My NoFap story Hello everyone, welcome to my long ass post fapstranauts This is my first post for NoFap. Today on Aug 4,2020 i completed 429 days of NoFap and i am really proud of it with just 3 or 4 relapses. I am 31 year old and i started fapping and watching porn when i was sixteen. I was a smart and very motivated person before i started nofap. Fapping just drowned me really deep down into the ocean , I didn’t even realize that i was drowning. Everything i did because i have to, nothing movtivated me . I was dragging in my life with no real goals and i never understood why. There were even girls who wanted to hang out with me but i was really interested in the girls onscreen. No one in my family or friends gave me any warning about what i started is going to have serious consequences in my life . Not even in school i got any education about how precious is SEMEN in a man’s life. Its the life source of all Human race which should not be wasted so easily. But i was just fapping and watching porn all the time. I used to fap 5 or 6 times a week consistently for 14 years until i found NoFap. I was just sitting in my car one day after work and thinking whats going on with my life I don’t have any control over my life and my dreams are slowly fading away and I can’t do anything. Suddenly Universe blessed me with a NoFap video made by Sean while i was watching Youtube( For some reason that video is deleted now). I just thought to watch it and My God that video literally changed my life. I never heard of NoFap before, so i started searching about NoFap and found a lot of success stories. I started doing NoFap that same day and at the same time i started watching other NoFap videos and reading NoFap success stories for my motivation for NoFap . I knew its gonna be really hard for a fapper like me to start NoFap so i was feeding my subconscious mind about the benefits of NoFap. I started NoFap on June 2, 2019 and below is the timeline the things that happened in my life which gave me more motivation to do NoFap : Started 06/02/19 06/11/19 Awesome talking and listening to my dad , it felt like this is the first time i am understanding him of what he is saying because i had really really serious Brain Fog. Second amazing thing that happened same day , i was talking to my neighbour outside my house and suddenly i heard some screams in a van and that van stopped and the driver reversed the van and told me that my girls were screaming because they think you are really cute. My mind was blowwwnnnn. Many people told me Handsome in my life but nothing can be compared to this. 06/14/19 i work in a gas station and i see this girl almost everyday but on this date she asked me are you married and asked me to go out for dinner few days later. 06/22/19 My energy level going up super high, need to do something Digestive system getting a lot better 06/28/19 I made a manly decision that i am really proud of now and my family members are surprised by it. They are really happy and proud. This energy is making my mind more clear and my emotions really stronger. I don’t think I would have made this decision before nofap. A girl who i know for a long time and a customer at my work gave me a hug for no reason. 07/13/19 My friend told me do u put mascara in your eyes , because i think they look more alive now 07/16/19 From last few days my brain is telling me to eat better food, less cravings for junk food 07/20/19 From last few days i am feeling a lot more confident, something inside me wants me to talk bluntly For some reason i listen to bad ass songs instead of sad songs which i used to listen. Maybe NoFap gave me hope for my bright future and positive vibes 08/23/19 My aunt said how u got so smart in 1 and 1/2 year because i seen her after 1 1/2 year, i think it was because my mind is sharper and no brain fog anymore. 09/01/19 Made a really manly decision, which i am very proud of because someone said something really wrong about my family which they should not have done that. I felt fearless , after NoFap I don’t take shit from no one. 09/03/19 Alright this is a big one for me, some girls gave their numbers to me without me asking them but this time THE MOST BEAUTIFUL girl in my city gave me her number on a napkin. I really was surprised by it , I can’t even express this in words right now. 10/31/19 From last few days i am feeling complete, I don’t need anyone to fill up my life . It feels so calm and awesome As you have seen the things that happened to me on all these dates , so my benefits for NoFap are : 1. Clear thinking 2. Brain fog gone 3. Motivation to move forward and be successful in life 4. Energy levels gone up 5. Female attraction is awesome 6. Better posture 7. Emotionally strong 8. Peaceful and calm mind because I don’t think about porn and sex all the time 9. Better skin and eyes 10. Hopefullness of a better life 11. From “can i do it“ to “ i will do it” attitude I still get urges once or twice a month but i feel a lot better now. I think nofap is one of the best things ever happened to me. I feel like a totally different person, now i am incharge of my life and emotions rather than controlled by my emotions and pixels on screen. I think we can all do nofap , its hard but when we get the benefits of nofap it’s totally worth it. The things that helped me achieve that long streak are NoFap videos and NoFap success stories on the nofap website. The link below was one of the 2 videos i watched everyday for first 90 days to recover from fapping . It really made me understand what nofap really is but unfortunately the first video is deleted by youtube , that video was so awesome that i want to personally meet the guy who made it and thank him for changing my life forever. He was sent by this universe for me , thanks a lot Sean. The second thing that helped me was i wrote down in my notes why i am doing NoFap and read it everyday , for example Why i am doing this? 1. Motivation to find a real girl, have real orgasm. 2. So i can increase my focus on important things. 3. To be successful in life, don’t want to be stuck at the same place. 4. Because i am really heart broken that I can’t get my dreams without that energy and focus 5. So i can stay manly all my life 6. So i can live a fulfilling life 7. Because i want to save my most precious energy for my dreams 8. So that i can learn multiple orgasms I really hope that this post can help my fellow fapstraunts who want to live a fulfilling and happy life and get out of this BLACKHOLE of PMO ( Porn Maturbation Orgasm ) . Thanks a lot
Wow man, this is amazing! You evolved a lot during this time and holy sh*t, ~430 days, this is such a long streak, few people manage to stay like this for a long time. Your clearly are a good example for each of us, trying to beat this bad addiction. Thanks for sharing all of this and good luck!
