Anybody here successful at nofap? How did you do it?

>>16853882
what is your goal from nofap anon, because almost all of the claims are bullshit

the only thing nofap will do is make you try harder to get in a relationship since you'll be horny all the time

>>16853886
You can't say it's bullshit since everyone has their own subjective effects. Even if it's placebo, that means it still works sometimes. I did it before and noticed my own set of benefits. Now I find it hard for some reason.

>>16853882
get pussy nigga

>>16853891
actually I can very safely say its bullshit since peer review has found no statistical significance for any of the claimed effects

>>16853897
There are no claimed effects since everyone derives their own (placebo). Go read up on the definition of placebo, and then come back to me.

Help me please I'm too messed up on the dr. Uggs

>>16853905
if your only claim is that nofap will give you a nice placebo effect I agree with you, and I'm not sure why you're even bothering to post

>>16853909
Placebo means there are REAL effects due to psychological mechanisms. Not that they are imagined or fake. That's why I said to look up the definition. It's a common mistake.

I kept a diary for mine.
Every day I would either tick it or if I had urges write it down.
Mapping out the progress helped alot, I went to Day 68 or something and relapsed.

>>16853963
How does writing down your urges help?

>>16853967
That whole process helped.
Beating the urges was important too. You look back on that progress list and remember the time when you almost lapsed but didn't and read what it was over - usually something stupid like ass or browsing /b/.

Also use add-ins and block porn sites etc.

Don't tempt yourself

>>16853968
interesting. Why did you relapse though?

>>16853917
you have no idea what you are talking about

>>16853986
And I see you do, given the wealth of arguments you've just given.
Why are you so adamant in defending your masturbation habit? Stop embarrassing yourself. Nobody can force you to stop jerking it. Nofap is for people who want to experiment with self-development, because for many it's an annoying habit. I just don't get it, why do some guys get offended when they hear "stop fapping". Are you that obsessed, or is it to appear contrarian and smart?

>>16853882
work 9 to 10 work hour days (or more if your commute is short anyways) and weekends.

I have to remember to fap just so I don't wake up to a mess.

>>16853986
Are you proud to say you spend 2+ hours jacking off a day?

>>16853882
Just be busy, it's fucking easy then. I work a full time job, see friends daily, have responsibilities at home, have multiple hobbies. If you aren't exhausted by the end of the day, you really didn't do enough that day. Usually I just fap once a week with this kind of schedule.

But beyond a week I actually get negative side effects. I guess I'm harboring a lot of stress, because I legit get night terrors and shit.

Nofap long term isn't reasonable. Work on fapping without porn.

>>16854046
>just be busy
Except you only need 3-5 minutes to do it. You can't keep occupied every minute of the day, or totally focused without breaks. At the end of the day when you're exhausted it's even more tempting to chill out by fapping, even though you might lower your energy for the next day. So being busy doesn't work.

>Last a month or so
>Have some wired wetdream
>I'mtoooldforthisshit.jpg

Honestly haven't tried it since.

I went a month without fapping and I didn't even have to try hard, I was actually trying to build a big load to blow with someone special but we kept putting it off and I kept holding out until I just lost most of my sex drive. I've got it back but I am nowhere near as horny as I used to be and not as often, but on the bright side after all that no-fapping my load was tremendous

>>16854063
It's not reasonable for someone whose main motivation is hedonism, and who finds no value in controlling one's impulses. It's uncomfortable, but getting out of your comfort zone often leads to growth.

>>16854065
Sounds like an addiction honestly. You might want to seek a solution for addictive behavior instead.

>>16854074
Why do you think I started this thread? I'm too broke for a therapist and there's no 12 step program for masturbation. If it is, it's definitely out of my geographical reach.

>>16854065
it might not be to the extent of suddenly being able to nofap for a month, but it does definitely decrease your urge compared to being a NEET and having a full-time job.

I only fap like once or twice a week now instead of everyday.

>>16853891
now that's funny

>>16853882

found a gf/lost my virginity, thought that her pussy was really loose, couldn't cum in her because sex was like washing my dick in the shower. the whole thing didn't last a week.

eventually found another one 3 months later (who knew virgin-vibes were a thing), was confused because I had a hard time getting in, but once I was in it felt like nothing again, realized that it might be me. after a lot of trying and 5 hours of fucking I finally had a tiny orgasm. but she was kind of a wreck at that point.

googled delayed ejaculation, compared the symptoms, ascertained the causes, and I told myself i would no longer masturbate if I at least had sex once every two days.

I haven't made any progress so far but I'm optimistic that nofap will help.

I guess you guys should try and find a definite goal, some progress you can measure (that isn't reset completely if you fail once) to gain a sense of achievement without impossibility..

>19 YO here.

My longest is 2 weeks. Also, many people don't have the similar effects like the others. I am just gonna say how I experienced those 2 weeks. I by character am an introvert, stammers a lot and my voice wasn't too deep.

So, I found this NoFap, that day and decided to fap for the last time and never do it. After reading all the benefits and effects from other people, I was anticipated for the results that are yet to come. Then I came across the fact that the effects kick in at the 3rd or 4th day. 3rd day came in and I didn't find any change that is significant. Okay, 4th day came in and I found a slight boost in my confidence levels and I actually started talking to peoples where in before I never initiated a conversation. The rest of the week I felt more productive and organised. I did far better on presentations than how I used to present before; I stammered less. Professors and other teachers appreciated on my works and on the way I presented. More importantly, I found a slight increase in the number of my friends circle where in before I used to have like 1-2 friends who I'm really close with and I only talked with them.

Coming on to the second week, I noticed the way I talked to girls. I actually didn't had the balls to talk to girls and on the start of the second week of NoFap, I actually initiated conversations with different girls in my class and other batches. I felt real awesome. I felt less anxious and less stressed. I ordered my burgers without that usual social anxiety. I spoke out loud everywhere when before I used to talk like I whispered.

My friend who was on a long leave came back on my 13th day of NoFap and exclaimed the changes in me. She exclaimed of how my sound has changed and how I have changed a lot in my character. I felt super cool that time and didn't know what to reply back.

I did felt urges throughout these days and all I did to get them away was to work out a little bit and visit a park. Overall a 10/10 experience.

Same guy. Continuation.

I relapsed on the 14th day. My dick felt full with the load inside and I had a sensation of it going to explode. I tried a lot not to fap but when I stood naked to get for a bath, I instantly got horny and ended up fapping to a nude.

The next day(which is 3 days back), I felt really terrible. Had trouble concentrating on phone calls, short-lectures and stuff. But I still wanna get a longer streak and make it to 1 year. Hope I do my best and Good Luck to all those who are in the challenge.

I recommend everyone to try it. The feeling you get is really amazing.

>>16853882
I try to go 4-5 days without masturbating. I feel a lot of shame for doing it the day after, so I really work on cutting down

>>16854070
>I just lost most of my sex drive

>but on the bright side after all that no-fapping my load was tremendous

this.

First try I lasted just over 2 weeks. Felt great, lotsa improvements. Had sex with gf the day before, relapsed the day after because i didn't feel empty.

Few months pass, like you said: sex drive almost gone.
Now I just relapsed after 1 month, 1 week and a day (not bullshitting). Benefits almost non-existing except for a bigger load.


Anyway, you guys should read 'The multiorgasmic man' just google it, there's a pdf. it's long as fuck (really, it's a long like lord of the rings fucking long) but it's mindblowingly intresting.

>>16855313

which techniques do you goys use to resist the urges?

>>16853907
