    I started nofap to focus on exams as I was spending too much time in watching porn.
    But I am realising that after starting nofap, I lost my focus. I am spendig hours doing nothing. Before, I start studying just after ejaculation.
    should I leave?:(
     
  2. What do you think? You lose focus on a reboot because all that dopamine crashes and you lose the ability to focus or enjoy things until your receptors heal.

  4. Definitely, and if you need to switch the environment up also do that, I always found studying in a park under a shaded tree helped me a lot.

  7. Also let me add some other things, so focus can actually be trained through various things, but also destroyed by different things. One thing I highly recommend avoiding is multi tasking, your brain is only really meant to do one task at a time, by doing to many things at once you teach your brain to be more multi functional instead of focused on the single task at hand, start multi tasking less, complete one goal at a time and do one thing at a time, I have a bad habit of playing multiple games at once or playing a game while listening to a youtube video in the background, this is really bad behavior and should be avoided. I will list some ways to increase focus and some things to avoid.
    1. get the right amount of sleep 7-8 hours
    2. eat healthier
    3. avoid loud and busy environments
    4. read a book without any distractions
    5. do not multi task
    6. take breaks
    7. spend time in nature
    8. exercise
    9. listen to relaxing music that you can focus to

    Excellent advice stated above. Dont smoke weed and replace with meditation. It is a difficult hurdle at first but works very well when practiced consistently. Good luck!

  10. No bro, you are doing it wrong. We aren't here to stop looking at porn. We are here to transform our lives into something truly remarkable. One of the cornerstones of that transformation is the recognition that porn is a buffer which blots out the pains of rejection and not living up to our potential. Turn towards that pain, let it become the driving force of your life, and the porn will drop away on its own. Change your routine. What used to be beat off and then study can become go the gym and then study. Don't make bettering yourself harder than it needs to be. Here's my list:

    1) Exercise a lot, I am talking five days a week or so
    2) Practice meditation, a little goes a long way if done everyday
    3) Start mastering a hobby, for me its guitar
    4) Join a social thing, for me its volleyball - light, fun, and I meet new people
    5) Stay on top of your job which for you sounds like school
    6) Keep trying different things until you start to converge on things you really like to do.

    All it takes is regular effort. Persistence and patience. Devotion and dedication. If I can do it so can you.

    Here R my two cents even if i lack sense

    Reduce screen time perhaps instead of logging on YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, Twitter, IG, etc. and falling down a gosh darn fun & giggles rabbit hole not even talking about relapsing on them or whatever you dump the most time on online and meditate instead for five, ten, or fifteen minutes then think about if you need to get on those platforms truly
