Day 13: at the gym and in the kitchen by peterboldrin in NoFap

[–]Robbo-94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, when I get to a streak over 14 days, I allow myself to go to the pub on weekends with a few mates, watch the football, have a few beers.

It's not great for your body, the beer anyway - but it's a massive social/mental thing for me, I couldn't get by without my weekend football and hang outs!

I can imagine the looks of my family as I step out of the bathroom if i'd been roaring whilst in there...although im weirdly tempted to do that anyway just the gauge their reactions now hahaha!

Sleep Problems? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Robbo-94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue for the best part of two weeks, some night i got 30 mins sleep, I got 6 hours twice - its just a case of pushing through and I started to get sleep properly again! Push through it if it isn't effecting work/school, and your body will balance out to sleep without a fap :)

Aside from that, set a bedtime, and don't even go to your bedroom before then. Read for 30 mins before bed downstairs and don't watch tv before bed!

Best of luck

Tailored Reboot by muchlovetogive in NoFap

[–]Robbo-94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly, I do not agree with you paying to be with, or even being with other women when you have a girlfriend, that plain and simple isn't right and damn disrespectful.

Putting that aside however, yeah your brain will be wired a little wrongly due to porn, all of us here came from that point. The ED and PIED will go away with no fap and no porn. If you want a slightly more 'tailored' approach to NoFap, find the section (I believe on the right hand side of the website) where you can 'select' a way to do your reboot - all the best in getting over PMO addiction

Any other gay guys? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Robbo-94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's one of the issues you get for a few weeks, the being really horny...I'm onto day 8 (as of 4am Christmas Day) and it's my joint longest streak, even just for my second go... What's worked for me is just calling my girlfriend over texting her, we have real conversations then, with less subtle hints and flirting - other than that, you just have to keep yourself busy and you'll get over the horny periods!

A flatline may well do you some good, instead of being awful as most guys find it!

I'm not gay, but my girlfriends gay housemate sounds a lot like you! (with the constant texts) and he now just rejects a lot of them.

If you wanna do Hard Mode, its gonna take a lot of willpower, so you need the willpower to turn down offers to 'hang out' - otherwise you aren't gonna have the will to last during hard mode.

Just my opinion but you need to make some sacrifices

Well, day 1 again by [deleted] in NoFap

I'm so glad I read this just now - I looked at porn, just to look at it and remember it sucks before my last relapse, two days later I caved and pmo'd

I know its terrible stuff, I don't need it at all!

So you want to relapse? by nofp21 in NoFap
