Just completed Day 5, the first day 5 in a stupidly long time. The chaser effect is one of the strongest evils of relapse, have to fight the urge to rationalise every single day. Can't allow myself anything even close to "viewing with intent", the slippery slope is ridiculously powerful. It's like being drugged
Starting to build momentum again which feels good, record is D27, just a few days short of a completed month.

Hang in there. Wow it's crazy but day 27 is my record in modern history of no fap. Tomorrow will be day 28 and that will put me back to where I crashed that first month of 2013. I guess what I feel better about is I feel a lot stronger then I did then. Am still just taking baby steps with my eye on breaking past my first month in a long long time.

Day #1 begins today brahs...
Realistically it's probably been 14 days but I wasn't keeping track, I'll be marking my calendar so I can keep an accurate time frame.
I have a feeling I maybe one of those who may require 120+ days to reboot. Wish me luck brahs!!

Have messed with no-fap and no-porn a few times in the past including a ~90 day no-fap stream.
From now on I'm going to go on a permanent no-porn, wish me luck brahs.

brahs how does sex affect your nofap day count?
I think I have porn related ED so haven't been watching porn for 20 days but had sex the other day and needed to fap to achieve a full raging boner...

Hmm,
if you have gone 143 days I doubt its no fap. Maybe your just tense about something? ie stressed, anxious, fearful? something you need to do. I have some suggestions.
- Take some magnesium, it will relax the muscles. Could be a magnesium deficiency.
- Look into some relaxation techniques like progressive muscle relaxation.
- Get the occasional massage.
- Buy a Dr Ho personal massager. It works great!
- Meditate
- Take time out to relax.
- Breath deeper and slower. Take diaphragmic breaths, not into your chest. Relax your shoulders and neck with each breath.
But these things are band aid approaches, the best thing you can do is go straight to the source and work out why you are tense. Maybe its anxiety? or your posture from using lap top. What ever it is, treat it at the source. Im not sure its no fap. I doubt it.Last edited by MegaPump; 03-23-2014 at 11:29 PM.

I'm making two posts. This one is a short TL;DR (yeah, oxymoron) explaining my post earlier, mainly aimed at Micky so you may want to skip it.
The next one is going to be some quick fire responses to everyone else.
No.
I'm tired of this guy bashing me for the sake of bashing me (fair enough if you dislike my posts and have me on ignore, but there's no need to repeat the fact over and over).
His posts so far have been posting the same Gollum/Smeagol .gifs over and over, copy and pasting someone else's work and insulting everyone (including myself, obviously). I'm tired of that too.
You're a mature guy. You're articulate. When you have to make a point, you're succinct and 100% unbiased. You've never brown nosed me, ever. Unlike previous people, who have seen me as some sort of Nofap god. That's far too much credit, and has a risk of kicking my ego above a healthy place. So if I needed someone to respond to an attacker (and someone attacking others) without defending me simply for the sake of defending me, you'd be the guy for the job. I mean look how you responded to me man, fuarking burriful.
But whatever, I will just throw this guy on ignore too. And he won't get to read V6, so in the end he loses out. He'll be gone eventually, just like all the other usernames who have been Nofap themed. The best form of revenge is success, to paraphrase that quote.
Don't quote/respond to this post please, Micky (or anyone else for that matter) if you do need to respond send me a PM. I want this subject matter GONE, and this post content stuck right here.

^ Just quit all that childish bullchit bras, I think no one really cares about te arguments itt. Me and some other brahs mentioned before that dat chit needs to be PM-stuff.
And 1 question, when willl V6 be out? I have a weird feeling some other brahs will probably make it if you wait to long.
Day 14,
A little less tired this morning and I only had one cup of coffee. Maybe I will limit myself to 3 cups a day amd eventually 1-2 cups, i feel like this caffeine is making me stressed.
Anyways, gonna smash legs today so I will be sore as phuck tomorrow.

