pleasure

I'm an 40 yr old, who has been watching porn since I was a teenager. When I first watched a DVD I bought from a sex shop in London, I never knew that it would change my life as an adult forever. I recently ended an eight-year relationship with the love of my life. I struggled to feel anything...

Love can turn into hate, pleasure becomes suffering. Happiness in sadness. All these are extreme states of mind, you can’t keep any of them forever. Suffering comes from getting attached to these shallow feelings and states of mind. I find the middle path a stoic approach sort to speak more...

Today i'm the happiest person on the planet ! I did a 15 day streak of no tobacco :emoji_grin:(cigarettes and snuff), i've started tobacco and porn addiction 8 years ago. The reason why i'm posting this on NoFap is I've found that the advice and information here is pretty useful and helpful...

Today I am on 199th day of Nofap Monkmode/Hardmode (NoP,NoM,Nosex, Nopeeking, Noedging).And 211 day of not using porn. So I want to share this thing of mine and I will be honest with you fully. I was on 36th day after my last wet dream today. I was feeling this huge amount of sexual energy in me . So...

Not sure if this is the right subforum, but hopefully someone will read this. I'm 21M, single, virgin. Just started nofap, have had some successes (25 day streak 1st attempt) and failures (multiple relapses afterward) but I'm still committed to it. Not an incel - had many opportunities to have...

i don't know the exact number of days. The urge is strong and real. I'm trying a lot of mindful meditation according to which its a "sensation" and it will pass. The objective is to look at the "Sensation" without any feeling of like/dislike. Its easy but in practice, its quite a task. I...

I'm 37 days in am I'm glad to say I've been able to craft a beautiful relationship with a girl I legitimately love within these last few days. Five minutes of pleasure are not worth it. I'm moving towards the life of my dreams and am only 37 days in. I don't even want sex... I'm looking for real...

Most of the people (including business people, students, people who seeking for spirituality, who`s in psychedelics) every must have stumbled accross the one of the complex question in Philosophy, which 'What is an Ego?'. Yes i know Ego is the primary reason for ones destructive behaviours and...

We had wasted, and been wasting lots and lots of our energy for short-term and nonsense stuff like watching youtube, social media.. What if we preserve all those energy, and use it for the thing you really loved and aspired to?, im investing all of my energy in reading newer and unknown...

I've just failed after a 15 day streak, that was the longest i had done yet. But my main problem was that i needed to stay updated on porn itself because somewhere in my mind i though that porn was making me more woke and making a part of my personality. This is the last pmo i'm hoping to do...

Continuing on from my first philosophical submission to this forum, I have begun to read through the works of Lucius Annaeus Seneca. I will read ten to twenty letters each day, and submit relevant and thought-provoking lines from the tutor to Nero below so that they too might offer insight on...

I think the key to a succesful reboot is to change the idea of what pleasure/reward is. Let me explain my thinking, bear with me. I think ultimately, what is required of us is to balance the short-term/long-term reward system. We have to focus much more on the long term rewards. This is not as...

Hello friends! Recently, I decided to dedicate all my life to the pursuit and accumulation of knowledge, so in consequence I had to eliminate all sources of pleasure from my life, including sex, porn and masturbation. It all worked well for a time, but for some reason I convinced myself that I...

Hi, I am starting a new list ot find all the tools to fight the bad side of P related to Sexual Performance, how to feel something, how to forget about P-dreams, how to listen to the body, how to feel more and get the sensibility of pleasure back! At the beginning of recovery, we know it is...
