8 days no PMO guys. I read on yourbrainonporn.com the opposite of addiction is connection. It's true, i see in every streak I had I felt I was recovering only when I was in connection with other people. In the last streak I just abstained, I resisted strong urge but then I fell down. That because in that process P was alwys in my mind. I think I need in my mind be only my life, social relation, my study and also my dreams. It is a difficult period for me for I have to study too much for my last exam so I cannot be connected to other people. As soon as my exam has gone I want to grow up in that point. I see relapse are very less frequent but too intense. I reduced them in another point, going to listen to my emotions so PMO was not a vent valve in any time. By connection I am convinced I can close definitively this problem
Hello everyone day 4 and one relapse but I'm still staying strong and will make this. As I also know every one else can too so stay strong every one and keep fighting we got this 180 woo
Thank you guys for the awesome responses. I have a series of presentations on Monday and Tuesday and focusing on them took my mind off things. I am not exaggetaing a bit when I say that, pre-NoFap, I would have been too depressed to focus at such a time. This time, I was able to give the negative-talking part of my brian the middle finger and move on.
Checking in; Day 16, I think. I've been working out in short intervals throughout the day. It's been interesting. My urges seem to decrease when I exercise. Will post again if this holds up for the coming days.
I'm going to check in now, because a hurricane is about to hit my state and I don't know how my internet/power will be. I'm still PMO free and plan to stay that way. Will check in when possible, please don't remove me!
If it's all in 1 day and you haven't relapsed today then you still in. The chaser effect can be difficult to deal with when relapsing so all PMO'ing on the relapse day isn't counted then the following day is a new day. I'll mark you down as 1 relapse. Stay strong!
Sorry guys I've been mia for a while. I got hit by hurricane Harvey and was without power for a while. I'm back and just making an update on here. Today is day 56 no pmo
It's great that you have more control over your thoughts. I am starting to feel similar and I am going to try meditation as I think this will help too. On a separate note, I would love to have fewer vivid dreams; the only time I remember NOT dreaming is when I was under general anaesthetic. Every night I wake up feeling exhausted from all of my dreams, which I can still clearly remember for a short time.
Same scene here. Let's do this. How is a "warrior" expected to perform kegels? And what other exercise regimes are good for us?
Welcome man! Yes lets definitely do this and start living and enjoying our lives. I honestly don't know what excercises will be good for us, i don't do any myself except taking cold showers. Maybe somebody else on this thread does and otherwise maybe try and Google it. Good luck en stay strong man!
Day 37 and #Be_The_Warrior I'm going to be the one of successful warriors among many others. Recently I had strong urges but it has been 2days since I no longer have strong urges, they are kinda mild and controlable so yea #I'll_be_the_Warrior
