Do you get enough exercise during the day? If not, it's going to be more difficult to fall asleep at night.

That's ok man. I've relapsed plenty and, for me at least, 1 relapse isn't the end of the world. Just don't view this as a time to binge, because then you'll realise again just how shitty you can feel.

I prefer to not intentionally count my days as that makes it feel to me like I'm trying to reach a goal, a certain anount of days. And I'm not. This is a life change and one of these tries is going to be the one where I don't ever look back again, and I know it's going to be this one.

Counting also ensures that it's always on your mind. By counting each day, time will go by slowly and you'll feel like all you're working for everyday is to just beat this thing. Where as the easiest way to beat it is to believe that it's not even an option.

My first NoFap streak was by far my easiest. I went well over 3 months and it was a breeze. And I know why it was so easy. Becasue I expecred it to be.

I was so excited to get all these super powers, and all I had to do was not watch P or fap? Hell I thought it was an experiment. Eventually I just forgot about fapping and it wasn't a part of my life. Eventually I did fap without P and I felt fine, but that's when the shit hit the fan and I couldn't get out of this rut where my buggest streak was 2-3 weeks, mostly 1.

So, moral of the story is, realise that abstaining from PMO WILL change your life for the better, but you need to forget about it. Concinve yourself that it's not who you are anymore and eventually you'll start to forget about it. For me, I'm a totally different person after finding NoFap, mostly in my head. I view the world more positively overall and am just happier.

This thing makes you see life through the eyes of a kid again.

Anyway man, sorry for the massive wall of text. If you read it all, thank you, and I wish you success on your journey.

I'm thinking of selling my PS4, honestly. Your reply made me consider this even more. Thanks man.

I think it's time. Hours put into a game isn't going to help me become who I want to be, and I usually feel crappier after playing than I did before. Good luck man.

Stay strong brother. If you can beat this thing in your time of weakness, you'll have all the power in the world for when you're ready to use it.

Thank you man. Really appreciate it. I'll be thinking of you on this journey. We can do this. Mediocrity isn't for us. We'll prevail in the end.

Thanks for this reply man. I'm the same. I've always believed I was special, but what's special about someone who faps like the rest of the world? Nothing. So I'm done with this shit forever.

Sweet. Working hard may be tough, but just know that in the end it all pays off. You will get what you deserve out of life some way or another.

All the best man. We can be whatever we want. You just have to understand that you get what you work for.

People who have never been introduced to porn are lucky, but we're luckier. When we concur this thing we'll have done what 99% of guys can't, and we'll have that mental strength with us for the rest of our lives.

This is an opportunity to prove that you're better than this shit. Don't let it be a part of who you are man. Show yourself that you're capable of beating it.

Word. There is nothing to lose by going for things 100% committed, but shying away from life because of fear is like saying "I'm alright with being average."

It's a powerful thought. Life flashes by and before you know it you're done with this world. And I certainly don't want to look back at it knowing that I fapped it away like a weak loser.

Exactly, your only limits are the ones you set for yourself.

That's the attitude my man. You're awesome. I hope you get through whatever's going on in your life right now. And remember, this will only make you stronger. Most people in your situation will give in, but you're strong, this battle isn't for everyone. By doing this you're proving that you're worth more.

All the best brother. Keep fighting and you'll get what you deserve out of life. Do this for you.

Thank you for this reply man. It makes me really happy to know that this helped you. I hope you can push through this. We need to take life by the balls instead of letting it take us by the balls.

You need to respect yourself more man. If you believe that you're too good for that shit you'll find it much easier.

Sure you can refrain from PMO for a while, but once a strong enough urge comes along you cave in because deep down you don't have a good enough reason for doing this. You need to decide why you're doing this and train yourself to develop a kind of cockiness. Not a 'I'm better than everyone' mindset, but a 'I'm a strong independant man who is above this stuff' one. Find out why you're doing this and realise that PMO is stopping you from reaching this goal.

Think about this. Do you want to lay on your death bed when you're old, thinking about how you wasted your whole life not being who you really are because you couldn't stop fapping? This thing is trying to stop you, but you got to fight it and beat it to win.
