I've been going PMO for 47 days now and I have to say... this feels great. Don't get me wrong, I still have my urges every now and then, but then, I either change my thought process or I look up something motivational to show me what I'd lose if I did it.
What would I lose? These superpowers. I didn't know what they would entail, but I was open to any benefit I could get. I believe it was after about 1.5/2 weeks when I started to notice something... my motivation to do something and STICK with it has come back.
I'm 24 now (just learned how to masturbate two years ago. I know... long story), and back in the day, I used to be on top of everything. I was known for being productive. Then I discovered P... slowly over time, my motivation to do anything productive/worthwhile started to wane. I wanted everything quick and easy. I didn't want to try at anything. All the business ventures/creative opportunities started to fall flat because I didn't have any motivation to put in serious effort. My life started to consist of P, weed, and video games.
I realized as time progressed, I needed to quit. However, we all know how that goes. It wasn't until I started to mess around with women again and I saw that I didn't care to do anything with them. I knew I needed a change. I went on a streak of 23 days and then relapsed again. That's when I came over to this group and y'all helped provide me with the motivation to stay strong. Every time I felt like relapsing, I'd come over here and see that I'm not alone - everyone is struggling with the same thing, but everyone has each other's back... also I'd hit that panic button a couple times
Either way, after about a couple weeks, that's when I started to notice this new sense of life come back to me. The feeling of wanting to accomplish my goals. Instead of worrying about how hard it will be, I would focus on creating a plan and tackling the first step. This has, by far, been one of my most productive streaks that I've had in my life. Like I said earlier, I still get urges and blurry mental images (much better than the clear ones at the start), however, I know if I focus on those thoughts, things can go downhill really quickly. I know there's a huge debate around the superpowers achieved by NoFap, however, one superpower I can attest to with the utmost certainty, is the desire to do something with your life.
I just wanted to share the experience on my journey so far with y'all because I don't believe I would've got this far without you. Thank you.
