    Thank you brother. I slept in the hospital with her yesterday/today, i'm home now. She's feeling good, but it will take a month and a half, the complete recovery. It was a motorcycle accident, very stupid... I really need to sleep.
     
  7. I relapsed, resetting my M counter in a minute. I made 14 days, 2 weeks with no PMO. I feel like I have succeded but I still have a ways to go.

    My reason for being on this site is self control mostly. I never want to look at porn again and I think either no M or once a month. Honestly I mostly want to reduce the frequemcy I M which before this challenge was 2 times daily. My next goal is 21 days!

    I am going to work much harder this time. No phone in bed, sleep before everyone else and will be carefull to avoid triggers.

    I will continue this challenge with all of you! <3

    M is significantly less harmful than P, and especially PMO. I'm happy for you Kagamine! My counter got reset too(Sunday). I'm starting to see some payoff too, I'm beginning to feel a bit like a teenager again. Yay

    Anybody noticing any changes? I never had any ED or anything as far as I can tell, but I noticed morning wood hadn't lasted very long and I generally didn't get the random boners that plagued my adolescence, but I'm also older than I was then too. I also didn't care much about relationships with women, but that was also because anything you can end with a phone call for little to no reason isn't commitment and I'm looking for lifetime stuff, so I never paid attention to that either. I'm about two weeks in, PMO'd twice in the one day I gave up, so essentially nearly two weeks of (non-consecutive) NoFap, and while I'm not some sort of teenager with trigger boner the moment he sees two rocks together that vaguely look like boobs, I have noticed the following things:
    - Days in, you start thinking about women all the time, especially once you start getting frustrated
    - Yeah, more of morningwood and random boners and junk
    - Last night, I was in an ice cream place with plenty of women, and they were just....far more attractive than normal, a bit overwhelming, especially the one I was talking to.
    So in short, I'm definitely keeping this up even though I'm not motivated to write every single thought I've had. Just slow and steady, crawling out of a tunnel and I'll get there when I get there. This also makes me wonder if I don't/didn't have it worse than I previously thought? I can justify the fact that the women were more attractive than usual because of the fact that it was a bunch of local sororities coming together in good clothes for fun, but being overwhelmed isn't typical of me. Ugh. Guys, there's your que, try to nofap and get married early.
     
  11. I leant how to O without M using intense thought yesterday but did not achieve it until today..

    I was rather shocked when I pulled it off. I can now give up both M and P easily.

    I will now go no PMO for at least 21 days and if I feel the need to O at the end I can do that with no M.

    At leasf I can give 'it' a break without M around.

    I'm a little depressed that I did it but I am happy I didn't watch P or M. :D

    Did you just say that you meditated yourself to O?

  13. Meditation sounds too nice, I didn't do it with a clear mind. I thought myself off using intense fantasy scenarios.


    The ability to do this is rare but more common among females. I looked it up and took a few tips. First try I got close but couldn't get over the edge and the second try I got it.


    Last night I tried to see if I could do it twice but my secual drive limits me to one currently. One is insanely hard and takes me 10 -20 mimutes.
     
  14. Last night after my experimentation I relapsed with M as well afterward. It is too risky to think to O for me as it takes me quiet a while and it isn't easy.

    I will be limitung my new trick until at minimun after my goal.
     
  15. During my two week streak felt the following things:
    • More Sleep / Less Tired
    • Increased Sensitivity
    • More Frequent Morning Wood
    • Thought More About Women
    • Increased Productivity
    • Less Elastic Penis (Firmer)

    Yeah it would make sense as to why its uncommon but that's kinda how I got into this. I never used my hands whether I watched porn or fantasized. I feel like I'm somewhat of an outsider when it comes to M but not to porn or fantasies.

    OK, 11 days, still no P or P subs (just accidentally, and i turn my eyes over, it was just a glimpse, no big deal i guess). Still sad... But in the way :)

    You have done well. Be proud and know you can achieve your goals. I fell at 7 days but am now on day 9 again with no fa. Have been on holiday so out of contact for a while. Lots of urges especially with attractive women about but I've resisted so far. And I feel better for it....sex with my partner is so much improved.
