    Hey Guys,

    Got to over 21days and accidentally triggered myself off.

    This were as far as I ever got. Kinda gutted. I'm going to start again on the 15th I think, half way through the month to keep a track on the date better. I were aiming for at least 30days so I'm kinda pissed, although I didn't feel any benefits with or without NoFap really in the end.:(

    Don't wait until the 15th. Set up a counter, it helps you to know always exactly for how long you've been in. Don't wait for it, start today, right now.

    Welcome! I'm glad you're here.

    I agree with Iborn...don't wait. If you know it's poison, why keep drinking it?

    Hey guys!

    Thanks for getting back to me.

    This is what I mean, I went and tried to start straight away but now my mind isn’t taking it seriously again. I think when somebody wants to quit, they have to make the choice themselves, and have to mean it, if that makes sense? Basically that’s how my mind is currently working. Lol.. or maybe I’m just talking s___!

    I’m currently self-reflecting on the differences, weighing the pros and cons. I don’t know if it’s in the mind but I’m sure I had more energy at work also. Also the outcome makes me think now, that it wasn’t worth giving in to anyway, although I didn’t necessarily give in.

    :)

    Hi brother, I definitely agree with what is mentioned by @Mr. Cold Turkey - its great that you have achieved 21 days (props for the effort!) however, once u break, pick yourself up again and restart. never too late to return. resilience!

    stay strong!

    Hi Mr Cold Turkey.

    Just to let you know, I didn't give in to porn at first. But I triggered off and the porn came afterwards, so I thought f___ it! Might as well carry on now I've f_____ up! I wasn't looking at porn and decided to give up; it wasn't like that at all. I finished work, came home and what I would call not handling yourself properly before I went to sleep. I recon my intentions were in the wrong place trying to get to sleep.

    Yes, numbers are b___s___! I understand what you are getting at. I suppose it's like listening to a drug addict saying they'll stop after another shot. Or an alcoholic saying they'll stop after another beer. But just to let you know I've restarted already. So let's see how it goes this time.

    21 days is quiet impressive. Shows you can do three weeks. Well done.

    We all have triggers, some we are aware of, some a little more subtle. Look at it this way - you now know another trigger to be aware of.

    I've been a user for over 3 decades and I know it's going to take time for any changes to show though - but knowing you can choose, and did so for 21 days is something to feel good about.

    We all fall down, it's the getting up a trying again that counts in all aspects of life. I am pretty sure I am going to slip up - hope you're around to give me a nudge and a few words to get back on the path again!

    You've shown you can do it - longer than me. When you're ready, you can do it again.

    Good luck.

    I hope that Chicken didn't go to waste!? Heck, we could start the NoFap cookery group - one thing we all like is food.

    I had to visit one of my triggers yesterday and managed to just about resist, but I've seen how strong the urge is. If not for company I think I'd have given in. It's all a lesson. anyhow - on to your next 21!
