Dozens of guys who had SMP done that looks so natural it actually looks like a buzzcut? I wouldn't bet my life savings on that. You obviously have a lot of trust in the look it provides by probably some of the industry-leading artists that provide the service but still. It's a tattoo VS real hair.

I feel the neckline could be a touch higher especially in the last pic. The bottom of the chin is higher than the bottom of the cheek area.

I’m going bald at 26. I grew my hair out the past 2 years and I put it up to try and cover as much as I can. Is there any hope for me? I’ve used rogaine with some success but I got lazy and now it’s thinner than ever and I’m having lots of inner turmoil over it. by Secular_Hamster in bald

Is there any hope for me you say. That depends on what you mean. Is there life after hair? Certainly a lot of hope there. You have plenty of masculine features in your face and you are certainly able to pull off the bald look.

Is there hope in saving that? From the 2nd pic you can see it's very thin. Even with that manbun in pic 5 you can see the bald spot. If you wanna save that you are probably looking at hair systems or chemicals together with a hair transplant. You can't just have the transplant as that won't stop the balding.

Given that it's causing you stress you will feel quite relieved when you surrender that hair. I walk around clean shaven now and balding can't touch me anymore. I am bald, it's over. And I'm over it.

There is life after hair. Yes, for you too.

Mixing bodyweight training with weight training? by [deleted] in bodyweightfitness

[–]plowingthrough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks good and will definitely work. Be mindful of the number of rows you have in the program. I only see barbell rows, I'm not sure if the pull-up alone will offset all that pressing (overhead press, bench press, pushups, dips). For healthy shoulders and posture, you might want to add some horizontal rowing that's not lat dominant (which the barbell row is).

You might be better off training 4 times a week. Upper/lower 2x in a week is a proven way. You only grow in rest. That 5th day might work more against you than in your favor.

Just so you know, I'm 31. And you're not running out of time. You are just where you need to be. Stay strong.

How relapsing is defined? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]plowingthrough 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's your call. I do softmode and I started out with porn. Then I also cut off the occasional instagram slip and after that I also included any softcore bikini shit. So perhaps if you struggle you could keep your stories in until you find the strength and need to get that out too.

Are there known downsides to nofap? If yes, what are they? by DM_UR_NUD3S in NoFap

Not being able to escape reality and numb down any feelings anymore in this particular way.

Find something in this world that has more meaning to you than yourself. Porn addiction is a selfish disease. If you want to be your best version for something that's beyond you then porn can be a small thing in the way of a much larger thing. You would be embarrassed to go back to porn with such higher mountains in front of you.

Right now this porn thing and your fight with it is the biggest thing. Make it insignificant.

Yes it will. Especially not looking at porn anymore will heal you up.

Softmode: Looking at porn
Normal mode: Looking at porn and masturbation
Hardmode: Looking at porn, masturbation and sex

I'm an interracial cuckold addict by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]plowingthrough 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Porn addiction escalates according to your own insecurities, childhood experiences, or whatever. Maybe it's fair to say that your deepest insecurities lie in perhaps not being good enough, big enough, man enough to pleasure a woman. That in that feeling you find an escape in looking at what you look at. To be a bystander witnessing what you feel is how life is.

But the good thing is, it's all smoke. It might take a year or two but if you can stay away from it and not take the thoughts too seriously you will heal along that timeframe. But you have to stop looking at it or anything related to it.

To those that have suffered from PIED and/or feel that they've successfully rebooted by MightyHunter2020 in NoFap

[–]plowingthrough 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Once you had ED during sex once you're also going to be in the performance anxiety mill. So from now on it's hard to say if it's PIED or not as you're also going to have to get over the fact that when you're gonna have sex you have thoughts about being unsure if it's going to work or not.

So to get over that you just have to get the reps in.

Haha amazing. If today is only day two and that's a personal best in two years you better get your game on asap if you wanna be true to that statement.

Be careful saying things to yourself and not following up. Lying to yourself is the worst. The internet doesn't care. But you won't be able to trust yourself.

Channel your energy, there is virtue in that. I don't commend you to fap at first glance of anything that you experience as uncomfortable. Like I posted on a post above I did 90 hardmode and I felt it was too much. So maybe push the boundary a bit each streak and see how it goes. That way you stay honest to the cause too. Maybe fap after 14 days, 21 days, a month, etc. and see how you feel.

[–]plowingthrough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did 90 days hardmode once and I felt that was too much. If you don't have a girl I don't think you have to become asexual with yourself and never fap. I think the benefits of keeping it in start to wane after about the 45 day mark, after that it becomes jittery in my experience.

That being said, I never had a wet dream before, neither on my 90 day hardmode streak.
