So I'm approaching 60days on nofap. Things have been going great so far. I was doing extremely well in my class at University and I was hitting the gym regularly. With all the stuff I was doing I stayed busy and my mind stayed off of porn usage. Now however due to the Coronavirus my school and gym have both been shutdown. My classes are now online and I have some workout equipment at home the biggest issue I have is the social withdraw. Any and all tips are welcome.
What helps me is knowing that everyone is going through the same now. That however is a good way to get into social media with your friends, chat, skype, discord, if you are playing games, play co-op, things like this... sure, not seeing anyone face to face for a longer time feels heavy but after this whole shit is over we will all have new happiness in life. That might get the best summer of our lifes!
Reading, do some exercise in your house? Clean the house haha! Listen to some music, watch some movies. Call / skype with friends.
I have been cleaning a lot. Doing that while listening to music really helps to take my mind off of it.
I've been going for long walks. Ah, SEX well, forget about that. I haven't seen any cops and if I do they will just tell me to go home. OK, FINE. I also go to the grocery store and find somebody who wants to talk, from 6 ft. away for a few minutes with my bandanna on. Just a few minutes gives me a good feeling. I stay light, make jokes and buy something simple. The checkout guy asked me if everything was alright, today. I said,"yes but don't kiss me." We all laughed. I've been buying 85% fat free ground sirloin and provolone cheese, and fresh fruit. It's easy to took. Just warm it up and pour off the excess grease. I've lost 2 lbs.; and stopped watching the news on TV. I just switch between news and Spotify and reading. Lucky me. My roomie caught the bug, so I'm carefully taking care of him too. Oh, and cleaning everything. That's my story. Be Well...
Stay busy at home, write a list of productive things you can do everyday and then do them. If you're busy doing stuff your mind won't wonder back to porn.
He has become one of my favorite speakers to watch on Youtube. I am definitely going to be doing that.