Just a general thanks to everyone who is either giving support or offering constructive criticism (or both), it's appreciated. Just don't hijack the thread with it, for the love of brah.
The response here got a bit too long & too negative (woe is me etc) for my liking, so I sent a PM to Micky. If anyone wishes to read it, send me a PM and I'll forward it. If you're curious, of course.
Look at how many people are left over from those threads, though. This is indicative of the community; people come and go, and in essence sometimes we get a lapse in posts, an influx of people who are new to abstaining and potentially going to struggle as a result, and merely people who's posts "differ" from others.
Then sometimes we get a phuck tonne of old faces appearing and this place shines once again. Usually when things start hitting the fan, lol.
It's nice to see Pioteq is back, for example. I bet he doesn't anticipate a shout out Reps don't count for chit here mate, post on. Maybe you'll even get greened by a few here. Dat new avi.
You got time to do a write-up bro? The thread would love to read your experience and thoughts, and I'll save it to my comp along with all the other milestone posts I have. You'd be surprised to learn that there's many an atheist in the Nofap community, I myself am one. Just because you don't believe there's a hell it doesn't mean that there's consequences outside of religious agenda for indulging in masturbation/porn. Mega is correct to think this. Too many people who are on Nofap are quick to place any mental/physical issues they have on their abstinence/lack thereof. "I have been on nofap for 200 days and I'm still having trouble getting hard, do I need to go for another 200 before I am cured" is such an example.
Your masturbatory habits are not a compounding factor in your personal life, just as doing it is not going to solve all of your problems neither is quitting it. Life is a process of continual improvement in all facets, so while you're abstaining you should be using your ability to do so as motivation to address any other shortcomings you have. Otherwise you'll find yourself at 600 days and pretty much at the same place in life as you were when you first started.
BTW I've said it before; I like mega's presence here. I think he gets misunderstood more than is warranted; like anyone who hasn't garnered a high streak and isn't convinced it's something he should be engaging in (whether because they haven't researched enough, or had enough proof come into their direction) he's going to post a few things us guys disagree with. He may get a little worked up at times, but I think we are partly to blame for that. I read through all of his and Dardz's exchange, and it should have gone to PM a lot earlier if you ask me. I also read a lot of accusations of him being against Nofap, I myself have been guilty of that and unless someone is really proficient at keeping a cool head all accusations do is piss someone off and have them respond in turn.
________________________________________
Anyway that's my contribution to the thread. I'm going to take a shower, get some breakfast, get the laptop out and work on V6 again. It's been a huge weight on my shoulder to just get it done and move on, but at the same time I want it to be my Magnum Opus.Into- Mountaineering, running & Djent/Progressive music.

Sorry for the multiple posts guys, I'm just concerned that posts which need to be read by specific people will be lost in a wall of quotations. I'm not being argumentative with Micky, I have a lot of respect for the guy and you probably misconstrued the intent behind the post.
The more people who ask 'when will V6 be put out' the more I feel inclined to post here and update people. I know it's late as phuck, and you guys are losing faith by the second but until V6 is posted the less I type here the better. I just want you guys to keep the thread alive while I get this responsibility carried out like the man I should be.
Remember this is supposed to be an improvement on V5, which was a multi-post endeavour. And with my lack of focus/drive/mental capacity lately I suffer from writers block a lot or become unhappy with something I've typed earlier and end up editing it.
I have placed multiple submission dates, none of them met. I'm not posting any more, better to just get it done than talk about getting it done.Into- Mountaineering, running & Djent/Progressive music.

Make sure you catch my above post.
And yeah, I absolutely agree. I've actually considered myself responsible for the negativity on certain occasions, especially after the dust has subsided as few days later and I am able to reflect. Been doing a lot of reflection lately. I think my negative feelings towards myself have been re-directed at other users on occasion, and as a result I've been disregarding relapsers and letting you guys address posts of that nature.
Anyway that consideration has led to my drop in posting, I figured if I went into lurk mode for a bit and didn't get involved in the thread things would mellow out a little. Then we had a bit of a heated discussion between Mr Dard and Mr Pump, lol. But I digress.
It hasn't been posted lately, a) like hunter after you pass a certain amount of days the numbers barely count unless you're an observing newb and believe a month is impossible, never mind a year+ and b) Hundreds of days count for chit if you're in a position like myself. Better that the 100+ guys who are making alllllll kiiiiiiindz of life gainz to number drop.
Anyway it's over 600.Into- Mountaineering, running & Djent/Progressive music.

Officially 3 weeks no WD. Feels like my body is a time bomb and will go off any second lol. Not going to assume anything until a month. Although I wish I wasn't flatlining otherwise I'd actually feel wayyyy better about this. Feeling the depressive/irritation symptoms of flatlining like crazy. But it's okay. I'm grateful af to have these if I have to have them forever. No WDs = Mad Happy.
The truth you realized is the exact same thing I realized when on no fap. Feels ****ing great. Makes me always feel like the world is mine and I can do anything I want and I better bust my ass. It's a pretty awesome feeling so congratulations brah.
Also congratulations for your condition as well. I had no idea you were going through that chit. Sounds brutal man.
Yeah once I can feel confident enough to say this is legit gone and this flatline period is over I cannot wait to actually feel "normal" or like myself again. Then I'm sure I'll be able to look back and realize a few things. I already have learned alot from this scenario but I hope I learn more cause going through months of this wasn't worth the amount of stuff I learned lol. I just hope I see more to it soon.
Congratulations on your 202 days brah. That's fkin dope.
Thanks man. I appreciate it.
Congratulations brah. It only gets better. I promise.No Fap since Feb 3/2013.

