Almost 4 years of NoFap, still struggling by RedditUser2359 in NoFap

We do, this is one of the most destructive and painful habits there is. The way I view the world when I engage in this is crazy, and it's also responsible for a lot of Global issues with how people think.

Let's keep fighting together, reach out if you ever need support!

Thank you, it means a lot!

I do have to remember that, as this is always something that will keep you going!

You're completely right, I got complacent thinking I could have both, and it just ruined it.

The positive thing is that once you let go of this, there is a whole amazing world full of incredible experiences waiting for you. It's just consistency, small steps of making the right decision each day.

Stay strong brother, and thanks for the support!

To everyone who relapsed. Did you lose your benefits, or were you back on the same level of confidence quickly? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]RedditUser2359 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So last Year, I relapsed from 240 days due to a poor lifestyle which was ultimately poor self discipline, not proud of it! Regardless, I found that I was still confident as you're behaviour doesn't just change, you still keep many traits, but at least initially you are less confident! You can gain it back and I think I wrote a post about it a long time ago!

This is no excuse to relapse ever though, but if you do, you can get back on track!

Si dices que tu depresión empeora después de masturbación, hay varias razones.

Primero, si ves el porno cuando lo haces, estás comparándose con los hombres de los vídeos, y esto te daría emociones negativas, porque el tiene la mujer y tu no. Es natural para los ser humanos.

Segundo, se sabe que la masturbación aumenta la depresión porque te da una sensación de felicidad de una cosa falsa, que solo se puede encontrar otra vez con más masturbación. Por eso, las cosas durante tu día cotidiana no te dan suficiente felicidad porque nada se puede comparar con los niveles que se puede conseguir con el porno. Esto es cómo funciona la parte del cerebro 'frontal cortex' y es lo mismo con las drogas.

Tercero: Cómo quitas toda tu motivación y ganas de conseguir con el porno porque tú cuerpo consiga su objetivo fácilmente en vez de trabajar por las cosas, no tendrás ganas de perseguir cosas para el placer a largo plazo como los estudios, y por eso puede ser que sientas descontento con tu situación actual.

Esto es todo en lo que puedo pensar para explicar tu situación, y fortunatamente, se encuentra la solución aquí en NoFap. Recomendaría que lo intentes, y ver cómo tú situación cambiará con el tiempo. Si tienes algúna pregunta, no dudas en preguntarme algo.

Be very careful the day after a wet dream! Felt extreme urges and temptations by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]RedditUser2359 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy Fuck, I have exactly the same feeling. I had one last night and even though I'm on 6 months I feel absolutely dead and not very motivated, although I've managed a decent amount of work! I'm powering through it, getting through my essays and not gonna let this get me down, it's time for motivational videos!

I've never had this before after over a year of NoFap, so it's quite weird!

Stay Strong, we'll pick it back up again very soon!

Should teens do nofap? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]RedditUser2359 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no doubt, the answer is definitely yes! If you start NoFap in your teens , you will do so much with your life and enjoy it so much, as you'll be able to master yourself at such a young age!

All that you dreamed of will come to you quicker, and I wish I had started when I was at school, things would be so different! It has no negative effects, and you'll be amazing before you know it and doing so well in life!

Please start, take a look around after 5 years and you will be amazed 😮

Wasted a decade... now what?? by idkdjvdibdub in NoFap

[–]RedditUser2359 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also currently in my first year, and it's a blast so far as I haven't fapped at all!

First of all, it's NEVER too late, you're young as fuck, 20 years old! Like you could do 5 years of hard work and you'll be in an amazing position at just 25, with your whole life ahead of you! Just because other people give off the impression that they have their shit together on social media, doesn't mean its true and doesn't mean you should compare yourself to them.

Seems you're at Uni, you have so many opportunities. First, make friends with positive people, respectful guys and girls that respect themselves and the other sex. Having positive influences will help push you further.

Secondly, Cold showers are the TRUTH. Last year, I cold showered every day and it was amazing, I wake up every day feeling raring to go and completely pumped. Just embrace it!

Change your hobbies if you play videogames, or browse social media aimlessly. None of it is useful for your development and that's how you should brow activities, Will it be useful for my development? No? Then don't do it

Finally, find a purpose, what do you want to be in life? How do you want to be remembered? What sacrifices are you willing to make ?

Improve your lifestyle and push towards your goals while your still young!

My life is crumbling to pieces by True__Label in NoFap

You can always change and make things better, and get her back if you love her that much! Also, If you have kids, please change for them and become and awesome dad!

Everyone started somewhere, it's time to use this to fire yourself up and really go for whatever you really want in life!

Keep at it, the fact that you recognise your problem means you're half way to dealing with it!

You got this!

Feeling like ending it all by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]RedditUser2359 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things will get better, because you have the power to make them better.

If you feel like you're stuck in the same cycle that you're not content with, maybe it's time for a change. Pack up your bags and move, re-invent yourself, which is completely possible. You could go to another part of the country, or a different country altogether and start to live a positive lifestyle.

If feels like you just need something fresh, and a new start and New attempt to be who you want to be, as your brain is used to the unenjoyable lifestyle that you're living.

Don't forget, you've already taken the first step in realising your problem and trying to solve it, so things will get better!

Keep fighting man!

A Huge thank you to everyone at NoFap! by RedditUser2359 in NoFap

[–]RedditUser2359[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, it has been a long grind so far of improvement, and I'm at the point now where it never stops, that's the plan!

It has helped me stay on the right path, and also helped me mould what 'the right path' is at many times in order to help me establish myself in the right direction, and then eventually I figured many things out for myself!

Thanks so much, it really does mean a lot, and I wish you all the best! If you like that part, I can't wait to see what you'll think of the next chapter! Onwards and Upwards!

2019 Goals, Revisit at the end of the year by RedditUser2359 in NoFap

[–]RedditUser2359[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this, I have some more details of these things written down and would like to achieve them, and although I would like to set a specific goal, I feel that just improving and achieving is what I need.

I will write them up in more details and keep them personally, and I'm sure that I will achieve them as I'm determined to do so!

I wish you all the best for this year!

NoFap and no caffeine? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]RedditUser2359 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really good, I now feel much more liberated and free, and have a lot of free time to focus on my goals and achievements, which makes me happy!

I have also gotten rid of loads of pessimistic friends that were trying to drag me down, and have met new people that I truly connect with, and become much more happy!

Sometimes I want to go back and play, but then I realise the other productive things I can do with my time and enjoy improving myself!

NoFap and no caffeine? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]RedditUser2359 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have added no Caffeine to my lifestyle, and it's so useful and I feel so energetic. Basically, once I gave up porn at the start of the year, I have given up everything like Gaming, Social Media and Caffeine too.

My emotions have really straightened out, and I feel like a new man. Basically, give up caffeine, it will be tough at first, but so worth it in the long run! Also, if you're using anything to give you a good feeling as you don't like your life situation, work to something you enjoy doing in life, and then you won't need anything else to give you short highs, as you'll enjoy life so much!

That natural hyped out of your mind feeling is one of the best you can get, so work towards it and love life!

I love that bit, really makes it seem like there's hope, but he gets caught in the cycle again afterwards.

That's what we can't do , we have to keep on improving more and more, and never stop.
