I have a really bD gan Perhaps it is us who are evil and comparing porn with the one ring isn't justifiable because porn doesn't deserve that rank and one thing more porn is a compulsion not addiction so you can't just blast it into Mordor and didn't you know what happened to Bilbo even when the ring was destroyed he was still fancied by it.so Guess what it's not a fight against evil it's against us and in fact it's not a fight at all it's rehab and behavioral improvement and redemption
It's true that we can't destroy our addiction the way the ring is destroyed in mordor. The idea is merely a fun way to illustrate how long we have come on our journey. Even after 500 days if we make it to wizard, we are not free from the addiction. We never fully are. But it's fun to have some steps and that's why the author of the thread has made the analogy to the ring and the journey. Otherwise we would just be writing "checking in". This way it becomes a little fun with new milestones and ultimately a "completed" journey even though the journey will obviously continue for the rest our lives not just 500 days. Nobody is claiming porn/addiction is in any way something that should be put at the same level as Tolkiens masterpiece. Think you are over-analyzing a little, after all a lot of people seem to be enjoying the thread and the concept, inlcuding yourself. Good job getting 2 days down, keep up the hard work
Mithrandir I really agree to your notion and I love it but I discovered something very upsetting here https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...FjApegQIBBAB&usg=AOvVaw3pH06IrkcN2BwhLCcYXPcE It said our addiction is nothing and I'm frustrated
I PM'd you so we don't highjack this thread, so reply there instead. But long story short: 1. People who make money of porn will try to convince the world that nofap is a lie 2. It's an addiction to me personally and most people on this forum so the articles arguments back and forth about the brain, definitions of addiction and so on are not really relevant or interesting But reply to my message if you want to discuss so we don't highjack this thread for everybody
Checking in. Special goal - to reach 111 days, the number of years Bibo celebrated at the beginning of LOTR.
Congratulations brother!!!! You have reached the Black Gate of Mordor. You´re a Dwarf King now!!!! The Black Gate is closed and heavily guarded by porn forces, so now you must take the passage to Minas Morgul. Let´s go!!!!!!!
Congratulations brother, you´re now a URUK-HAI, still a slave to porn evil, yet the desire to break free grows even further. Let´s go brother, unlock the chains!!!!
already? time sure flies . Congratulations brother!!! you have rank up . Keep fighting brave URUK-HAI!!!!
well, i don´t see it that way bro. anyway this is a role-playing challenge, just have fun . let´s go!!!!
Wow 25 days! But I am sick and have a flatline and it sucks! I had two wet dreams last night. Unfortunately I peaked I guess 2 days ago. Or yesterday. I do not know. Can someone please explain what is going on with NoFap? Is truth that the porn industry wants to shut down our community?
I got through day 7 and feeling pretty great about it didn't think I could get this far at the beginning of this. Keep it up everyone wish you all the best!!