D6 - getting actual workouts done again is nice. Motivation is building again.
Today's goal- to sleep by 1:00am no matter what happens. No late night.
Nice. It's hard to hear when a guy who has made it far relapses but at least youve found it beneficial enough to keep going again.

It's funny how this thread ended up essentially being V6, I just hope Tobias' project isn't too complicated. I personally thought V5's OP was great

Okay bros. Longest I have gone is around 16 days twice, then fapped because I got bored on Winter Break
Right now I am on Day 2. I downloaded K9, and all that jazz. I have a question though...
What do when you watch a tv show, movie, or magazine and you see something extremely sexual...almost like softcore? I mean its on accident? Do you guys just brush it off?
I always seem to have a problem waking up with wood, and just rubbing up against my bed since it feelgoodmane. You guy think thats bad?

Whatever you want dude. If you need an outline you can feature any of the following:
-Why you started
-How you discovered it
-Your experience (Has it changed anything about you i.e. new mindset, habits you've picked up instead of porn browsing etc)
-Advice for new people or constant relapsers
-Any tips/tricks you have
-A general statement on how you feel about the subject matter
All in all just write a 90 day account just for recording's sake and to motivate anyone reading.Into- Mountaineering, running & Djent/Progressive music.

I'm as guilty of this as the next guy but thanks for posting this.
Solid work bro, x2 on the write up! Pick any topic(s)
Do what feels right bro, it's not for everyone. Maybe you need to talk about it in depth here or elsewhere?
It doesn't at all keep plugging away bro! Don't even think about not getting it up, focus more on what feels good if you get the opportunity again soon. Don't "distract" yourself just go in with a clear mind and be open to what feels good man.
shrug it off man, sex is everywhere you can't avoid it and if you try you are not doing yourself any favors. Its fine to be sexually expressive and that is all writers are doing in movies shows etc. The problem is when you start seeking out this material on purposes and moving other realistic things out of the way to gain more pixelated eye candy. If you watch any subscriber channels on cable they all have nudity sex etc but those are some of the best shows on TV.
As far as the morning wood thing, I would abstain from rubbing it in any way until you feel like you have improved more mentally and physically on your no-fap journey. There are too many other factors that will make this habit reverse the cycle on you. Keep pushing forward!Workout Journal, Currently back to Fierce 5 Novice: http://tinyurl.com/qgwrlkg

Day 5 , been having mad erections at night and woke up with one this morning. Strangely this started happening from day 2.
Had my first WD last night! Dont feel bad about it, it was was good. Dreamed I was tonguing this hot 9/10 stripper then ****ed her in VIP area with all these people sitting around watching TV. Dont think I even wore a condom. YouWot8? Also dreamed I became a cop which was weird . After the WD I checked my pants and couldnt really find any evidence of seamen but I most definitely did ejaculate.
Night before that I dreamed I was stroking these two chicks legs and my god I got immense pleasure in my dank while stroking her. Felt so close to blowing a load. (Daym, whats going on?)
Admittedly I have edged a few times and thats what may have caused the WD. I still get the thought/feeling of checking the cam site in case there is something extraordinary im missing out on, but now days I have to power to stop myself.
All in all things are looking good. In the passed I wasnt sure if I could do no fap or that I really wanted to go the 90 days. Now im keen on making the reboot.
Izzo, and anyone else fapping on the daily, this may be bad for your well being and may be making you feel worse. I suggest (if you havnt alreay) watch the 6 part video series of "your brain on porn". If you have watched it I suggest watching it again to really absorb all the points.
Tobias, in response to an earlier post, your 500+ days IS an achievement. Id say to the same extent as giving up drugs or smoking. I too can relate with procrastination and I find you get a lot more done when you put less on your plate. Also I wonder if we also relate in the sense that you too may be a perfectionist? Dude dont worry about getting V6 too perfect, im sure you have some good posts and content and will do a great job of it. But no pressure, you put it up when your ready. I found the YBOP videos enough information for me. In regard to the YBOP website, I dont dig it too much because I find it goes into way too much details. Sigh.
Cant wait to finally tick off 7 days.
