hey guise im currently on day 7 of nofap i want to continue but i am so afraid of flatlining and possibly never regaining my libido what do

[quelopario]

to hbhorat:

dawg, you're 15. chill the fuk out already you're gonna change a 100 times until you're grown. and your friends will too.

at 15 I was fuking around on WoW and listening to metal all day. my friends have changed a lot over the years too and we're still best buddies.
what I'm saying is man, take the chance and get GOOD FRIENDS while you can. you won't find friends for life that easy later on, and it's a great thing to have.

friends that I got to know later on, at like 18 for example (23 now) I treat them as 2nd class, they will NEVER get on the same level as my real friends. if they got a problem or feel down, I'm not there for them. I tell them to get lost, sounds like a douche move but damn, grown ass guys coming to me with their problems, you should save that for the people you're close with or go make a FA thread on the misc, wat the fuk

I have a question for the guys who have gone like 30+ days without jacking off:

Do you plan on jacking off sometime in the future, or are you just done with it forever? I mean having sex is great and all, but there's certain porn comics that I have which are so awesome, which give me a totally unique feeling that I can't get from some girl. It seems ridiculous to just delete the comics from my comp and never use them again, when there's literally no substitute for them. I would love to get to the point of jacking off once every 2 weeks, for example. Quitting it entirely just doesn't seem right though.

EDIT: part of it is the fact that porn represents certain scenarios that aren't possible in real life, or things I wouldn't even be comfortable with a girl.

tl;dr: can you get to the point of allowing yourself to jerk off once every week or two?

i would like to know the answer to this also

[Harnedy2]

i'm sitting here with a two bags of ice down my pants

DON'T Put ice down your pants FFS!!! That actually increases sperm production so I think it will only make your blue balls worse. SRS. Your balls are in your scrotum away from the rest of your body for this exact reason- a lower temperature is better for sperm production.

[TehAustrianOak]

i would like to know the answer to this also

I used to have the most delicious pron vids/pics ever like art trust me, my friends always asked me when they needed some quality stuff to jerk off to. Deleted it all now and I'm not planning to ever fap again. At least not to porn. You have to make some sacrifices to get further in life.

You might say it would only be once a week or so.. but eventually you'll say to yourself "hmm, twice a week is fine just this once." Then it's up to 3, 4, 5 times and ultimately back to where you started.

How will you ever change for the better if you are keeping the same habits that dug you down?

Contrary to what the Profappers will tell you, your libido never "ceases to exist".

I've never seen any source material that suggests otherwise. Just claims that are either riddled with presumption, or from dudes that gave up because they couldn't hold out until their flat-line period was done and thought what they had was permanent.

Okay, lots to address here.

Firstly, I'm curious why 30+ days seems to be the general "go-to" number when it comes to asking about guys who have done X number of days without. Have you not read the OP? Unaware about the 90 day reboot? Anyway I like to think I'm done for good. I certainly have no plans on jacking off any time soon.

Secondly, porn "comics"? WTF is this ****?

which are so awesome, which give me a totally unique feeling that I can't get from some girl.

Mate, this is a terrible mentality. I can't believe you can type that up with a straight face. You sound like me when I used to be into anime **** at the age of 16. brb they have proportions you don't get on real women so...don't you think that saying porn comics is awesome in comparison to REAL WOMEN is ****ed up?

Seriously, is this real life? You're a perfect example of someone who's ideas of sexuality are eschewed from pornography usage, I wonder what kind of phases you went through before you moved onto these "comics" for novelty.

Ugh I am in so much disbelief at this post.

Edit: "There's no substitute for them"
"No Substitute"
"Substitute"

Bro there's no substitute for having a real woman in your bed, riding on your dick like it's her last night on earth.

I just...I can't. I can't comprehend that someone who's engaged in sex views "porn comics" and not only justifies them because they provide a "unique feeling" but seems to have a preference for them too.

[Buckwildish]

edit: As I've watched more, you're reminding me more about myself. Reading all the self help books. Wanting to be better than everyone else. Defeating mediocrity; Acquiring progress. I pose a question for you brah, do you ever feel like a narcissistic fuker?

