Does nofap work?

its not scientific in the least, do it if you want but don't expect it to actually change anything

that said it is a fact that the male reproductive system reaches peak performance after 3 days recharge, further waiting will not change anything. So masturbating/having sex only on the third day will make it more enjoyable if you want quality>quantity.

my fetishes got way too extreme so I did nofap for a month, also stayed away from /b/ and all porn

after that month even a nasty pair of tits got me rock hard

A month? Christ. After my 7 days it was like discovering porn for the first time again. How on earth did you last a month?

It took a few tries, I would usually last 4 or 5 days at most. Went on a week vacation with some buddies, was having too much fun to sit down and fap. I was already a week and a half in, further than I had ever gone. It was easier after that. I found that my sex drive died down after the second week, so I wasn't really thinking about fapping anymore. Beware though, once you go back to porn, your sex drive goes into maximum overdrive

I didn't do NoFap, I merely started to severely cut down on porn use and work on a lot of self-improvement (lifting, reading, etc) and socializing (networking, bar hopping, events, etc).

The changes since:
Better sex that also feels better even with condoms
Long lasting. Can edge forever.
Shoot huge loads
More time to do better shit
More energy. Don't need to sleep that often.
Weird fetishes (traps, tentacle, everything hentai, etc) gone

This took a while though because I never quit cold turkey. I just started to have self-control and only fap once in a while and absolutely restrict what kind of porn. I also started to edge but not finish which is truly a self-control work out but also helps with performance.

With that said:

> Does this stuff only work if you have an actual possibility of having sex?

It makes it much much much easier. I definitely fapped more before than now where I'm more experienced and comfortable with dating.

No porn helps, I can attest.

If porn is a problem for you, then it could. It does not work for the reasons stated, however (testosterone buildup...that is scientifically invalid). It works because you exercise self-control and show yourself that the big head controls the little one.

I think porn is the real problem. People have been cranking their willies since time immemorial, but instant access to millions of HD porn scenes tricks your brain into thinking you can be lazy because you're some mighty emporer and your life is conplete because you have the biggest harem of all time.

My husband did nofap on his own account. Was a little weirded out at first because we always felt masturbation (also in a relationship, if done reasonably, you know, without wrecking an abundant sexlife) is a healthy thing to do. But he started having trouble falling asleep without cumming, and when he didn't feel tired enough, once wasn't enough. He felt it was controlling him at some point, voila, nofap.

Got to say he was really enthusiastic about it, and me too. First 2-3 weeks were a real struggle for him (so I helped him out a little more with going to bed early for a good round), but after that it was easy. Believe it or not he soon was less orgasm orientated, was more patient in the sack and enjoyed sex more. Now he was never impatient and always loved having sex, but he and I both noticed sex was more fulfilling for him emotionally. Sex became less of a physical outlet for him, and I guess that made him feel more satisfied and happy. And I love seeing him happy.

I tried a bit of nofap but I fare better with a bit of a masturbation session now and then; I like "the outlet" and it also boosts my libido and level of relaxation. I understood this works for most women (my friends), and that most men benefit from going nofap in a relationship (judging on so many nofap success stories).

When i dont fap i sex my gf more.

Between years single and years in relationships, ive found this to be the sole benefit. Never a change otherwise
