Advice from someone with 1000+ days in

Thank you so much. These words are deep, and they really help a lot. You are amazing

 

all respects to you my brother

 

congrats bro......Did u get any benefit in social akwardness???.. I feel very self concious when i meet any one .. Will Nofap help it ?

 

Am i i right here to say, long periods of disinterest in sex and abstention results in dropped testesterone levels?

I am hypothesizing, becuaese testesterone can be secreted only through activation of sexual glands, and losing interest in sex in itself kind of shuts down this role of the sex glands, hence muted testesterone levels. if you are to look at those llamas abd buddhist celibates, can you picture them as someone having testesterone flowing in their bodies? Ofcourse they are masters of celibacy, but for me its now, whats the point of keeping celibacy long if it doesn't reward you with testesterone.


What would your answer be to this?
I would appreciate your answer. Thank you!

 

You could help a lot if you answered truthfully, not just me, but a whole lot people who will eventually come across what i did.

I had a long streak end today and i would like to not argue with you.

It means almost same, i know, you know, we all know.

 

The only time he/she can be anything but celibate while on recovery is if he masturbates, either to porn or without.

 

I agree wholeheartedly with this post. I will restate your points in ways that make a lot of sense to me:

1 - Find motivation through SOMETHING and love yourself.

2 - Internet bad.

3 - Healthy coping strategies - workout is king. Engage yourself with fun hobbies.

4 - Make NoFap your whole life - your friends start talking about pornstars or hot celebrities? Leave the conversation. Do this in every area of your life. Don't look at women jogging on the sidewalk, etc.

5 - Have patience and live day by day, do not pay too much attention to the days because they mean nothing, focus on how you dealing with your addiction and try to improve slowly everyday in everything you can to keep you away from your undesired habits. - don't need to change this

6 - Have friends, but have good friends. Don't hang around with coomers who talk about porn or sex all the time. It is very hard to do this alone.

7 - Find support of some kind, whether it is the forum, an AP, or a friend IRL.

8 - The most important don't give up, you might fall a lot of times but everyone does. Have patience and do not lay your head down when you relapse, get back up stronger and forget the past. - this is perfect, but I highlight that shaming yourself will not make you better

 

Did you have pied? Monk mode the whole time? Did you start having O? If you had pied when did it fix? Ive gone on multiple 150 day monk mode streaks only being interrupted with long periods of O from sex. Still have pied pretty bad and im gonna go a year of monk mode maybe more if thats what it takes.

 

If you have ED than you have ED, I would consult a doctor

 

Congrats for this amazing feat and thanks for the advice.

 

were u on monk mode???
