    Day 22

    I feel so energized constantly. It's like i could run an entire business if i would take the time to do so.
    Speaking to stangers feels so pleasant. Normally i'm a really shy and insecure guy but the last couple of days i feel comepletely different.

    I don't want to jump to conclusions too fast but i think i'm healed. :):):):)

    Day 25

    Hello brothers. I'm on day 25 right now and have the highest self esteem ever.
    2 days ago a neighbor, which i really like mocked me because of ordering some stuff via amazon (around 4 packages), which he accepted.
    Because i'm unemployed till feburary 2024 he thinks he can mock me all the time without me standing up for myself.
    But not with me!
    As he was on vacation on the other hand, i accepted 10 of his packages without complaining.

    So i told him, that i was so kind to accept his packages and did not complain and that i don't understand why he complains accepting my packages, which were even less than his packages.
    He instantly went silent and was very nice to me afterwards.

    That's how you have to handle such a situation.
    Normally / before quitting porn i would've let that pass - but not anymore.

    Controling my "negative emotions" feels alot easier right now.
    I also feel like, i'm attracting more girls and get more respect from strangers.
    But i don't have the need, to interact with women haha. :D

    Whish you a great evening.

  4. Hello my friend. First of all, I would like to sincerely congratulate you for not becoming addicted again after relapse. Because many of us made this mistake and lost hope, thus porn addiction doubled. This includes me. But you tried again on the 27th day, even though you had a relapse. If you have the willpower to do this, you also have the willpower to never masturbate again in your life. Keep going, you will definitely succeed. And I have a little advice for you. You take PMO very seriously, yes it is a dangerous condition but don't worry too much about it. This will stress you out. Just see if you're moving on at the end of the day and write it in your journal. That was another mistake I made. have a bee in one's bonnet. Just be aware of the dangers of porn. Because NoFap is a normal situation and not a great success, you are just getting out of the swamp you entered, so don't be hard on yourself. I wish you healthy and porn-free days.

    Do you have any advice against wet dreams? That's my main reason for failing.

    Hello brother,

    thank you for your kind words. It was actually really hard to not relapse again after my relapse post 28 days semen retention. That was caused by the socalled chaser effect, which intensifies your need for sexual activity after actual sexual activity or porn binging. But i got through that phase, which only lasted 3 days or so and now i'm here at day 26 again.

    To be honest relapsing after 28 days of semen retention felt really demotiviating at first, because i almost got to the point of reaching my goal of 30 days no pmo and faild closely to the finish line. But i bit through that and thought to myself, that neither the porn industrie nor external circumstances will ever be able to stop me from reaching my goals and fulfillment in life and i continued!

    You are totally right. Worrying and thinking about abstaining constantly is doing more harm than helping you reach your goals. Instead you should live the nofap lifestyle and not think about it that often. That's why i only update you on my jouney every now and then, instead of posting daily updates like i used to weeks ago.

    Also nofap alone won't cure all of your problems. You have to use nofap as fuel to solve all of your problems yourself.

    Whish you the best of luck my friend. ;)

  7. Hello. You can't do anything against wet dreams. This is about your subconscious. But if your subconscious is clean, there will be no dreaming. If it is not clean, you have to clean it, otherwise these dreams will haunt dont you. First, distract yourself with something else and then never watch porn again because everything you watch is instantly recorded in your brain and it is not easy to delete it. You can't delete it anyway, but if you ignore the porn content, you will get rid of this problem.

    First of all -a wet dream is no relapse, but can cause a relapse.
    I've listed 4 tips / suggestions to prevent them:


    1.Don't drink water 1 - 2 hours before going to bed -because having to pee can increase your P size and make you horny.
    2. Don't let porn or even sexual related thoughts happen -because they activate the same brain areals that are activated watching porn. This can cause some porn related dreams which are causing wet dreams.
    3. Don't beat yourself up over wet deams -they are part of the journey and a healthy reminder, that the body gets rid of old sperm.
    4. Most of us feel weak and horny the day after a wet dream, because your body restores lost sperm and the chaser effect is taking place. The chaser effect appears, when you had sexual contact or watched porn, or in your case had a wet dream and makes you feel horny the day after. Try to get out of the house, excercise and get into public for most of the day in order to prevent a possible relapse.

  9. I would like to see you on the 90th day. because it feels so good. I don't know if you've experienced this, but on the 90th day, your body returns to normal and now these stupid hornies are minimized, so your feelings become like a normal person.
    success again. I wish you healthy and porn-free days

    Day 90 is just a number. What really counts is the rewiring process that takes place in your brain. For some people this process takes place on day 20 for some on day 70 and even day 500+ -it depends on many factors like the damage you did to your brain watching porn, the ability of the brain to heal itself, external factors like stress etc and what type of lifestyle that you live.
    For example, for a person that does nofap but does not work out and spend time in nature, the brain will heal less efficient than the brain of a person, who works out and spends time in nature.

    Right now i don't feel horny at all -just focused on my tasks and a little depressed (which could be due to sleeping problems the last night haha).

    Wish you the best of luck again. ;)

    Day 27

    Taking too much caffeine friday evening resulted in me having poor sleep. So yesterday i took a day off the gym to regenerate and relax.
    It's crazy how your sleep effects your testosterone levels. I felt like a castrated dog haha. :D

    I also felt a little depressed and anxious today and now i'm just tired. I think that is because of sleeping so poorly on friday.
    I'm looking forward for this night -i will get my sleep back!

    Day 28

    My cryptonite day haha. If you follow my posts, you will know, that i relapse the last time on day 28.

    Today i felt really tired and a little bit sick. But pushed trough my workout and tasks anyway.
    I'm also easily hooked by my phone and computer -if it would be up to me and if i id not have such a great self control, i could sit in front of my tv all day. :D

    I coped that state with vitamin c and more food than usual.
    If i get great sleep tonight i think the next day will be better. :)

    DAYYYYYYYYYY 30!!!!!! :emoji_muscle::emoji_muscle::emoji_muscle::emoji_muscle:

    I completed my 30 days of semen retention.
    Right now i feel very proud of my self for abstaining so long and without thinking too much about porn in those 30 days.

    The plan for today is to get really comfortable, order some pizza and watch P!
    Haha, just kidding! :D:D:D

    The next step will be to reach the 45 day mark. Thanks for your support and kind words in that time! I'm really greatful for that.

    Ps. i won't be active for the next 4-5 days, because i'm not at home -so don't wonder.
    See you soon!!

    I also have to mention, that my testosterone is really high right now.
    Which results me in having (almost) wet dreams. :D