In my life atm, I try very hard not to hangout with anyone lower than me intellectually, I judge their intellectual level by what courses they're doing at school. I feel if someone is doing a lower course than me, they're obviously inferior and I'm wasting my time with them. I'm not going to benefit being friends/hanging out with these people. As the quote goes " You're the average of the 5 people you hangout with the most and the books you read." With this in mind I can hands down say I'm the dumbest kid in my group. I like it like this as it makes me wanna strive and achieve the level of intellect my other brahs have. I wanna be one of the greatest people who has ever lived. (somewhatsrs)

"First we create our environment, then our environment creates us" Your intentions are great, but it is never a good idea to approach life with limitations. You are preparing yourself for a very lonely life.
I learned this the hard way, because I was once like you and cut out everything and everyone out of my life who didn't fit my life goals.

I have obtained an MBA at a top business school and I'm in the process of enrolling in advanced postgraduate studies, so I think I'm allowed to speak when you mention people with a high education. As you grow older you will learn that far more important than surrounding yourself with intelligent people or people with deep pockets, is surrounding yourself with people who support your ambitions in life and manage to offer you positive value in whatever form that might be.

Take it from me, if you want to be succesful in life it's more important to surround yourself with 'average' people who support your back through thick and thin, than to surround yourself with people with a ballin' IQ but fail to understand the finer nuances of life. You'll learn very quickly that there's a difference between having 'intellectual' conversations (with those so-called/self-proclaimed intellectuals) and having 'deep' conversations (with people who have actually experienced life with or without a proper education). Your education is very important but it's worthless without social skills. People will always do business with someone they like or trust. There are few academics brave enough to acknowledge that, their egos won't allow it for they've invested too much in their education.

I learned this one night in a pub with my so-called 'intellectual' friends who seem to take a lot of joy out of talking about the most trivial things so they can show off their knowledge. Went to order some drinks and somehow ended up talking to a foreveralone 90yr old guy with Parkinson. I found out the guy was a WWII veteran, no education, lost his only kid early in life, had ahappy marriage of 40+yrs. Awesome dude. I learned more that night about succesful relationships, life, death, war... than any of those intellectuals could have teached me.


Watch this:


and this:


Don't worry too much about your narcissisticfeelings. Every young adolescent will go thourgh that phase. But don't be a sad cu_nt and cut people out of your life for no good reason.
Yes you should cut out bad people out of your life (trolls, energy vampires, negative people, ppl with bad values etc....) but intelligence isn't a criteria to judge people.

Maybe this resonates with you, maybe it doesn't.
You're 15, live life, but don't approach it with limitations.

[lazerhead]

Well I think I'd actually be more motivated to do the no-fap thing for like 90+ days if I was able to look forward to being able to jack off again on a controlled schedule. If I have the discipline to stop completely for that amount of time, I'm sure I could follow through on only jacking off once every 2 weeks (which seems reasonable.) Or it could be once every 3 weeks, whatever.

(sorry if this is a double post but I got ninja'd. Holy f*ck this forum is active)

I don't see how it matters whether it's porn comics, anime, video, pics, etc. The point is, porn allows for all sorts of different things that aren't possible in reality with a girl. I'm not even saying that one is better than the other, porn DOES represent something that you can't get from sex though. I understand how that makes me sound, like some basement dwelling neckbeard who keeps his porn in folders on his comp. Not the case though, I have a moderately active sex life.

I only said 30+ days because it seems like there's very few in this thread who have gone 90. I plan on getting up there as well, but to give up on masturbation entirely for the rest of your life seems a bit ludicrous to me, and more than a bit daunting.

[WhirlwindTobias]

Now see, your problem right there is that you refer to fapping as something you "look forward to". That in itself shows potential for failure.

I doubt those who do the reset and then choose to masturbate on an infrequent basis don't really look forward to it- it just becomes a necessary function as opposed to an indulgent activity.

but to give up on masturbation entirely for the rest of your life seems a bit ludicrous to me, and more than a bit daunting.

Of course it does, you aren't even willing to address your questionable porn habits. No hate buddy, I just find it peculiar how much you're willing to justify having them in your "moderately active sex life".

[Adrogeus]

I guess this song doesn't apply to us, but the woman who sang "I touch myself" died on April 21st.

I always lol at this part:



Also congrats on getting that interview Tobias!!! I'm sure you'll do good, and represent no fap!

Edit: to the guy asking about going back to fapping after a reboot.

I'm now on day 104, and I have no plans to go back, because I know it would just disappoint me. I think porn is a sexual fantasy world that leaves you worse off after you played with it. It isn't real, and living that life behind a computer screen seems stupid to me.

I have relapsed 3 times after more than a month. When I went back to it, I was excited because it had been a while. I lined up the best internet porn, set up my masturbatorium for the deed.

