.

The rest of the benefits come from how you invest your newly gained time (1). It's not magic, it's up to you.

give it at least 90 days before you draw conclusions. That’s when most people have stabilised.
