srsly

even it's a placebo, it works.

it's probably because i'm more interested in women when i've been on nofap for awhile, and women pick up on that

glad you're red, saves me from wasting a neg

Yes it does. Starting again today May 1st no fap let’s go

Edit: I have not asked out a random in a month.

Yesterday this smoking Asian prolly 22 years old was working the register. She had to ring me up for something and wasn’t gonna ask for my id but some other Asian lady at the store said something to her in Japanese/Chinese and the girl blushed and said something back to her in Japanese/Chinese and asked for my id in English while looking up then down and up again. My submissive radar went off and I asked her out on the spot and got her number.

This is what no fap can bring you. Extra courage

we all know nofap is the real deal, it makes u a confident and desirable man. but its a struggle for most of us because it takes great effort to actually succeed, its easy to just watch some porn but it makes us miserable.

nofap is of zero value and is practiced by the same people who end up being seduced into cults thinking that there is something there, when in reality, there is nothing and in the case of nofap, nothing changes and the practitioner of this falsehood ends up going full circle and right back at square one. back to reddit

Why is it of zero value?

What about people who are in relationships and just have sex with each other instead of fapping?

stfu you dirty red insect

I'll have to agree on this. Late February I decided to quit porn and fapping. Since then, I've done it 3 times without porn.

Also since then ive started:

- A completely new 100% whole foods diet. No more fast food for lunches
- Quit coffee cold turkey
- Stopped having a morning cigarette with my coffee ( pack a month)
- Sleeping 8 hours solid and waking up before my alarm
- Drinking more water than my bladder knows what to do with.
- Been on tinder/bumble dates.

And most importantly, been back into a lifting routine since the beginning of March.

Whether or not I can contribute all this extra energy and commitment to NoFap is questionable, but I can for sure say it's the first time in over a decade that I have sustained myself from porn longer than a week and feels good.

No more post fap lethargy.

GODSPEED

exactly

also you just need to ask yourself, why do you fap?

there's no point, it gives you 10 seconds of satisfaction

For some, placebo effect is all it takes to get the ball rolling in the right direction. Kudos if you actually get real benefits from it

All it does for me is make me stupidly horny and considering doing stupid things to get a nut if my gf isn't around.

- no fap. find other ways to trigger your dopamine releases, not jerking into your hand. it provides you with instant, temporary satisfaction for not actually achieving anything.

- no or limited social media usage. i use social media to post guitar videos, but i don't look around anymore. i still follow sloots, but now you can 'mute' them. it's just a bad idea when trying to do nofap. after 7+ days you see a pic of a chick and just wanna fap

- keep busy. it will make the first two much easier. get all the **** you need to get done, then find a hobby to fill your time. everyone should have 3 hobbies - a hobby that brings out your creativity, a hobby that keeps your healthy and a hobby that makes you money

- focus on yourself. if you can be happy with yourself, you're winning in life. girls should just a be supplement to an already fulfilled life. find passion in something, dedicate your time to something, try and be great at something. that's why the gym is so good, you could have had the ****test day ever - but you know that you can still goto the gym and give it your all

What is it about social media that makes life worse? Im only on one social media site but I noticed when I deleted it in the past I was generally happier. I think it’s the constant negativity. The racial, religious, political, and gender divide is so prevalent on there. It’s constant arguing or seeing things piss you off.

because people are only going to post happy snapshots of their life, or you're gonna see a pic of a girl that doesn't fancy you back or whatever - it can just make you feel crappy sometimes and make you feel inadequate.

it stops me living in the moment anyway

solid advice. I havent had social media for about a year. No fap for a week(hard to quit porn srs, its VERY damaging) I go a week or two and then binge on nasty prons like 4 or 5 times in one weekend, its all bad and not fair to my girl.

Anyway, I have had sex with 4 girls since last summer VS 4 or 5 girls since I was 18. ALSO I stay busy af, always in the gym, fishing, skating, doing things around the house, going on dates, going out of town, etc. lifes never been better srs. I wanna see what my sex life will be like with a year off porn...

Why are all these "self help" threads from reds lately?

Try not being a red first...

cool starry bra

dude the nofap think has been an eye opener to me, i never thought it was causing me any harm. then i think, i've jacked off to porn at least 4 times a week since the age of 15 (now 26). so of course it's gonna have some psychological effect, and it's been ingrained for so long i don't know what life feels like without it.

I feel amazing after even 2 weeks off porn, so looking forward to seeing what it's like after months

im doing great dawg thanks for asking