But afterwards I just felt like it was stupid. I felt sad too. I knew that I should not be doing this with myself. I went into it thinking I was going to accomplish something, but all I did was mess myself up. And then I went back to fapping pretty regularly after that.

So yeah, no plans to go back.

[Softworn]

still in since 04/29

[lazerhead]

I doubt those who do the reset and then choose to masturbate on an infrequent basis don't really look forward to it- it just becomes a necessary function as opposed to an indulgent activity.

I'm confused by the wording of this. Are you saying that people who "reset" after not fapping for 90+ days, end up fapping every once in a while just to "clear the pipes"?

Of course it does, you aren't even willing to address your questionable porn habits. No hate buddy, I just find it peculiar how much you're willing to justify having them in your "moderately active sex life".

Like I said before, sex and masturbation are 2 different things. It's not like having one is going to make up for not having the other. All I want to know is if it's OK to masturbate once in a while after a full reset of 90+ days of no fapping. Does that mean I'm gonna jerk off once and all of sudden lose all self control and go on a 14 hour pleasure binge with multiple porn videos playing at once and chaffing the hell out of my dick? No. But if I have a strong urge to rub one out every 2-3 weeks, is that such a horrible thing that would destroy all the benefits i've gotten after resetting?

EDIT:

Edit: "There's no substitute for them"
"No Substitute"
"Substitute"

Bro there's no substitute for having a real woman in your bed, riding on your dick like it's her last night on earth.

I just...I can't. I can't comprehend that someone who's engaged in sex views "porn comics" and not only justifies them because they provide a "unique feeling" but seems to have a preference for them too.

lol dude, relax. I don't see anything weird about getting a unique feeling from something that is totally different than sex. It's like saying you can't comprehend someone who likes eating chocolate AND vanilla. And by the way, I don't prefer porn over actual sex, not that it matters. In no way did I ever compare the two.

[WhirlwindTobias]

I'm confused by the wording of this. Are you saying that people who "reset" after not fapping for 90+ days, end up fapping every once in a while just to "clear the pipes"?

That's one reason why. I'll list some others for you while we're on the subject:

1. They don't like having the "dropped standards" that result from wanting to bust inside anything that moves.
2. They decide their brain has rebooted successfully so there's no harm in rubbing one out if they aren't getting any action.
3. They engage in it occasionally to keep things like stress levels in check or testosterone levels consistent.

Personally I think all of the above is trite, but that has no bearing on other people's decisions/preferences.

All I want to know is if it's OK to masturbate once in a while after a full reset of 90+ days of no fapping. Does that mean I'm gonna jerk off once and all of sudden lose all self control and go on a 14 hour pleasure binge with multiple porn videos playing at once and chaffing the hell out of my dick? No. But if I have a strong urge to rub one out every 2-3 weeks, is that such a horrible thing that would destroy all the benefits i've gotten after resetting?

If you've successfully rebooted, yes masturbation is fine "in moderation". Very rarely you'll find someone who passes 90 or so days and keeps on going. It takes a lot of guts to remove one of our most basic gateways to pleasure out of our lives indefinitely. However after 90 days it's much easier to conclude masturbation can be removed indefinitely than if you were at, let's say 50 days.

It also happens to be easier to think you deserve to knock one out because you've come so far and rebooted, only to find yourself going back to 2-3 times a day & several days a week to porn as if nothing has changed.

I don't see anything weird about getting a unique feeling from something that is totally different than sex.

Read up enough on Nofap, and you'll find removing porn from your life indefinitely should be a goal. Porn is the main villain in this play, fapping with imagination only is the intended objective.

[lazerhead]

Alright thanks for the response, all my questions have been answered.

[silkyjohnson11]

I have a question for the guys who have gone like 30+ days without jacking off:

Do you plan on jacking off sometime in the future, or are you just done with it forever? I mean having sex is great and all, but there's certain porn comics that I have which are so awesome, which give me a totally unique feeling that I can't get from some girl. It seems ridiculous to just delete the comics from my comp and never use them again, when there's literally no substitute for them.

EDIT: part of it is the fact that porn represents certain scenarios that aren't possible in real life, or things I wouldn't even be comfortable with a girl.

tl;dr: can you get to the point of allowing yourself to jerk off once every week or two?

Was going to crush you but looks like Tobias addressed. Bro cut the prons seriously. Being with a real woman is what it is all about.

I'm suffering from insomnia and am irritated as fuark, feel like fapping.
But nah, didn't last 13 (today is day 13) days for nothing.

