NoFap - Why you should quit porn & masturbation !

[johnmoses46]

@Psyche_92 @Sri Ramana Maharshi Actually quitting something completely is not normal we should get rid of things slowly.
Imagine  we are doing things that feels good and we are stopping it suddenly..

That is the reason we should get rid of things slowly and gradually. whether its watching porn or quit smoking

Today is 120 days since I have completely stopped fapping and masturbating. I can feel a huge difference in my energy levels and so happy to have made it this far. The journey is worth it trust me!!

@John Iverson Well, its your choice. You can decide to go through the struggle of abstaining from masturbation and one day, in the future, you no longer will have urges or...you can stay in the same path and be a slave to them.

Your choice.

You can also attain of unconditional okayness like I have (calmness). But that also takes work. Nothing in this life is given. You got to work for it.

Somehow I understand what you are saying to me.. i know that.. but you know if you beat the ego it will comeback this time it will getting stronger.. and my strong is not enough to take that shit.. i'm nit ready for it.. before it is easy for me to think positive and be open but now I don't know what am i going to do now... it feels like if i have no choice? It feels like each day is nothing.. i have so many plans like journaling but my mind always say, ohhhhh!! So tye next day what will you journaling all about? You don't have an idea so you will do nothing and not achieving something!!!!! Okay so jerk offffff!! Cmoooon!! Fappp!! Masturbate!!

@John Iverson Its a decision. You can be a slave to your mind if you want, though.

I feel the ego is more stronger than before, more wiser.. and more powerful to manipulate me.. everystep makes me stuck.. even you say something my mind has a unpredictable sneaky attack on me...  being proacttive this time my mind has a counter attack  i feel sad... it is like gravity.. i cant take a step... choices? I can't think any choices.. if i think is not my friend.. arggg

@John Iverson You are not being present. If you were present, this wouldnt be happening.

You are just trying to control urges with NO effective way to do it.

Its like going to war with no guns.

[Solace]

@John Iverson The ego is working for you not against you! It’s just that somewhere deep inside you, you still beleive masterbation will fulfill you. Notice how all masterbation is, is a 30 second emotional change that makes you feel more connected. After that 30 seconds it’s back to that discomfort you’re used to. And whatever you do that discomfort will stay, no matter what you eat, or what spiritual technique you throw at it, the dicomfort in you won’t leave until it’s ready.

Never had a wet dream. Guess my urges are not strong.

Day 12, plan on busting one on day 14, but might renew the contract for another week.

[LiakosN]

20 days of no masturbation, 510+ days of no porn. During the last 20 days of no masturbation I ejaculated twice in my dream, while having sex with an imaginary hot chick. heheh (:  Feelsgoodman.jpeg. Let the superpowers begin! Stay strong!!!!!!!!

You can quote me, ya kno?

I dont know. I set a goal. Tomorrow I will realize it. Maybe I will put a limit of 3 nuts and than one more week of no fap.

I dont really see much benefits to nofap but making my dick harder and practicing self-control. No superpowers for me, baby

Not sure if you're just taking baby steps or you just don't want to solve the problem permanently.
