New Here

Hi,

I’m ice9.

At 11 pm 10/2/2022 I’ll have made it to 1 full day of NoFap. This isn’t a huge achievement- but being here among fellow practitioners makes it feel significant.

I’d like to start a small accountability group sometime during this week- hopefully with dudes my age (~21 yr). Feel free to message me if you’re in pursuit of a day specific NoFap streak- like 5 or 30 days, and would like to be part of a small weekly or biweekly call on Discord.

My first goal is to reach 5 days without PMO. The next goal is 7 days and then 10. From there I’ll aim for two-week marks until 8 weeks, after which the goal will be 3 months.

My 8 week reward might be a pair of bluetooth headphones, or something else I’ve been wanting for a while.

By practicing NoFap- I believe I can become happier, more focused, gain better memory, and feel deeper desire for my girlfriend. I am hoping that abstinence from PMO will also allow me to perceive my fullest connection with God.

Good luck to everyone. I’ll be back tomorrow for another post.

 

Day 2 went well!

 

Day 3

I’m ill- feverish and tired. But no PMO! Day 4 isn’t far away.

 

Thank you flyswat, I appreciate that

 

Thank you JusteArthur- that helps me

 

Day 4 has been another sick one. The pain in my throat has dissipated and my fever are gone though- those are glad things.

After Day 5 I will begin a new post which is titled: Progress Journal {Daily Updates}. This will contain similar content but will not always harken to being ‘New Here’.

I felt lonely and hopeless earlier- not about PMO, but probably due to whatever sickness I have been battling for a little while now.

Praying helped- sleeping helped- after those things I felt enough strength to respond to text messages and that is a form of connection.

Because I journal my moods using an app called Daylio, I can see that this is the lowest, or among the lowest points emotionally, in the past 5 months.

If anyone is keen to gain perspective with regards to their own emotional wellbeing across time and what affects it- I recommend to them Daylio.

Be blessed brothers and sisters!

 

I am done with day 5. Now onto 7!
I think internet addiction is part of the reason my health suffers- it’s late every night early every morning. Gotta get a grip

 

Thank you bro

 

Thank you !
