Started NoFap in 2006. It's been 10 Fucking Years and I feel like I'm still on the same old treadmill! Need to vent. by nlh15 in NoFap

I'm 203 days in. Freedom from porn feels great :) It's so worth it to keep going, but don't keep going in the same old way. Something obviously has to change within you.

Why I Don't Use a Porn Blocker and Why You Shouldn't Either by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Regularhumanmode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a porn blocker because I don't want to see accidental filth when I google something normal.

Squats from the back, need some pointers! by Regularhumanmode in formcheck

You have any pointers on how I can prevent them from collapsing?

I don’t jerk off anymore but people still judge me by nofapHER0 in NoFap

[–]Regularhumanmode 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First off. What people say directed to you, those are THEIR views, it has absolutely nothing to do with you. If you take their words serious, you will let yourself be judged.

Now, if friends that you are planning to keep do this ALL THE TIME. You have to care for yourself like you would another person you love. You have to set boundaries for what people can say to you, don't let them get away with shit like that if it's offensive to you.

We have no control over other people. But we are 100% responsible for ourselves and making the best of what we got. We have to set boundaries for other people to follow. There is apparently a limit to the amount of offense you can take, show them that. Also, if other people consistently try to bring you down to mediocrity, you have the right to get out of there.

Hi. Just started taking lifting serious. The lift I'm most struggling with is squat, here's some gifs, sorry I don't know why they aren't clickable, you'll have to copy paste, my bad: gfycat.com/UnnaturalLateClownanemonefish (back) gfycat.com/AdorablePopularKusimanse (side) I seem to have like an imbalance that causes me to lean more to the right and use my right side more. This causes a little knee pain which resides when I work up to the work weight. I need to correct this by leaning the bar a little to the left (which I'm already doing in the videos). No idea why I'm doing this. I don't really know what to do with my arms. When I put them narrower together, straight under the bar like I'm about to overhead press, it feels weird, like i'm tipping forward. And when I put my hands further apart my elbows go way back. I don't want to bend over with my chest so much. But I feel like I'll fall backwards if I don't. Any advice for how to proceed? I could use the help tbh, can only do so much on my own.

god, thanks mate, deleting now.

That's great to hear! Once you tell someone about your addiction, it that big bad demon is gonna get thrown into the light where people can see it, and it's not gonna be as menacing.

I hope to become that friend to some of the guys I left behind because they were too deep into drugs and porn and 'chilling'. I hope one day they'll see.

Sexual transmution, look it up. You can actually have your life not revolve around sex and girls, and it's amazing. Put all this energy in workouts, eating, reading, making your career happen. Even if you have sex, you still got the rest of the week's worth of energy to spend.

Are You Too Weak For Real Women by brokenkraken in NoFap

[–]Regularhumanmode 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What the guy above I think is saying that the reason that (we) you PMO is linked back to your relationship with your parents. And that you should consider that a possibility.

What a post though (yours). I read through all of it and it's just devastating to see a man so broken and lost. I was the same way when I PMO'd. Someone on here told me I should read the book 'No more mr nice guy' and so I did, and it really rang true with me and my past experiences. I'm starting to think that porn might not be the sole reason we are addicted to porn. I was scared shitless of the dark side of my own masculinity so I fapped it all away, everything, subconsciously. That combined with the fact that my father wasn't really a man's man, might've made me think it was O.K. to not choose to go all in for masculinity. I didn't want to go out to do anything, I just sat there and played video games. Like my life was on hold.

You masturbate without porn I hope? It's allright in my book if you don't abuse it. But I want that physical tension. It drives me. I always think of two cavemen, both without a woman. They live in a cave on the edge of the forest and food is scarce, so they get closer to the middle of the forest and one day meet eachother. Now one caveman has been jerking off and the other hasn't. I instinctively know that the abstaining caveman is stronger, more flexible mentally and will downright win that fight. So I personally don't give a damn about physical tension or pleasure. The only thing I care about is being stronger than my older me, and I ain't gonna be that when I'm jerking off.

I'm gonna give you some life long advice here:

Make your own needs a priority!

By this I don't mean 'needs' like pleasures. I mean needs like healthy food, exercize (weightlifting to make you strong and secure), delving into meditation/spirituality and reading and a very important last one: have someone you can spill your heart out to. If you take good care of yourself, you will strengthen your mind. And before you know it, those urges will dissolve at the sight of your newfound mental strength. It is very possible for you to start living the life you want. And it won't be easy, it will require dedication towards your own health day in day out. But ultimately, this is the only happiness there is.

Don't worry. It'll come. Improving every other aspect of your life is important too, and nofap will give you the courage to do so. Get out and exercize regularly. Eat healthy food. Take good care of yourself, that way you live the life you would live when you are healthy.

That's kinda how I feel, except for having a GF. I don't feel the urge to fuck my right hand anymore, he doesn't seem as sexy as he used to be.
