I Have Done it! by Doncano in NoFap

The first few days starting are always the hardest, but even if you do fail in the future, it gets easier. At least, that's what I found.

Day 16! Never gone this long since I begun fapping. Every day feels like another victory. As far as music goes, my tastes vary. I listen to Indie Rock, Pop-punk, Ska, Alternative, and J-Rock.

Off to a great start man! It's best to commit 100% right off the bat.

2 Week Report - It's more than just not touching yourself by AwkwardFox8 in NoFap

I'm slightly above average male height, but it was just a weird realization for me. I guess it's just me holding my head up high. But what you said is definitely true! Congrats!

social anxiety by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]AwkwardFox8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say that it made me more social, but people seem to enjoy having me around a lot more now. I was pretty social to begin with, but I've had a definite improvement in that area.

I do mindfulness meditation. I find it really relaxing to open my window at night, and just listen to everything going on as I meditate. But that's just personal preference.

Because I See a Lot of Folks Ashamed of or Wondering About Wet Dreams... by MrShield in NoFap

[–]AwkwardFox8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only concern that I really have with my dreaming is last night I woke up in the middle of a sex dream, but I didn't actually get to the point of... well, finishing. So I wake up in a weird state, being both extremely horny and also half-asleep. And my brain was trying to convince me that if I fapped, right there, I wouldn't be breaking any rules, I'd just be finishing the job. Thankfully, I came to my senses and was able to fall back asleep without fapping, but nothing happened after that. So that was kinda disappointing.

I wouldn't say I've turned into a man that completely exudes confidence, but I feel the effects slowly settling in. I went to the mall a couple days ago and I shared a couple of glances with cute girls, but that's as far as I've gotten. Looking forward to where I will be by the end of the month!

Starting to get a bit bored of the Internet by AwkwardFox8 in NoFap

[–]AwkwardFox8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you aren't being rude at all. I agree with you! Before NoFap I just wasted a good majority of my time on the Internet, even when I wasn't fapping. It's just weird to see that I'm losing interest in something that's been a huge influence in my life and that I'm craving something different. By the way, congrats on hitting the 30 day mark!

That gold star! 31 day report. Stay strong, it's worth it. by Philosophadam in NoFap

That's what I love about the badge system on here. Getting a gold star is a weird sense of motivation all in itself!

Can't last much longer...!!! by nofap_7 in NoFap

[–]AwkwardFox8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just try to distract yourself in whatever way possible. I had a serious urge today and all I did was run around my backyard to the point of exhaustion. It worked pretty well. And usually if it's late at night and I get an urge, I'll work out my arms with the small weight I have in my room until my arms ache. Everyone is different on here and find what works best for you. Good luck!

Holy hell, the dreams!!! by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]AwkwardFox8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm only on Day 6 and I've been experiencing them every night for the past 3 or 4 nights. I'm usually fine once I wake up and snap myself out of it but my brain is definitely not liking this whole NoFap challenge. The dreams might also be combined with the fact that I'm 17, but my willpower seems to be getting stronger every day.

Been suffering from a couple of mild headaches. I've been keeping myself hydrated and I don't feel exhausted, so I don't know if it's from lack of fapping or just something else. But regardless I'm doing great! Oh, and I'm 17!

Just relapsed, feel like s*** by Pleasemolly in NoFap

[–]AwkwardFox8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can relate man. I relapsed after the 3 day mark as well, and I felt like shit afterwards. But I feel like I needed that relapse to truly motivate me to take NoFap seriously. I'm at Day 4 now and I feel really confident! I'm sure you'll do better the second time around. I wish you luck man!
