210 DAYS / 7 MONTHS HARD MODE REPORT !!!!

I have been waiting for some time to write this report, and here it is finally. If you haven't checked my previous two reports, on 90 and 160 days, and if you are interested, here they are :

It's my birthday today, together with the 7 months achievement. I turn 22.

So far i think this has been my biggest accomplishment in trying to quit PMO, i have been trying to quit it for 3 and a half years, from 2012, and always failed, i made it to 1,2,3 or 4 months sometimes, i didn't even knew about the Nofap community, but i tried so hard to do it, and failed again and again, until i found this here, in June this year, and joined it, when i was already on a 40 days streak. In my previous attempts i have made it to 1,2,3 or 4 months sometimes, and ended up relapsing, so this time, when i joined the comunity i made sure to make such a name, that a relapse would never ever occur again. So this is for now.

From the 160 days on, these are the things that i observed.

- Improved ability to concentrate, and better mental performances, the brain fog is gone, i don't have it no more, and i am glad about it, i feel much more intelligent, and i can produce thoughts much easier, i can be creative, and talk better.

- I can pay more attention to some details, and notice some things in depth more than before.

- More confidence.

- Feeling more vital and energetic

- It seems like i have gained some muscle mass and i have more strength, although i don't work out, i exercise rarely. I feel more masculine.

- More beard growth, unlike hair unfortunately...

-Seems like my hair is receding even more (but very slowly), although i haven't relapsed for so long, i don't know why is that, if someone can tell me, i would appreciate it. No regrowth yet.

- There was a period of time around days 175 - 185, WHEN I HAD HUUUUGEE MAGNETISM AND ATTRACTED MANY GIRLS' ATTENTION, AND THEY LOOKED AT ME AND TALKED TO ME, SOME OF THEM SEEMED INTERESTED, AND I WAS BEHAVING VERY COOL, NO PROBLEM AT ALL IN CONVERSING WITH THEM. I also made new acquaintances with many girls, and not only girls, but people in general, and i was very social.

- BUT THEN, UNFORTUNATELY, THE RETURN OF THE WET DREAMS CAME, AND IT HIT ME HARD !!! On day 185, after 45 days without one, and then on day 193, THAT ONE WAS THE VERY NASTY, it was a big spill, and i felt very bad after it, then they started getting even more frequent, days 200, 203, 204 On day 206 - a dry dream... Felt like a CRAP through these days.
And they seemed to take away some of the benefits i had, and after a wet dream i felt like a relapse: felt nervous around people, and females, could look at them in the eyes, but for short time, and when i did, and they established eye contact, i moved my sight away from them. Felt a little stressed and distressed, also felt like i am not on a 7 month streak, but like i am on 30 days, and my mind/brain started playing me around and convincing me that a relapse isn't that bad, i had very strong urges in the last two weeks, and i had NASTY FLASHBACKS, and memories were projecting in my head, which i thought i have forgotten a long time ago, but i got reminded of them, and i was very weak early in the morning when i woke up, and was very horny after a WD, the chaser effect kicked in, i was feeling addicted again, although there was no relapse, every wet dream i had in the period 193-204 almost felt like a relapse, took away my energy, made me lazy, anxious, and intimidated my streak awfully.I was afraid of those thoughts i had, they lead me towards the relapse, but i didn't relapse after all, i stood strong, didn't give in in no way, but i couldnt use some of the tactics for coping with urges. I am glad i coped with them all in the end. Going back and ruining the progress is not an option.
This morning i started having sexual dreams, but i became aware early enough and i woke up without a WD. I don't think so frequent WDs are a normal thing, since i had them happening at 45 days, and recently got more frequent. Is this normal for a rebooting?


- Now i am feeling better, and i feel some of my powers or benefits from nofap have returned, i have sensible presence again, i noticed this especially today, since girls were looking at me again, and i could look at them too, and wasn't feeling stressed or tensed, and i am again very social. Few days ago an absolutely unknown girl gave me her number, just because i rendered her a favor of giving her my phone to have a conversation, because her battery was depleted. She wrote her name in the register and said, call me sometimes to go and drink a coffee at some cafe. I was like : WHAT HAPPENED RIGHT NOW ??? I thought "nofap surely works".


- One thing i must say, is that the more time you pass on NoFap, doesnt guarantee that it will be easier. Even on 200 days, i still had urges and huge temptations.


- Last of all, i want to make a special mentioning of one friend of mine, thanks to who i managed to maintain my streak and stayed motivated to go ahead even more. This one guy is **2may2015** . He is one day behind me, and always motivates me to keep the distance of one day, he will make 7 months tomorrow. Thank you, man !!! You helped me very much, i hope i have helped you too ! ;D
I can't believe i have reached 7 months, although i have serious urges, i am motivated to go ahead and progress in nofap, and Never Return There ! (just had to use this phrase as i always do ) I am sorry if the post is too long, i just felt like i had to explain these things. If you have any questions, ask me in the comments, i will try to answer everyone.

Keep yourselves strong on nofap, and don't relapse whatever happens, go hard to achieve success, it's difficult, but it's worth it. Peace !

This thread is posted on Reddit/Nofap with the same text ... ;D

Yeah !!! Well done !!! Rejoice for this accomplishment !!! I expect to see your report.

By the way, in the post i mentioned that it was my birthday on 26th, yet i didn't see anyone wish me happy birthday ... neither here, nor on reddit ... It was super cool to have the date of the birthday and the 7 month date matching ...
:C :C :C :C But it's all cool ...

 

AHAHAHAH THANK YOU, YOU ARE THE FIRST ONE !!! Yeah !

 

Well, i am so glad that it helped you so much !!! Hold on, you have a pretty big number of days behind you, dont give them up for 3-5 seconds of pleasure and stupid false satisfaction...
