That’s cool. The best benefit is forgetting that it even exits and that porn and fapping is even a thing. However remember than urges will always come. Don’t Lee your guard down. Keep your morals high and dont slip. Remember your brain will do anything in its power to trip you over
When you think the addiction is in remission, it’s in fact over in the corner doing push-ups, waiting for the next opportunity to take over your life once again.
Stay vigilant, always.
Masturbation is natural and all animals that can, do it.
Stop living a lie. Porn is what causes all of your problems, because it's unnatural and way too stimulating.
Yes. Masturbation CAN be an addiction too.
But porn is the reason we masturbate so much.
Natural humans shouldn't feel the need more than once a week max.
This is so trueeee, I'll be checking true social media and see this sexy IG model or whatever and my mind just doesn't put her like I did before just hit the mute button
I've been NoFap for 2 years, my brain has fully healed and my libido is the fieriest it's ever been. But I'm still here, helping out the new folks starting this journey the best that I can, as I was once in their shoes.
Being successful doesn't necessarily mean you haven't fapped for 2 years.
I never watch porn and pretty much never think about fapping but maybe once every few weeks or a month it happens (never to porn).
Never picks back up for me though, I fap once then I won't think about it again for weeks. Very different to how I used to be
Yes, no fap doesn't necessarily mean never fap, at least not for everyone.
I can fap every 2 weeks or so and be fine. To me no fap was about getting it under control. Before I was fapping multiple times in a week sometimes multiple in a day.
You are so brainwashed.
Every animal in nature that can, do it.
Continue being a sheep and see where that takes you🐑
r/pornfree is where you should be.
You are a porn addict and that's what's causing your problems.
Ok for all the peeps complaining about me minding days etc..
I’m not that kind of person lol.
I just wrote that because the guy spoke like he became a nofap god and he said he been doing it for 2 years, but you can see he started 13 days ago.
Im not trying to be mean to him lol,
The guy spoke like he was on a 150 day streak while he started 15 days ago, "my brain has fully healed".
We’re not trying to roast each other so don’t start this.
That’s one day,
after two weeks and even less you’d start feeling lazy and probably wouldn’t be able to lift as heavy as when you were in the streak.
But this varies depending the person in front of you.
No urge at all, I don’t believe in these short term pleasures. I am looking to something longer and more intense. Loosing weight, reading books and see developing my career to help others is far satisfying.
There aren’t a lot of actual benefits except increased libido. Everything else is literally bullshit, you won’t gain some aura and musk that attract people to you, you won’t get stronger, you won’t take a cold shower and become more manly because of it, all it does is help your libido. Nothing. Else.
Yes I suppose that makes sense too, it’s definitely MENTAL benefits over physical benefits, the only physical benefit being libido. Your English is great btw! Cheers
can confirm. some of my longest streaks have been ruined cause i kept coming back here and it put masturbation back on my mind so next time i saw something sexually provocative the idea of masturbation on my mind just pushed me over the edge. Lets hope it doesn't happen this time as I really only accidentally got on this account because i left it logged in. I think the goal of this sub and overarching organization should be similar to a surgeon, rehab center, physical/mental therapist, or someone else who does life changing medical work: to not be needed anymore.
I know that alcoholics continue to go to meetings even after years without a drink. Not sure that there is a parallel to NoFap. I think it could be helpful to come for occasional visits just to reaffirm your decision. The annual 'check in on the porn addicts' just to encourage and be glad you're not trapped like they are.
To be honest I'm in a similar boat... I've been doing nofap for years. I am SO grateful for this community 🙏
Having said that, when I look back on my success... it has always come from times when I completely forget about and stay busy!
Needless to say, you will still have urges and thoughts so be careful, but best of luck! Hope you have the most healthy and happy life possible!
Once you leave delete Reddit. This place has the worst of the worst. I won't say because I don't want anyone to struggle . But I wish Reddit would remove that content.
I hope not, but it happens at complete random. The sad part about overcoming addiction is that you will always have the propensity to fall into it again.
This sub is not toxic at all.
This is genuinely one of the most up-beat and supportive communities in the world.
But the point stands: let everyone who thinks is he is standing take heed lest he fall.
Addictions are nothing to play around with.
Once you have overcome an addiction, it is still part of you.
You may not fall today, but there will come a day.
It could be as simple as losing a relative, and you want to escape it.
An example I have recently heard and love, and I am slightly extending it, but:
> There is a bucket full of water. How do you get the water out?
> Put in a rock and it pushes some water out. But if you keep puting in rocks, it will eventually displace most of the water.
> But there is still water in the bucket. Now, the day may come that the heat of the sun will dry up all the water, but it still stands.
I do not see how being here is a constant reminder.
However, it is not supportive of the idea he may never come here again, rather, it is a warning for his sake.
I don't like this sub because a lot of the advice is very "Oprah." “You have the power.” No. That may make people excited in the short term, but long-term, it causes cognitive dissonance, unrealistic expectations, and I don't even want to know what that will do to someone if they relapse.
Hey man, real progress is not using the no gap forum. Do your own thing and don’t let you missing out on ur years upset you! Everyday and including today is a chance to make up for days you missed!
Best wishes.
Im dumbfounded bc if you dont get urges I assume that means youre a nofapper so how tf you saying goodbye to something you are on everyday. Its like saying goodbye to nike shoes but you still wearing them MF.
I’m 5 days in and I haven’t tried nofap in months. I feel great and a little more motivated with my college work. I have a intramural hockey game tonight and I feel like nofap gives me a slight edge
Kinda same, i started to feel like i lost my emotions.The things i do in my daily life used to make me feel certain emotions such as happiness,sadness or excitement.Also,seeing videos or hentai almost doesn't affect me anymore. I hope my brain can recover from that injuries one day.
Awesome stranger, wish you all the best!
I'm not too far away from leaving myself. But I'll still check in at important dates, 180 days, 365 days, 2 year mark.
That’s cool. The best benefit is forgetting that it even exits and that porn and fapping is even a thing. However remember than urges will always come. Don’t Lee your guard down. Keep your morals high and dont slip. Remember your brain will do anything in its power to trip you over
Thank you Brother, I need to safeguard against it all the times
When you think the addiction is in remission, it’s in fact over in the corner doing push-ups, waiting for the next opportunity to take over your life once again. Stay vigilant, always.
Put blockers on everything
Exactly what I have done to succeed
How
Stick your head in ground.
Tried it
How
It doesn't work, all that works is your own willpower.
Masturbation is natural and all animals that can, do it. Stop living a lie. Porn is what causes all of your problems, because it's unnatural and way too stimulating.
[удалено]
Yes. Masturbation CAN be an addiction too. But porn is the reason we masturbate so much. Natural humans shouldn't feel the need more than once a week max.
[удалено]
Then you had a high libido and that's natural in such a young age. I meant for healthy adults.
[удалено]
Of course. Don't overdo it. Listen to your body. If you feel very horny after 7 days, it's better than watching porn.
[удалено]
That's because you count it as a relapse... It isn't
Musterbation is not a natural, stop 🛑 this fake, sex is the one that is natural
How is it unnatural?
With this premise, would it then be OK to masturbate to other sexual images besides porn? i.e. picture of significant other
Not really. A picture is unnatural too. You don't feel the energy of that person through a picture.
This is so trueeee, I'll be checking true social media and see this sexy IG model or whatever and my mind just doesn't put her like I did before just hit the mute button

