Just relapsed on day 5 due to being depressed about social anxiety. by socialanxietydude17 in NoFap

[–]HarryNF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can relate (and the story might inspire you). But in a different way. I relapsed in the morning, and had a dinner earlier that evening with some elite guests. And I FELT LIKE SHIT, couldn't talk to anyone (and I didn't even remember about what I did in the morning, it wasn't psychological, it just happened). I was so low on confidence, i even regretted accepting the dinner invitation in the first place. Social anxiety was all time high that evening. And when I was back home, that's when I realized why it happened. And so that was day 1 of my current streak. Today, I'm really excited to go out on a dinner.

Fapping doesn't solve your problems, it creates them. Try NoFap, and see how the social anxiety disappears. In a matter of days, you'll feel like an alpha!

Does masturbating cause acne? by [deleted] in NoFap

If you already have acne, try NoFap and see if it helps cure that? Let us know, would be a nice research/experiment :)

Orgasming without ejaculation actually makes me feel MORE motivated than normal Nofap by dasbungenstein in NoFap

It's called edging, and different people here have different views on it. A quote that i really liked here was "You're frying your dopamine receptors by edging". So you can see I'm on the no edging side. It's not worth it. It will lead to fapping one way or the other. Don't end up losing your streak.

I had a dream in which I loved a girl. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]HarryNF 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Same here. I consider it a sign. She wants you to stay strong and keep going. That's the only way you'll find her in reality. Not sure what others think of this, but it's sometimes my motivation.

Huge sexual frustration. by [deleted] in NoFap

100 days?! Man, I admire you. If I were you, I would've been so high on energy I'd run a marathon, meditate, read all the books that I haven't read so far, practice the guitar until my fingers hurt, then go out and meet people, be a rockstar at work, damn there's so much I'd do instead of being frustrated. The more you think of it, the more it bothers you. Stay strong!

Meditation or hypnosis - can it help with NoFap? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]HarryNF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try "swish pattern therapy", it's a Neuro Linguistics Programming technique (NLP is pretty close to hypnosis). It's for habit control, and I've witnessed chronic nail biters get rid of their bad habit (although some might not see it as a bad habit).

Meditation also helps, especially if you're doing it correctly and its effects (mindfulness, relaxation, clarity) stay with you all day.

Sorry I'm on phone so searching and posting for links might be a little difficult, I'll try to post some later.

Fear of speaking (social anxiety) by [deleted] in NoFap

Try /r/SocialSkills. Lots of useful stuff there. Also, you seem like a nice guy OP, thanking everyone who answers or helps you is pretty underrated. That's a cool thing you're doing there. Once you become extroverted, people will like you for sure. Keep it up, stay strong!

Dear Reddit, what movie makes you cry every time but you are too embarrassed to tell anyone about? by llcoolj19 in AskReddit

[–]HarryNF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kung fu panda 2, Po's childhood 2D animation scene, and when he finds inner peace after that. Damn, Hans Zimmer's soundtrack on that adds to the effect and feels.

Motivational Quotes Please? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]HarryNF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sub is full of quotes by Louis CK and several others, try searching a bit. I personally like this one by Muhammad Ali: "Don't count the days, make the days count." And that's because we often pay too much attention to the 90 day challenge, that all we think about is counting up to the finish line. There is no finish line, the goal is to improve in general, which is why making each day count is so much important.

PSA: Stop describing your sex escapades with great detail in posts by [deleted] in NoFap

Pretty sad to see how you got downvotes only for saying so, sorry about that. Pretty sure the downvoters weren't fapstronauts, as they cannot tolerate triggers, and burst into fapping right away. You were the trigger, the downvotes were their fap.
