    So im on day 30 now and this is the longest streak of nofap ive had in a while, ive never felt better physically in my life. I have strength, motivation, confidence, and most importantly im feeling like myself again. I havent felt like this in years. Its amazing and i didnt even expect this. Its like im feeling ok with being myself. The urges havent really been strong for the past few days but now they started coming out of nowhere again. I dont know what this is but it feels weird. I was listening to music, reading something online and out of nowhere in my head, popped up a question "What is even the point of doing nofap? Where do you think youre getting with this?" and i just started questioning if the whole stuff was even worth it. Luckily i thought about how a relapse would feel and i told myself yeah that surely aint better than this. I dont know why but in the last few days every time i thought of relapsing it just didnt attract me. Its like i think about it and it sounds like something thats really unpleasurable. Its like i have this sexual urge, but it isnt the urge to fap to porn. I guess this is what they call sexual energy. I feel like i have some kind of sexual energy, but i still dont want to have sex, because ejaculating would take the benefits away. I didnt have urges for the most part in the past few days so im hoping this stuff will also go away with the time. I trust myself that im not gonna fap, cuz i have a purpose why im doing nofap and im sure that relapsing will just make things worse and not better.
     
  2. Hey,
    You have half the solution, which you understand what is wrong. The second half is about figuring out the right way to act.

    I'll share something from my experience. I noticed that i don't fap when there are people around. I said to myself "I cheat when I know I won't get caught. How am I going to get out of this spiral if I can't compose myself at opportunities such as these?"

    Another experience I had is I never had a reason to go on Nofap except to see my streak. I didn't have a reason like better concentration, energy to dgo to work and work, lose weight.