The problem is you don't always get the benefits you expect to get, or at the same level you expect to get them. Then you start wondering why you're even going through this. But if you really think about it, what quitting PMO REALLY gives you is the ability to take your life to your own hands and not letting them slip by idely. I think that doing PMO is the synonymous for saying "I give a shit about my life", and indeed whenever I relapsed I stopped care about my life and vise versa. Anyway congradulations for the freaking streak and the video is awesome!
Thanks Brother i wrote this post to help my fellow men and women who have been weakened by PMO cycles and denied to live upto their true potential.
Thanks brother , I didn’t believe i can do it but when I completed 90 days i was soooo happy I can’t even express right now. After 90 days it became like a habit and it was easy after that.
Good story, pretty similar to mine. The one thing I am not experiencing so much is the female attraction. I talk to girls more often than before. Like really, when I have the opportunity, I go to them and talk. If I ask them their number, they give it to me. But I have just not experienced the screams and the attention signals girls give to you. I am still 17 yo, maybe too young to experience that much female attraction. I don't think I am ugly, I would say I am in the middle. Where do you think the problem is? If you think there is. Thanks, Un abbraccio
Brother I am on my 21 day and I don't know I have depressed felling every alternate day for the last two week. Pls anyone help. Sorry for the bad english ,it is not my mother tongue
I understand you brother that female attraction is one major reason we start NoFap, but for me it was many other reasons along with female attraction but it was not the main reason. Like right now I don’t want to attract any female but i want to pursue my goals and dreams. After so many days on NoFap i realised doing things that make you happy is better than pursuing women. I feel really complete and calm in myself. And i think if you are complete and positive you will attract same kind of people.
Great reading. I hit day 90 after 2½ of trying today. Im struggling with anxiety and fear for a few weeks now, i felt great for a while. I feel emotionelly weak and im not happy. But maybe more time is needed. I think also i focus to much on Nofap, my mind is very occupied by it. I need to live my life. But it's a process to deal with this.
I think you should be proud of yourself that you completed 21 days its a big achievement, i started nofap after 14 years of non stop masturbation 5 To 6 days a week , i understand what you feeling right now. First 30 days are the hardest because you don’t dumb your feelings anymore with masturbation. In my opinion its good too because it makes you emotionally pretty strong and you want to change your life. The best thing to conquer depression is pushups , everytime you get urges or depression just do pushups as many as you can do . You will feel relaxed, pushups helped me a lot .
Bro what you did is pretty damn awesome, 90 days is a huge mark especially nowadays when we are living in a world where almost everything is Highly sexualized like instagram, music videos, movies, porn. I think you should give yourself a treat , buy something you like or go out and eat celebrate your 90 day success. Try not to stress too much, even if you relapse, next streak is a lot easier than the first one . Like for me I don’t even count my days anymore.
Amazing story. Thanks for sharing an being an inspiration. Glad you are able to see that there is more to life than women and sex and that true happiness comes from within. You can do anything with your life at this point.
Thanks, man, your words are precious. I am 17 yo, never had any sexual experience or any relationship with girls, expect friendship. Maybe they don't find me so attractive. But just understand how would you feel if you were my age, with pretty high hormones, and abstaining from sexual reliefs since November. That's pretty hard! Months ago I was only focusing on myself, but now, with summer, I just want to talk with girls and have fun with them. I know I shouldn't focus on them, but mainly on myself. But I just can't control myself. Anyway, real-life girls are much better than digital ones, I suppose...
I am at day 43 when I have not watched porn or had any fake masturbation or by fantasies,but yes I have had sex with a girl atleast like 15 times which has led to ejaculation. I want to know does it still count.
real life girls are definitely better than the pixels, like you said you are doing nofap from last 8 months thats a pretty good accomplishment. Slowly and steadily you will overcome this addiction, it almost ruined my life but i am awake now.
Basically nofap is no PMO( porn masturbation orgasm) so you days as far as NoFap still counts. Semen retention is a different topic tho which you can search online. It has a lot of benefits of its own because semen is the life source of a man.
Thank you! Yes it is a challenge. A lot of social media has to go, what TV you can watch and so on. You really starting to notice this when your giving it up that i didnt before. Yes, i need to relax more but still stay vigilant. However my mindset is that relapse is off the table, that behaviour belongs to the past. I try to vizualise that. And the counting has allways stressed me out so now i dont focus on it as much. Yes your right, i thought about getting myself a treat
