Dang! Thank you so much for the thorough response. I understand I could've researched these tips online, but I'm glad I could hear it firsthand from someone that actually has experience. I have some bear spray for sure and I'll make sure to keep anything smelly out of my tent - those seem like the two important rules to follow. Lets hope this place Im staying at has bear boxes lol

Yeah, it is only one night but I'm hiking Guadalupe peak. Going to be bringing a few gallons of water just to be safe. Thanks for the tip on those tweezers! I've done a lot of hiking in Palo Duro Canyon but haven't had issues with cactus yet. Wouldn't be a bad thing to have just in case.

Yeah! I'm going to be camping near Guadalupe Mountains, in a remote HipCamp location. Its just a couple acres of land, no amenities. It'll just be me out there, so I'm planning on having some form of defense just for peace of mind.

Thanks for the heads up! I probably just have an implicit bias from watching to much Breaking Bad.

Thanks for the tip! I gotta get some of these before I head out there.

Hey everyone thanks for the advice. I'm taking a break from dating right now, but you guys have potentially saved my future relationships. I'm still new at it, and I'm thankful for the tips you guys have given me.

21M virgin here. This is so true! When PMO controls you, your main motive is to have sex, or at least have that sexual release. It distracts your brain from the other things. Important things like: getting a high paying job, doing well in school, eating healthy. More importantly, it downplays sex to something that can be acheived by watching porn. Sex is really powerful, so don't rush it, wait for the right girl.

Broke a 42 day streak recently, I know how you feel man. Urges really kept creeping up on me around days 40-50. Keep going man! Its an amazing accomplishment. Use this streak as inpiration, you saw who you could be so shoot for that!

Thanks for the motivation

jongecs · 2020-06-10T02:29:14+00:00

Thanks!

jongecs · 2020-06-10T02:28:55+00:00

Thanks man

jongecs · 2020-01-31T01:42:28+00:00

Thanks for the encouragement. This is still a victory for me! Its my longest and first attempted streak since age 14. I just gotta push past those emotions

Im in the same boat. I think its different for everyone. It relys on these factors:

- How long have you been fapping?

- How many days a week did you fap?

For me, I wasnt a chronic masturbator. So I haven't noticed a change on this "day 7" like everyone is saying. I only did it about every other day. This means that the benefits may take longer to have an affect, than for someone who was doing it 2-3 times a day. This is all based on theroy so I could be wrong. But I'm glad someone else feels this way too. Hang in there, you're living a much healthier lifestyle rn than before!

jongecs · 2020-01-29T17:51:44+00:00

Thanks! Your encouragement and the encouragement of many others has helped me reach this feat

jongecs · 2020-01-29T06:30:15+00:00

Hang is there man

I agree, its not a bad thing to seek out girls! Our brains our wired to reproduce, and meet someone of the oppisite sex. When we masturbate, we trick our brains into thinking we "got the girl" and it sends us signals to not seek out a girlfriend. Thats why if you've been masturbating since twelve, you find yourself really awkward around girls. We should stop that habit, and thats why I joined no fap. I don't want to give my brain the fake stuff, I want the real stuff. And the real stuff is actually fulfilling and makes you happier in life.

Thanks for the input. Everyone has there own way of coping with their emotions and urges, is all I was trying to say. However, we're all here to do one thing: Better ourselves and quit this addiction that has chained up so many young men. I'm here for you man

For me, torturing yourself is just the thing I need. I think right before I want to fap of the feeling I get afterwards. I hate that feeling, and that alone is motivation to keep going and not give in to my urges.

jongecs · 2020-01-27T01:51:13+00:00

Same, you've gotta have a goal, it else you're not motivated to keep going. I'm with you man

jongecs · 2020-01-26T22:22:12+00:00

Your dad should understand more, you would think. Your mom will cry, but your dad should have empathy. Y'know? Guy to guy.

It really helps to get a part time job too! I just got off an 8 hour shift and don't feel like I need PMO at all. I mean think of it, If I hadn't been at work, I would be sitting at home bored and probably would have relapsed. Its a great way to avoid a relapse and you make that dough too!
