No Fap Challenge Progress

[JohnChops]

I wonder... does fantasizing also have the same effects as porn?

well dont you think fantasizing and porn go hand in hand. Porn is like a supplement for fantasizing.

 

[Mr.SomeoneElse]

after my own experiences I view nutting as nutting... now that i get it regular , i dont feel really any better... if anything im less likely to go out and get new girls , because i have open mouths and legs waiting for me , but the thing is , there really not the best I can do , there maybe average , so im going to join this cause , no spanking it , or no sex , unless i view the girl a a 6.5 or higher

EXACTLY the same situation as me cable.
I have girls, but I want new ones.
I'm cutting out sex for 30 days and i'm cutting fapping out for 90.




Day 4 now, went by really fast,
Day 5 tomorrow.
I noticed a few things actually, I do have a bit more energy.
I had the whole apartment to myself today, I wrote a FULL song, something
I havent done in a while, so pretty stoked on that.

Downsides so far is I have a decrease in appetite, i'm trying to bulk so it sucks

I did sext a girl tonight and last night though, (can I still do this??? )
I didnt fap, I just sexted her and got turned on by her 'mmmm's and aahhhh's'
I sexted another girl tonight. still didnt fap, just enjoyed the process
Should I stop doing this? I'm not sure if I should keep my mind off sex entirely or if this is okay.
So far day 1, 2, 3 were super hard, day 4 was a breeze

Thinking about sex is fine.

It's the act of masturbating/watching porn (or a combination of both).


Our minds weren't built for pornography, so every time you watch a video, there are some scientific consequences which I can't exactly recall right now I will have to re-read some articles...but the fact is that porn DOES have negative side effects.


Cutting off masturbation and cutting off porn causes different results. However, cutting both of them off will benefit you.

Thinking about sex and HAVING sex is perfectly fine...just don't watch any artificial mind stimulants (porn).

 

[Eternal_water]

why are you guys also quitting sex?!?!?!

This is more for people who cant get sex..

 

[ladiesman217]

This is a great idea. But what if you can't have sex? Like I'm from
A prude Christian homeand my parents don't want me kissing. Will not orgasming period be bad ?

because despite what most of you think , saving your sperm and the lack of orgasm are what changes your mood and energy , it has nothing to do with it being from porn or your hand making it happen

your mind reacts to your sex life , if it noticed your not getting any it will make up for it by changing you slightly , more energy , more bold , things to help you get some , but once you nut again your brain thinks its doing fine without this additional help

Nutting while having sex and nutting while masturbating have different effects on your mind AND body.

Day 3.
Had the day off and was in my apartment all day.
DRIVING MYSELF CRAZY

Also, girl I met on the subway starts sweet texting me
and on top of that, two girls I banged back home are planning to bus here for next month before Uni and want to stay at my house 'at least one night'

I made a self pact that I want to go 30 days without any sort of fap/sex/***

On the bright side
My **** is always half-chub
and being extremely horny I go on POF/OKcupid and actually talked up a bunch of girls (got 3 numbers) in one day.
Gives me good incentive, if i'm going to get any pleasure its not going to be from my hand

Very bad idea to stay home on a day off. I made that mistake on day 10 last week and i failed, now i'm on day 5.

Going no Fap is supposed to increase your sex drive and make you more aggresive/energetic, i don't think you should abstain from sex, but use no fap to your advantage and try to get more sex with the women you want.

 

[Mr.SomeoneElse]

Day 5 here.
More than half way through the day and I feel fine.
No urges, this day has definitely been the easiest so far.
surprisingly I have noticed a clearer thought process,
not sure if related to nofap or just a good day for me, but as far as work goes, I can figure solutions out much faster than before.

So far so good..

 

[JCballin88]

I just went about 2.5 months without fapping...I can definitely attest to the positives it'll make you feel. The only problem is that when I'm doing this I have involuntary wet dreams at night about once every two weeks - gross!

 

[Mindgamez]

Man I always failed just before reaching 2 weeks! Damn.
Anyway, I have to keep going. I'm at day 3 and I'll keep going.

not mine , i haven't jacked off in over a month , and i feel just as lazy and worthless , but when i stopped cumming for a week i felt alot different , its loosing your sperm , not what causes it , but then again if your deeply ashamed opf jacking off then you will feel better not doing it , i for one don't have that problem

Day 4

 

[Eternal_water]

Question about this porn issue.

I've read all the articles about porn changing your brain and everything.

But what level/kind of porn? Does it just mean all those videos where the do the weirdest and counter productively non sexy things.

Or does it also include 2 people having bog standard missionary sex?

Or even just a clip of 2 people kissing?

day 1

fell of the wagon

day 1

NOOOO! Solomon!


Day 6 here.
Urges stopped,
first 4 days were BY FAR the hardest so far.
Feeling insane amounts of energy now.
Also not feeling as worked at the gym after workouts, which is..different

 

[.rattlebg]

what i did was gradually decrease the intensity of porn i watched (from hardcore down to something less intense) and im noticing that im getting a lot more great hard ons that are not induced by porn. im pretty sure this re-sensitized me by a great deal.

now im thinking of stopping it completely, and with that i can fap wayyy less

 

[Eternal_water]

Ive been reading up on this even more.
The results people are claiming are insane
It makes sense if you think about it..

We're engineered to have sex with woman, constantly
whenever we get these strong urges we just open up a new tab on the internet
Our brains are wired to exert these urges infront of our computer
Which in the long run decreases our need to have good social skills, confidence, alpha mentality, eye contact etc..
By stopping fapping and watching porn
We start to learn that the only way to fullfill these urges are in real life situations, we 'reboot' our brains (takes 90 days apparently) and gain those social skills, idgaf attitude that most men should have.

The withdrawls are supposed to be insane.
I never thought I fapped a lot, I only did it maybe 3-4x a week,
If I cant get to bed on time i fap
with the odd day or week of doing it everyday or multiple times in a day
Not sure if this is average but I thought it was pretty regular

Looking back on it I can't remember a time that i've gone longer than two weeks without fapping, which is kind of ****ed to think about and still say I'm not addicted. This is definitely going to be interesting,
Woke up with strongwood this morning, saluting the world, sad I couldn't do anything about it

..Day 2

What I want to know is what kind of intensity/level material are we talking about hear.

Is it just hardcore porn or something very simple and straightforward like this

http://www.xtravids.com/video/ruslan-and-ludmila-LXHkmjt6i0G.html

or even youtube worthy material

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=td_QzVyF6Cg&feature=g-hist

or even just mild film scene kisses If they have hot actresses

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85t53QmZIc0&feature=g-hist
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Fdl_4SVRDo

Is it everything??

X rated or above...its pretty straight forward

so far I feel like porn de-sensitizes sex (in a bad way, not a way that will make you last longer or anything)
and fapping de-sensitizes you as a human (I feel more aware and awake (day 6)
