I thought that maybe 90 days is too much for me so I set myself a 15 days target, but that too failed. so Now what I'll do is try to outdo my last nofap streak. The latest one I had was of 38 hours, so my goal is to control till atleast 38 hours are over but then push as much as I can to set myself a next target. Will keep you updated. PEACE.
Something that works for me is exhausting myself throughout the day, so by the end of it I'm just ready to go to bed. I think a big part of people relapsing at night is because they have built up energy they didn't utilize throughout the day. Especially since your energy is supposed to increase with NoFap. Exercise is huge on this journey my dude. You can't really just do NoFap you have to change other aspects of your life or else NoFap is very hard. I used to play video games a lot and they actually were a trigger for me because a lot of games have females in skimpy clothes and shit. So I sold my PC and started limiting my gaming heavily. Now I just play mobile games or games on my switch lite. Stuff that lets me take gaming on the go so I'm usually around other people or in public when playing. Social media was also a trigger so I deleted most of my accounts, except snapchat which I only use for messaging people now. I don't look at the stories, especially now in the summer with girls posting bikini pics and shit on the regular. I try to spend more free time doing productive stuff now like reading, drawing, writing, exercising, martial arts, meditation, breathing exercises, walks in nature, primal scream therapy, cold showers, ice baths, etc. all that self development stuff is massive on NoFap, really helps turn your life around. My main issue right now is my diet. That's hard for me to change. Anyway, hope that helps brobro. Keep up the good work congrats on 12 hours keep that streak up!
Hey thanks bro for all those suggestions, I do try to exhaust myself but I just cannot bring myself to do the things I've planned. I've kinda always been like that. from today i've started rope skipping till fatigue, I think this will help me. I did a bit of meditation too today and ended up feeling all those built up emotions. Thank you v much for replying to my thread kind sir. When I feel that I'm being held responsible, I tend to push myself even further. I've successfully completed 24 hours. but since I still have a lot of energy left, this night is going to be tough. but I'll do some maths and shit to tire out my brain.
The worst thing for me about relapsing is that all the fantasy I had are coming back to me. Its like opening a door when there is a tornado outside, once opened its really tough to close it down again.
Not going through with plans is actually a sign of depression. You may be experiencing that my friend. You should try joining up with a group here or maybe with personal friends so you can have some accountability partners that you can connect with and that can help push you towards your goals. Going at it alone is always harder than going through it with people that understand and can help.
Mate...I understand you completely, I got 1 month free but then I reboot again. Something that helps it's praying/meditation, body exercises. Also put a chart with the 30 days challenge, so you can mark it everyday. See your progress will reconfort you. Take cold showers, that helped my will. If you fail in the way, don't let the depression or sadness take control. Stay calm and remember you are in a process, it's not easy but brave. I wish you the best.
Heyyy so I was successful in controlling myself for 38 hours, Actually I was on nofap for 45 hours. I feel a bit sense of accomplishment and am ready to beat this 45 hour target too. Let's hope I'll make it
Cut the internet connection. You seems to be pretty extreme case if you can not abstain a few hours. Just...cut the internet or, if you are not job dependent on laptop...just put it in a closet or remove it's HDD.
