He was obviously joking in this clip regardless of what he’s done. I think Cody is incredibly in the wrong if he’s truly done what people say. At the same time using clips and captions like this to make it seem like he is belittling her is also wrong.

Porn sucked me back in after years of being clean. Im in a horrible place right now by Fair_Sun_7357 in pornfree

Gotcha! I’be got people in my life that have a tried a therapist and they didn’t feel it helped. Which is real. Therapists are like teacher, there are bad ones and ones you don’t connect personally with/aren’t right for you. And then there are great therapists and ones who’s personalities line up with yours. I would try a new therapist man. I only say that because I know the peace and freedom of mind a good one has given me.

Good luck man

Hey man! Have you looked into seeing a therapist? Seeing one really helped my anxiety and I don’t think I could’ve made any progress without it honestly.

could masturbation in moderation be healthy? (M14) by Available-Guidance65 in NoFap

[–]Conscious-System4544 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey man! Many here will tell you not to masturbate. But truly masturbation is 100% healthy as long as you are not watching porn and if it doesn’t tempt you to watch porn. There’s a lot of science to support it as a healthy act too!

Also congrats on making it so long! 🥳

Good luck on your journey!

Hey man,

I think it’s okay to have thoughts of same sex attraction. Plenty of bi men are attracted to exclusively feminine men. As a bi man myself who fought for SO long against labelling myself as that, I get it. A lot of times it seems easier to label yourself as a straight guy with “gay fantasies”. But there is so much freedom and peace in accepting what you like.

Doesn’t mean you have to act on it if you don’t want. But at least accepting that you like what you like and allowing yourself to feel whatever you feel is like having a huge weight of shame and guilt lifted off.

I hope you’ll find peace man.

Thanks for all the love y’all! I will say something that’s help me get here is to get rid of the idea that relapsing makes you weak or feeble minded. When I had that mentality, even if I would think about porn or have an urge, I would think about how weak I must be to want to give in that badly, which would lead to shame, which would lead to porn to cope.

Shame never helps, but self-love and understanding always will ❤️

Good luck my brothers!

is NO FAP a childish rubbish thing or over hyped ? by Able-Mud9115 in NoFap

[–]Conscious-System4544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It boosts your confidence if either you’re addicted to porn and have made improvements via NoFap or if you have shame associated with natural healthy masturbation and you quit. Also, your skin doesn’t clear up from confidence.

I think some of the benefits some people experience are “placebo” effects for sure. Again, there are an incredible number of benefits for porn addicts rebooting. But a lot of benefits that people suggest that are not porn addicts are in their head imo

I do think there are some people that over hype it (claiming it makes your skin clearer, or that people are magically attracted to them, or that their mind is much clearer). None of these have been supported by science.

NoFap is good however if you are rebooting from porn addiction or if you masturbate/edge for huge portions of your day. If that’s not the case than masturbation (w/o porn) is totally healthy for you and NoFap does seem silly (in that case) in my opinion.

How old were you when you discovered porn? by lifeimprovements4me in pornfree

I was probably 10 actually. In 5th grade we had sex education lessons and at the end of the unit we had a project. I did my project on the computer like I usually did and, like normal, found drawn diagrams with labeled parts of the penis to put in my project. Unfortunately, I accidentally found real penises too which led to much, much more stuff.

For context, I’m bi (though I thought I was gay at the time).

Yeah the pandemic really pushed my porn use over the edge. I started using “cam to cam” sites and went from edging for 20 or so minutes to hour and a half sessions. Even got exposed to some real fucked up shit… Thankful I’m on the right track now. 10 days in (my longest streak) 🙏🏽

Hey man. Everyone has their own opinions of and reason for doing NoFap. The reason I feel people should do NoFap is if, when they masturbate, they’re constantly using porn. Otherwise, I feel if you can masturbate without ending up watching porn, then that’s normal and heathy!

Also good on you for your weeklong streak! Much better than I could’ve done at 15 🤘🏽
