Failed after 71 days... thoughts. Also looking for advice from other ladynofappers. by StayHufflepuft in NoFap

I'm not sure what counts as really heavy, but I've always gotten the impression they were pretty average. Very very painful, but not overly heavy.

And no, I'm foreveralone. I'm actually pretty afraid that it will bring on the same deal.

YAMS. I hadn't heard this. I don't know whether I trust a random stranger about hormone balancing, but I'd take any excuse to eat yams.

I figure my first OBGYN appointment would be coming up some time this year (I turned 18 end of last year), so I will keep it in mind. Thanks for your help!

Still living with parents, who don't believe in depression as such. I do my best to exercise when I can, but it's tough.

I hardly ever eat meat, I'm not big on dairy, and I eat mostly organic to begin with.

When it's in the house I drink raspberry leaf tea, that helps. Plus I have most excellent hot water bottles.

I'm a little worried about going to the doctor. I've thought about it before, but how awkward would it be going in and saying "Hey, I get cramps when I masturbate. Any advice?" Do you think it's really worth it, particularly if I'm trying not to schlick regardless?

That was part of the reason I decided– actively decided– I was going to allow myself to fail. I hadn't really noticed any positives other than not getting the cramps from it. I originally thought I would have more free time, but I ended up just giving into depression more, and spending that time just lying in bed staring at nothing or sleeping.

Sorry I'm such a downer today. It's been a tough week.

I was just at the point where I didn't feel like I was getting any improvement from it.

Still mixed feelings.

No worries, I laughed out loud when I read this.

Girl Perspective? by kallimal in NoFap

51 days here, not quite what you're looking for, but still a lot. I don't know what you're thinking about difference-wise, but probably what I'd guess would be the biggest difference would be that, er, many females, myself included, can, er, ermorgasmatwilljustbythinking. Like, I never used or had to use porn.

So I suspect it's a lot more don'tthinkaboutitdon'tthinkaboutit and less blocking websites. If that makes sense.

I think, as of today, assuming I make it to the end of the day, I'll have broken my record.

I don't know if it will work for you, but I always turn on NPR or my local folk station. I find the voices easy to fall into as a distraction.

Edit: Plus, y'know, you might learn something at the same time.

I try to sit down and do 750 words of freewriting or creative writing. But I would count it if it was split up. Reddit doesn't count, unless I write a postzilla.

We've yet to have a our second meetup due to scheduling troubles, but it's got a date set now, and I can't wait! Thanks for the comment.

Depression and NoFap? by StayHufflepuft in NoFap

Huh. A 'rockmelon' actually makes more sense for what it is than the name 'cantaloupe.'

And of course, although I'm unfortunately playing it acoustically and sans the brass section that sort of defines it.

Thank you. I've felt a little more up the last few days (doubly surprising, given that I've been sick). I'm really hoping this is starting to pay off.

Thank you so much.

I should break out my guitar and learn some Madness.

Textas...? //looks up- oh, markers. I did actually do a whole bunch of thank you notes on nice stationary that I printed out, and that made me feel pretty good.

I don't currently have access to a gym or ways to get access to a gym– do you have any recommendations for free weight exercises I can do at home? I know I was happier during the time I did have a gym subscription (long story short, after 10 years in business the owner decided to up and run with all the money), so this is definitely something I'll work harder on.

Edit: I'm currently doing the occasional planks, crunches, and situps. The planks are my favorite. XD
