5 months , but no results :/

Hello.
How many hours a day you use computer?
If you use it for part time, not really that problem.
If it is fulltime, yes it is.
You can add something hobbies outside of computer. Build your confidence start with small step. Say hello to some people you walk pass by them. Smile can do too.

Hope that help. I am new to here. 5 months NoFap is great confidence in yourself because you care about yourself.

 

Hii mate. Nofap is not a solution to social problems. Its a way of life. The two things that nofap gives you are:
1. Time, which you used to waste watching porn
2. Slight burst of confidence.
Nofap alone does not cute any social issues. To cure social anxieties what you have to do is, use that time to face people. Its a hit and trial method but its very successful. What you do is, get out of your house and look at a girl directly in her eyes. Trust me on this one. You may have the worst stare but what is the worst that could happen? Shw will feel awkward and will walk away. It may be a disaster but you have just broken the ice. Try to look into the eyes of some more girls. Slowely you will feel more and more comfortable. You have got to trust me mate and gather enoughenough courage. Also there is no loss for you. Nofap itself will not help you mate. But again dont go back to fapping coz that will surely make it worse. Let me know of your progress. Goodluck mate

 

After a few tries you can smile and say hi as said by jamastro.

 

I always believe NoFap could provide you a better body and mind, but it's not a solution for every problem.

Try to make some eye contact with your mom while having simple conversation 1st. Keep calm. It's just the same with nervousness doing a presentation or public speaking: 1st time I even felt my body is shivering and I was sweating hard, anchored my eyes on the small piece of paper note and afraid of looking at my audience. Sounds like a worst presentation ever. Allowing yourself to produce garbage is a part of the process in producing your finest work. After several attempts I can even make jokes and interact with my audience, and I'm really enjoy of doing it.

I fold my hands and kept my head down all the time when my sister's friends was visiting my house last time. I was shy and over-introvert. Now I dare to say hi to another person I don't know much because it would be the 1st step to make a new friend. All we need is to take the courageous or even bold 1st step, allowing and forgiving yourself when you made some mistakes. It's okay to be wrong or make mistakes; just don't over-do it. Good luck and keep us updated.

 

If you really wanna improve your social skills, shoot me a pm, I used to be an awkward shy video game addict in high school but turned my social life around completely since college so I know a lot about this subject. I'll still summarize some points:

- Join a toastmasters club or any other public speaking club type thing, or join improv classes

- If you're in College/Uni, join as many clubs as possible that interest you

- Learn about what "pickup" is and see if that's something you're interested in. If you decide to do it, it will improve your social life like nothing else will, and it will improve extremely fast, you will see results literally instantly

- If you're able to, get a job in retail/customer service where you have to talk to lots of customers every day. This will help greatly, especially with holding eye contact with people

 

Nofap is not just about not masturbate, it is a new lifestyle. though you are not fapping anymore, you maybe using the internet or video games as substitutes to fapping, this will change nothing. But be confident! At least you have done 5 months! this is something you should be proud of! Mine longest streak was just 14 days, you've done better than me! Try to feel the energy that you saved from not fapping, use that energy to discover your potential, your talent! And go be good at something!

 

Hey man,

first off: you're doing great that you've stopped looking porn and MO. Well done! But don't expect this to be your magic pill, it is merely a part of the whole picture. I assume this issue is also one with women. I don't want to give you a 4-page summary of ideas and hypotheses, as that would not help you at all. An author Mark Manson has written a great book on your social presentation and connect with people, and especially with women. It is called 'Models'. I have read it too years ago, and it definitely helped me.

Hopefully it can help you too: http://www.amazon.com/Models-Attrac...mark manson&qid=1465314174&ref_=sr_1_1&sr=8-1

 

I can relate to your situation mate. I am from a similar community. Try to be safe and just look up at them. 1 or 2 sec and look elsewhere. Also what you can do is practise online. Talk to strangers online and it will boost your confidence too. Chat can be equally helpful too. Hope you will have a good progress. Share with us here. Goodluck mate

 

i think that it is from low tetosterone you get from NoFap because abstaining from ejaculation for too long your tetosterone starts to decrease the major increases in tetosterone its 7 days after ejaculating and 3 months after ejaculating ,too much abstain lowers tetosterone levels so i advise you to get a girl but not only for sex but for combining yourself with another person mentally and physically.

 

Try looking at only one eye
