I am new to Nofap, and was wondering if fapping messes with your sleep. I'm a 23 year old male, retired army vet who sleeps 12-14 hours a day. My pmo was about once or twice a week sometimes multiple times that day though. When I was in the army I was using pmo everyday, sometimes multiple times each day and I was tired and lethargic nearly everyday. I'm wondering if my years of p abuse has caused my sleep to become messed up, and If so has anyone experienced this? Does this go away with time? I appreciate all the support you guys could give me on this matter, thanks!
First, thank you for your service to our country! Yes, it can mess with sleep. How long has it been since you have stopped PMO? The amount of time it takes to recover varies with the individual. Getting exercise and eating well helps.
Thank you! I stopped pmo 6 days ago now and I honestly haven't been exercising regularly or eating very healthily, so that may be some contributing factors.
Yeah, put those three together and it can definitely mess up sleep. If you haven't yet, look at www.yourbrainpnporn.com. It has a lot of information about what we're dealing with in rewiring our brain. Given teh way our brain has been wired we will end up the eay we have ended up. And, we can rewire it - it just takes diligence.
