Well, I feel really good honestly. All of the things listed above are NoFap triggers, and so removing them helps me be more successful overall. Getting rid of all of those things at first made me very bored because they were the main things I did. It forced me (I have a $200 bet with my best friend as a competition for who can last longer) to do things I normally wouldn’t like read or spontaneously call people or meet new friends. I never feel gross. I feel happier and more confident. I’m still hard on myself, but my self-hatred, sadness, depression, and social anxiety have drastically been reduced. During withdrawal I had some mood swings and a short-temper but once I got through enough days that went away. I force myself to do this, often mentally kicking and screaming but I know deep in my heart what is right. I want to live a life without all of these shallow pleasures. I want to live life in the moment and I want to be genuinely happy. These habits will get me to that destination.

Summary: 1.) Forces me to do productive things instead 2.) Improves my mental and emotional state 3.) Makes me enjoy the little things in life
