/nofap/ general

Are you just doing nofap to get laid? Whats your longest streak? Mine was one year

>>38192631
>doing /nofap/ until I get laid
You may want to pick a more realistic goal there, bub

I relapsed last night because I couldn't sleep

I fapped yesterday, but strangely I felt absolutely fantastic after the relapse and still today, normally it's the opposite

I'm almost on month 2 of my no fap. Feelin good

>>38192631
I'm starting today, what are some good tips for a newbie like me?

>>38194151
Don't open sexy thumbnails and keep yourself busy.

>>38193382
Not really but if I somehow end up getting laid then I will obviously break no fap since you're having sex after all. Won't master bate though.

>>38193411
That's the whole point, it's unrealistic

>>38192631
Havent fap since december 31st, i plan to keep until the end of the year or until i have sex

I got laid this morning and still jerked off later after she went to work. It doesnt do anything to do nofap unless you have some serious testosterone level problems.

starting day one again after fucking up

>>38194669
Just take it one day at a time man and dont look at sexy pics on these nsfw boards you can do it

Day 21 is where it's at.

>>38194915
What's different about Day 21? Or are you just saying that you are currently on Day 21?

>>38194569
>It doesnt do anything to do nofap unless you have some serious testosterone level problems.
what do you mean?

>>38194966

Just that in my experience, by Day 21 most of the benefits are readily apparent to me. It usually takes me AT LEAST a week to start feeling better, and 21 days in general is where I feel really good.

Nofap has been very easy for me thus far, rounding to nearly 430 consecutive hours. I just don't find porn attractive, so I suppose that I have a leg up already.

No fapped for two months
Made me actualy start growing facial hair
At the end had best orgasm ever
Followed by biggest depression ever

Also fun fact the less upyou ejaculate the higher the risk of prostate cancer

>do nofap
>reach day 7
>can feel my pulse in my balls
>penis is constantly leaking precum
>want to fuck my sister now
>ended up having a dream about jerking off and blew a load all over my bed in my sleep

>>38195833
and the more water you drink the higher chance you are to choke and die, dumb fuck with ur statistics

>>38195506
>most of the benefits are readily apparent to me
what actually are the benefits? considering trying it for the first time

>>38196030

For all I know you won't have any, all I know is that for me, after more than a week:

>Fall to sleep easier at night
>Wake in the morning more rested, not feeling tired still
>Slightly deeper voice (to the point that other people comment)
>Better ability to concentrate on things like reading, it actually becomes enjoyable and I can last more than 20minutes at a time

After about 21 days:

>Feel much more confident in general, energised
>I'm more emotional in a good way
>Dreams are intense and vivid, I remember them in the morning
>More creativity, more focus

These are just things off the top of my head.

>>38192631
>I'm on day six of /nofap/ and still no significant changes other than being a bit hornier. I'm intending on doing /nofap/ till I get laid.
lel, enjoy your cancer.

never fapping again.

This is the myth that will not die.

>This article does not contain medical advice, and is intended to be general in nature.

It's clickbait. Mention masturbation\sex and say it's the result of science and people will click, chronic masturbators will use it as justification, just as triggered non-vegans use stories of children who were starved to death by irresponsible vegan parents as justification.

From wiki:

>While the available evidence is weak,[48] tentative results suggest that frequent ejaculation may decrease the risk of prostate cancer.[49] A study, over eight years, showed that those that ejaculated most frequently (over 21 times per month on average) were less likely to get prostate cancer. However, the researchers asserted "ejaculation frequency was not statistically significantly associated with risk of advanced prostate cancer" and concluded "our results suggest that ejaculation frequency is not related to increased risk of prostate cancer".[50] The results were broadly similar to the findings of a smaller Australian study.[51]

Also here's an article\study that claims that increased masturbation in men 20-30 (likely most of the people reading this comment on r9k) INCREASES risk of prostate cancer:

http://www.webmd.com/prostate-cancer/news/20090127/masturbation-and-prostate-cancer-risk#1

>For men in their 20s, "frequent masturbation" was two to seven times per week. Compared to same-age men who reported masturbating less than once per month, 20-something frequent masturbators had a 79% higher risk of prostate cancer by age 60.

>For men in their 50s, "frequent masturbation" was one or more times per week. Compared to same-age men who reported never masturbating, 50-something frequent masturbators had a 70% lower risk of prostate cancer.

In both cases, the evidence is weak. It's based on SURVEYS, and the results are always jumping around. There isn't enough evidence either way.

I get the lower back ache thing as well, a lot of people do.

>>38197095
Yes anon it's very annoying, my facial pores become blocked and my face gives off a greasy complexion too when I wake up from fapping.

Also I just feel overall more greasy and dirty the next day even after a decent shower.

>prostate cansur
based on a Harvard study that found a 30% increased chance of cancer in subjects who ejaculated less (excluding women)
it's a sampling error; people with health issues like obesity, drug use, ect that lead to cancer risks obviously have less sex
>wet dreams, involuntary orgasm, lusting for sister/pet dog
not masturbating and not ejaculating aren't the same thing and it's likely you can have most of nofap's benefits despite these
after 10-20 these urges should subside and your libido in general will start to fade

Breaking your masturbation habit is like lifting your brain out of an opiate addiction. We men are born with a dependency on sexual stimulation that stopped being relevant hundreds of years ago.
Not only will the frustration of unfulfilled sexual appetites will be lifted but you will appear virile and in control to normals.

Godspeed you brave souls

>>38197456
Interesting. In on day 6 but I don't notice much change. Maybe tomorrow things might change.

>>38197456

>better skin

Could this be the answer I've been looking for? I thought i was plagued by genetics.

>ive only done at most a month of no fap and I really felt no significant differences except that it feels better to fapnfrom the regained sensitivity. I wish there were concrete studies on if no fap has benefits because I want to do it again but I feel like it would be a waste of time.

>>38198014
Didnt mean to greentext that
Original comment thing is retarded no other board has this

>>38198014
We'll for one if u can master self control then you can start using that momentum to improve your life

>>38197779
masturbation depletes your body's zinc which is essential to a healthy skin
if you're past puberty and still have acne there's no doubt that it would help
zinc supplements are cheap and help

>>38198014
who would benefit from creating a study that promotes a form of abstention
if anything certain interest groups in media and healthcare would discredit any evidence

>>38195875
even in ur dreams ur a wanker

Nofap is a fucking meme. If you can't go more than a few days without fapping, you're just addicted to masturbating and need help. If you're popping boners like a pubescent teenager and getting ridiculously horny after such a short amount of time, you have serious hormonal problems and should see a doctor. Nofap isn't going to do anything for you.

>>38198595
I can go a few days without just fine,but the benefits of nofap are apparent in some of the people I know that are doing it.

>>38198595
hey you fucking faggot read the thread before sharing your wisdom
