    Day 15! Slowly but surely making progress. Yesterday was great, I spent the day mostly outdoors which really helps and then had a nice dinner with my boyfriend. I'm so lucky that he's so supportive of my reboot.

    I love this way of thinking. I do think we get so hung up on the idea that this is difficult when in reality maybe it would be easier if we told ourselves a different story. If I just let go of the PMO spiral entirely and focused my brainpower on positive things that I enjoy, maybe it would just feel like a breeze. I also like what you said about keep going for years, as this is my hope. I'm not in this for a quick fix. I want to leave PMO behind forever.

    Tonight at 10pm will reach 64 days.

    Feeling confident, strong and less anxiety. Enjoying the benefits.

    On a date on Thursday the girl was saying things trying to make me blush, I was pretty non reactive. In the end, she was the one who ended up blushing.

    Good luck all!

    Day 5. Just peacing this through. Will power is reserved for the enemy. For the hostile bogey. For the threat. For odds and obstacles. Travails and tribulations.

    But here, PMO is me. PMO is I. I am not my enemy. I don't wish to be own enemy. I am me, something far more intimate than a pure friend. I am me.

    So, I just had a deep, affectionate conversation with my own self. Requesting it to understand my plight. Our plight. Trying to make bare how much time I have lost PMOing. We have lost PMOing. Hence, if I lose, we lose.

    But had I decided to "will power" against PMO. My own subconscious would assume I am its enemy and attack back with vengeance and fury. Then, I would lose. And I would win. But We will have surely been defeated.

    So, instead of will I choose affectionate, benevolent conversation. Because the enemy only ever becomes the enemy if you call it the enemy. What if I call it my friend? What if I cease to outcast and ghettosize my own self, by discriminating and deriding and making it the object of harsh, denigrating invective -- as I often have, by abusing the PMO side of me over and over again -- and instead invite that part of my self into my home, share a warm meal, and even hand over the keys to my home?

    Then everything just simply dissolves. The armour plates are dropped. And so are the gauntlets. Even the spears. Behind the helmets of one army is my face. Behind the helmets of the other army....is my face.

    One may never be able to defeat one's self. It is an inherent, mathematical contradiction. But may assuredly be able to make peace with one's self.

    Discard will power, embrace the saffron robe, and the warm, disarming smile.

    Day 68

    It's been the same for quite some time now.. I've been bored but mentally stable. I rarely have anxiety but I've had some for a few days in a row. I think it's just stress. I need to work out today whether I feel like it or not.
    The stress is caused by things I know that are about to happen in the future. It's just a matter of time. One of the reasons I think Nofap/Semen retention is good because it makes you more determined, more focused, more mentally stable, and it boosts your immune system. But I guess you can't avoid stress in life alltogather.

    I've had less allergic reactions this spring than the ones before. There are high pollen counts this year. My allergy came back about six years ago. I haven't had any extreme reactions but it's been enough to annoy me. The reactions that I had could have been related to a slighty weakened immunesystem caused by PMO . It could be a whole series of reasons. I stopped eating anything with gluten about 3 years ago and ever since then things has also improved.

    I hope that I will feel much better if I keep lifting weights. I will do it today. I said it, so I have to do it.

    I had a dream tonight that I watched images online. But I wasn't aroused or interested. Then I walked away from the compuer and I prepared a hot drink then I woke up. Strangley the dream played out in an old apartment I grew up in to when I was 13. It's like the subconscious is connecting PMO with that time. I felt younger, like 12-13. I think this is part of the healing process.

    I made a list of foods to boost your testosterone levels.

    Nofap (more enegery, no waste of energy, leads to --> higher testosterone)
    + Healthy testosterone boosting foods
    + Working Out
    = Less body fat and much more effective muscle building.

    Testosterone Boosting Foods - Look for the organic ones, and grow some by your self if you can!

    Remember: Don't take too many supplements. Too much is not better. Keep a balance, do your research and find what you need.

    Ginger Root
    multiple benefits, including helping against nausea

    Garlic
    High in zink and nitric oxide for blood flow

    Pumpkin Seeds
    High in zink

    Eggs (organic ones have a stronger, more colorful, "warmer yellow" yolk.. the non-organic are more pale in color )
    (.. and, the organic ones contain more Omega-3)
    (.. and no cholesterol is not harmful and you can eat as many eggs as you want to. That's what I do. And if you don't agree I can promise 3 eggs every morning won't hurt you. Not even close. Well unless you have some type of allergy.)

    Iodine / Kelp Many people are lacking iodine in their diet.

