My new no-PMO reward system (Thoughts on this?)

I liked your strategy.
I'm on my 4th night today (nights alone are my problem).
A reward system can make difference.

 

Hey, i think it sounds good to be honest it is worth a try. We are different so the same things won't work for all of us. But if it works for you more power to you. Let us know how it goes though. Best of luck to you bro

 

I know some "nice" people they smoke marihuana for years and they can't even speak properly. Good luck with your healthy reward.

 

I heard that marihuana can screw up your memory!

 

I never smoked marijuana before, but I'm also not against it. I think you must have a close look on your overall health and on how it affects you mentally & physically. If you feel good, then there is nothing wrong with it I think. Maybe you shouldn't reward yourself as often as once a week. Maybe once every two weeks or once a month would be better. But since I have no first-hand experience with marijuana, I'm probably not the best person to make recommandations.

Do what works for you. If you're doing good this way, then do it. If not, then don't.

 

Do what best for you. It's better not to plan everything in the beginning, Just add a new task with each passing weeks and make that to a habit.
To your attention: please don't go to marijuana addiction stage and beyond. Please do NoFap for your better health and clear mind, not for a reward.

 

I'd say the less stuff that messes with your brain chemistry, the better. Withdrawal already makes it a mess, beyond what it is from PMO. Just my two cents.

 

Marijuana is a neuro depressant, and it gives you the impression that you're thinking clearer, it hinders your studies. Smoking pot interferes with the same brain parts that porn addiction, the dopamine reward system, and marijuana is addictive, so, you're basically trading an addiction for another.

Besides, rewarding you every week smoking pot is way too much.

This guy gets it.

I smoked pot in the past, and the social part of it is what I miss the most. My former smoke partners are up to no good now. Basically failed in life.

If you still insist on this idea of rewarding yourself with pot, make it once every 2 or 3 months, so it won't affect other parts of your life.

 

We're addicts, which means our dopamine levels are out of whack. The reason we (should) artificial dopamine sources is because it slows down the recovery, by quite a significant margin, and for a recovering addict, it's highly likely that instead of recovery, these sources will replace the original addiction. Any study in the field shows you this.

Which worse: Marijuana or fap hahhahah
Of course fap.
If you are like me that in all 2018 smoked a big joint and go into that transgendered person hipnosys thats make you like transgirls inconsistently, thats a big problem hahaha
But i'm fixing it
Otherwise marijuana is not a problem.
It's like alcohol, you can use in your home or you can use on work and other stuffs, you decide whats better

 

I agree with this gentleman above. You see, you said marijuana is in no way addictive as you went 3 months without it but then still came back to it right? The #1 thing on nofap here is different for different people but what I think most people want to give up are their bad habits and form new ones, not replace them with other temptations(in your case marijuana) no matter how much you think it won't effect you, it already has past by that moment, you will always keep coming back to it. Stuff like these interfere with the natural dopamine levels and give you fake high. Again I won't debate or anything like that as I have no experience whatsoever with myself but have read and seen about it in real life. However I loved your concept of "Level one" and successive progression, just that reward on day 7 is a little too much in my opinion too.

 

You trade an addiction for another, so you're still an addict, I'd say that can be seen as a negative impact on recovery, with the somewhat reasonable assumption that recovery qualifies as 'not being addicted anymore'.
So, a reward, to look forward to, that alters brain chemistry, to give you something to look forward to every week until that sweet moment of release when you can have it? In the context of a brain with a messed up reward system...

 

Ahh. another debate,

conflicting sentences to me.

 

So, you agree that the whole idea is rather...well, crap?
