List of signs of Recovery

Welcome brothers,

When I look back to my starting days of NoFap (over a year ago), I was very curious and anxious about the positive results that every seemed to get. I have already experienced so many of them over a period of 11 months with many streaks. I will tell of all the benefits I have felt, noticed and experienced.

1. Calmer mind. This one was hard to obtain. My mind became more calm only after I limited artificial stimulation. I cut out videogames, music, screens, sugars and laziness for 40 days. It was really hard sometimes, but I felt such a calm and sincere happiness during that period. As if I had nothing to worry about instead of being happy and just being mindful of my life.
2. Increased motivation. My motivation already spiked after 4 days. Somehow I already started feeling really good after 4 days. Just the feeling of not wasting my vital energy by PMO gave me empowerment. My motivation to accomplish things increased tenfold. I wanted to do so much and achieve so many. NoFap is a catalyst for improvement and pro activity.
3. Wet dreams. WET DREAMS. I had never had a wet dream in my life before I started doing NoFap. Wet Dreams do feel a lot better than PMO, do NOT drain me of my powers and also are a great sign of the re balancing of your dopamine. Wet dreams show you that your body is losing it's grip over PMO and choosing the way to function it was made to function.
4. More vivid and wonderful dreams. I have always dreamed, but since I had some good streaks in NoFap, I started dreaming every night with at least 3 dreams I can remember in great detail. And I can tell you, I have had some beautiful dreams that actually made me happy. That also includes healthy sexual dreams.
5. Morning Wood. I can't remember having had morning wood before NoFap. Now I get morning wood every night. It was a very slow and gradual improvement at first, but right now I get morning wood every night with sometimes decent quality, most mostly just really good ones.
6. Nearly being cured of PIED. I say nearly, because I have not yet been able to get a 90 day streak done. I relapsed so many times... But I did notice in my longest streak of 82 days that around day 40 I got really good results. Around day 40 I got such a massive boner one night that I just freaked out. I had a dead dick for 40 days and out of nothing (I was just eating), I got a boner that felt like a steel rod. In the upcoming weeks I was able to get a really strong boner just by thinking of very mild romantic situations. And when I kissed a girl on the 82nd day I got a boner as well.
7. Enjoying life more. This happened after around 30 days. Somehow the feeling of having abstained for 30 days made me feel great and like a warrior. I mean, like, whoever around me was doing that? No one, exactly. I felt so good.
8. Increase in female attraction. This happened at weird moments, but around day 70, until I relapsed at day 82, I noticed that women smiled at me more and were more aware of me. This in turn made me more confident and made me smile as well.
9. New perspective on women and relationships. This happened only after multiple streaks. I can remember being into NoFap only for the girls. All I wanted was to get better with girls and doing NoFap to become more attractive to girls. That was many months ago. Now I finally see that NoFap is the way to unlock the inner warrior in yourself that wants to get shit done and work hard to progress in life. I do NOT want to have endless sex and women around me. I want to achieve my goals. I do, however, would enjoy having a supportive woman by my side. This view is much different to my old view of just wanting to get many girls and get laid. Now I do not care about that. I don't even look at girls anymore unless I think she is a good candidate for a relationship.
10. Better quality of sleep. I sleep better since NoFap. this happened as soon as 1 week in.
11. Better results in the gym. Somehow, after I got into around 20 days of NoFap back in february, I finally broke my plateau and made some serious gains. This shit is epic.
12. Clearer and more awesome skin. My skin just looks clear and healthy. I enjoy looking in the mirror. This happened after some weeks I guess. But I can't remember correctly.
13. No more fear and anxiety. I feel like I can take on any task and I feel like I am meant to be fearless. Being fearless does not mean not being nervous, but means knowing that you can handle the situation and that nothing can wear you down. This feeling came after many streaks and falls. Since my last streak this fearlessness finally kicked in. That is about 100 days for me.

 

As a nursery student I think I can explain why! Since your hormones are now balanced again, like testosterone, your body has a much better chance of keeping your skin healthy 24/7. The same with food. Food literally makes you who you are, and most NoFappers also eat better when on NoFap, and your skin literally conforms to this.
