    Hi, i've been doing NoFap since december 15th after i saw improvement phills video on the benefits of nofap.

    The first week was hard, but it got easier i havent fapped and dont look at porn anymore, it wasn't really a addiction but more that i just had a lof of free time on my hands.

    The problem is its spring break and my uni is closed next week, im going home and ill have no transportation so the big question is what should i do.

    Just fap and call it a break or keep going.

    Thank you

    Hey my brother, I would HIGHLY suggest that you "Do not masturbate" ... in fact, it's not only a suggestion but I want to TELL you don't do it. The reason being is you'll lose a-lot of progress if you do that and you might not reap the benefits your about to get the longer you go without fapping . Try to find something to do, whether it be a hobby,a chore, etc... Please don't give in... You'll never know the blessings your about to receive if you keep going versus letting one out because of a simple "temptation" .

    P.S. I would also recommend that you read the Success Stories on this website... I think you'll appreciate it and it'll help you along your journey as it has for me . Hope This Helps .

    The answer is no. The reason is that your body and mind won't be satisfied no matter what you do. They will want more and it leads downhill.

    No.

    Just because you're on Spring Break doesn't mean you give in.Same goes for holidays and birthdays man.Keep it going until you're 100% healed.The first real step is admitting you're addicted.

    Study, listen to music, work out. :)
     
  9. Don't fap. Try to get a date instead. There is no benefits of fapping other than release of tension (which can be annoying, so it's understandable why would you want to get rid of it) and quick pleasure (which is also ok to have, but why would you do it yourself when you can do it with somebody else and enjoy it way more?).

    It's like somebody is offering to pay for your meal at whatever place you want; why would you pick a cheap diner when you could pick an expensive quality restaurant, since money is no problem. Same here, all that limits you is what CHOICE you make.

    Of course for addicts like me it's different, there is less choice (cos addiction), so we are working to develop it. But since you are saying that you are not addicted then looking at all the pros (quick release of tension, quick pleasure; worth it?) and all the cons (drained motivation, drained energy, possibly relapse back into unhealthy habits, less developed discipline, etc) the only rational choice (at least from my perspective) to make is not to masturbate.

    Im going to bump this thread again, mainly because i failed literally on the last day of my spring break :(
    So I started again around the 6th of march

    My mistake imo was Even though being on nofap gave me soo much more free time, i was able to fill in that free time with wayy too much exercise and college work, however i never really tried to fix myself but rather just fill the not fapping void with other things to do.

    This brings me to my question, Summer is coming soon and i want to start preparing now, How do i cleanse my mind of just random dirty thoughts. When i say dirty i don't mean "oh hey id fuck the crap out of that girl with the fatass" but rather "she looks hot... i wonder what dating her would be like etc."

    Also while writing this it hit me that, if i use the reddit nofap and the nofap site to get me through not masterbating then arent these two sources just another void like my college work and exercising or is it different? And if so Why?

    Thank you!
