To have more energy and confidence, be a better version of my self. It has a positive impact on my life.
Because: Masturbation and porn are strictly prohibited in Islam (My religion) Refraining from this menace gives me a lot of benefits
I have been on my personal development journey for a while now. I want to be a motivational speaker and help Millenials & Gen z by raising awareness on Personal Development & Mindset. I would like to master Sexual Transmutation of Energy and give fully all of myself to my passion and goals. Masturbation & Pornography takes the energy and depletes me from the course of action I'd like to take.
Everyone that posted has given me a little more motivation. Thank you all for replying. I'm interested to hear about some of these benefits. You got a good streak going.
I remember once i was away from PMO actually i was busy in my life(nofap was not there) and i look back i found that ...the time was full of positivity,focus, confidence and also brightness in face as people said so..i never got to know that time that i nofapped and i was on that benefit
It helps me in tough times. For me its a place of retreat, I return to my NoPmo temple to regain myself. It gives me strenght and mental power. It changes me to supreme me. Since I started with this one year back, I made a huge changes in my life. But sometimes, we loose focus, especially if things turn to hell around us and inside us. Thats the time to set up your good ol rusty timer to 0 and go at it. Which is exactly what I did today. Stay strong and kick some ass everybody!!
My PMO usage escaleted into a fetish that escaleted into illegal and amoral territory. I do not want to live with the guilt and shame of having hurted someone in that way. Increase in energy, I'm a pretty high energy dude already, but with Nofap I'm on a different level, I love excercising and going to raves and dancing my nuts of all night, so that helps. Less anxiety, less deppresion and confusion in general. More focus, which is something I need, as I have ADD and do not want to use ritalin or other drugs I can get as a prescription More spiritual, I feel more pure in a certain way on Nofap, and just smarter and sharper and more reactive. Generally more enjoyment in life, the freedom of being compulsion free, drugs, sexual needs, sugar cravings, all things I strife to let go of. More motivation for pursueing life goals, and wanting to make an impact on the world through music.
Well it's a way to get all of that excess energy out when you're a high energy person. Also a great way to meet new, creative and spiritually minded people. You just gotta filter through the people who are just there to get as high as possible, you'll find a lot of very decent and lovely people. Besides that, I'm a creative person, specificly in the realm of music, hence the username. I also love dancing as a way of expressing myself and finding what's within, it's a meditative state to dance for an hour to hypnotising music and around the high energies that are present at a rave.
I realized I was a porn addict and I needed to stop. I had close to no motivation, had brain fog all the time and I would spend hours subconsciously browsing for porn. I stayed at home majority of the time not going out, didn't really have much energy and I hated waking up in the morning. I wanted to change my life so I felt that doing self improvement would help me get started, then I thought "Hmm, let's try NoFap and see what it really is about". I felt the positive things and decided that both self improvement and NoFap went hand in hand. I've never felt better and energetic in my life until I did my first NoFap streak of 10 days. I want to start living.
