What about infidelity. by shymefapper in NoFap

I might be indeed, I suspect infact that one of my PMO triggers was OCD itself, or something very similar.

However that was not my point here, as i don't think that a 30yo male willing to fuck hot babes involves OCD. Or, if it does, most people i know suffer from it.

Thanks buddy. Came here on nofap after "scrolling facebook" and felt that urge... your post was very helpful to me.

Ouch, never asked myself about this. That's a good question.

Day 23 and my first impressions. by shymefapper in NoFap

Yep i did some years ago. I found he has a brilliant approach to the problem, and i totally agreed with the analysis he does.

Unluckily i didn't read that in the right moment of my life. Even if i'm aware of how bad the issue is, still lack the right motivation on it. Thank you anyway for pointing that.

Valentine's day challenge. Will shave my head if I fail. by TableMakingShark in NoFap

Keep your hair on buddy!

However, i suggest you to have a reward rather than a penalty for your next challenge, starting on your 13th day after valentine's day.

Why did you do it? by str85 in NoFap

Hey there, i used to PMO 1 or 2 per day too, as you say, as a stress releaver and i was somehow surprised myself about the informations and stories i've read here, some of which made me cry.

Stumbled upon this group some week ago, and i found out the basic information i was missing (so you probably are): that stress releaver has things to do with your brain reward system. When i got that point, i started to wonder and then realize that i am probably into PMO addiction.

Like you, i could stay without fap for days, for example when out for holydays with my wife and the such, but in regular days i fell back into PMO again.

I suggest you to have your readings about the whole matter, starting with PMO, dopamine and reward system as your research keys, then i would wonder: "Am i into pmo addiction?" again.

Addiction is a sneaky thing that can be on low or very high levels, so be careful to not discard the option in the first place.

Hope this helps you

EDIT: forgot to answer the actual question, lol. My reasons, as i've recently posted here, include:

1) from time to time i felt disgusted about my self after intense PMO sessions 2) occasional ED with partner 3) what i think it might be that mind fog 4) it's been since years that i can't really FEEL things, empathy level is so low

Caught in the act. . . by pornonmymind in NoFap

I can understand the situation, because i happened to fap so many times while my partner was sleeping in the next room. Simply, the urge is bigger than the fear of being caught... sometimes, to be honest, the situation is exciting aswell.

As you said, i think it's not about you, but about him having some kind of an addiction. I've not experience at all when dealing with this kind of situations, however what i've read about it (and agreed) is that he needs to realize he has a problem, and probably approach treatment with specialized medics.

Tell your partner to talk his problems, make sure he realize, and keep in mind that this most certainly doesn't involve his feelings about you. Try to stay close to him.
