>>2217Well no shit anon, the pleasure centers that porn hits are the highest imperative in our brains aside from not dying.
I bet you're just on the computer all day, or for at least several hours. That makes it hard as fuck, especially when you've come to associate that computer time and space with masturbation. Find shit to do so you're not online so much, that makes it so much easier. Get away from the internet somehow, and delete all the porn on your computer. Shame yourself when you start to get the urge, imagining how pathetic you look bent over your computer masturbating to weird shit.

>mfw 2nd day of nofap and it's already getting incredibly hard pun intended
The struggle is real. I'm mostly trying this for fun though as I rarely even watch porn these days. I'll probably end up fapping in my sleep next night.
My applauds to whoever manages to get through weeks of this hell.
No.2249
>>2244This is wallpaper that made for my current 90 days long nofap. Every evening I add little green rectangle (width 20pt). Every time when I feel that I want to fap I just minimize all my windows and stare at my wallpaper. I'm used to fap 3 times per day, so these five days that I have doing my nofap are big deal to me.

>That's actually a pretty good ideaIt's good indeed. I already had few critical moment's in my first week when I decided that I break my nofap. And I was already going to my computer to find some fap content. But after I saw this wallpaper I was thinking: bruh, if you fail now then you will need to change this wallpaper, and think about how miserable you will be feeling yourself in that moment. And every time I was doing push-ups instead. And now eight days into nofap this I have learned to love this little green rectangle. Several times through day I look at him, I see how he have grown from yesterday (on 20 pt), and when I'm adding little greenn rectangle in the evening it's the best fucking thing in the day. Holy shit, I've never kept my nofap for whole week before. This is big deal to me and I'm already think that I can go through it (90 days nofap).
No.2293
After years of masturbating non-stop I finally made the habit of fapping once every seven days, preferrably on Friday.
I'm pretty sure our bodies weren't evolutionarily developed to breed every single day of the week.
It also helps me with my other crippling health issues.
No.2322
>>2293Mind sharing what your other health issues are?
I suffer from things like insomnia, brain fog, food allergies, and many others.
No.2325
>>2322I'm not that
>>2293 anon, but reduction of masturbation is not some magic thing so how you suppose it helps with insomnia, brain fog (what is this thing anyway), food allergies etc. This is all sort of separate things but you can start working with them. I guess insomnia and brain fog can be connected tho. Try to establish some good sleeping pattern
https://justgetflux.com/ this is really good software and there is similar for tablets
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.urbandroid.lux&hl=en . Don't sit on your computer through the night if you have some work to do better try wake up early. Maybe try to take warm shower before you are go to bed. Or at least wash your legs in warm water (you should have warm legs when you are trying to get sleep, this is the case with me). Do not drink tea (black or green) for four hours before time you are going to go sleep and of course don't drink coffee late in the day. Don't eat just before you are going to bed, and don't eat much on your supper and don't eat food that difficult to digest on supper. Everyday try to do some physical exercises for your body. Try to not see movies before you are going to bed they can excite you and you would have trouble with sleeping. Also when you are in bed try to not thing about your life, try to not think thoughts that get you exited and upset and keeps you from sleep. Try to imagine some nice things. This something I wanted to say about sleep. About allergies – man, this is shit to have allergies. My friend has this problem so every spring he takes antihistamines, maybe you should see the doctor with that problem.
And most of all do not seek some simple ridiculous cure from all problems (as fap reduction or abolishing) things don't work this way.

No.2485
>>2481
I'm this >>2289 bro. I don't know anything about physical health benefits from nofap (actually I think that maybe it's bad if you keep it on really long period). But I have several important psychological benefits. Firstly when I fap much (like 2 times a day) I get bored from normal vanilla pictures and start fap on degenerate staff (hentai, milfs, bdsm, porn). And I feel myself really bad after fapping on this shit. I fully realize that for most people this is normal, but I have been very religious up to my 16 years (I dropped religion many years ago tho) and have some unconscious moral values since those times. So if I don't want to fap on degenerate staff I need to reduce fapping and I'm currently doing exactly this. Second thing is that I have made some project recently and I need to use my imagination for it. And abstaining from masturbation really helps me build some sort of attitude that I can't achieve when I'm fapping. So as you can see I don't seek some sort of health benefits from nofap.

This. I'm really curious about that.
I'm trying 30 days out of curiosity, and right now I've done 7 days. I don't feel any different. I do feel more focused, but since my overall situation changed a lot since last week, I don't know if it really has anything to do with anything.
I feel good not watching porn tho. It terms of symbols and affects it's really the worst. Not that I have a problem with violence or weird fetishes, I'm no stupid christian, but… I mean, everything else in porn is even worse.

I've tried nofap in the past. I really gave it a chance but for me personally it's not worth it.
I thought I could turn my life around and fix my social issues by not masturbating.
Well surprisingly it's not that simple. You can't just take a symptom of your misery and declare it the cause. I masturbate often because I'm depressed. I'm not depressed because I masturbate.
Nofap is just avoiding the problem by blaming it on something. That might be helpful for some people but for me it didn't do the trick.
It actually made me feel worse overall. I felt like shit because I couldn't resist the urge after a while. I pressured myself into believing I'm addicted.
Everyone acts like nofap is the universal cure but it simply isn't.

m8, it was stupid thing to think that nofap can actually solve some of your problems. I despise porn and my fap addiction and when I break my nofap I inevitably start fap on more and more degenerate staff. I feel that it's wrong thing to do to myself so I fight with this and feel myself awesome when I'm succeeding. Thinking that nofap can cure your social issues is plain dumb, except maybe that fact that you don't feel yourself guilty dirty masturbator when on nofap.
