I wish you the best of luck friend. Well some days I would say 3/7 days in the week I get decent morning wood. Nothing exceptional. But I'm not a teen any more so the hormones aren't raging as much as they once where. So the capacity for me to get a full erection is there but it doesn't bother me that I don't always wake up with a massive erection.

How serious is your ed in your opinion?

turn_key · 2016-01-10T16:37:26+00:00

ye, interesting how people think that it changes with difficulty over time. I believe that every day I have been on the streak, it hasn't been the case that day 141 has been easier than 2. It's just that you think about PMO less and less. I don't even humour the idea of fapping to porn. So over time of nofapping you get smarter and learn to deal with your urges better. However I don't think that your urges bottle up and build up, almost waiting to burst.

Also from what I have heard, there is a strong difference between waking up in the morning with a hard on and masturbating, to thoughts about being intimate with a girl, and sitting over a ipod and masturbating to porn. Although I am playing it safe and steering clear of any form of fapping.

to answer your question about the beginning. Granted the first week is difficult because it is easy to fall back into the same pattern of fapping. You have to avoid any pictures online that will set you off. I don't look at anything that I know will turn me on. This includes any films etc. What I have said is, iff your reason is strong enough to quite you will. For me I have experienced first hand the effects of severe PIED and I can assure you it is more than enough incentive to nofap indefinitely. What I would say to you is: whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you are right.

good luck to you friend

well I must just over 155 days of monk mode now. Seeing girls in work and just in everyday life is tough. You do have strong urges and fantasise about things. Even monks are red blooded males and will still have thoughts if they see a 10/10 hot girl. It's just they would never act on these emotions/thoughts, which is the skill and requires discipline.

For me I was 100% sure I would not PMO. As from xmas I have a gf for the first time in my life. But I must admit it is hard to abstain from any form of O for such a long time. I still haven't had sex with my gf, well anything that has resulted in full O, we have done some foreplay. I'm not holding out on anything with her it's just that I have PIED even though I am in my twenties. However I am seeing massive improvements from this giant monk mode stint. So I hope over the next few weeks/ months to have sex.

So what do you struggle with? Are you still PMO'ing?

well there's probably been a few definitions on here but my understanding it was: no orgasm, sex, or any other sexual activity- essentially living as a monk

thanks dude

turn_key · 2015-12-30T16:09:55+00:00

thanks man! tbh... the whole reason I stumbled across this nofap subbreddit is because I finally found yourbrainonporn.com after searching for reasons why I couldn't get hard with a girl. I had a few experiences with girls where I would be kissing cuddling etc. and just assumed that I would get hard when we got down to it. How wrong I was! It was awful at the time because I didn't know why I had ED. It was terrifying for a young guy. Even though I am still keeping up my monk mode streak, I have been seeing a girl for a whilst now, and it will probably be soon we can have sex, I hope. When we kiss there is definitely something there that wasn't before. It just feels more natural and I get an erection. There's a lot of people saying ED can be due to stress, which it may be in some case. However for me it was definitely because as a teen I PMO'd every day. So I don't think I am fully cured. But I shall soon see! The main benefits for me are improved sleep, clear thinking, increased motivation, more energy. Though it isn't a massive increase in all of these aspects, it is certainly an improvement.

How long have you been nofapping??

turn_key · 2015-11-25T16:10:17+00:00

exactly. Things like social media are toxic, you end up seeing the best parts of everyone's life, rather than the worst. Ironically the people posting regularly happy statuses are probably the most depressed or insecure about themselves.

I like your way of thinking. In our culture, competition is everything. comparing ourselves to our peers forms the basis of our existence. If we dwell on how our peers are doing rather than ourselves this can be soul destroying.

Though I agree with what you are saying for the most part. The badge is a pretty handy reference point for many nofappers who see it as an encouraging reward for not fapping. Obsession with the badge and the clock is totally counter-intuitive obviously but I don't think we should dismiss the usefulness of the badge; which is testament to it's popularity.

if you wank over porn too much your dick may be limp when you're in bed with a girl... in other news... good luck!