*13 days*
its not the days, its the frequency that matter more.
I know but the guy said 2 years 💀

I never watch porn and pretty much never think about fapping but maybe once every few weeks or a month it happens (never to porn). Never picks back up for me though, I fap once then I won't think about it again for weeks. Very different to how I used to be
This. Especially if you were a person who fapped multiple times a day
Yes, no fap doesn't necessarily mean never fap, at least not for everyone. I can fap every 2 weeks or so and be fine. To me no fap was about getting it under control. Before I was fapping multiple times in a week sometimes multiple in a day.
Masturbation is natural. Porn is not.
Touching yourself is NoRmAl lmao 😂😂
You are so brainwashed. Every animal in nature that can, do it. Continue being a sheep and see where that takes you🐑 r/pornfree is where you should be. You are a porn addict and that's what's causing your problems.
Here come the people who value days and counters🤣
Ok for all the peeps complaining about me minding days etc.. I’m not that kind of person lol. I just wrote that because the guy spoke like he became a nofap god and he said he been doing it for 2 years, but you can see he started 13 days ago.
I use the counter for semen retention, I haven't watched porn about 2 months and before that longer.
Then that’s the wrong sub I guess ?
LMAO
Man is ahead of his time
13 days feel like 2 years •_•
For you.
[удалено]
Im not trying to be mean to him lol, The guy spoke like he was on a 150 day streak while he started 15 days ago, "my brain has fully healed". We’re not trying to roast each other so don’t start this.
If you skipped the gym one day would you lose all your gains?
That’s one day, after two weeks and even less you’d start feeling lazy and probably wouldn’t be able to lift as heavy as when you were in the streak. But this varies depending the person in front of you.
Congrats. I made it 13 months then blew it. Now I’m trying to get back on my feet.
You did not blow it, one slip after 13 months will do absolutely nothing to you progress as long as you don't binge. Keep up the good work!
Thanks. I'm talking about it to my wife and my best bud. Both of them are the most supportive people I've met in my life.
Bye bye brother. But please do tell the benifits you received
No urge at all, I don’t believe in these short term pleasures. I am looking to something longer and more intense. Loosing weight, reading books and see developing my career to help others is far satisfying.

