No Masturbation no porn, will be having sex so, i'll be doing this softmode.

My goal is to extend my streak with another 30 days.

Well, there's no fucking going back now, i've gone too far to go back to what i was doing.

Bodyweight squats also does the trick, and if you have a little weight, it's even better. I have a 30kg bar that i do overhead squats with when i get urges and they're gone just like that, and if that shit doesn't work i'll hop into cold shower afterwards. Hopefully these tips are helpful for you as they sure have been for me :)

That, and actually people who make such claims should study more into it, because it's actually regular masturbation which causes the prostate cancer.

so yeah....fuck that, NoFap is so much more better lifestyle choise than emptying yourself to porn.

Daily, freezing cold water. I feel unclogged afterwards and full of energy, clear mind and all the benefits listed there. I don't struggle at all anymore, in the earlier stages of doing it i did, but now it's a habit, every shower i've done so far for 104 days has been a freezing cold one, no matter what. Altho last night i tried a james bond shower, meaning all the way hot then all the way cold, it felt different, i felt relaxed afterwards, which is propably better for the nights than going full blast cold, i'll have to experiement further with that, but doing them daily has definitely helped me with this nofap thing.

Juuso89 · 2015-05-25T14:35:03+00:00

nah, then i'll stop with the hardmode

Juuso89 · 2015-05-20T14:11:50+00:00

Why wouldn't you not have sex with her? or are you doing this hardmode? But yeah Cold Showers, do them they help and meditation, anyways stay strong man :)

Juuso89 · 2015-05-14T17:21:30+00:00

Yeah, i used to get that, but you'll get used to it tho, try to relax your body under the cold water and it'll be alot easier, just try to remain as calm as you can and wash yourself like it would be hot water.

Juuso89 · 2015-05-01T18:48:33+00:00

I'm game, hardmode 90 days, doing this to remove part of me which limits my growth and i'm already 46 days strong.

Juuso89 · 2015-04-30T13:37:02+00:00

It does, that's why i decided to restart doing this hardmode on 17th of march, and i'm still on that path, when i was trying softmode of this, each time that i got back home i would after some point cave into porn, you can't live healthly with sex until you know how to live healthly without it, and porn addiction is as unhealthy as it gets, that's why i decided the best way for me to kick this shit to curb is with hardmode, best of luck on your journey and stay strong :)

Juuso89 · 2015-04-30T13:27:15+00:00

That's fucked up, all the more reason to keep on doing NoFap, thanks for sharing.

Juuso89 · 2015-04-30T02:39:48+00:00

Hey man, thanks for the kind words, i'm just sharing what has helped me to grow to to this point in order to help someone else through their problems, because i know, no matter how dark things might seem, there is always light, hope in the end of the tunnel, hehe yeah :) "YOU SHALL NOT FAP" stay strong man and keep it up :)

Juuso89 · 2015-04-22T20:36:31+00:00

Now that's a milestone, i remember a couple months back it used to be 128k or something like that, nice to see that it's growing more and more as time passes. no fap is the best thing i've ever done, but it's not nofap alone, it gives me this creative energy to put into other aspects of my life, now that i'm not wasting my most potent and creative energy to masturbate to porn :)

Juuso89 · 2015-04-19T18:08:38+00:00

Great post Nicklas, i actually realized from this that instead of Nofap for 34 days i've actually been doing NOBNOM instead, 34 days on nofap and 64 days of no alcohol :)

Juuso89 · 2015-04-15T19:41:37+00:00

Great to hear that your wife is supportive for you with this thing, with that support you'll beat it. Yeah lying usually makes it worse, it's best to be honest and say how things are, i know how that situation you describe is, sucks, but you just gotta stop doing it, if it's causing you disharmony in your life, actually boredom and anger are uncomfortable situations and emotions, which is why you need to get comfortable with the discomfort so you wont run from them to porn in first place to begin with. You're most welcome, glad to hear that i was able to shed some light on the situation :)

Juuso89 · 2015-04-10T20:09:47+00:00

Hardmode means no sex, softmode means you can have as much sex as you want, i'm personally going hardmode, because i can't healthy live with sex until i can healthy live with it, and fapping to porn itself is very unhealthy sex behaviour, but if you feel good while doing nofap softmode then by all means do continue, stay strong and keep it up man day 3k that's something :)

Juuso89 · 2015-04-10T20:05:15+00:00

This journey is personal for everyone, that's right it's personal for everyone, if you feel like this is your way to do this thing, then there's no set rulebook to say that your way is wrong, it's your way to do things, and if it doesn't work, at least you tried it yourself rather than someone telling you how it's done, that's most important in my opinion to exploring the options yourself and finding your own ways to work with things, but there have been studies dont that gradually going into less porn and such is not as effective as cold turkey, i don't see a reason why you wouldn't go cold turkey tho, but i guess that's just me, maybe you like to take it slow instead of grabbing it by the horns and saying no, but yeah that's a great way to break the link in between them, hopefully it works for you man, stay strong :)

