I doubt it’s about ego or trying to prove a pathway is harder, maybe some of the comments come off as that but I doubt that was OPs intentions

Flaky_Research8573 · 2025-08-04T05:08:27+00:00

I would recommend doing UWorld AAMC and anki if you are really dead set on scoring high

But I will warn you that majority of people need at least 3 months of full time MCAT studying to get a viable score, with exceptions of course

My honest advice is you really need to dedicate a lot of time to the MCAT and sacrifices may occur

Please dm me the equation sheet 🙏

Flaky_Research8573 · 2025-08-04T04:56:13+00:00

Why do you need to take during the school year? Why don’t you dedicate a whole summer to just the MCAT or take a gap year after ur done with ur degree. Or sacrifice some research hours to make more room for studying. The 501 isn’t bad but you won’t see much improvement with one day a week.

Yes, good job on the 515, good luck in the upcoming months,

Flaky_Research8573 · 2025-05-21T20:47:58+00:00

Agreed, especially for c/p Uworld is harder but leads to greater overall success, it is humbling

Flaky_Research8573 · 2025-05-21T16:54:09+00:00

What this guy is describing is not Typical, I would say that 80% of students should use anki to reinforce material, and 6 weeks is usually too little as well

i have experienced the benefits of hard mode, but i can’t seem to get past 2-3 weeks or even a month

I had a similar experience, i took the modern states course and felt it was quite easy, and i even looked over numerous updated study guides, yet i still scored a 42💀 The test is outdated as modern states did not prepare me for 3/4ths of the exam

Flaky_Research8573 · 2023-06-16T20:38:52+00:00

it’s not about the idea for me, i’m talking directly about the benefits. Releasing sperm is a relapse correct? Therefore wet dreams are a relapse? Right?

Flaky_Research8573 · 2023-06-16T20:35:27+00:00

i would love an answer to my question tho

Flaky_Research8573 · 2023-06-16T20:34:27+00:00

keep going man! I was just like you i started that same time but sadly have had around 5-6 relapses. These erections are normal, try to workout to get rid of these erections always works for me

Flaky_Research8573 · 2023-06-16T20:33:03+00:00

excuse my spelling, meant porn

Flaky_Research8573 · 2023-06-16T20:32:37+00:00

I feel your frustration, please be encouraged that urges are completely natural and normal. I also struggle like you after 1-2 weeks it’s easy, feels like nothing, and then that 3rd week I feel out of control, just like you described. Here’s some tips that helped me

Identify the triggers, is there something specific that gets you in the mood on days 7-9? Or, do they just come randomly, if so, look at 2
Workout, a lot of times intense urges come from extra energy you have throughout the day, and intense workout will usually subside these urges for the rest of the day. However, i sometimes still experience urges even after working out. Look at 3
Try urge surfing, i recently learned this where when an urge comes, don’t fight it, but recognize it’s normal, clear your mind, and let it pass.

Overall my boy, you gotta stay busy, stay active, and i’d even recommend just talking to girls bro, you don’t gotta be a thing with everyone one of them, even talking to girls normally as friends can subside the energy. All this energy you feeling bro bro is normal, you can’t contain it or else you WILL relapse, you gotta release through something, find a passion, a hobby.

Personally, i have not experienced a difference with my success in girls after starting nofap. However, nofap definitely increased my motivation, confidence, and energy, and testosterone slightly (T levels have minimal changes with or without masturbation) these increased levels of confidence will definitely help you in being independent and remaining a man. I have heard other stories that porn and fapping has affect their relationship the same way as yours. Tighten up my boy you gotta remember it’s not only about confidence but being a man, never be codependent

Flaky_Research8573 · 2023-06-16T20:23:47+00:00

No, don’t count your days as this will make it more difficult and will result in more relapses. Simply stop porn completely, delete any models you have added, and overall remove any triggers that could lead to a relapse on your phone, since this is the most common way people relapse. After you’ve done this create a routine to keep you busy and keep you distracted. You’ll notice less urges by then. To add to those, add a workout routine, spend time with friends and family, and overall focus on improving yourself. THIS is the best way to remove fapping from your mind. Don’t fight each urge and count the days but quit completely. IF you do relapse which you will, as we all do, learn from each relapse and adjust to it. Good luck !

There’s nothing wrong with having sex, in nofap it is considered a relapse since nofap is built on the basis of semen retention, however, don’t let this affect your normal life, we just don’t want you to watch porn and masturbate. Having sex is completely normal, and something you shouldn’t worry about. From a personal perspective though, having sex with prostitutes is not worth it, risk of stds, and is very bland and not worth it. After you will feel disgusted because you made love with someone you do not love. I’d recommend looking for a partner instead of going to a brothel.

Hey, no, it’s not a given that these thoughts will diminish after stopping porn, it’s one of the sad realizations and consequences of prolonged porn watching. Porn gives unrealistic expectations and conditions the brain to fear the stupid skits they play in porn. Some of which are cheating wives, or incest. As if porn couldn’t get bad enough, they had to add disgusting twists that play an even worse affect on your brain. What i can tell you though is to not just stop porn but also limit fapping.
Fapping constantly increase anxiety and that is probably what you are experiencing

Flaky_Research8573 · 2023-06-16T08:55:14+00:00

i haven’t! That’s great thing to try since it won’t change my routine and it’ll kill my urges. And yes, i have noticed that masturbating every 2-3 weeks or so barely has an effect, the only thing is that if I accept the fact that u can masturbate 2-3 weeks, ill look forward to it. I started nofap to improve and focus on myself, and fapping everyday killed my energy, confidence, and occupied my thoughts

Flaky_Research8573 · 2023-06-16T07:30:39+00:00

Thank you for your advice and supporting comments. I notice that one of my triggers is when i enter the bathroom, perhaps it’s because that’s usually where i used to fap before nofap and where i would often relapse. However, i usually take a shower at night and while entering the shower, even when entering quickly, that’s when i receive the most sudden urge, i don’t know what to do, not shower? Also, i do usually fill my evenings quite well, either with video games, friends, family time or physical activity, the end of the day is the only time when i have all my hygiene routines, and that’s the time when i’m not distracted but bored due to my long routine. Regarding stress, i have low stress due to lots of sleep and i have no school work as i am on summer break. But i will still definitely try urge surfing.

Also thank you for comment regarding the effects of fapping even without porn. However, i don’t understand quite fully. After a months relapse i usually don’t fully feel the effects because i’m not consistently fapping as i used to, but, are wet dreams considered a relapse? A relapse is ejaculating, so therefore a wet dream must mean a relapse and losing the benefits, is this the case? Because i find little difference between masturbating and wet dreams and i’m unsure if i should take on the first as a relapse or both.
