A 40-days report

I have completed 40 days without PMO. This is a list of the benefits I have experienced during this period.

1. The skin of my penis is soft again.
2. My testicles look bigger and stronger.
3. I have gained 1.8cm in length and 1cm in girth. Now my size is like how it was some years ago.
4. Along with nofap, I started a diet and I have lost 6-7 kgs.
5. I have joined a gym and I work out 3 times a week. I intend to increase it to 4 after I finish my university paper.
6. 7 hours of sleep are enough for me to rest. Previously, 8 hours could not be enough at all.
7. I'm feeling more masculine. The mere fact that I don't spend my fluids for a picture or video makes me feel more of a man. I look much more at girls than I did, because no sexual release makes you look for real girls. I still need to work better on getting to know a girl and flirting (It's been 7 months without a gf).
8. People comment on how more attractive I look.
9. My skin is more "shiny", especially on my face. Previously, I used to have some spots - even though I'm 26 - but they have disappeared and my skin looks much healthier.
10. My voice is more steady and a little bit deeper than it was.
11. I take care of my body, my hair, my beard and I don't look like a Neanderthal any more.
12. I clean and take care of my house.
13. Feelings of loneliness have disappeared.
14. In March I started experiencing some pain on my penis. My doctor examined me and found nothing. He told me it's perhaps due to stress. I believe it was also due to excessive masturbation. Now I almost don't feel any pain at all.
15. I'm never dirty, I take a shower almost every day. And I love cold showers now in summer.
16. My everyday routine is much more structured. Back when I was PMOing I almost did nothing during my day.
17. I feel happier and more active.
18. I mostly have fantasies about real girls I meet everyday.
19. I enjoy music once again (I'm a musician, as well). In the deep state of the addiction, I had lost my appetite for music. Now it has emerged out again.
20. I have claimed my life back again

But I've still got some problems.
1. My porn-induced fantasies have not disappeared. And if I think of them, I become super-horny and out of my mind. The panic button has helped me a lot in this. Thank you, panic button!
2. I still cannot focus completely on my homework (I'm a graduate student). This seems to be a bigger problem and PMO cannot be the only factor to affect it. During the first days of my streak, I had this constant feeling to put my hand on my penis when I studied. Now this is no more, but focusing is difficult sometimes.

Overall, a life without PMO is a good life. I'm so proud I have quitted this bad habit. And till now I haven't relapsed at all. I hope I will not till my 100th day, which will be the final day of my streak. And I hope my porn-induced fantasies will have disappeared by that day.

 

Great report. Very inspiring. I also have the porn induced fantasies come back. I work with various New Age healing modalities. I have learned how to use various energetic tools. One tool is called the "Break command". You can use this when a repetitive mental structure keeps coming. When I find the porn fantasies coming back I say either mentally or out loud, break, break, break over and over until the thoughts disappear. I also use the word shatter and the words "go into the light". I share this in case anyone might find it useful. I do find it works, often in the morning when I awake the fantasies start rolling and start break, break, break, break, shatter, break, and soon the thoughts dissolve. Anyone is free to PM me about this.

 

Thank you, man. I didn't know there was such a thing, but generally I'm not really into New Age stuff. Has it worked well for you, then? My fantasies also happen mostly during the morning. What I say is stop stop stop now. So am I doing it?

 

Yes. Stop is great too. If you like try Break. The thoughts are like a solid mass and saying break, breaks it up into little pieces so it can dissolve. But Stop is great. Do what works for you.

Good luck with everything.

 

Congrats for your achievements!!!

 

I'm glad my story was of some help to you. Be strong, brother, resist, and you'll enjoy all these benefits.

 

PMO addiction fucks up with your artistic nature. I stopped writing or playing music when I was a heavy addict. Stop PMO addiction and be an artist once again.

 

I'm happy that my story could be of help to you! But make your story, man!
