Official No fap Thread V4. Let get this shiz started. v3 is gone.

[WhirlwindTobias]

I'm afraid I've failed, reset day 1. Got some serious respect for all of you with lengthy streaks.

Thanks Tobias.

And I have respect for anyone willing to reset their streak because they edged. For some only an ejaculation counts, and I don't like that mindset. It gives them too much leeway.

In your defence, you're accustomed to touching yourself when you have an erection. Your hands are almost drawn to it, when you're conditioned to masturbate. You've probably never let one just go away on it's own accord up until you started this, after all.

As soon as I started my streak I immediately dissociated having an erection and putting my hands on my cock from each other. Having an erection just became an inconvenience I had to quell immediately. Nowadays I have my own methods for making my dick flaccid again...you'll develop your own in due time.

Nomusic, now I've seen it all....

What the hell is going on here lol

According to your sig you've no chance

Edit: haha, I heard NoPenguinClassic's increases your bench by 250% in only 4 weeks.

No page turning = All kiiiinds of gains.

Ittoryu's streak is longer than yours, but he came off because he started his streak after Jan 1st as did you. Both of you are on here instead:

[sumoo1]

you guys misunderstood what i said about music. (not sure if you guys are being comedians or cant read)

I said I'm going to use it as a reward, as opposed to listening to it all day for no reason and getting too much dopamine and finding contentment from doing nothing, instead i will use it after i have accomplished something.

I'm not being a comedian, or having bad reading comprehension.

Perhaps you have a different approach to music as I? I don't see listening to music as an activity, to me it's an accompaniment. I get things done when I listen to music, so I can't really use music as a reward for getting things done.

Stuff!

I look at breaking a strong addiction like starting a wildfire right after it rains. It's extremely hard to start, but once it catches fire there isn't much that can stop it if there is more fuel for it to spread onto.

I don't think anyone in this thread is advocating becoming a celibate monk and giving up all earthly pleasures, if anything we're trying to get more meaningful pleasure out of life. In the end, its up to each man to find his own way in life We'll never agree on an all encompassing list of what we derive our meaningful pleasure from, but we can all agree on one thing: It's not porn and masturbation.

Truly, I believe that this thread and all of its inhabitants want to break the cycle of PMO; this is our common ground. I can't speak for everyone, but I'm a full month (30 days) into breaking that addiction. I feel great and am looking for more things in my life to improve and I can tell you that the list is long. It's amazing how many more of the little pleasures in life I'm taking note of now that my brain isn't constantly drugged.

I would say that cutting anything out of your life that does not progress you and give you meaningful pleasure is what I'm about, abstaining from watching porn and masturbation being the foundation of improvement.. Music is one of those forces in the world that can stimulate creativity and develop your brain (Mozart effect), so I would say that's a healthy source to get a drizzle of dopamine from.

I'd be happy to see someone break free of all of the chains that hold them down and become successful in what they pursue, and even happier if it was me.

My goal is to go from a zero to 10k/day CEO master-mind prime-aesthetics super-human. I basically want to be the Batman.

Race you.

[Yashkovich]

lmfao at no music
3rd day back in the gym, furak
Went from 190x5 squat to 200x8 in 5 days. Feelsgoodman. Can't wait till I'm strong again

[DarDardz]

In my class today we were watching a clip about Rome and it showed a nude girl in bed with another dude.
I saw her tit for a split second and I turned away as soon as possible.
This doesn't degrade any progress of mine does it.
Although I wish I didn't see it. Would've been more convenient

Naa, you're fine
Would be lulzy if people saw you looking away when tits came on screen though

No. Unfortunately meagre humans need flesh on screen to capture their attention, all you can do is laugh inside at how you're no longer in that category.

I see what you're getting at but doesn't music motivate you and at the same time calm you down? That's the part of music I like.

But I definitely agree that browsing the internet for hours looking for music isn't good.

[DnkyKng]

just had a 1 and a half day fap binge, feels so bad man

I see what he's getting at, some people have such an addictive personality, they'll use any little thing to give them that rush that pulls their focus away from the present. I think listening to music can get to the point where it's harmful, not if you're being productive while doing so, but if you're avoiding reality by doing so. Anytime you feel compelled to do something to the point where you feel out of control, it's a problem, IMO.

I'm with you, brother. Do what you have to do to regain control.

[iheartmoney]

if you successfully don't fap for 3 months (supposed time period to "cure" yourself) then you start fapping again, will you have porn ED again? how often can you fap and still not get limp dick?

[Xhale12]

Day 7. Going through the WORST withdrawals. I literally can't even think straight. Severe brain fog, no motivation, can't concentrate, depressed, anxious, can't lift for ****...... when will this **** go away?

