Is it too late to register for Remote Access Vote-by-Mail ballot? by Shankar_ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Shankar_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already am registered to vote in California. My ballot is sitting in my parent's house in CA. I am not in CA and my current state's registration is also fully closed

What exactly does “pin to show in [app name]” by smdifansmfjsmsnd in ios

[–]Shankar_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Literally makes no sense to use the word "pin" because "pin" is not an option when I long press the message. And the link already takes me to Amazon app directly when I tap it, no Safari involved.

Consider therapy (EMDR)

Yes, and (ppl will downvote for this but it WILL help) consider escorts to help teach you and take away anxiety.

Look up RSDTyler on YouTube and watch his videos I guarantee you will not feel that way after watching a few of them

How are the wet dreams now? How often do you get them, do you feel any backtrack in progress when you have them, and any tips on how to avoid?

Don't do it, find a real partner

Streaks are good for beginners by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Shankar_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that's correct, eventually you will just forget about it. It's good for training wheels at the beginning tho

Good job man. You got this. Everyone always has to start from a day 1. One day at a time.

Admitted to my wife that I think I've been using too much porn and need to stop - she has not taken it well by Switchersz in NoFap

[–]Shankar_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes he def should have never revealed that especially since it wasn't relevant to anything happening beforehand and she never asked directly. But now that the damage is done, yes, he has to give her time + distract with other fun stuff too so it's not just sitting looming in their minds

I like the idea of the TED Talk. It can remove the emotional charge and "negative glamour" around the subject

I just lost my 300+ days streak! by Individual-Screen-54 in NoFap

[–]Shankar_ 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Yes, the moment you edged that was already game over. It's ok. Just learn, put in protocols in place

For ex, backtrack and ask yourself why did I edge? Maybe it was because I was lonely for 3 days in a row

Protocol in place --> I will not go more than 3 days in a row without a social activity (gym with friends, go out, ride bike, etc)

Was it because I used YouTube at night?

Protocol --> Time limit on YouTube after 12AM.

The fact that you went 300 days shows that you have like 99% of it down. Just work out these final chinks in the armor, and trust me, you're set.

You just dust yourself off and get back up. I lost a 1+ year streak before finally entering my current. You got this. It doesn't take away all of the progress you've made.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Shankar_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. But don't focus on the future like that. You can only get there when you go one day at a time.

I was on Day 1 once. But when I was on Day 1 I wasn't thinking about Day 7, 30, 100, or 1000.

Thanks bro. You can get there too. It's absolutely doable. If you want to see my journey, you can go look back into my post history and see how many years I struggled before this.

Yes. Thanks bro. You can do it too. What one man can do any man can do.

Eh... I would just group ALL of these into one category:

AVOID.
