    My biggest issue is difficulties sleeping. That being said I think I'm sleeping better or reaching a new norm. I have recently started to date may ex and let me tell you she has never looked so good, damn, I got the most wicked set of blue balls from hell after edging from being around her. She eventually had to beat me off with a stick. ha But deep down inside I think she liked me advancing on her. I have not done that since, and that was maybe a few days into nofap. I will have to say the best benefit of nofap for me would have to be that I'm finding a much wider variety of women attractive, they don't have to be a porn star or ten years younger. I believe nofap, has increased my confidence and self esteem. I feel less guilty and disappointed. I have this higher sense of awareness about sexual energy, that quite frankly can be overwhelming. I really want to have sex, however, I am walking around with a loaded gun here! I have to say I have almost stopped fantasizing, and when I do its easy for me to stop. I only wish I would have done this sooner, I truly believe it would have saved many relationships from ending.

    Stay strong my friends.

  3. Hey HealthySexLife,
    Welcome to the NoFap community!
    If you haven't already, take a look at this information on rebooting. I've found it helpful in knowing what to expect.
    Feel free to message me or anyone else here if you have questions or want to talk.
    Best of luck during your reboot.
    Again, Welcome!

  5. Hey @HealthySexLife ,

    I'm just a normal ordinary member. No moderator super powers and no special insite. I share my ESH (Experience, Strength and Hope) of what works for me.

    Just another warm welcome and a heart felt hello. This community has helped me so much.

    What worked for me was "working" it. It took hard work for me to complete a hard reboot (No pmo) for 120 days, then move into a Sex Positive mode.

    First, reading the literature published by NoFap itself along with reading journals.

    Then, doing the work. Writing in my journal and replying to introductions and other's journals.

    Finally, but not least, getting involved with the fellowship. I found it on the forums, but also in people's profiles. The forums tend to be longer posts, where the profiles tend to be more "conversational".

    That is what has worked for me. I like to remind myself that this community was here waiting for me with the lights on when I arrived. Now, I have to do my best to be there when someone comes to the community.

    Then, watch this video:

    PS -

    One of the ways I got involved with the fellowship was by reading some really great journals. Reading other's stories with their victories and even defeats is a big part of my program.

    I've included journals from all age groups, spiritual members, religious members, secular members, male and female. You should find journals that help. If not, look around, there are hundreds of others from which to choose. When I say "it works if you work it", reading journals is part of that work.

    Once you open a journal, click "Watch Thread" in the upper right of the page to get alerts when new posts are made. Here are just a few:
