Angry rant against the rebooting community!

I'm really glad you're having the chance to write down your feeling but...take it easy, c'mon

 

I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it. (Voltaire)

You know...you could let some of us down. I mean, there's no scientific support about the fact that people not PMOing succeed in winning social anxiety, depression, mental and physical stress. But I'm one of the hundreds who are actually experiencing these changes. Call it healing, rewire, auto-suggestion but one should be proud to say: "yes, it's happening! yes, I'm changing! thanks to NOFAP COMMUNITY". Had it not existed maybe I wouldn't never have known about how to change my weird habits.

and then...be alert! maybe in 71 days you'll be a supehero!

 

Oh

 

I actually agree about the superpower delusion. I graduated summa cum laude (no pun intended) from college and graduate school - with PMO the whole way - no brain fog, no ill focus, and it amazingly helped with my sleep - it was wonderful. And I never had out-of-the-ordinary trouble getting through interviews and acquiring jobs in my career. I have been quite fulfilled in these areas. I chose recovery now (and before with failures) for purely moral and spiritual reasons and for greater fulfillment and happiness in not having this addiction the rest of my life. I have only been able to pursue recovery competently now since I never had a support group before (my missing piece, among many other important pieces) - and that, perhaps, was a harder-to-find thing throughout history - but there were spiritual guides and supporters back then too - but we have so much more information about recovery now, the bar of shame is lowered and we can meet with other addicts like us, but many of our recovery tools recapitulate ancient wisdom even (we didn't invent them) - modern man has ignored ancient wisdom (often embedded in religion), only to have to discover the same problems and fixes all over again, like the moron that modern man can be.

Of course, P develops with technology. I'm sure it started with caveman drawings, developed with clay sculptures, and later paintings, went through the printing press era, the 19th-century Sears-like catalogue (ha!), then the video era, then the internet age, and if they ever invent the holodeck as described on Star Trek, what do you imagine will be its first big application- sex, of course. So, this is all to say that PMO has been around since man first MO'd - and even without technology, there was always the real thing available - sex slaves, prostitutes, brothels, ritual sex temples, ancient theatre, postings and sketches in public latrines (ancient and modern), etc., throughout history. So, let's not imagine that this is solely a 21st-century plague - the great men of history had to deal with this, too, as well as the plague of "objectifying" their sex interests.

 

That impressive lecture you have made was the result of 19 days of abstinence from the PMO. If you had continued your old ways you probably would have wanked a couple of times on a sunday afternoon.And laying around like a dumb head looser you would think -whats wrong with me?Sure some ppl just exaggerates their experince here but that is done purely for motivational purpose.So, instead of barking here go do some useful stuff but not before thanking these ppl.

 

Dude relax..nofao has no benefit other than the absence of negative issues caused by fapping.
The people who report superpowers report them because they've made other changes. When comparing before and after it seems like they've been granted these powers, when they were earnt and used nofap as a catalyst

There's a lot of fake it until you make it happening, people are affirming for themselves

 

TC may be laying it on a little thick, but I can see he is well intentioned. I see many people just dumping all their problems on PMO, believing NoFap to be a miracle cure-all. They need to know that NoFap is only one step.
The boosts in mood, energy, focus, discipline, etc... are very powerful and motivational, but still need to be used productively in order to be life changing in the end.

 

I gained confidence when i was fapping I thought to myself "why should I think what someone else says and i should do / say what i want when i want".

However eradicating habits can restore you....(no not super power) ie

1) a person who smokes feels fine but when they give up this addiction or habit he can run and breathe more easily...

2) an alcoholic who gives up drinking thinks with a clear head and can lead a more focused life....


To be honest I won't be able to answer about perfect life before porn as i started at 12/13 and am 27. I done it for 15 years - throughout my entire adult and teen life. Am sure am not the only one who did this.

I suppose this is why people see drastic changes as 1) they eradicated a habit which they had throughout their entire adult life and by 2) eradicating it they see "new" (which they missed out on) changes

 

Look man I get what your saying, I don't agree that nofap will turn anyone into an alpha male or female - it hasn't for me but just relax there's no reason to get so upset. And just because there isn't as much sexual objectification as there was back then, it doesn't mean there isn't any now. As for people resetting 1000 times, I kind of agree but not everyone is fortunate enough to get it right on their first try on nofap like I did because they may not know how to handle their urges well enough.

 

I'll agree with you on that. It's very misleading when you reaf the success stories it seems as if quittig pmo is a he cause not the catalyst. That pissee me off a bit, I was gullible. Now I know it's more about you're habits than anything else
