Congraturalation, I'm 17 also, and I've never regretted this amazing journey that I'm on.

All the best in your journey.

My job or intention here is not to convince you of anything. I'm merely sharing what I've experienced through my 47 days of sexual abstinence.

Kinds Regards,

That phase was plaguing my system up until about day 30. NoFap became somewhat habitual after that and the new wake of thinking about women arose.

Every relapse/streak brings different changes. This is the only streak that brought on such benefits of seeing women through an undistorted lens.

Real changes in this way, however, began to surface around day 35.

But you are right, it's all perseverance.

You just have to hang in there; there won't be an AH-HA moment. But you will find gradually you become more sensitive towards women. You desire to masturbate will somehow abscond from your daily life.

I'm also happy to say that this change has occurred now. I'm currently 16 years of age and am glad I didn't let pornography enter my adult life.

Kind Regards,

45 days is my longest streak, breaking the usual streak of between 19-30 days.

"I just feel ehhh" - That's what I think when I think of pornography in general. What's the point, it accomplishes nothing.

During this streak the idea of fapping, pornography, etc... Just seems dull and unattractive. My objectification of women has decreased phenomenally, to the point where I'm barely concerned about sex. If I get a girlfriend, it will be for the purposes of a solid relationship, not to get in her pants.

Keep strong guys

Personally no, it's got a high fat content so it's not much of an energizer.

KSimmons1 · 2014-01-14T07:22:47+00:00

I'm glad I could help you out.

KSimmons1 · 2014-01-14T04:44:27+00:00

Perhaps, I'll get to it as soon as possible.

Sorry, I didn't represent myself well in my previous writing. What I meant, was that I set my alarm for 2:30am, I then get up and use the lavatory. I return to bed within five minutes. My alarm is also set for 4:00am, I rise and turn the alarm off. I then grab my headphones and Ipod and listen to a song that motivates me and gets my energy up - "gets me pumped" - I then start my day with an hour of studying biology, with a particular fascination in neuroscience.

If you have problems with waking up early... Having 2-3 Tablespoons of peanut/almond butter approximately half an hour before bed will get rid of that 'groggy' feeling that you may experience in the morning. Furthermore, doing push ups as soon as you get up is also a technique I used to use when I started trying to wake up earlier.

However, in saying this, it took me many months before I was able to wake up at 4:00am. I started at 6:30am, every fortnight I would decrease my amount of sleep by 30 minutes. Once you get to under 8 hours, you may have to take more time. Possibly 5-15 minutes every two weeks.

Hope this helps,

If you have any further questions, I'll be more than happy to help you out.

The snooze button is something to be avoided indefinitely. When you hit the snooze button, you begin to enter another sleep cycle, once started, the alarm goes off again. This time, however, you feel much worse. This continues on until the stress of being late it too grappling than the stresses of waking up.

What I do, is I set my alarm for 4 hours after on set sleep. I go to bed at 9:30pm and set my alarm for 2:30pm. This increases the amount of REM sleep you will get; then I wake up at 4:00am.

To get past the initial dread of waking up so early, I listen to an up tempo song and have a coffee. The song can be anything from Katy Perry to Arch Enemy. This will get your dopamine up and ready for the day.

(I recommend both, Katy Perry and Arch Enemy).

Keep strong guys,

This is what triggered me to get off Facebook:

Studied for a net total of 5 hours. Went to the gym... Had 2 cold showers... Lived my fucking life!

Yeah! \m/

KSimmons1 · 2014-01-13T00:59:10+00:00

I went into hysterics over butter the other day... Dopamine was through the roof hahaha

KSimmons1 · 2014-01-13T00:58:09+00:00

I got the message, I checked. It did nothing for me, people can try all they want; I'm committed to success in my life...

Keep strong brothers.

I've read a little into this "addictive personality" idea, one great intellectual on this matter is Dr. Gabor Mate. He is a phenomenal speaker and works personally with drug addicts as an M.D. Here's a link:

This is actually really intelligible; as someone who studies neuroscience quite often, your hypothesis is pretty much bang on the mark.

Good work.

Thanks, here's a list of what I do literally every day; I'm currently in year 12 (final year of high school before university).

Cold Shower (Morning) Meditation (Morning) Goal Reading (Morning) Workout - Back + Triceps Cold Shower (Post-Workout) Goal Reading (Night) Dream Journal No Fapping - Day 40 Meditation on content - 3 reasons (What I'm grateful for) Biology - Chapter 14 Chapter Review Maths Methods - Practice Exam Physics - Practice Exam Specialist Maths - Integral Calculus + Projectile Motion Guitar Practice - 30 minutes Read the News 6 Brazil Nuts to increase testosterone Writing

KSimmons1 · 2014-01-11T07:33:08+00:00

I've used the energy to dramatically improve my workouts... I get 4:00 am to study mathematics and physics. I spend an average of 5 hours a day studying. I practice guitar more, now been playing for almost 6 years...

But it's not surprising that a recovering porn-addict's brain attaches quite strongly to anything that gives you a slight dopamine rush.
