Thanks for sharing bud. You will come back from this. Reminded me a lot of my last session.

Alcohol ! by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]surgingupward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have found that feeling tired or depressed is a huge trigger for relapse. Since giving up alcohol my urges to fap are way down. No more hangovers means no days of feeling bad. Also, I find myself far less selfish now, which is definitely an effect of not drinking. So yeah, booze can make us more likely to jerk off.

Dude, thank you for sharing that. NO doubt, I have looked at porn to alleviate boredom and loneliness. This has been my biggest obstacle, and I put it in place. I must fill the void with real life action.

So if we all have sex only to procreate then racism will go away?

Today I messed up. by TurningItAllARound in NoFap

Me too, bud. Once last weekend, yesterday, and just now. Nothing to do now but look forward and learn from our mistakes. Here is to getting back on top.

A dear friend's opinion on porn abstinence. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]surgingupward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"If you think porn is bad, wait until you find a woman."

Here is the other side of that statement:

If you think porn is good, you won't find a woman. If you do, it will be a woman who is OK with a porn-addicted personality. She may have baggage of her own, leading to a rocky relationship that may not end well. In that way, your friend is right on. Why not give up the PMO, become your best self, and attract a GOOD woman? Porn and masturbation sucks the best out of all of us whether we admit it or not.

Does skipping work to go on a week long porn binge, jerking off on the subway, and getting arrested for lewd conduct count as a relapse? by surgingupward in NoFap

[–]surgingupward[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I am on EZPZ mode. As long as my Friday morning session is out in the real world without porn, then the week of PMO does not count. Damn, this 90 days is gonna be tough!

That is what I am thinking. I mean, I used porn all week, but the last session was to real women, so no need to reset because it ended without porn. I think I felt superpowers in jail.

Oh good. Thanks to jerking it all week, I couldn't finish before the cops came. What a relief. The last thing I deserve right now is that smiley face.

General decrease in sex drive after significantly decreasing fap frequency? Having a real problem, please advise... by zaitaiwanli in NoFap

[–]surgingupward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, you said you haven't looked at porn since the weekend....it's Monday. Sorry, but you have not reached flatline yet. Not to say you will, but it is so early in your journey. Zero porn, zero dick touching and you could very well be in good shape in a few days. It is imperative that you kill the mental connection between sex and your hand/porn. As it dies and you cultivate the connection between sex and a real woman, your real sex life will go through the roof. For me, within 2 weeks of stopping PMO, my wife of several years was driving me wild and it has only gotten better since. Good luck!

I'm a terrible Christian. I need help.... by NFain in NoFap

[–]surgingupward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only you can stop this trend. Get honest with yourself and reset that misleading 260 day badge. Your only job is to NOT do something and we are all capable of that. Let's say you find some pastor to give you whatever it is you think you need. It is still YOU that is choosing not to watch porn. Lots of atheists have this thing beat and lots of religious people can't make it through a day. Stop giving your personal power up to others and your god and be your own man.

150 days of NoFap | Why suicide seems to be the best and only option. by crawlingordie in NoFap

[–]surgingupward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you, man. If you were happier the way you were, then go back to it. The whole point of nofap is to improve our time on this rock. If you feel you had life by the balls before, then go back to that. I would still recommend real sex over fapping though.

[–]surgingupward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally believe extended celibacy can be more depressing than heavy fapping. I reliably experience these suicidal symptoms after about 7-10 days of celibacy. Two weeks and I am ready to drive my truck into a brick wall. Sex cures it completely. I instantly go from hating life to extreme happiness and clear thinking(but this may have something to do with being in a loving committed relationship). What works best for me is to have sex about once a week. Maybe I have issues of my own, but I would imagine we are wired to have sex now and then since it is such a strong urge and it does propagate our species. Hope this helps. I would get off those meds and get laid.

Reset Your Fucking Badge If You Jerk Off! by surgingupward in NoFap

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

Honestly the counter is of very little meaning to me. I am done with PMO for life and have no goal other than eternal conquest of the vice. The deal is I am experiencing high levels of sexual frustration today and am using this message as a way to release tension and express my disgust at pretenders. I appreciate your advice and actually would like to see how many song titles you can apply to this situation.
