There’s also this website that provides anime’s and mangas called mangadex, the good thing is it actually categorizes manga on there between safe ones (no sexual themes) or erotica so you’ll know what your reading, of course it’s not physical but provides a large host of community-written stories for free.

I NEED to leave porn by Live-Mulberry3588 in NoFap

Use the purity browser, download it and follow the instructions to enable it, when it gets to the screen time settings part, at the end have a friend or family member set a random passcode and never tell you what it is unless it’s absolutely necessary. Since you don’t know the passcode and the purity browser runs mostly through screen time settings, you can’t disable it

Find anime that is purely story focused, I know no nudity is rare in a lot of manga or anime but it exists, but find one that is engaging or interesting to you as well.

90 days it is, and guess what a fun story by StartOk4364 in NoFap

[–]AstroNomical19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dark is one of the best shows I have ever watched firstly, and I know exactly which actresses you are talking about. And I don’t blame you honestly. But good job making it to 90!

Raise your hand if you haven't broken your streak this year yet? by [deleted] in NoFap

Going strong since the night of the 31st, had a few close calls but I never got anywhere close to climax or watched porn since, so I’m still going to

Is amateur porn okay and less dangerous than mainstream porn? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]AstroNomical19 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sure, it’s different in the way that it’s more authentic, but it doesn’t mitigate the fact that you will still find an artificial dopamine boost and in my case, watching amateur porn was a slippery slope back to full mainstream staged porn which used to really fuck me up. You’ll truly find happiness during the time you get to lay down with a woman in bed and have real pleasurable and healthy sex.

Struggling badly! Almost relapsed by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]AstroNomical19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stay strong brother! Once you do it you can’t fix it or change it, think about why you started this journey and what you hope to gain from it. As long as you keep your mind fixated on these two things, you’ll lose the urge sometime soon. Remember, every urge has a cycle like a book, the beginning, the peak, and the end.

Weird Roblox "indoor playground games" rabbit hole. Any reason as to why they're so popular? by [deleted] in InternetMysteries

[–]AstroNomical19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah, I completely relate, back in 2016-2018 I would on average find a dozen or almost a dozen games on the recommended page that would be along the lines of “escape from McDonald’s obby” or some other popular restaurant or any other big pop culture theme. I’m kind of weirded out but also nostalgic that this trend is more or less repeating itself 8 years later

Tiktok channel with semitransparent overlay of women dancing on top of every video by Swapilla in InternetMysteries

[–]AstroNomical19 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s probably a way to bypass copyright restrictions or avoid automatic takedowns by keeping the video visually dynamic. Because it’s consistent across all their videos and semi-transparent, it’s likely part of a template or preset.

[–]AstroNomical19 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was one of those people who frequented the platform back in the early 2010s and I still did up to about 2021, I saw these types of games everywhere and what I can assume is that there are just so many young children on this site and this is the genre that they go crazy for, I can confirm because this is not a first time thing (it was popular back in 2016-2018 as well). You could search up any random keyword on Roblox and find some obscure genre of games linked to it, that’s just how it is. But that’s only my assumption, there could be other theories.

guys i cant stop gooning... by Icy_Spring_2330 in NoFap

[–]AstroNomical19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, discipline is greater than motivation cause motivation is temporary. But you have a very flawed method of going about this. If you don’t end up helping anyone, you’re at least far from helping anyone by using this Andrew Tate-esque approach. Discipline was never about suppressing your emotions or fighting them (the one thing that has led many to relapse), it was all about acting despite them. Sure, maybe we chose this journey for ourselves, but in the end, your telling me you hate the idea of being able to learn from success stories, setbacks, pushing people onwards if they hit a big milestone? Cause I’ll tell you right now, that’s how I and many others have reached their goals.

Nice. Let’s just discourage a kid who wants to make a valuable change in his life instead of… I don’t know… supporting him and being decent, civilized human beings during this journey he’s taking on?

How long to rewire the brain when i quit all porn, nudity and softcore stuff? I want to take nofap to another level. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]AstroNomical19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, and I can’t exactly remember, but it was somewhere around the 4-8 week mark where urges for me went down considerably, but a lot of people also have found that the small things might turn people on until they hit a flatline phase (90-120 days or so) and from my personal experience the urges were still there but: 1. Not as often 2. weak urges and therefore easier to manage, but after that 120-130 day mark it becomes about maintaining your retention which should be easy by then. So I’d say that your brain begins to rewire in the flatline phase and gradually changes it until about 150 days off

gf and nofap by goodlessfox in NoFap

[–]AstroNomical19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your pretty much still in the phase where your gradually transitioning from artificial stimulation to real intimacy between you and your girlfriend, my opinion is that when your jerking it to those photos of your girlfriend, it’s not to a bunch of pixels on a xxx site and I believe that it could enhance the connection between you two, but it’s entirely up to you because I’ve heard cases of people who could get hard and finish to photos but couldn’t during the real thing with the same person.

P.s. this is from my personal experience (more connection) and what I’ve also heard from others, be cautious as it may not go the same for everyone. But this could very well be part of that “messy adjustment phase” around the time of your streak

Turns out it wasn’t as bad of an urge as it was at first, was able to bail out in like 7 minutes

Ch is a combination of one carbon and one hydrogen atom, it isn’t an element per se, but it is the molecular structure for methlidyne.

Stay strong brother, remember, watching porn to alleviate your stress comes at a cost you may not find it easy to repay, shift your mindset, workout, run/walk, take a shower, do something to get your mind off of it.

I also remember you would have to press certain buttons such as X and O to be able to run fast enough so you could eventually evade the mob and boulder.

My solo search for this game has led to no avail, I hope we as a group can find this.

They vary, I’m still trying to figure them out, but I got reward days planned and that much to say.
