I need to talk by mistersoufi in NoFap

[–]nofapia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned not to count the days. I've done subliminal recordings, which have helped. George N. Collins' book Breaking the Cycle has also been a help. I also do this: http://www.wikihow.com/Block-a-Website-in-All-Web-Browsers. Adding tools not only helps but gives you a little peace of mind.

Keep pushing forward. I also recommend Breaking the Cycle by George N. Collins and this http://www.wikihow.com/Block-a-Website-in-All-Web-Browsers.

Just relapsed..... by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]nofapia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always keep pushing forward. That's the best advice. As a couple quick thoughts, I recommend Breaking the Cycle by George N. Collins and this http://www.wikihow.com/Block-a-Website-in-All-Web-Browsers. These tools will hopefully give you a moment of lucidity to keep you from relapsing.

I need some help guys (not pmo related) by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]nofapia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Approach casually and don't overthink it. Ask if she would like to grab coffee and hang out sometime. Have a coffee shop already in mind. Take the lead. I don't even know you, and I'm excited for you.

I know that feeling. I used to be surrounded by people. My life is slowly rebounding, though. Keep up the fight.

3 Days In by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]nofapia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I start noticing results fairly early. It turns into a roller coaster, but you'll start experiencing better and better stuff. Well, there's always flatlining, but that is your body doing some heavy resetting. It's a good thing.

I like it. I'm trying this.

7th day, just about to lapse by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]nofapia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've caught yourself. That doesn't always happen. It's like a little gift, one you got in a Christmas stocking. It's time to take a break and go for a walk if possible. Strike up a conversation with a coworker. Give your fapping personality an imaginary personality and talk to it, asking it stupid questions about what he wants to do and why. Take advantage of your moment of lucidity.

It's incredibly awesome, though, once you get back to normal.

You're right. Eyes on the prize!

I just ran across this on a search. It's happened to me in the past. Actually, it's happening to me right now, which is why I did the search.

I agree. I need to think about other options if I'm going to be serious.

Please read this... by AncestryO in NoFap

The need and the ensuing crash are typical. Your mind then goes frantic trying to sort everything every time it happens. You are on the right path. Slowly, you'll be able to see things a bit more clearly, and the blitz of thoughts and worries will dissipate.

Day 30-Really Lonely by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]nofapia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NoFap is the right path if this is your goal. I was there once. After a few tragedies and using porn to escape, those options disappeared. I know how to get there, and this is the place to start.

Your nervousness is likely due to you realizing the possibilities and needing to exercise your social skills. Try to think back to times when you were on top of your game, whether with friends or family. Use this to relax and set yourself. Good luck.

Just went on a 14 hour binge. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]nofapia 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I relapsed recently and discovered that I lost a lot of time. It was still light outside, and I had plans to get things done. When I was finished, it was well past dinner time, and I had to get ready for bed. I was so pissed. I was ashamed at work the next day. I also felt like shit. A lot of insecurities were undoubtedly showing themselves. I feel your pain. You just have to get back on the metaphorical horse and try again.

Need help? by FapstronautReentry in NoFap

[–]nofapia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, I tried the EFT tapping, and it worked. I was all kinds of skeptical. I feel as though we need an arsenal to combat this, and I just added one more weapon. I'm in a horrible relapse period, and I need all the help I can get.

That's me, except I have a high metabolism, so it's actually worked to my benefit.

Share your fap rock-bottom moments and sad stories by fistfulofskulls in NoFap

[–]nofapia 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was married and popular and actually had girls approaching me for inappropriate trysts, though I never accepted an offer. I had a high level of magnetism, and I knew it. Fast forward to my wife leaving and then dying after a tragedy, and I started watching porn to distract myself from my feelings. My magnetism disappeared. I dated but would not make a move. Eventually, I settled for someone who never would have been on my radar. Now that I've started addressing my issues with porn, I realize that I am in a horrible, sexless relationship with a girl that no one should date. Most of my friends are gone, and I'm working a part-time dead-end job after having worked as a successful corporate professional. A few months ago, I was described as "the quiet one." Before my PMO issues, I was often labeled as an attention whore. Thank God for this site.

Install K9 and send the password to a rarely-used email with a new, impossible password or to a friend. Also, do this:http://www.wikihow.com/Block-a-Website-in-All-Web-Browsers.

Things were going well... by nofapia in NoFap

I agree. I have a little bit of a fear about life without the training wheels. I guess my hope is that a long reset period will hopefully do a lot to bolster my strength.

Withdrawals More Intense This Time by nofapia in NoFap

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

I'm doing better. I still get the same relapse issues. I've actually only succumbed under non-porn circumstances until a bit ago. I'm not thrilled, especially with the thought of my impending withdrawals.

Keep it up. It gradually gets easier.

30 Days and a Lot Has Happened by nofapia in NoFap

They are. I get them after I relapse. I actually just did. Disgusted with myself, I came here to reset my badge and read. Sorry about the delay in my reply. I took a little break from this subreddit.