[Masquerade20]

Day 3 and going strong.

[rebreb]

I saw this thread over a week ago and I thought I would give the no fap challenge a try. I went nine days before I broke.
But damn, this challenge did a lot of good for me, so much that I am going to restart and try to hold out even longer. Here are some improvements I noticed:

Less drowsy-I usually took a hard nap every day but during the challenge I had more energy and did not need as much napping

Increased motivation-During this 9 day span I learned Fur Elliese on piano, studied harder (got an A on a test), better workout, played more guitar

Increased sociability-After class would end I would go to my dorm jerkoff and be home-ridden the rest of the day. During the no fap challenge I stayed on campus and began participating in several study sessions. I also felt and looked more confident

Noticing girls more-I am picking up on a ton of cues from various girls. Before I was oblivious to everything but just yesterday I noticed a few girls just giving me this look which gave me a huge boost of self-esteem. Of course, I didn't talk to them (I am still pretty shy) but I am sure that if i keep this challenge going I can do it. My sex drive was also dramatically increased.

I broke on day 9 because the three girls I had a major crush on were all in the same classroom (I had no idea) and it was all too much. When I got home I sprouted this huge boner and well...here i am. No fap really changed everything for me

[Stopdroproll]

Almost back up to day 30. **** went by fast as hell.

[Liet]

Still flatlined to hell.

Was watching Spartacus and a naked woman appeared on screen. Not a single reaction was had.

Horrible. Just horrible. No fap has been easy as hell because honestly the desire isn't there at ALL. I haven't had a single sexual thought in days.

[GhostCat]

depressed as ****, dont know if its the PMO or my current life situation. Try to smile but its not going away.

[centrelink1]

Fair play man, I remembered you were really struggling with it at the start, how are you doing now?

I'm still finding it really, really difficult. I got some action on the weekend finally, but now every hot girl I see I'm just desperate to ****ing annihilate her.

Naa, you're fine
Would be lulzy if people saw you looking away when tits came on screen though

Lol this.

depressed as ****, dont know if its the PMO or my current life situation. Try to smile but its not going away.

I know that feel. Good luck brah.

[andrenzz]

Hey bros, started 6 days ago. I've deleted all porn and cut off all access to it. Still fighting the fap demons, it seems everywhere I look there are temptations that I usually take no notice of. When ever I feel the urge I come here and read the stories of success and to help even more I've decided to join the conversation . Stay strong

[IZionLionI]

10 weeks! Still in it to win it. Stay in it fellas.

[DazzlaUK]

Day 39. Been flatlining last few days but finally starting to feel good again. Gotta keep positive lifestyle up!

[sv722]

Hello Brothers,

I relapsed today on day 35. I've been having a really tough time recently. A flatmates keeps smoking weed in his room which make the whole place absolutely stink. i've asked him to stop 3 times and all he says is "sorry man" and starts again. Today really took the piss. I asked him not to smoke and he apologises, goes to his room and lights up, so i get the welfare wardens involved who do nothing. I shall now contact the building manager and launch a proper investigation because this phucking fat slob of a pothead is really getting on everybody's nerves.

I give myself credit for standing up to the ******* who today couldn't even look me in the eye. Been also having some crazy bad insomnia (slept for about 8 hours in the last 2 days) Chit phucking sucks so much, i can't tell you. In the past 35 days though, it's been a real eye opener and time has really flown by. When i was regularly fapping it would seem like i had all the time in the world but time really is very precious and life is short.

I implore you all to use your time productively. It is the one thing all human beings on Earth have in equal amounts and it's the one thing you can NEVER get back! For those of who who've relapsed, identify your triggers and resist the urge. My trigger today was stress which really isn't that good of an excuse. I also have a terrible addiction to the internet - worse than fapping even! It wastes so much of my time and increases the risk of relapsing. It's a coping emchanism from childhood as i never really had any friends growing up and the computer gave me everything i needed - stimulation, "love", companionship e.t.c Pretty sad really.


Anyway if you do relapse then don't be hard on yourself- it solves nothing! Learn from it by identifying the trigger and stay strong. Here is a really good TED video that motivated my ass to sort out my living situation and stand up for myself.

Watch it carefully and learn from it. Take notes if you have to because it really highlights how we screw ourselves over- in fact watching it made me rage so much which definitely didn't help my insomnia.




Anyway i won't be posting here much after this last relapse. I waste too much time on the internet and this habit is even more unproductive than fapping as i use the net to run away from my real life problems.

I should also mention that i start therapy on Monday to deal with Shame issues from childhood which caused by Social Anxiety and FA'ness. To those of you still in the game, keep fighting hard brothers.

Stay strong, Stay Busy, Stay Fearless. I'll see you all in April for the April kunts edition.
