Has anyone had success with NO FAP? Even a little bit?

I managed over 100 days, which was really great, more confident and energized. It's much more difficult the first few weeks than once you have a long streak. Lost my virginity to a girl I met about 3 weeks into a streak at age 24 (inb4 normie, I've been a perma depressed skeltal r9k poster for over a decade) and I really think I wouldn't have even talked to her if I wasn't doing it.
Now I'm back to fapping errday, mostly without porn since that's clearly the most harmful aspect by far, and I'm fairly apathetic/tired. Every now and then I do it for a while but it's a difficult temptation, despite how good you feel once you get over the pressure and stress of the first few weeks, my low dopamine brain still has difficulty abstaining from short term pleasure in favour of long term gain. Make of that what you will.

So you abstained because you knew it would lead to finding a girl? Or it just happened, and the benefit was unexpected?

I do nofap if I know I will have sex soon. I once did two weeks of nofap before going to a brothel. Unleashed it all with the force of a thousand suns into a hooker's mouth. Felt good.

>felt good
And then you realized how sad your life is for going to a hooker.

I abstained because it really seemed to help me get out of bed in the morning, I didn't really do it with the intention of getting laid. It can have interesting effects that you might not predict... somehow being more horny for actual girls made me less desperate, maybe because I started to lose the association porn produces of being attracted to someone -> getting aroused -> needing to bust a nut. I kinda just started talking to this girl in a relaxed way because I didn't feel driven to nut, and that apparant lack of desperation seemed to make her more attracted. Conversation seems to flow better with abstinence, I get the impression that for thousands of years getting laid hasn't been that hard for guys, it's just that recently we've invented all this shit that's fucked up the natural biology of it, internet, porn, widespread mental and physical health issues, world stress etc etc

I don't get this. I get out of bed anyway even if I'm tired, I just get some coffee right away. Do you mean it fixed your depression, lying in bed all the time?

I have never fapped in my life. Mostly because I don't wanna clean the area that my juice might explode everywhere.

>>36812186
I don't believe you. You must be really low testosterone.

It's a figure of speech, I just felt more zeal for life, like I wanted to go and do things and experience things, not in the usual sense of obligation but genuine desire. It's a subtle thing, I think there is power from consciously delaying a pleasurable stimuli, whether it's junk food, movies, porn, drugs, TV, games, whatever.

>>36812227
>I wanted to go and do things and experience things
Yeah but don't you think that's still searching for pleasurable stimuli?

>>36811901
I started thinking about raping my sister or getting a hooker so I fapped again after 2 weeks of nofap.

>>36811901
You need a girl to liberate the sexual tension, even kissing a girl will make you go days without fapping, or just being deeply in love

I want to try it but it seems pretty hard for me.

I work drawing porn and that means I have to look at porn everyday. Whenever I'm drawing I get so fucking aroused I have to masturbate and then after that i end up really tired.

It's and endless cycle
>have to draw
>dick gets hard after drawing for a couple minutes
>masturbate
>stop drawing because too tired
>repeat

Takes forever to get things done and I also have to look at porn for reference a lot.

>>36812313
The point is to stop having sex with your hand so you can be horny for an actual girl and be able to maintain a good relationship where you don't lose interest for her in favor of unrealistic pornography.

>>36812203
When you live in a small house with the family, it becomes impossible to fap. Plus I don't wanna clean after detonation.

Have you never thought about the bathroom? And using tissues to clean up?

>>36812454
Honestly masturbating doesn't interest me at all. I would like to get a load off? But I think a real girl can accomplish that. Hopefully this date I got with a belly girl on Tuesday blossoms into a relationship and I can relieve myself.

>>36812506
Stay pure anon. Masturbation is like a drug that is always readily available.

anyone else /trying for baby/ and nofapping between ovulation periods?

>>36812506
What's a belly girl? Dancer?

>>36812762
he means fat oregano

To some extent, although I think it all operates on scale, from hard work with minimal distant reward, versus the instant gratification variety. There's a need for balance, as indulging in the shorter term pleasures seem to push against the ability to persist in the longer ones. It seems like only a recent phenomena that you can even partake in a lifestyle that minimizes delayed rewards so much, such as in the case of the modern NEET. The buffet of quick pleasure quickly begins to taste stale once it begins a staple food.

>>36813130
How can you ever reorient yourself from an instant gratification lifestyle that's been going on for so many years, to a way of delayed gratification? It seems impossible

>>36813222
It's certainly very difficult, as the slavery of most people to social media can attest. I think changing your enviromental factors to be conducive is helpful, you can't rely on willpower alone. I'm planning on buying a phone without internet and using that instead of my iphone, that's one potential step. I think surfing the net, social media in particular is really insidious, because it's implanting a huge variety of factors, ideas and choices without giving you time to process them. You go from war, to social comparison, memes, to SJW arguements, recipes, chatting, youtube links, documentaries on and so. I try to keep in mind the power of reducing potential actions.

It does seem that the brain is quite flexible and will respond quite noticably even within a week to reducing some of these stimuli. I've seen 90 days thrown around as being the general number for a good nofap reset. It really depends if you can create meaningful things to do and be involved in delay gratificiation. If all you do is stop fapping but still sit around on the PC all day/night relapse seems inevitable.

Arm fat like that turns me on in a weird way. Usually it's when it's just a little noticeably pudgy, but that massive smooth blob is oddly appealing too.

She could easily smother you in a wrestling match

Do you have an email, messenger, etc? I would love to talk about these subjects with you.

The men who go to hookers are more often than not Chads. Robots are too beta to go to hookers.

>>36813592
An alpha seduces women, doesn't pay to have sex with them. You don't need to seduce hookers, that's why they're visited by mostly betas.

I could make a throwaway email, I wouldn't want to post anything to do with my identity on here. I don't want to give you the impression I'm all that accomplished, just another anon who's read some books and tried a few things

>>36813749
Yes, but make you sure you check it because I won't be back online until Monday (going on a trip). If not, just send your skype or whatever to https://www.mailinator.com/psychbee2 and I will get back to you

>>36813829
sorry, I meant [email protected] I'm not really used to this

>>36813857
Sent you an email (original post)

Not sure if you will check that account before it expires, so you can reach me at [email protected]

Not yet, but at 100 days of nofap you'll go the ancestral aryan land of Hyperborea.

I managed to be 3 months without fapping. I was 14 at the time, so I don't remember well if things (behaviour, confidence) were different. But when I fapped after this period of time, blew a huge load in ~30 seconds.
I tried it again last year, around February or March. Managed to get a week and 2-3 days. I remember being really stressed and angry with everything. A friend of mine said "Go beat your meat. It will make you better." and it did.
Since then, I haven't tried nofap. Only unintentionally, such as going on family trips or not having time on the weekend.
I do want to try it again, though. My routine is much more relaxed than before, so stress won't be a problem.

There better be blonde bitches in wheatfields

I'm firmly addicted, can't even have a social life, I should just end it.

>>36811901
Well your picture turned my morning wood flacid and now I don't even want to masturbate, so thanks for that

>>36815044
Just get on anti psychotics and wave your flaccid dick around for a bit and you'll realize how much self control is worth
