Passed all my exams. Things are going really well with college right now, which is great because I used to be a failure with regard to studying. True, I haven’t done a lot this year beside studying (no extracurricular activities) but I still consider it an achievement.
Also have been hanging out with friends the last days, so that feels good too. Have been drinking a lot as well though, but I guess it’s alright considering I just had exams and I don’t need to do anything for studies in the upcoming week.
Had the week off last week. I had a lot of free time and didn’t relapse (didn’t even come up in my mind). I have definitely changed regarding my porn abuse, my mind isn’t occupied with it anymore.
Almost reached that new milestone. I will probably make a bigger update once I hit 90 days.
It feels like my sexual drive is on an all-time low, but every flatline feels like that so I’m not sure if this actually means something. Over the last period of time, the only times I get horny were when I was with my gf. I consider this as a good thing though.
I made it! I will probably make a more detailed post about what has changed for me since starting nofap, but it definitely had a lot of positive effects on me. Two years ago I never would have thought I would get to this point. However, it got a easier as I progressed and started to form new habits.
I think I’m going to continue this kind of thing (counting streaks) with other bad habits of mine. These might be habits that are even more challenging to beat. It will definitely be something regarding social media or youtube. I still have to think about formulating clear goals though, to make them more achievable.
Still going strong. I’m now trying more seriously to cut back on my phone/internet/tv/etc usage. It’s nice to see that the things you learn in nofap are transferable to other areas of my life. I know it won’t help to simply say “I need to do X and Y less” because this is simply way too vague of a task for the mind to break a deeply rooted habit. Instead I plan goals to achieve (like “study this chapter of this book between 12pm and 3pm”). I still need to find a solution for the gaps in my day. Sometimes I have nothing to really do for 20 minutes and this sometimes turns into a Youtube binge or something.
I don’t consider pmo a problem anymore at all. I still get urges but this is normal: I will always have them to some degree. I just deal much better with them now.
Lol guess who was wrong! I relapses. It was over in minutes, but I did it. Man, feels pretty shitty right now. I’m not feeling different physically but it just sucks that I can’t yet let my guard down after 100+ days, I’m in this so deep…
Classic situation: late at night, tired, got stuff to do I dont want to do and BAM, relapse.
On the plus side: my media use has been a bit less so that’s good! Stay strong my friends
