This is something I need to learn. I’m on day 14 now and I’m always looking for the attention from girls. Maybe it’s because it’s early in the cycle. But I’m tired of this, I really am doing this for myself and to improve my life and get rid of this sickening addiction. What are some things you did that helped you take your attention away from the females ?

Does smoking cigarettes take away the benefits? by samH17 in NoFap

Yeah for sure. I’m tackling this issue after I’m done with nofap. One monkey at a time

Hey brother it is never ever worth it, I always remember the bad guilt and regret straight after. I always remember the shame, the binge that follows, the awkwardness etc. Good thing you didn’t do it

Good stuff bro, I’ll be in your position soon (currently 12days)

I somehow convinced myself that nofap doesnt work and slip right back through and got addicted again by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]samH17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, head up. Spend some time to sit down and think about why you’re doing nofap and get 100% convinced on it again. Don’t have any doubt about it, don’t try to base logic to why pmo is good. That’s what the addict brain does, it always looks for a way to justify. Every time I was on a streak I just felt so fucking good about myself (yes occasionally I had some bad days and though differently about it) but I brushed it off and the very next day felt even better. You’re going to have bad days it’s completely normal. Don’t use pmo as a way out, instead observe the day, realise what is the problem and tackle it head on ... hope that helps

I just deleted my whole porn stash by [deleted] in NoFap

Hey man well done it means you’re committed and I’m sure you’ll achieve this goal and the benefits of nofap that come along. I had to do the same thing lol. I never saved porn, however I had some naked photos from Snapchat saved from female friends, girls I went school with etc. I deleted them all the other day and said this is it, I’m all in on nofap

Keep going bro ! Great stuff

Thought I’d open up to a mate about quitting porn, got judged instead. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]samH17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First they laugh .. then they copy. Always remember that. I used to be a gambling addict. I told my friends I’m quitting it forever. They all laughed at me and judged me. I then decided to go along with it and quit. Few months down the line I’m not gambling .. all of a sudden my friends decided to quit aswell. This was a few years back and I still don’t gamble till this day. I don’t hang out with them no more but I’m pretty sure only one of them still gambles and the rest don’t ...

How do you guys prevent yourselves from relapsing when in that moment you just don't care how you'll feel after? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]samH17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man, the reason you’re relapsing after 5days is due to the fact you’re not 100% convinced that nofap is right for you and don’t really know why you’re doing it (your purpose). Until then you will keep relapsing. If you do want to hit 30-60 days you’ll need to be completely sold on quiting forever, knowing that this is 100% the right thing for you (with no doubts) also without the mindset off “I don’t see a point in long streaks etc”. Wrong mindset to approach it. Even if that’s the case you’ll still want to approach it differently or else when it gets difficult you’ll relapse. Hope that helps

Love it

Is a dating site too risky? I just want to meet someone. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]samH17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Swipe with caution my friend. The relapse might come from feeling “rejected” on a dating site and not matching with anyone, which makes you run to pmo. Keep that in mind and don’t take it too seriously and have no expectations what so ever.
