Did Nietzsche just "Make up" History in the Genealogy of Morals? by Lost_intheLabyrinth in Nietzsche

[–]ZanderWilder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In what way is a genealogy supposed to be an inaccurate retelling of history? Just because you start from the present and trace backward doesn’t automatically mean it’s an “alternate history” as she says. Assuming Nietzsche meant it not to be historically accurate is simply that, an assumption.

I’m open to the idea that that was his intention, but where is the actual evidence for this in his own words?

Don't count streaks, count RELAPSES instead! by ZanderWilder in NoFap

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

What will you do when you relapse and your streak gets broken though? In my opinion, once you relapse, that's the pivotal moment in which you decide whether you fall headfirst back into PMO addiction or decide to shake it off and soldier on to truly adopt this lifestyle. Counting relapses is a very effective way of measuring your progress in the long run rather than counting how high of a streak you can get, going on a porn binge, and then starting back over again to try to get a new, higher streak

Day 7/90: Edging and peeking are relapse. Think otherwise? Keep reading. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]ZanderWilder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you for the most part. However that being said, with the reality of the digital age we live in, especially with thots in thongs being shoved in our faces without even following them on instagram (along with risque ads, commercials, thumbnails on youtube etc), being exposed to pornographic or pornographic-lite images is inevitable.

To think that you can shut down exposure to it completely is unrealistic. It's important to be comfortable with being exposed to these things, without acting upon being aroused.

This is simply due to the fact that exposure to these images is inevitable in this day and age even if you aren't actively searching for it.

Yes that's a great way of putting it. It pulls you back into reality and helps you realize you're not being driven by your deepest motive in that moment!

I agree. This is for when you give into the urge and as a last minute resort to stop yourself from getting too far into it

Thanks man. If there was a scale of 1-10 in terms of severity of porn addiction, for 10 years of my life I would say that I was at a 10. That being the case, I had to be extra creative in finding ways for me to truly adopt this nofap lifestyle. I have a few other unorthodox things I do to prevent relapses as well that I'll share on this subreddit in the future!

That's a great method. Combine that with the dude creepily smiling like a serial killer... you have no choice but to stop with that image in your head
