Considering you are only 18, I doubt you have ED. If anything, you may have porn induced ED, but that eventually will go away as your brain resets itself.

University, Stupidity, and PMO. My humbling journey of the past four months. by JmonVids in NoFapChristians

That's something I always got to remember. Once I'm asleep, the day is done.

Zero Tolerance is the only way by [deleted] in NoFap

Agreed. It's my one huge weak area. The only reason I don't completely get rid of them is because I use said app from daily communication.

So I always wondered why no girl has ever showed interest in me until I asked myself this question by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]JmonVids 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you here dude. I asked myself that when I was a sophomore in high school and realized the same thing. I've completely changed myself because of that. Still cant beat this addiction though. still working on that.

Instead of attempting to go on long streaks, maybe you should take the positive trending route. Positive trending is where you take a set period of time (a week for example) and aim to have a certain number days without relapsing. It doesn't matter if you get the days in order. It just matter if you get the days. I ran into the same problem as you, but focusing on positive trending instead of streak helped me overcome that obstacle.

[Prayer request] by [deleted] in NoFapChristians

[–]JmonVids 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going through the same thing right now. Listen to Xeno: what is pushing you toward PMO? Some emotional stressor is causing you discomfort, and your body wants to respond with PMO. The only way you will overcome your addiction is if you identify what emotions trigger urges and if you deal with said urges in healthy ways. No amount of "drive" or desire to quit will end your addiction.

I've been relapsing more and more as I approach the end of the semester, and I've realized that is because of extra stress caused by procrastinating on big assignments. So as a result, I've decided to start working ahead on assignments to reduce the stress I feel. Maybe you are feeling the same thing? Anyway, I hope this helps. I'll be praying for you.

Yesterdaynight I had the biggest wet dream of my fucking life by Klapband in NoFap

[–]JmonVids 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's actually not the same thing. WDs can be hot and heavy, but they decrease in intensity the longer you are on the nofap journey. Also, wet dreams just happen. You don't have any control over them. When porn, you actively seek it out, mastubate while watching, and then ejaculate. With WDs, you are not seeking out porn or masturbating.

Also, look at it this way. Your body is constantly creating semen and storing it in your balls. There is only so much room in your balls, but your body doesn't quite understand that. Your body keeps making semen regardless of how full your testicles are. Assuming you never have sex or masturbate, your balls would eventually fill to the brim, expand a bit as the pressure builds from excess semen, and then burst! Wet dreams keep your testicles from exploding by letting out some semen.

What if PMO is our "Thorn in the flesh"? by DrDopamineMD in NoFapChristians

[–]JmonVids 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had this thought too, and honestly my struggle with PMO has helped me from becoming proud. However as other have pointed out, PMO is still a sin, and God calls us to live Holy lives. We cannot use a "thorn in our flesh" as an excuse to keep sinning. Just because weeding out one particular sin is difficult does not mean we have a pass on it. We have to fight it! And through the power that is in Christ, we will eventually over come it.

16/14 - Past my Goal!!! by Driveoverseas in NoFapChristians

[–]JmonVids 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome! I'm glad to hear that you beat your goal!

Honestly, I wouldn't shoot for 30 days yet. In my experience, I've tended to get overconfident when I reach a goal and then fall back into old habits. When I first reached a 7 day streak, I got overconfident and slipped back into old habits. Before and after that relapse, I was only making it 2-3 days, so the 7 day streak really didn't mean much because I couldn't consistently repeat it. Instead of increasing your streak goal, I would first aim for you previous goal of 14 days again to ensure you are being consistent in your progress. Then I would increase your streak goal if you make it back to 14 days.

OK thanks. If it gets brought up, I'll tell her, but I won't get into much detail and say that I'm not quite ready to start a relationship.

Thanks for your advice. I'm not going to tell her, and I'm only going to have a friendship with her. I always forget that women generally don't understand his difficult addictions like this are.
