Hello guys i have 40+ days on nofap i didn't watch porn or masturbate or orgasm but the only thing i do is to touch my penis to get it hard or just look at it and it gets hard without touching,is this bad for my reboute i cant keep my hand away from it, i just cant leave it,i like that my erections are much stronger now on nofap and i can get an erection really really easy,so to keep it simple i touch or just look at my penis to get an erection is this bad??, i don't edge. I'm waiting for your answers,thanks for your time
It's dangerous. First, it will get easier and easier for you to relapse. Because when you get an erection, your mind is in an evil state. Gradually, it will become inertia of mind which always makes you think of porn. It would potentially enhance the risk of relapse. Second, erection itself is terrible for your body. When you are erecting, your prostate gland starts working. With time goes on, you may feel humid under your penis. Guess what is that liquid? It's not your sperm, it's your prostate fluid which can help lubricate your ejaculatory duct when you ejaculate. After that, you may feel itchy. If you keep doing that every day and multiple times, it may incur prostatitis. I am not a pro, but erection is a function of sex, if you are not doing sex and just play your dick, then that's the abuse of your sexual organ. ABUSE IS ALWAYS NOT GOOD.
You are doing well though, keep it up. I failed, again and again, I think you should share your experience too.
thanks for your reply,first of all you made me nervous,i've done it many days, i dont know if i made a problem but if i stop right now doing it will be all ok?
i would like to help you but the only thing that i do is to just remember my goals for example i dont want to be addicted to anything,i want to have a healthy life,i dont want to dissapoint my future girlfriend or wife,i dont want to be that nervous in general,i think the penis is one of the most important organs in our body so i want to keep it healthy
the only thing that im afraid of is if this thing that im doing risking my health,im really sure that i will not relapse because i have a really strong will power
You will be fine if you don't get an erection on purpose. In the morning, you may get an erection automatically, that's normal.
When i was on pmo i get morning erections every day but now that im on nofap i have every some weeks,they say that this is normal because the brain is trying to reboot
Yes, it is normal. Scientifically, your body is trying to balance your internal secretion level because in the past your secretion level keeps in a high level, nutritions in your body were always delivered to your genital system to compliment sperm. Now your body is just transferring to the normal mode. The progress is very slow, after two more months you will feel the difference. The feeling is called "refreshed".
So being horny is always bad? I have very much erections too because I always get horny when I see a hot girl but I don’t edge.
I am in same boat as you. I play with my penis in shower and sometimes stretch my penis before going to bed. BTW how do you get good erection than before ? By playing with your penis ? Obviously it is a good sign if you notice better erection. My problem is I can't get a decent erection and if I do it does not last for long.
every day since i started nofap i wash my penis,one day as i was washing my penis i got really hard,i touch my penis and it was stronger than the day before like rock with skin,i always had strong erections like wood but now it is much stronger ,this thing happened to me instantly,the day before it was ok as ussual and the day after i noticed that it was much stronger,so one day i'm sure you will feel the same thing,just keep on no pmo,i'm on day 46 right now and i was stretching,touching my penis since when i started,just to look how the erections goes.I asked others and all say that this is not good for my health so from yesterday i'm trying to not touch it,only when i go to pee or to wash it,btw i always get an erection when i have a shower because clean it well,so i don't think i got stronger erections from playing with my penis,i think that the penis over time when you stop masturbating and watching porn heals it self,or because i'm more horny right now and i want to cum.As for the duration i don't know how long my erection can last because i stop touching it or looking at it so it get back to normal,i just touch it a little to get it hard and see how it works then i stop. I think that this nofap thing works,i'm curious to see what else will happen
i get erections every day because of touching it a little or just fantasizing,i don't edge too,as i understand from others they say just don't touch it,if the erections come alone there is no problem,i'm not sure of that,but it is very hard for me and for you i think to just stop think or touching it
Actually, most men are horny, but some of them can overlook the horny thoughts. So being horny is normal, the key is to accept the fact that you are horny and give yourself some positive hints like, " Yes, I am horny, so what? I like playing sports and studying, in addition, I am also a sociable person." Try to encourage yourself instead of depressing yourself like, "Oh shit, I am terrible. I just peep that girl for a while." Taking action is the best way to eliminate anxiety and depression. Sometimes, listening to favorite music can help you relax from emotional pressure.
