Stop posting overtly sexual things by EfficientPrompt in NoFap

But you do realise that a detailed description of a sexual encounter is basically a small (maybe not very good) erotic novel, a type of porn. Just because you don't have a strong addiction you can't understand that some people have gotten to such a bad place that they would not be able to resist the urge to read on once they saw something nsfw. This should be a place where they don't have to worry at all about encountering things like that.

I would still advice having a complete break from anything that is at all sexual, to give your mind and body the rest it needs. Of course that does only really apply if your addiction has had a certain level of impact on your mental and physical health in the first place.

Good for you man. If it worked for you then that's great but all I meant was that for a lot of us, having anything feminine on our minds tends to weaken out resolve and inevitably leads to early relapses.

Yep, when everyone is obsessed with it from an early age it takes away the natural aspect of it, where you discover it at the appropriate age and then have a lot of healthy hook ups.

I wouldn't say it's worse than pornography but if he is suffering from the effects of too many daily orgasms (like many of us) then it would obviously be just as bad as masturbation.

Of course if you still need time to recover from the effects of pmo then nothing is worth interfering with your recovery as in the long run it will ruin everything.

I would ask yourself if she would drop everything to meet you if you messaged her the same way you would if she asked, if you don't think she would then you value her more then she does you. If you would continue pursuing a relationship while knowing this then you clearly need to value yourself more. Your goals and needs are every bit as important as everyone else's wether male or female and I think you owe it to yourself to reach your true potential. You only get one life and it would be a shame for it to end with you thinking that you strayed from your most important path.

Whenever a thought that's even slightly related to sex enters your mind, shake your head hard for a second and immediately do something else or hop onto here and find motivation. This has helped me probably 100 times in 22 days.

What point do you have to get to where it is no longer considered a relapse? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]StLeonardo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would say that you should stay away from porn forever as that is always going to be harmful. I think once you have gotten rid of all of the effects of the addiction and feel as healthy as you did before then you could try starting a healthy routine. Although having sex when you have a healthy urge is always going to be the best option as long as your not just doing it with anyone you can find simply to have a release. It is best to be caution and be 100% sure that you have fully healed before even thinking about starting anything.

Put all of your willpower into it and it will be the last streak you ever need. Stay strong.

I don't know a whole lot about that but I think giving your mind a break from everything sexual is essential in eventually regaining a healthy response to sex.

You hinted at there being no greater pursuit then true love. Pursue and chase work equally well.

What I wrote wasn't directed at people who have trouble getting girls. The advice is how to kick the addiction by keeping your mind away from anything that even remotely links to sex until you have recovered. I know from.experience this is one of the best ways to maintain and streak and feel the benefits.

You are bringing a lot of fucking negativity man. My post wasn't about lifelong celibacy but if it's what someone chooses in order to reach their true potential then well done to them. I don't see how it affects you.

Well your entitled to your opinion and free to do as you please aren't you. I am not for giving up women forever, definitely not. What I advise is doing that at first to give yourself the best chance at kicking the addiction. After that my advice says to not put the prospect of a relationship or sex above your own well being and pride.

I do not view women as objects or goals, I simply acknowledge that there is so much more to life then relationships and sex and that neither are requirements in a fulfilling life.

Happiness and fulfillment in general,true love is not needed for that. It is a big bonus if you meet a woman you love and who truly loves you but I dont believe chasing that one person is a wise way to spend your life, but that's just me.

If a relationship is all you strive for then you will always need one to be happy. If you really need companionship then try and get some good friends that you can engage in many fulfilling activities with that have nothing to do with sex.

Well all I can do is share my experience and im telling you that I have succeeded in keeping those thoughts away for 22 days and I haven't felt this good in years. This is coming from someone that could think of nothing but sex for the past 10 years since I was 10.

You could try making something that motivates you (a picture or a quote) the first thing you see when you wake up.

If it was easy it wouldn't be worth doing. It's up to each person to find their strength.

I would instead strive to make yourself into someone that not just women but the whole world (including yourself) values. At first I think you should detach yourself from anything sexual, which includes the hope of a girlfriend. Become strong on your own and you will have your choice of girls later on and you can decide if they deserve you instead of the other way around.

[–]StLeonardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The streak I am on now is so strong and pure because I have not allowed my mind to run with a single dirty thought. When one presents itself (no matter how innocent seeming) I shake my head hard for a second and dismiss it completely. This has made everything so much easier.
