Just feeling freaking awesome!!

Great stuff Ben, you're doing awesome! I was and am in the same boat as you. House to myself, boredom = P. I'm on seventh day myself and getting a few urges but it's controllable. Getting tired/energetic days at random. Big love to ya mate, best of luck and congrats. NoFap Feb crew in the house.

Yep, nothing kills cravings better than lurking around on these forums.

EDIT: Just downloaded the companion app. This is brilliant.

 

I really dig the Badges, it's cool to know that I'm nearly one of only 218 people in the world to reach day 10, even though that number is totally inaccurate unless you quadruple the numbers since not everyone uses the app.

But it's cool

 

Oh hey, this looks cool. Add me as an 'NF companion'? My sharing code is 4474a5

I congratulate you on 7 days,
however I do want to give a reality check. After 7 or so days it is very common among pmo addicts, myself included, to experience a temporary honeymoon phase, where you feel a lot better than normal. If you notice these benefits fade after a while and you begin to feel worse don't be discouraged. Its all part of the recovery process.

Feel free to ask me questions,

I wish you a successful recovery,
Mateo

 

I'm just on day 7 now and I feel great

Hi Ben… You seem to be doing really well…

I hope you are still in a great place fighting PMO

These quotes helped me tremendously through this journey of nofap and also through the journey of life. All the best!

 

Hey Ben, yeah I did relapse yesterday. I've been dealing with such incredibly low motivation that I've been getting super depressed. I can never seem to get around to doing my art. It was such a low point that I MO'd, and the chaser effect got me and I PMO'd.

12 days of NoFap uncovered the depression I've been dealing with underneath for 15 years and never admitted to myself or anyone. I'm happy about that and I'm joining some groups and talking to a lot of people about it. I'm certain I'll stay addicted to P if I don't address this core self esteem issue, so facing that is my focus at the moment.

Though it's hard not to feel shame about relapsing.

 

See reboot as a process rather than just success or failure. It's about learning from every relapse and avoiding repeating same mistakes again in future. Do you write a journal everyday? Do you workout/run even if you don't feel like doing it? Do you use a porn blocker? Do you have a plan about what to do when things get bad and start getting out of control? Pondering upon these things can help one make some good progress. Good luck!
