Day 49/90! Past the halfway point! I'm finding that early rising and plenty of activity each day makes me just too tired to be tempted to PMO at the end of the day. It's great actually.
Has anyone tried the 66 day habit installer formula given in the 5 am club? 66 days nofap until it becomes your habit? What happens after 66 days?
Day 1/90 Sleeping was hard will make sure to keep door open from now Will shut off phone every night at 10pm Need to delete bad apps.
Made it through day 4, very satisfying, in spite of constant urges and erections. Day 5 today. Wish me luck. I'm turned on all the time, thinking about relapsing, but at the same time, working with much more energy. The horny energy in me, can be channelized into productive work.
When you feel you can't control your urge anymore, go outside, take a deep breath, and then call a person you love, or your friend, your mentor, your guide, anybody. Have a normal conversation, don't talk about porn and masturbation if you don't want to. Have a friendly chat for some time. Feels great, and the urge is gone. Even after that, if the urge still persists, go ahead and relapse. But I'm sure the urge won't persist. Try it.
Lie down on a yoga mat, place a heavy book on your stomach, between your navel and chest region, hands above your head, breath normally for 15 minutes. Breathing becomes deeper, the quality of your thoughts changes, and you feel fresher, helps during nofap. Think about any productive activity that makes you satisfied, involve yourself in that activity, so involved that you loose track of time. No time for porn.
Day 70 Yesterday things happened that made me just explode in anger. Rarely happens at all. If it wasn't for my 70 days I wouldn't been able to sleep and recover from the stress that it caused. I got a good night's sleep. I'm just gonna keep going and going. There's no point of turning back now. I can't turn back now. And even better, I don't want to turn back to where I was. There is no point of PMO. Day by day the remaining illusions in my life are starting to fall like a house of cards. The PMO cycle is a perfect example of a House of Cards. It looks strong when it's actually a weak contruction held up by our own imagination.
Day 18. Honestly yesterday was harder than I wanted it to be. I never seriously considered cheating but the urges were STRONG. Last night I was so horny I woke up a couple of times with a pesky boner and had to get up to pee to get it to go away. But the gym absolutely helps and I'm definitely going again today. My current mindset is that I'm not giving in for anything in the world, so bring it on!
That's awesome. You can only get stronger from this mindset, not weaker! I have morning wood every night now. Didn't happen before. But I don't care. I only care about getting stronger physically and mentally, and also enjoying other things in life because life is so much more than just S or MO. It's about having hobbies, passions, and to be creative etc.
