    Hey fellow Fapstronauts,
    You guys may know me know me from the journal New Year New Me, but today after relapsing, I have decided to spend this entire day studying every single resource relating towards NoFap and creating this condensed guide today.
    Understand the Enemy
    Porn is addicting once you try it for one day you suddenly can't stop
    This is known as the Coolidge effect in where porn makes our brains believe that we are reproducing.
    This results in you wanting more, from watching straight porn you can suddenly find yourself on the gay porn section.
    This has actually been proven, as a fellow Fapstronaut became attracted to homosexual things.
    Negative Consequences of Porn+Masturbation
    Porn can result in things known as PIED,which means only porn can turn you on
    Also can result in ED, Erectile Dysfunction
    Then back pain, fatigue, and negatively affecting your brain growth.
    Identify The Triggers
    You must realize what is resulting in you masturbating, it may be watching youtube, being bored, and looking at social media ("sexual images")
    What I recommend to use for blocking these sexual images -> K9(Free) and FocusMe(Paid)
    Also another example that may happen to many of you is the fact that you want to masturbate before you go to sleep, the best remedy is to just take a cold shower.
    But the thing about all these filters is the fact that it can't block everything, resulting in you having to develop willpower, which will not only help you in NoFap but your entire life.
    Quick Distractions
    Hold your Breath
    Cold Showers
    My Favorite: Rubber Band, in where you have a rubber band and you snap it whenever you have a trigger.
    The Truth
    It is not going to be easy, if it were easy everyone would do it. You are going to have to push throughout, the tough days where fatigue gets you, and the days where all you want to do is fap.
    Benefits
    Confidence, Motivation, Increase in Creativity, Social Benefits, Motivation
    Escapism
    The thing is when you stop fapping and porn, you must get your dopamine from somewhere, this is where mediation, exercise, reading, and eating healthier come in.
    When Are You Recovered (Signs)
    When you dont pornify women
    When you are able to enjoy the opposite genders not only for the body
    The Rebooting Mindset
    This is probably the most important section:
    In your journey of NoFap you must have this Mindset
    Truth Mindset
    Be honest with yourself, as NoFappers we can all agree that Porn is not worth it and it makes you feel miserable inside.
    You must act logically and not let your emotions get the best of you
    Growth Mindset
    See the reboot as a challenge not a burden, embrace the process and understand not only will it help you with getting rid of porn, but other things in your life, by having an increased will power, it allows to grow as a human being.
    Engagement Mindset
    People use Porn as a virtual world to escape the reality, instead turn your stress into an action get that thing done. Don't Run Away In Your Fucking Hole Of Porn
    Realize the benefits not only are you stopping porn, but you get amazing benefits like increased confidence, motivation, and not being tied down to the porn industry.
    Bullshit Your Brain Tells You

    • "One time won't hurt anything"
      • Response: If I allow myself to go against my truth once, then why wouldn't I do it again?
    • "I worked hard and deserve a reward"
      • Response: Porn use is not a reward because it ultimately just makes my life worse
    • "I don't have a sexual partner so I need this"
      • Response: No, I don't need, this I just want this because I'm addicted to it. In fact this is part of what is keeping me from getting the relationships I TRULY want.
    *All Credit Goes to NoFap Resources
    I will be constantly updating, as I will fail forward in my life
    PS: Check out my journal, to see my journey

    Also I am so confident that this works, if I do not reach my goal of 90 days I will create a video exposing my face, talking about why I failed, even though I studied all of fapping.
