Check in
Streak: Day 6
@Keats I see that it is possible to continue counting the habits while being a candidate. I also didnāt stopped my habits streak, but Iām planning to reorganize and adjust them, so I decided to start counting them as I finalize the way I want to do them. Let me know if itās a problem. Also, I see my name with a typo in the list for a while now. Could you please fix it? Thanks Brother!
Well, its always been find to count habits as a candidate. They just donāt get included on the board until you become a member. Also, as a member you have to complete the habit 7 times before earning the scholar icon in your status.
Aside from that, I encourage members to only track a habit until they feel its fully formed and then to switch to a new habit or stack on more.
Oops, sorry. Youāre name subconsciously reminds me of a Lord of the Rings character and I spelt it wrong.

I cannt believe i am going so good
Yeah, I thought about that. Good movie!
Hey brother, I alluded to the fact that I started a new practice the other day. I too didnāt want to mention anything about it until I did a little more research. Apparently we are both on the same page, because monitoring my thought processes is exactly what Iāve been doing. Great minds do indeed think alike!
So 4 days ago I started writing down every time I catch myself in some sort of strong negative emotion. Anytime I start to feel myself get tense or overwhelmed because of whatās going on around me. Anytime I rage at some inanimate object for not working. Anything thatās negative at all. I stop, write down the time, and everything that is coming up for me and sometimes how I could have done it better. Iām just doing this on my notes in my phone.
Iāve been thinking about other things that I can start tracking too. Like how often I go on my emails or social media. I even wanted to possibly do it for when I catch myself not being in the present moment. So like when I start thinking about the future in the past. So far, Iām just tracking the negative thought processes and itās amazing! My first day there was like 8 or 10 things, but by the next day it was only like five. Itās really helping me bring a lot of awareness.
The simple act of stopping and writing it down, also allows me to detach from whatever emotion is starting to rise within. Just bring an awareness is not enough. Itās actually breaking the cycle by writing it down that helps.
I really want to hear about whatās happening for you, so please share when youāre ready.
Congratulations on becoming a gentleman!
Keep up the great work and keep being a shining example for all of those still on their path. Next the trophies will come and you will be well on your way to freedom.
Great job!
Stay strong my brother!!!
Iām not sure if I can gratulated you or not. Iām only on here every other day now. But congratulations!
Hope it feels great getting your first trophy. Pretty soon youāll have the rest. Just keep up the good and diligent work.
Stay Strong Brother!!!
Hey Guys!!!
Day 108
Day 65 Habit streak 1 (semen retention)
Day 4 Habit Streak 2 (journaling negative thoughts and emotions in the moment)
Hope youāre all feeling strong. I will see you guys on Sunday. Great work by everyone, especially those who fell and got back up. You truly are inspirations to us all.
I was thinking about my checking in every other day. I donāt think we need to make that a new habit streak. I think it would be better to monitor as a daily habit what I wrote @Evolved about. Monitoring my negative thoughts, emotions, and habits. Iām just doing a quick journaling in my phone about this and itās an amazing practice.
So please make that my new habit streak. Journaling negative thoughts and emotions in the moment. Iām on day four. Thanks brother!!!
Roger that, done
Hey guys. I want to apologize to you guys for not sending many messages lately. As I said a few weeks ago, Iām getting close to living alone, so I need to settle some details with the college and the family. Today I live with my parents, two brothers and three sisters, but soon I will be living alone. It will be quite a change for me. Anyway, that was it, thank you for your understanding and all your love and encouragement. Stay strong and keep fighting!

Yesterday was a horrible day manā¦I couldnāt sleep properly and also couldnāt do meditation properly.
I donāt know whatās happening inside my body specially in my mind because itās very painful. Just praying to God to reverse everything normal.
Does anyone is facing flatline here?
Like laziness, brainfog and all?
30 - 60 days is the period of flatline (for most people)
Its when your brain starts rewiring to re-adjust with the normal dopamine levels again. So yea feeling this way in these days is extremely normal. But whatever you do dont relapse especially in this period. Its like shutting down the PC while installing new updates.
Try and look at the bright side. While on flatline you wont have the will to do anything even masturbating. So its easy to go on with your streak as long as you control your doubts and negative thoughts you will be fine.
After that, on day 60+ you will feel like a new person. And your nofap journey will be just counting days.
@GuruFTW
Yes bro relapse is not an option for me.
And thank you for telling me the time period and I believe I can work on myself and on my goal after 60+ days.
Thank you for replying broš
