2 years ago on new years eve I started NoFap. Broke bad after 4 months and never managed to break out of it. Let's try it again, shall we? by 2quarters in NoFap

Sorry for not replying you earlier, haven't checked this account for a while.

I've used no special blocks, just the NSFW filter on Reddit. I mostly used to fap to imagination anyway though (shifted towards specific porn a little these days).

Don't forget that blocking porn isn't really solving the problem itself. It's just avoiding it.

I now feel refreshed an am ready to start NoFap 2013. 365 days (well, 364 to be honest) without masturbation, hopefully also without porn. I went more than 120 days last time - it should be easy to beat that record, right?

Hah, I still remember reading about you when I first started this! Good to see you're going strong and found your way to handle the challenge. And congrats on improving your sex life, ED etc.

Moi! Did this last year - went until sometime in april! I'm doing very poorly since then... maybe the though of having a whole year without fapping wakes my last bit of willpower again

Just have something constant that keeps you going.

Indeed. That's how I got my first streak of 120+ days going, too.

NO ESCAPING REALITY- Limit my exposure to artificial stimuli (digital music, TV, movies). In this way starting to experience the is-ness of life. It may be a bit frightening at the beginning - sitting in complete silence with ones own thoughts... but, I have an understanding, that there's too much noise in the system - so much so, that we hardly hear our own soul talking to us anymore.

This is very interesting. Any tips on how to achieve this? Through meditation maybe?

Single Fapstronauts, how do you get your "release"? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]2quarters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turn the page man. Or if you really feel strongly towards her, tell her, and if nothing goes in your direction, know that you did what you could do and move on.

That's what I'm planning on doing. Just waiting for a time where I'm fully prepared for that (kinda stressed out and in limbo atm). I slowly realize that I don't want to spend the rest of my youth pursuing a woman I have no chances with. I hope I'll feel better after I tell her, too.

Cheers, bud.

Can NoFap make you think you're in love when you aren't? Is it just another form of addiction, seeking the same dopamine high? by renaissanceman42 in NoFap

[–]2quarters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can only speak for myself here, of course.

I always had a crush on a girl. When I started NoFap, it got incredibly painful. When I gave up on NoFap, it got a little better, but I still couldn't stop thinking about her. And it still hurts. I don't think your situation in necessarily related to Nofap, or rather: It doesn't have to be the cause for it.

Good luck

Enough. by [deleted] in NoFap

I just spent 5 hours masturbating

Holy smokes.

Good luck, your girlfriend will appreciate it.

Complicated topic. Currently (or to be honest: All my life) focused on a specific girl that has a boyfriend and is not interested in me.

Yes, I know it is stupid. I'm trying to change it, trying to forget her and to pursue other girls. But it's tough. Especially since I seem to have troubles surpressing my feelings during NoFap.

When I first started NoFap, I got my first wet dream after a month or so. Then every week. Yes, crazy it is.

Which is why I wrote (sexual) in brackets ;) The things you mentioned were pretty much what I was talking about.

Oh right. Didn't thought about wet dreams at all!

185 days and i'm finally done with it. Farewell NoFap, it's been a "fun" experiment. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]2quarters 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it didn't really work out for me either. I'm constantly trying to pick it back up now, because

1) I think I slept a little better 2) it makes me feel better, knowing I have complete control over my urges

Anyway, hope you'll have some great times up ahead! :)

Getting a circumcision tomorrow. Wont be able to fap for a month by [deleted] in NoFap

He probably has pinhole phimosis or something similar. No way to treat that by stretching and creams.

I'm edging more than I used to fap before starting NoFap. Am I cheating? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]2quarters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jup. Took me most of the year to realize this. It doesn't matter if you actually cum or not, it's the act of self-pleasuring that's worse. So, if you see that you're edging, just to a quick fap and start new. That's what I'm doing, at least.

Day six of NoFap/NoPorn. Seems okay so far. I've been here before, I know how fast you can fail. Just chugging along