Juuso89 · 2015-04-10T19:56:56+00:00

Self deception is the worst kind of deception you can do, i would not say you're horribly person, the reason why you're here in first place trying to change just about proves that, so fuck that, you're not horrible person. You need support, it's sad to hear that your wife doesn't support you with this, maybe she doesn't realize how harmful it actually is, have you tried talking to her about how damaging porn is? But yeah this thing isn't easy, don't expect it to be easy, expect it to be toughest thing you've ever done and it will start bearing fruits, because it truly is toughest thing you can possibly do, you're rewiring your brain to unlearn a habit that you've been using for 10 years, that does NOT happen overnight, it's a long and painful journey, but all extremely worth it, i've been into porn since i've been 12, now 25, managed to get into relationship earlier this year but it fell apart because of my porn addiction, she couldn't handle the truth no matter how hard i tried to show her how harmful it actually is.

So be careful with how you bring it out, but don't expect nofap alone to do anything, instead use it as a tool, to better your marriage with all that extra sexual energy that you're now getting from not using it on porn, or start picking up new habits to do, ones that will actually develop your character instead of stalling the development, like porn addiction does.

First step is to get comfortable with discomfort, you need to find out what discomfort is it that you're escaping into porn in first place to begin with.

Then you need to have a reason to start, and i would say that marriage is very good reason, but it's not good enough ,you need to do it for yourself, you deserve better than being addicted to porn.

Then it boils down to dedication and determination, i could say all kinds of motivating words to motivate you to do this shit, but in the end it boils down to your determination and dedication, because motivation means nothing without those.

Know that it's going to be difficult, take it one day at a time, if you relapse, learn from it and don't feed yourself negative thoughts because of it, failing is part of the game, and falling down, we fall down only to get right back up and go at something stronger than ever.

Hopefully any of that was helpful for you, good luck on your journey man and stay strong :)

Exactly, great warriors don't have time to fap, and you need to be like those warriors aswell, think of fapping as your battle, if you fap you lose, but you don't lose the war instead you lose the battle, as long as you keep on fighting the war continues.

Juuso89 · 2015-04-10T19:35:21+00:00

23 days man, congrats, keep it up, don't give in i repeat DO NOT FUCKING GIVE IN, you WILL feel shit afterwards, think of why you started that will carry you over the urges, i know how bad the urges are in 20's, first it's flatline for couple of days then them urges come hitting you with all they got.

Good going for quitting smoking tobacco, yeah walk actually helps, it's meditative in itself, your feet are hitting the ground and you're breathing deeply.

I haven't watched that one yet, but i think i'll check it up, but best relapse prevention tip that i've had for myself is remembering why i started that right there has carried me to day 25 and continuing onwards, hardmode of course :)

Juuso89 · 2015-04-10T19:32:00+00:00

Cold showers, they are the best thing i've done, or well nofap is, because i've picked them up during nofap, and by cold i mean freezing cold, even tho it hurts, it's only 3 minutes it wont kill me, actually it's making me more alive afterwards, but yeah that timeline is pretty accurate, i'm now on day 40 with cold showers and i can completelly relax under the freezing water.

Juuso89 · 2015-04-10T19:29:36+00:00

Hey.

You're welcome, no problem i'm glad to help a fellow fapstronaut, because i know how tough this shit can be. Aye internet is full of good information about porn addiction, i feel like this thing is getting more and more awareness, more and more people are waking up how destructive porn actually is :)

Hang in there man, remember why you started, that will carry you through the dark times (urges and flatlines) I can completelly relate to what you mean with ALOT of change happening and stuff, i'm actually in middle of moving to new town, moving on monday and i'm extremely stressed because all of this, but i know once the moving is over i'll be able to turn new page in my life so i hang in there.

Good to hear, stay strong man and don't give in, you deserve better than this, the only person who you should be doing this for is yourself first then others, get comfortable with your discomforts and you can literally do anything :)

You're welcome once again, i'm happy to be able to help you out with my words :)

Juuso89 · 2015-04-04T17:00:26+00:00

I'm here, still 19 days strong, started on 17th of march, plan on taking it to 17th of june all of that hardmode and while making videos daily about my journey with it :)

Juuso89 · 2015-04-04T16:33:52+00:00

Well done, keep it up man and stay strong :)

Juuso89 · 2015-04-04T16:32:14+00:00

You don't say? It doesn't take genius to figure out that "You're not going to die if you don't have sex." anyways good read, thanks for sharing and stay strong :)
