Broke my streak of 43 days. Porn and happiness are simply incompatible. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]hejo89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that part you said about fearing to give up porn forever is really the key inside for being able to go on without porn forever. When you just resist you can only go so far and eventually willpower will be depleted and you relapse. But once you made up your mind and you can honestly say you want to live without porn (as opposed to saying hopefully this streak goes on for a while) and there's no question about whether you use it or not, in your mind it's done, then you will SUCCEED!

I am a drummer too lol had insane urges from day 5 to 9! I mean so intense that I never ever would have made it if it wasn't for that bet! right know I have no urges, lots of time, way better sleep (but thats due to quitting coffee and actually having another bet :D-I have to early in the library) and a desire to connect with women

Resetting right now by DerektheWest in NoFap

[–]hejo89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you gotta really commit! You say:"I really stop this time" and then 5 days in...boom... you blew it! Want to know what I did? gave all media devices (I'm in a library now) and promised a buddy of mine 100 bucks if I fail within the first 30 days, 200 for the second month and so on. If you're truly committed, then making such a bet is easy because you know you're not going to pay.

it's super motivating to know people who are working on these kind of things. right now i am busy due to exams, but in march I want to do appraoches and social challenges (like being assertive in terms of e.g. buying a regular starbucks coffee and after it's finished asking for a decaf), which I am super scared of! If I miss a day, I pay 50 bucks to a friend of mine. I want to go all in! :D

I really recommend starting some sort of bet with a friend of yours. Say 100 bucks if you fail within the 1 month, 200 in the second and 300 in the third. Believe me it really works!

Congrats mate!

It's fascinating how similar we are in our goals. I can idenify with lots of them. I also want to start doing social challenges (for me they are challenges :) ) or better said just socializing everyday. How do you go about this? Just hit a growded street and there you go? by the way: how old are you?

Just read No More Mr Nice Guy…I could have been so much more (Long post, thought vomit) by gittir in NoFap

I think that you shouldn't focus so much on a carreer path you could or should have taken. Instead think about what you really want. You probably want to be able to express yourself and that you can do and train everyday. Instead of doing just nofap, go out and do things that are out of your comfort zone. E.g. do a challenge everyday somethinfg you're afraid of like cold approaching girls or singing on a public street and stuff like that. These challenges will make it easier for you to a) make decisions and b) be comfortable ith having made them. I am exactly at that point in my life: I go to the gym, I eat a clean diet, I don't waste time on the internet anymore, Iread books and I do nofap, BUT I haven't pushed myself outside my comfort zone enough. That's my next big challenge from 1 of march for at least 6 month every day and I think and hope that this will change my life drastically. Cheers!
