180 days no PMO

Just realized I had no PMO for 180 days. Couldn’t do it without nofap, thank you all!

Besides this tremendous encouragement from nofap, I think my daily meditation practice also helps. My urge is still strong, but I can more easily notice it when it surges, and carefully watch it fades away.

I haven’t noticed an obvious change in my body energy, but since I have a very intense and demanding job, I am glad I can survive my job and still hang in there. One thing worth of mentioning is that my focus is sharper, but again, this might coincide with meditation practice.
There are ups and downs in life. However, I can accept them in a more unbiased way. To me, having spent almost 2 years through the pandemic, this mind of peace is more rewarding than receiving a big raise. Again, maybe it’s a lesson I learned through COVID, but being abstinent certainly gives me a different perspective.

This journey is indeed one of the best things I’ve tried so far. Now I appreciate the virtue of being abstinent even more. I will let it lead, and hopefully will post here again in another 90 days!

 

I first watched porn when I was in college, but I’ve been doing M longer than that… so then my porn problem got worse, as my addiction to M. But I was able to gradually reduce the frequency in the last five years. Before I started this streak, my frequency of watching porn was about once a month, but I M more frequently.
I guess another reason my physical energy is not changing obviously is because of my demanding job. Long work hour leads to late sleep and lack of workout. Hopefully I can gradually turn this around as my body and mind are recovering.