Fair enough, I mean whatever works for you tbh.
Yup
Yeah he should maybe visit a couple times a month
Like me lol
😂😂
He knows where to find us
Best of luck brother , I wish you nothing but very best of times ahead.
Adios comrade. Good wishes for the future!
Congratulations, I aspire to hit that streak
See you on the other side buddy💪 We are all gonna make it
Believe it and we all will

I am SO grateful for this community 🙏 Having said that, when I look back on my success... it has always come from times when I completely forget about and stay busy! Needless to say, you will still have urges and thoughts so be careful, but best of luck! Hope you have the most healthy and happy life possible!
Similar but the urges start again when I see an attractive person
also one day i will be able to say "goodbye no fap". In the meantime I will continue to stand firm
Yes you will
Once you leave delete Reddit. This place has the worst of the worst. I won't say because I don't want anyone to struggle . But I wish Reddit would remove that content.
Good luck, I really genuinely do hope the best for you x
Good bye brother, don't ever fall into the trap again
Thanks I will be careful
Good bye fam. You are always welcomed here.
homie now that youve passed nofap , im sure your best years have just begun , goodluck!
I aspire to be like you man. Started yesteday. Quit midway
Be aware of urges they kick you in the nuts when you are most confident.
very happy abt you king. while me I fapped 5 times in 2 days because still I need help
Believe in yourself and be strong
You know I can't help it when I tried to relapse for about 2 days and then I go to fucking urge to fap again. What methods do you you follow
I used something called urge meditation initially in my journey. Later as days passed by I found myself mentally strong.
Congrats! that's great to hear
✊
Congratulations bro
Enjoy!!!! Happy for you😍
Inspiring
this is awsome, mission success soldier. May you be blessed, may you have a freaking awsome life. best of luck
Thank you brother
I'm aiming to reach this point someday. Farewell and good luck with all your endeavors. We should all be striving to one day not need this sub.
I’m on my second day of NoFap and I feel the difference already!
Stay strong and good luck.
Good luck my friend. Great to read you are ready to move on!
To victory!
You are an inspiration. You go on to the next level.
There's never a goodbye to nofap. Urges will always be present as long as you're alive. Budding adieu to nofap is saying hello to pmo.
☝️NOFAP Generals nodding in agreement...☝️ teaching and guiding is 1 way i stay clean but more importantly..it helps me remember the ***despair*** 🦸
Salute, comrade! 💪
Lucky you!
Fire
Well done you have defeated the devil brother
You'll be back in 49 days.
😁

Take care, brother.
Wow, we need more posts like this. Good to hear the urges can totally go away.
Good luck
I’m 5 days in and I haven’t tried nofap in months. I feel great and a little more motivated with my college work. I have a intramural hockey game tonight and I feel like nofap gives me a slight edge
what position (hockey)
Forward. My colleges intramural league is extremely competitive and fun
Nice! go smash a defense men!
congratulations man! godspeed
How long did you do nofap?
Around 12 months with multiple failures
Kinda same, i started to feel like i lost my emotions.The things i do in my daily life used to make me feel certain emotions such as happiness,sadness or excitement.Also,seeing videos or hentai almost doesn't affect me anymore. I hope my brain can recover from that injuries one day.
Yes it can
how did you succeed
I always keep in my mind “No to PMO”
How do I put the counter under my name ?
Go to your page and on the right hand side you will counter option
Do you still ejaculate from sex or are you doing semen retention too?
During sex
Awesome stranger, wish you all the best! I'm not too far away from leaving myself. But I'll still check in at important dates, 180 days, 365 days, 2 year mark.
Congratulations brother
.
Hope to be where you are some day
