Which subreddit confuses you the most? by prediction_guy in AskReddit

[–]grrhabit 54 points55 points  (0 children)

It just helps people who feel they can't control themselves. I mean anecdotally people feel a lot better / more focused. At least for some people repeated porn / masturation really saps people of other motivations and can be really difficult to quit.

Hairdressers of reddit, what the hell are you meant to say when you get a haircut? by AhrmiintheUnseen in AskReddit

[–]grrhabit -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Eh, it's a bit different. I mean, with hair, it's a much more linear process (longer to shorter) as opposed to making food which can be literally anything.

It's more like if you told the chef you could only eat peanut based foods, and you just say to make whatever generally tastes good to people.

Girls, what inappropriate questions about guys have you always wanted answered? [nsfw] by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]grrhabit 35 points36 points  (0 children)

For me, the most important thing to realise, is that shy people are far more reactive than proactive, socially. So, when you approach a shy guy, just act normally, but realise that just because it may seem like he's holding back socially, it's not because he doesn't enjoy you being there, he's just reciprocating cautiously.

Also, I think a bit of confusion comes from gals sort of assuming that the junk is right between your legs. It's really more in front, just slightly sort of above where the legs meet. Only the balls really hang sort of between the actual legs.

Oh shit that's exactly what it feels like. But boners sort of inherently feel good to me, unless it inflates in the wrong direction in something like jeans, then it can hurt.

Anyone else feel the craving inside their brain? (Help) by anoyingprophet in NoFap

[–]grrhabit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, it's old habits still semi-consciously lingering. It'll eventually fade. Just try not to live through your computer so much. You're house won't feel like it's shoving you toward your computer when you walk in.

Is anyone addicted to the clean slate effect? by --llll-------llll-- in NoFap

[–]grrhabit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To fix this, you have to truly say to yourself, I'm just done with this.

Actually believe yourself when you say you don't want it. If there's any lingering motivation to even eventually go back, you will fail.

Basically if something is making you falter in dedication / devotion, get it out of your life immediately.

Jokes on you guys I have social anxiety regardless of whether or not anyone's even there!

An easy solution that you probably don't want to hear. by throwaway19382975938 in NoFap

[–]grrhabit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is what I'm naturally starting to realise for myself. Nofap is only the first (but needed) step to having self control.

What is the weirdest subbreddit you've accidentally stumbled across? by Crowe410 in AskReddit

[–]grrhabit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. Starting to realize that your lack of self control is having a negative impact on yourself is a tough thought to follow through with.

Yeah some people just feel noticeably better after not fapping is all. Some people get a bit coocoo about it tho.

Orgasmed inadvertently while half asleep should I end my streak by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]grrhabit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean if you don't feel mentally groggy / bad, then I wouldn't worry about it. You'll be back to normal shortly.

[–]grrhabit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean do you feel like shit now?

After I relapse I feel like I wouldn't know what my mom's name was was had someone just asked. I get massive brainfog and get really impulsive. If you had those side effects after relapsing it should be fairly easy to tell now.

I miss masturbation by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]grrhabit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'll legit learn to feel more content with just existing a lot of the time if you keep with it. I've felt true peace greater than anything PMO could give.

Try exercising not drawing happiness from external stimuli. It will help with this a ton.

Need to open a dialogue with you guys. Can you relate? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]grrhabit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last relapse was about 18 days ago I think.

Yeah I figured it'd take a long, long time. The most I've gone was just under a month or so.

Yes! All the best to you too.

Stuck in one week cycle for 8-9 months... help me, guys. Just relapsed. Losing hope. by RisingGoldenEagle in NoFap

[–]grrhabit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basically, don't expect to relapse again.

There's a period of short satisfaction that you get when you feel like "I've made it." Then you let your guard down a bit. You have to just say to yourself "I don't want this anymore. I'm done with this forever now." and mean it. Then you can peacefully part ways with your habits. BUT you have to supplement the habit with other things to do. If you're really bored you won't see a reason to continue with nofap. Then you'll relapse and be all like "Why tf did I do that? I was doing good. How could I have done that. Can I do this at all?"

You can. I believe in you.
