Day 3. Had a hard time sleeping last night as I woke up with chills and couldn't go back to sleep. Also woke up with a headache. I think these things are related to PMO withdrawal.
Day. 49 Sorry I did’nt Write yesterday because I got sick, so i was all day sleeping. Today a feel a little bit better and no PMO of course hehehe
Btw still keeping up with this challenge and doing daily check-ins. It's a really great idea to make challenges like this on NoFap with all that ranking and stuff.
Yo guys, I just reset again, on day 29, 100% self voluntarily & consciously M'ed to a horny chat I had with my gf. The stress I had around the Covid I got is gone, but other things happened. Since I was tense & horny af and couldn't meet my gf for a few days in a row, I figured it's worth it for me to M to her photos or chats. Did not peek into porn, so I'm feeling good about that. What I learned about myself is that I'm a super sexual being, and I use sex and O to kill stress and relax. I feel very fine now after I M'd as I'm fully aware why it happened and I chose to do so. Not addicted to porn or M, just using it as a tool when shit gets a liiitle rough and I'm not able to have sex with my gf, and also, not happening often or anything. I don't advise anyone to do that, but I felt I'll be better after all. Stay safe guys, and strong!
It's an awesome tool to help you in tough times. What I found even more rewarding and empowering is supporting fellow brothers with your experience and insights. We are all a family here and you're very welcome brother.
Day 0 Filthy orc I don’t deserve the title of Elf-King. After 342 days clean I viewed some porn. It was stupid and I should have known better. At least the strength I have built through my NoFap journey helped me to resist touching my dick, so no M or O. At least something positive from a bad experience. I will now restart my journey. Thanks for your support.
i can totally relate. dopamine is exausted when doing pmo, and when we´re addicts is even more heavely depleted. dopamine is very important in social connections, it gives us a sense of peace, therefore confidence, therefore carisma = magnetic to girls. it´s said than in nofap everybody can get the girl of their dreams. and it´s true, the testimonys are everywere. i´m married so i´m not going into that department, but i can tell that in terms of security and confidence it really feels we can get any girl that we focus on. but in the first weeks? forget it, i was so nervous i couldn´t even talk straight with man, let alone woman . so yeah, it´s pretty clear that you were below your regular performance. still you had the courage to go through it, so i salute you don´t worry bro, just keep the sobriety running and you would be so confident that the girls would be like "shit, he´s so above my league, this is going to be a though one" and you´ll be like "Bond, James Bond"
@RiseToGreatness I relapsed again, but I shall not give up. I'll stay away from the forum for a while, but I'm still in the challenge. I'll be back stronger.
Day 21, Feeling the school grind burn, but very happy with the state of my first paper! Keeping my head in the game as I move forward with my academic and no PMO goals! Running is going to be on the backburner until I am caught up (or probably just when I am finished) so setting an early intention of going for a run shortly after finals. Dont want the lazies to settle in hahaha. Best to everyone and keep strong!
