New to NoFap but so far it is easy

    Hello everyone,

    I am 31 years old and completely new to NoFap. I knew what NoFap is for awhile but never really gotten into it because I never believed in it. Just a quick story for anyone with time to waste:

    I am a normal guy had long relationships each a couple of years, sexually active (when I had girlfriends) but even then I was abusing porn. Not the terrible amount just enough to get me by say 2 times a week sometimes even 1. Thing is I have extremely high libido and often I am ridiculed by my friends who have girlfriends or wifes nowadays that I am a sex deprived man that doesn't have anybody to do it with currently. I am not wierd around women, nor I feel shy or anything like that. I am just... Good... Like good in nature at times which I completely understand is off putting to a woman (which I am battling to erase for awhile) so you can understand where I am going with this. Due to rejections from girls in the past I wanted to date or sleep with I turned to porn and the instant gratification. Occassionally I did one night stands with girls I met at the bar but I always felt unsatisfied and dirty. To me sex with a loved one beats one night stands any day. So while searching for the woman I would like to fall for I was doing porn. Until a week ago...
    Today I officially did full 7 days of NoFap.

    On the first day I decided to quit porn I just realized I am constantly feeling ashamed when I do it and subconciously projecting this to people I talk with. Low energy and the lots as you know. But so far it is extremely easy for me. I don't know why but on the first day I just told myself (in full voice mind you) that from this day forward I am renouncing porn, I want to fix my life, get into shape and become a better man. Since that day I haven't watched porn, I haven't had even the slightest urge to do it. I sometimes see naked women or some porn materials popping on my phone if a friend sends something but I just look it at and it is as if I desensitized myself just by that saying during the first day. I feel nothing. No urges to fap. I got scared that something went wrong and I can't feel anything but at least the morning wood is telling me all is well for now. My brain cleared, no fog, I keep eye contact with girls and I don't even care if they stare back but not in a creepy way, I talk more with strangers and I don't even care how they will react to my words. My aggression is getting higher though and I almost got into a fight with a stranger the other day but I guess that was also because he was a douche.

    Anyways if you read it so far thank you. I am happy to share my progress with you guys and hopefully I won't get any wierd cravings as time goes by but so far I am doing great. It's like my mind knows what is like if I turn back, I've been there and I know how awesome those few seconds of orgasm feel like, but I've never seen what it's like on the other side and I intend to find out. Maybe that's why I am so excited to continue and have 0 urges so far.

    Thank you and good luck to everyone!

    Congrats for making this decision and for making 7 days first try! :)

    Keep in mind that you shouldn't beat yourself up, if you break that promise from your day 0. It's a journey and failing is also a chance to grow and for getting to know yourself better.

    Keep on it!