    Magnesium
    (there are multiple "types" of magnesium in tablet form.. the better one is easy to absorb and the bad ones give you the sh*ts or makes you sweat, or both. Or you can eat foods rich in magnesium. The problem is that we're almost always lacking magnesium. Especially if we stress. It's very effective against stress because when we stress the body is drained of minerals when handling the stress, especially magnesium. I've used Great Earth Super Magnesium for a long time and I have no problems what so ever. And my stomach is pretty sensitive. That's just a tip.)

    Vitamin D3 (If you take more magnesium your body will need more vitamin D, and vice versa, keep it balanced, and you will be balanced)

    Vitamin C (There are so many foods containing vitamin C but Rosehip when fresh contains 60 times more than citrus fruits!
    I use organic Rosehip Powder and sometimes also organic Nettle Powder which is super healthy. You can pick them up, dry them and make your own powder. Probably the cheapest most natural multi-vitamin you can get for free! It's so much more than Vitamin C)

    Beef / Red Meat (Packed with nutrients but avoid processed and canned meat.. the more fresh and organic the better! Quality all depends on where in the world you live. Be careful and do some research. Make sure you know where it comes from.

    Protein (Like protein powder.. maybe not the best on the list but if you can find good clean products it's good for testosterone and building muscle. Make sure to avoid anything with soy! No soylecitin. Look for those with sunflower lecitin. I don't know if there's anything harmful about sunflower lecitin but it's way better than soy. Stay away from soy - and tofu!

    Maca (Black Maca or -powder are very nutricious and good for sperm health and production. Just use with caution because it's very concentrated. Avoid the high concentrated powders like the "gelatinized maca powders" because they are processed and lack nutrients and it's too easy to overdose.)

    Beepollen (Varying nutricious value because it all depends on where in the world it comes from. Also be careful because some people can be allergic. I have no problem with it and take some every now and then. It contains lots of good stuff, almost everything your body needs. Just be aware that because of this the s-drive will get higher. But over time the body gets more used to it. A small amount is better than too much. The high nutricious value of course will balance your mood when you feel down.)

    Water Melon
    (Helps with blood flow, from what I've heard. And who doesn't like water melon? Can help to heal PIED. You need good bloodflow in the lower parts.
    Workouts with leg training helps the most.)

    Pomegranates
    (Cointains healthy stuff like Zink, it's in the seeds to be more specific. Also said to help with bloodflow and help cure ED.)

    Bilberries (I've heard it's good for healthy eyes, better night vision and testosterone production. They also say there's no scientific evidence bla bla bla, but that's what they always say.)

    Chinese Herb: He Shou Wu (Fo-Ti Teng) Cooked in Black Beans - it's a powder
    I'm not sure if all products from china are bad. But one thing for sure. I've seen this herb work extremely well when I gave it to an extremely stressed out person I know that was laying in bed for days and couldn't get up. I mixed it in a glass of juice combined with beepollen and he got energy from absolutely nowhere. Like, a miracle. This herb is quite commonly used in traditional chinese medicine I think. I am by no means any expert in this but it's been said that; when men gets older they take this to prevent hair loss and to turn grey hair into darker hair again, partly beacause of the high content of Zink. Zink is vital for testosterone production and for sexual function. I have tried this herb some years ago.

    Remember: Eating healthy foods and herbs is not enough. Most important is to exersise. As written in another thread I quote
    "... 30% treatment, 70% maintenance, if you are unaware of how to maintain a healthy lifestyle, the effectiveness of medical treatment will be severely limited. ..." https://forum.nofap.com/index.php?threads/6-years-clean-rebooting-as-the-best-remedy.135983/

    Day 3 today. Woke up pretty late today, but didn't waste any time. Kept social media away until before lunch. Urges still strong, always thinking about going back to porn videos and video games, feel strong urges to relapse, but I come back to these forums. Urges occur when I sit in front of the computer alone, maybe because it gives me a choice or option to relapse. I'm learning to live with the urges, and I think urges are going to get stronger. But I am stronger. Feeling a little more energetic than yesterday. I'll make it through 90 days. Please support me. Likes and replies kind of motivate me.

    Going to buy some dark chocolate, going to reward myself everyday. Nofap = reward with a piece of chocolate. Relapse = no chocolate.

    Sometimes, a strong urge occurs, I simply watch it come and go, and then I feel more energetic than before.

    Day 16. Feeling kind of blegh today. I hung out with friends yesterday which was nice but I drank too much and didn't sleep well, so I skipped the gym this morning, which always makes me feel kind of down.

    But I'm just going to learn from it and do better next time. No point beating myself up. And there is zero way that I'm going to PMO to "make myself feel better," since I know it would just make me feel worse. Tonight I'll get to bed early and get back to the gym tomorrow.
