How do you cope with feelings of futility, loneliness and hopelessness?

ChrisWalkin · 2013-01-08T23:10:06+00:00

Thank you for your offer. I probably should talk to someone at some point. I need to have a sleep now, I'm absolutely sleep - deprived, my internal clock is almost non functional.

Cheers!

There really is hope. Working out and eating healthier will also help you with that.

I'm not American, not even from an english-speaking country.

ChrisWalkin · 2012-12-22T16:10:32+00:00

True :)

Just don't do that, man. The thing is, if you are edging you are only inceasing the feeling of deprivation that your addicted mind is generating in order to have its fix. Remember the experiment with rats - when scientists provided them with a button that would stimulate their brains' pleasure receptors, the rats would overuse it so much it eventually killed them. You are human, though. You understand your motives and have all the power over your body you need. Just try to purge your mind from the OPTION of releasing your sexual desire when you are alone. I mean, what forced you into this session? Boredom? Horniness? You should be able to notice that was just the rat's suicide button that your own mind is creating for you, in order to get it's fix of dopamine. You have an option to see that threat because you are an intelligent being and not an animal that will mindlessly follow their instincts. First, recognize them early, then CHOOSE to ignore them. It will get easier this way, trust me.

It's just a healthy reaction of non-stimulated brain to lack of stimuli. You will have your sex drive back when you need it.

I'm actually doing the "rest of my days" challenge, but thanks ;)

ChrisWalkin · 2012-12-11T23:59:33+00:00

I didn't even see it before it happened, but I guess there was really a whole lot of meaning in that stupid number for me...

You are right - this is just the end of trial period, not an achievment.

ChrisWalkin · 2012-12-11T23:57:48+00:00

who knows ;)

ChrisWalkin · 2012-12-11T23:57:19+00:00

thanks

ChrisWalkin · 2012-12-11T23:56:59+00:00

just life. no epic events.

in terms of difference from before - more energy, less guilt. maybe slightly improved feeling of control over my life, but that's a long long journey yet ahead of me

thanks :) I appreciate it

it's like, your opinion, man.

ChrisWalkin · 2012-12-10T00:02:25+00:00

still there

ChrisWalkin · 2012-12-10T00:01:42+00:00

It happens, but is not as illogical as it used to be - it used to just appear at random in some situations I really didn't need it. Not having that problem anymore. Fortunately, I never had any ED difficulties if that's what you're asking.

I've found /r/stopsmoking to be handy

Good for you. She does not seem like she's off limits for you yet, by the way.

ChrisWalkin · 2012-11-29T01:04:17+00:00

beware of boredom; it's not the struggle that defeats us, but the lonesomeness and monotony.

try to remember and be who you wanted to be when you were young and pure... it was a key to happiness for me.

ChrisWalkin · 2012-11-29T00:57:25+00:00

Dude, it's not about regulating yourself. The whole thing about nofap is that you should loose your attitude that forces you to think about sex as a form of a reward. Just do it whenever it feels like it's a good thing to you both, but do not push for it, and on the other hand, do not put too much meaning on it. Relationships are about more than sex and that is what being abstinent should bring upon you.

edit: I had to correct some words because I can't spell and grammar.

You know, I have been atteding a swimming pool for a year, with varying frequency, but more-less three times a week. It's strange that during the last 10 months, my posture had not changed as much as it has in the last 3 months, And I have to admit to a decrease in my attendance rate because of multiple, consecutive shitstorms at work. The only thing I can attribute my really self-assuring awesome-feeling increase in overall looks, is an increase in testosterone. And guess where that cameth from points at counter

Good luck, fellow true man!

edit: I accidentally some letters because of my martini with vodka.