[CXVII]

O lawd, thought I lost my No Fap streak today. I was in the supermarket and there was this fly ass honey HBB/10 and we just did it on the floor like not a single fuk given. Woke up and realised that was a dream. Was horny as fuk so I started fapping. Came and realised what I'd done and was like NOOOOOOOOOOO and went in to a depressed rage. Went super saiyan and blew everything up. Then I was like wtf, woke up again and realised that was another dream lol... inception.jpg

Just woke up for real and now I'm here posting this lulz

[hbhorat]

Look's like I missed an edit.

Okay, I definitely need to respond here.

Pidgeon-holing/10, but hear me out. There are several types of people in this world.

a) There are those who strive to be the best they can be, and are unhappy.
b) Those who strive for the best, and are happy.
c) Those who live an "average" life (This is purely subjective), but are unhappy.
d) Those who live average, but happy.
e) Those who have nothing going for them, but are deluded into being happy.
f) Those who have nothing going for them, and are miserable as ****.

I wouldn't mind being acquainted with person's b and d. I couldn't stand to be with person a just because they'd be a drag. I'm like that a times, and I'm draggy as **** when I am. Person c I'd avoid because they're just plain boring. Person e) would just drive me nuts. I'd say the 200 pound entitled whales you get on tumblr, or WKing Omega's are in this category. f) is just plain depressing.

You probably notice a common theme of preferring happiness regardless of talent or intelligence. That's because I don't really mind how amazing or average you are, as long as you're a positive person keep on trucking.

When you grow older, gain more life experience and are more open to talking to strangers you'll probably feel the same way Hb. It's good to be critical of others to a certain extent, but you need to make sure you engage in a lot of self-critique too. Don't judge others unless you're willing to judge yourself first.

Edit: Oh, and I don't feel like I should be better than everyone else. I want to be the best version of myself I can be, and hopefully encourage others to do the same. Motivational leader types don't want be superior to their comrades, after all.

The way I see it, if you're not doing the uni pathway my school provides, you're wasting your time. Just being an average person. You're not doing the uni pathway, not because you're unable to, but because you're a lazy kunt not wanting to succeed/ become a 10kdayceo. Due to this, I don't bother hanging out with anyone not doing the higher pathway except for a few brahs I'm already friends with.

For example, what separates all of us in this thread from the rest of the world, our constant need of defeating mediocrity, not being average, being sik kunts, being the best you can be.
However everyone doing the tafe pathway at school is not being the best person they can be, so why should I hangout with em. (guess it's kinda mean and cocky but do you brahs see where I'm coming from)

Your intentions of surrounding yourself with people who are successful or greater than you is a neat concept. However, I don't think you're approaching it the right way. Intellect is the ability to comprehend & understand things. When you judge people on their classes it isn't an accurate measure of intelligence. There are too many external factors that affect the classes you take to be an accurate measure of intelligence. If you judge on classes its shows knowledge over intelligence, because knowledge is how much you know and when it comes to academics alot of knowledge is built on prior knowledge. (example: math, you need addition/subtraction to multiple/division to more complicated things).If someone isn't in a advanced class it could mean that they haven't been offered the opportunity to learn the prereqs for an advanced course, or maybe they are lazy and do not do the work for them to be moven to an advanced class. So what I'm trying to say is, I would use the words more knowledgeable or more successful rather than intellectual because not all intellectual people care for academics nor do they all work hard and it might offend some people. (ex. Einstein failed very hard initially didn't go to a great university the only reason he is considered a genius is because he found his passion and pursued it and then the world later on realized he was a genius).


But that's all I wanted to clear up, so in the future you wouldn't make yourself look like a douche (you don't look like a douche to me but to others you do)
Goodluck dude.

If someone's lazy and do not do the work to be in the advanced class doesn't that mean they're not aiming for dat 10kceo status, they're just being lazy kunts allowing life to push them around.
About using the words knowledgeable and successful rather than intellectual. If someone is knowledgable or wanting to be successful wouldn't they put their heart out in school, doing the advanced classes (uni pathway)?

"First we create our environment, then our environment creates us" Your intentions are great, but it is never a good idea to approach life with limitations. You are preparing yourself for a very lonely life.

Any brahs online right now? Had a HUGE urge to fap and did some homework to get my mind off of it. I need some distraction brahs, any suggestions?

[shqiptar123]

Day 2 (or 6 not sure what to count mine as), the urge to masturbate is unreal. I see every (decent) girl as a sex object. Damn, this is getting bad.

use that as motivation to hit on girls more brah

[shqiptar123]
