    So been wanting to join NoFap for a while but couldn't muster up the courage. Funny how you sometimes have to hit the bottom to start to see the top. I have tried to stop masturbating many times but never thought of being part of a community to support me doing this. So...I am trying no porn, sex or jerking off for the next 7 days...starting..now.

    Really looking forward to being part of this community. Cheers.

    Day 3 since I joined NoFap. Not too challenging at the moment but I am
    also on vacation and not in my regular routine. Though I admit, seeing a new good looking guys at the beach made me think a few things I wanted to control. Nothing led to fapping though. Feeling in control is something new for me and hope I can get to my personal 7 day NoFap Challenge. Thanks for cheering me on.

    Day 10, NoFap. This is the longest streak for me to not view porn or jerk off. Does anyone else feel it is easier than expected? At what point does it get more difficult? I notice as long as I am around friends or family, my mind doesn't wander to thoughts of arousal. It's when I am alone at night, or trying to sleep, that the urge is noticeable. Maybe that's normal, since at night is when I miss my partner and want that closeness from another person. My partner gave me this article to read, and it's pretty powerful. Thought I would share it and see what you all think...Resist. Stay Strong.

    Like for me the start was a little hard since i had hardcore urges but since then starting a new streak after a relapse was easy after i passed the 2 week mark
    last streak i had i relpased on day 68 and i noticed that after i hitted 60+ on the streak im currently on i got hard urges again
    before i never really had urges but now i have them again idk why i often have them at work or also when im home alone because i have to much time to think
    but im not relapsing this time i notice the longer i go the better i feel and after relapsing i will feel like shit and think it was not worth it and i have to start again from day 0
    But i think you have to fail at the start because you can learn the best from your mistakes!
    Also with time this whole "why am i even doing things feeling" comes
    since you feel the positive side effects from nofap at the start and with time you just get used to it but im sure you can get even more positivity from nofap
    like i cant describe it i just notice that i feel better then ever before and its getting better everyday i cant even imaging how i will feel and how my life will be in a few months but i know it will be great

    when i have urges at home i watch some nofap success storys on youtube or read them on this site here

    Also this video really helped me he is also a great nofap youtuber with amazing content check out his channel


    If you need any tipps on youre journey just ask :)
