So far so good ... I am exactly half way to my goal of No PMO and I must say that I'm very proud of myself on how far I've gotten . Although I want to hit my year goal that I've made for myself, I understand now that this is not just for the sake of that goal... I am making this a lifestyle . The life changes,positivity,perception on life itself, and other benefits that I've experienced on this journey so far are so incredible that all I can do is be humble and appreciative... so thankful that I've found this . Yes, I still have some rough days here and there but nothing compares to how I was feeling a couple of years ago... this is a blessing and a half for me . I would like to share some of the benefits I'm experiencing on NoFap so far : * Perception of life is more positive * More calmer ( I've always been calm but now I'm calmer within ) * No nightmares * More confidence (still progressing) * More energy * Not quick tempered * More heart ( Not giving up on things so easily ) * No depression * Focus increased * Increased patience towards humans I hope you guys gain some motivation from this and know that this is "real" ... holding in your seed, preserving your "life" is one of the keys to happiness. I am a firm believer in this because I am a witness. Some will experience the benefits more than others... some quicker than others but with the right mindset to change, you WILL gain something from NoFap . So here's to my road so far and here's to my road upcoming ! We can all win ! - Free
@Freeee Congratulations man! Very inspiring. I have a question - Did you ever find yourself having crossed paths with P subs during these past 6 months? And if so, what did you do to just get away? Were there times where you lingered on a while and then suddenly found it very hard to get rid of old thoughts for a while? (This hasn't happened to me but the thoughts have been SO strong) I'm soldiering on but damn its hard. I'd be grateful for an insight.
the key is being very forgiving of yourself. JUst treat everytime you view p-subs as a lesson. Say to yourself "you are forgiven" and learn from WHY you viewed the p-subs in the first place. No matter how many times you relapse with p-subs just forgive, and learn. Adapt.
Thanks man , appreciate it . and yes, I have crossed paths unknowingly with psubs and fantasies but I've trained myself to instantly block them out by thinking about the main purpose of me doing this... I think it's best when you have something to fight for so it can be a constant reminder on why your doing this in the first place, thus making it easier for you and your conscious . and as far as lingering thoughts, yes of course they're around... very hard to stop your mind from thinking about numerous things (at least for me ) especially "sex" but with p-subs and the rest that follows, not a chance... I wont allow it because like I said, I have purpose. everybody has a purpose... you just have to find it !
Thanks guys! I survived hell and back yesterday. No transgressions. Funnily enough I did exactly what you've written before reading it - instantly blocked them out. Shut down that train of thought. I'm certain that I really want this, now more than ever.
Wow that's great! Congrats! Thanks for the motivation! I have one question. As of now, are those image/videos still fresh/vivid in your mind? Just curious. Haha.
