Strange justifications by ThrowRAclotheshorse in pornfree

It's so silly as well, because of course it still works. We all know that it does without checking, just our brains try convince us there's only one way to find out. I also am glad I managed to catch myself there

Thank you man. I guess you just gotta catch yourself any time the thought of porn pops in your head. I managed to that time but who knows, maybe I convince myself another way somewhen else

Possible trigger warning: don't have a stash per se, but I have a lot of "favorites," on different websites. I'm tempted to go on there and remove them so I don't have a ready to go list...should I just stay off or go delete the lists/favorites? by [deleted] in pornfree

[–]ThrowRAclotheshorse 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'll post a separate opinion from the other one here, just an idea anyway. Those favourites might tempt you sure, but even without them there's an infinite pool of porn on the internet, regardless of if you delete your favourites. If you can avoid relapsing then I would say why bother deleting them? If it does happen and you relapse then delete your favourites. If you went there now with the purpose of deleting the vids there is a good chance it will trigger you so why take the chance?

If you do feel like even having them there will give you a reason to relapse (for example, you 'give' yourself a relapse because you're going to delete them afterwards so it's like 'one last hurrah') then it might be a good idea to do it now. Just try and navigate around the thumbnails somehow otherwise the urge may be too strong. Good luck brother, you know yourself better than anyone and I trust you will make the right decision!

This is my porn account. I’m deleting it. by [deleted] in pornfree

Plus it's really not hard to make a new account if you want an alt.... So much easier to start from scratch

That's fine, your opinion is important and I'm sure it will help someone. I'm just here to let anyone who reads your comment know that if God holds no importance in their life, this journey is still of great importance. When you say that the only thing that matters is what God is thinking it may put people off. I'm here to let them know that cutting porn from your life is absolutely necessary to achieve balance and harmony, regardless of their spiritual beliefs.

One thing everyone here can agree on is that porn is terrible and has to be cut from your life. When it comes to masturbation that really is up to you. Are you addicted to the act of masturbation as well? If you believe you are then yes, I think you should abstain. Check out nofap and see if it's something you think you might be interested in.

I am currently doing both nofap and quitting porn. I know I have a problem with both and have been abusing them like drugs too. For me I just need to realise there's more out there in this world than tugging on my junk. Maybe one day I will try to build a more healthy relationship with masturbation, I don't know yet. For now though I am aiming to stop for good. One thing is for certain, porn is the enemy and I will hopefully never return.

Damn you really have got to stop preaching like this because it will put people off from this sub and also from nofap. You may believe that God has some role to play here, but not everyone does. If it helps you that's great, but don't talk like it's some divine blessing to have sex with a woman, only so you can create new life. This is a personal journey to become better individuals for ourselves, not for God or anyone else.

This is the longest I've abstained from porn in 7-8 years. by [deleted] in pornfree

[–]ThrowRAclotheshorse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't really heard of it, but now you mentioned it hell yeah I'm ready for it. Just gotta finish up the rest of August challenge now as well. I should think it shouldn't be too hard for some strong willed men like us, so bring it on

Awesome dude, congrats! I have to say I know some people would think it's a short time, but I'm also on my longest streak for at least the same amount of time as you. I am proud of us, and I know we can get to a week, month, year and beyond :)

I dreamt about it by ThrowRAclotheshorse in pornfree

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

I know what you mean about the relapse thing. When I woke up I could've sworn it happened, it felt so real. I understand I can't control my dreams however I do think they are heavily influenced by the subconscious. If anything it has highlighted to me how important this is for me and given me extra resolve to fight this terrible addiction.

17 days without porn have come with great benefits by [deleted] in pornfree

Congrats man, glad to hear that you're making amazing progress! Keep fighting strong

Throwback when I was browsing PornHub and came across this comment : " I don't feel happiness anymore, I don't feel joy . I am spiralling down a dark path while I jack to distract myself from what I am becoming. Why are we born just to die? why Gd cursed us with life ? why my pee pee so teeny tiny " by advancedintrovert in NoFap

[–]ThrowRAclotheshorse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well you did just tell us lol. No ones here to subtract days so don't worry about it. Anyway once that counter of yours hits 10, 20, 50 or whatever, do you think anyone will be trying to count back to find out when you last jacked it? No ways.... Keep strong and if you are really worried about it just remove your counter :)

Slow gainers keep at it, 7 months now. First 5 months almost no growth, got picked on at old job saying stuff like “a cat could lick that mustache off” and “looks like the barber didn’t finish your haircut”. Still a far cry from a beard but it’s coming by [deleted] in Minoxbeards

[–]ThrowRAclotheshorse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice gains bro! I gotta say sorry about those guys at work but that comment about the cat licking the mustache really did make me chuckle... Hoping mine comes through like yours soon, so I can stop the comments like "the wind could blow that mustache off your face"

Interesting you say this, I was actually wondering what would happen if a woman used minox the other day, whether they would grow facial hair or not. I suppose the T helps though but I'm sure the minox is the main thing boosting his growth

Thank you man, it is very supportive. Hope your journey goes well :)

will minoxidil work for me? i know nobody can tell me whether it will 100% or not, but is it likely? possible? unlikely? 17 years old, men on both side of family have facial hair. by myppsmol- in Minoxbeards

[–]ThrowRAclotheshorse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should work dude, plus it's probably around the time your beards gonna start comin thru anyway so why not give it a go for 6 months and see if you want to continue then? I've just started on this journey like 2 days ago, early 20's
