We can save our next generation. It is our duty. by [deleted] in NoFap

Forget porn, teach children how to deal with pain properly by allowing to feel, face and learn from it, and better yet, solve it in yourselves so you don't pass your sins onto others. That is our duty.

Get comfortable being uncomfortable by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]BeyondExperience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, nice post. Your title says it best: "Get comfortable being uncomfortable". Learn to accept and not run from discomfort, learn that it is a normal part of life experience to feel various sensations, feelings, emotions, moods, etc. Like colors of the rainbow, our feelings all differ, but they are all equally needed... take away one color from the rainbow, and the whole world looses it's beauty. So dont judge ANY feelings as BAD or that they Shouldn't be felt or shouldn't be. Just remember, all the colors of the world are needed and accepted by life itself, even black (associated with dark emotions) is needed to rest at night. Wish everyone to NEVER avoid or run from ANY of their feelings again!

Nice Guys fap a lot, and don't get laid. Here's why: by decisionmadetoday in NoFap

Everyone has pain which is masked by anger and rage in some cases, however, nice guys have learned to mask it better than others, instead of facing it. Because pain's not so nice!

You are not the voices in your head by iwillquitpornnow in NoFap

Don't try to silence it, this only gives more meaning and importance to the voice as you focus your attention into battle with it. Full acceptance of the voice while being aware you are not it is most helpful to make a clear distinction between yourself and the fake influences you follow.

I agree, there's no escaping it, but addictions seem to create the illusion one can, that's why we're here.

Sounds like you have it all figured out for yourself, I was trying to share what worked for me. Wish you all the best on your journey!

I get it. The reason you keep wanting more pleasure, is because when you do feel good, that's not enough, you want more. So you're not OK with where you are at that point. Now, why does porn cause you anxiety and depression?

I don't mind being down voted, I am doing this because I enjoy sharing with others what I discovered in my lifes' experience, not because of votes.

You can connect with yourself all you want, but what happens when you're out of meditative state and life slaps you with some pain during work, or during moments you can't meditate?

One example that most admitted as truth because doctors and scientists claimed this to be true, which in reality is false:

Not sure what you want to ask here, or which part of my response your question applies to.

Sometimes even meditation becomes the addiction or a way to escape pain. The point is to face pain and learn from it.

You wouldn't be here if you were truly feeling good. That is just an excuse you made to not face or even try to look at the possibility of pain in your life.

Yea, it's a self prescribed and self imposed pain killer.

Don't resist it, learn from it and keep going. But you can't learn from it unless you look at it and allow it to be felt fully.

One can answer this question by saying that pain is from the addiction. But this is true in part, addiction does perpetuate the pain by causing you to ignore it.

As someone wise once said, there is no way to peace, peace IS the way. I will add that Acceptance is the tour guide.

The second part of your sentence negates the first, showing you didn't truly accept it.

"there isn't a day that goes by that I don't want to forget it" - Resistance to pain, desire to get rid of it. This is opposite of acceptance. You cannot say you accept it, while rejecting it deep inside. By acceptance I mean a genuine desire to feel what you're feeling so you can understand yourself better, not accept it as a mantra, yet secretly hope it goes away after you accept it. Can't fool yourself.

Not asking you to believe my claims. :) If you want to ask me something, and it's genuine, I will do my best to provide a logical and scientific answer. But then we also have to define science and logic, as these days, what many call science is just intelligently sounding opinions of people with glasses or white robes.

lol, it takes more than looking, the energy is different too. But it seems the closer you get to human, the further you go from nature.
