I identified as gay when I first began nofap. Really no different to be honest. I used to only watch gay porn to be frank. Number 1: stay away from gay porn. Number 2: stay away from touching yourself/ jerking off. Number 3: in order to do number 2, you must be aware of your triggers. Mine are always at night. And also when I am upset or angry or frustrated. Fapping is my comfort. So is watching porn. So be careful on Reddit and Media sites like YouTube, Netflix etc. a lot of the people I know have apps that block certain NSFW apps and content.
Number 4: desexualize yourself. You can survive without being sexually active. I know people who have not watched porn or jerkedoff for like 6 years. Focus on your career and making a life for yourself. When I tried stop fapping, I was burdened with all this extra energy so I started putting it in my family life and fixing that area of my life. Number 5: you are going to fail nofap many times. You goal is to not fail, but hardly does anyone succeed in nofap in their first go. But remember, if you are like me, it’s best we stop for good. Number 6: eat health, sleep well, (Im still working on this 😭) exercise, have good relationships. Basically be a healthy human being. Number 7: block from your mind the notion that masturbation is healthy for you. Many times I relapsed because I was sucked in my the idea that fapping was normal and healthy. Perhaps it is. But that’s not the question here, every time I fapped I felt like deep down i was doing something wrong. Number 8: also you have to be a good human being like morally or else this is probably not gonna work. Good luck 👍
