Should I keep "NoFap"?

I assume this is a common problem for people who don't drink. After i started drinking less, i had a thought that do people meet anyone outside of the bars? I mean before that i used to drink a lot, so my understanding of sociality was built on drinking. But it's still a question mark for me that how do sober people meet up or find each other.

But back to the matter. Why are you unsure about whether you should continue no PMO? Also, take those social media posts with a pinch of salt, so to say. People always try to portray the best of themselves in it, leaving all the nasty stuff out of it. I know that everyone has a need for love and that it can be overwhelming sometimes, but meanwhile try to be as happy with yourself as you can. If you have close friends or family, hanging with them might be a good idea too.

 

The mood swings might be partly from the no PMO, or just life in general. We can't be 100% happy all the time. Sometimes the gray days can be "irrational", which especially happens, at least to me, when i'm having flatline. But usually if you're feeling down there is a reason for it, although it is not always crystal clear what the real problem is. It requires a lot of thinking and feeling to find out. I think modern culture is a bit overly glorifying happiness as if we should be euphoric throughout the day. Truth is that there are a lot of adversities which we face, and the feelings these bring up are not bad and they should not be avoided. They of course can feel very painful.

I definitely recommend abstaining for longer. I had at best 35 days streak and i quickly noticed the difference after relapsing. The thing is that when you abstain for long enough it won't be a blissful state all the time. Often people find distractions for their difficult feelings with anything that makes them feel good, porn as one thing. After quitting the distracting action the problems begin to surface. That's why i suggest not to focus only to the wonderful superpowers, but more on healing yourself. I could add that for me after maybe 3-4 weeks my addiction didn't come up as much as physical urges, but i started getting a lot of thoughts about why it would be a good idea to start masturbating again. Eventually i then relapsed because i listened to these thoughts too much.

Strength on your journey!

I would suggest asking God to bring the perfect match to you like He did for Adam and Eve and like He did for me. Since He made us and the universe with all its infinite complexity it's no problem for Him to bring the perfect match to you like He did for me! I was in college working at the college travel Bureau and He brought a beautiful girl from Poland and had her work next door at the alumni office. When I first laid eyes on her she was so beautiful and so I said hello and after some small talk asked her what she was doing that night. The rest is history! Three sons and a grandson now!
I believe God brought my wife to me to bless my life! Thank you Father! As a father I love to be a blessing to my kids, and how much more is God the Perfect Father able to love and bless his children who believe in Him and ask Him?
Matthew 7 -
"Or which one of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a serpent? If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!
