I don't think that many people will read recovery journal, so I will duplicate it here. I want to talk about benefits that I got, but didn't hear from others. I think it will be interesting and motivating for someone. 1) No more dreaming about "being a cool kid, millionaire, superhero, moviestar e.t.c". I'm in my 22 was always dreaming about unreal shit, while been sitting in bus or queues. Now I only think about "what should I do today, tomorrow and next". It sounds kinda stupid, but it's true for me 2) When I look at pretty girl, I may still want to have x with her, but it's the another feeling, that doesn't make me anxious anymore. 3) All conversation, especially with random people become much easier, but still have some brainfog while talking. 4) Got almost no stress about exams. 5) I bought e-book and swap youtube and social media on Chuck Palanik. 6) I always had some "after exercise anxiety" in gym, mb somehow my brain connected heart rate with stress, but now its mostly fine. 7) This forum is my longest social network activity during the day now. I really enjoy reading about other success and issues. I believe I can get more experienced in this not using porn lifestyle and help other people, and attract new fapstronauts from my friends circle. 8) I think, no matter how many wrong decisions I did in my life, the decision to join nofap-lifestyle atone them all.
Congratulation, I got 14 days. The exercise helped me alot in this days. I'm looking a better life. Keep strong friend, we can do it!!
Awesome job mate! I'm at day 41,and your first point made me realise I used to do the same! Used to dream about how much better my life would be if I was this or that, imagining myself in impressive situations and trying to be humble about it. I hadn't actually considered the change until I read your post, as I do way now mindful thinking. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences!
