Day 9 finished from tomorrow until friday evening I will be away from home with colleagues so I should safely get to day 12
I burnt through 456$ today but saved about 500$. Having mixed feelings. One one hand I don't like spending so much money on clothes but on the other hand I really only buy what I need and I feel like buying a brand jeans at 50$ rather than 100$ (which I will use for years to come) is a good trade...
My 9th day on Nofap. Since blocking P I've also gone over to blocking websites that I waste time on until 5 pm (reddit for example)
I tend to waste time on the internet in general and this has to stop. After 17:00 I am okay with it, so as to not completely deprive myself from things I enjoy and cause a relapse due to that. However I want to get my work first mentality back.
Alledgedly mass-murderer Ted Bundy was a porn addict and believed his porn addiction to fuel his murdering.
Someone posted in a forum about this the other week, and somebody else responded that that guy was a psychopath who would say anything to avoid taking responsibility for his own actions. I found this response convincing.
7 days offically. 1 week no PMO. hardmode. no peeks. no fantasies. no p-substitutes. nothing. Somehow I don't feel like I deserve it because
Nice people have a tendency to not take the credit. You deserve each and every moment of your victory.
Day 5 finished and day 6 done in some hours. I had a small accident yesterday because of a coworker. I really hope it's no disc prolapse...
Day 2 finished. Ngl relapsing still seems enticing to my primal brain but I am not willing to give in.
Day 1 finished about 5 hours ago. The urges were pretty bad but I managed to endure it. P-blockers are definitely helping with
auto-pilot relapses (aka mindless browsing, peeking and then relapsing). I definitely feel withdrawals. My head is burning and I feel a headache.
Pro tip: When sitting on your computer/laptop wear jeans with a belt. This will make it hard to touch your penis in autopilot.
Unfortunately I had to give up on the willpower-only approach. I have binged to past two days. No fapping but still, I binged on porn.
Good that you're learning, Re:Born. The willpower approach doesn't work—it's like trying to hold back a train instead of letting it pass. As for your p blockers, I suggest you check out this video by Universal Man: https://youtu.be/YEnEJfoGwnA It's concise and outlines the deal very well.
Btw for better strategies on nofap, I suggest you check out Universal Man's Sexual Self Mastery series. It's lengthy but imo worth it. The strategy is quite elegant.
Day 3 done. I was busy today so it can't be accounted to my willpower. The weekend will be the real challenge.
