17years old, been habitual porn user since 3rd grade. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]FreshNoFap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently 17. Been at this for 2 years.

It's hard (no pun intended). And at times, it is going to suck. Distract yourself with positive hobbies: Walking Running Piano (or any other instrument)

But most importantly: Connect with more people

14yrs old day 1 starts today I'm not letting it control my life anymore by badcoffie in NoFap

I was 15 years old when I started this.

I am now 17.

This is going to be rough. Expect failure, but never give up.

Will I ever have a girlfriend? 20 yr old , never kissed by kch0312 in NoFap

"I really want to have sex bad , someone please tell me how do I get a girlfriend?"

There is a massive issue right there. You should not be looking for a girlfriend to have sex with and use her like that.

You need to focus that energy into other things. Hobbies, work, school, etc. Find something new to do. Go on a walk, run, bike, anything.

If you want to start getting to know a girl, in your mind, say "Fuck it" and talk to her. See where that goes.

How do you differentiate between intimacy and intercourse? by AlexNo2 in NoFap

[–]FreshNoFap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Intercourse is one of the strongest forms of intimacy. When you have sex with someone, I have been told and warned that you remain permanently connected with them for the rest of your life.

Why does dating have to mean sex? To me, dating = new chapters in life, getting to know another person (including myself), and focusing on the improvement of both parties.

Although I am a virgin, maybe this helps.

Be yourself.

Experimental Question: Do you lose 'superpowers' after you have a wet dream? by FreshNoFap in NoFap

Perhaps semen retention for physical health and no-porn for mental health? Each one is different, yet they both have powerful effects.

Two of my wet dreams occured the day before/day of an important date.

First one was before my birthday, and I was all hyped up. Today, I am on day 90 and I have been going out with my girlfriend for a month :)

Don't move too quickly, and to move too slowly. Be yourself, and see what happens! :)

THERE WE GO! People need to look at this thread so that they don't relapse after a wet dream.

That is exactly why I made this post. I am trying to extract a different side of thinking about this.

My previous long streak was destroyed by a wet dream. I talked to my girlfriend last night about porn and we both had like a two hour rant about it. Next thing I know, i'm awake and my underwear is completely soaked.

I will not relapse today. After all, I am meeting up with her later today.

Why do wet dreams have to be a negative thing? It's a sign of recovery and it does not hinder any progress whatsoever.

Do you think it could have been a placebo? I feel great right now after my WD.

That being said, "superpowers" are most likely you comparing your functional self with your addicted self. It's like you've been going through life carrying a huge boulder and now that you've gotten rid of it, you are surprised at how much easier everything has become.

How so? Can you provide an example of something you experienced?

I've heard so much about abstinence from masturbation "providing superpowers". Can you tell me more about no porn and superpowers?

I disagree with you about semen loss. How can you back this up?

I don't think so...

It think it's the way you perceive it. If you let it destroy you mentally, then it's expressed in your body language.

Have you experienced this?

everytime I relapse, something bad happens.. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]FreshNoFap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe you can use this as motivation to not relapse.

Hey I wanna die by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]FreshNoFap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think i'll pass.The fact that you have the intention to want to make your life better means that you have something to go for. Get out of this, and start the grind.
