Journey to No Fap Land

[MGTOW KnightParticipant 7477]

So fellas, I have started my first week into no fapping, and Jesus it is so hard. Pun intended. Are there any guys here who have attempted this endeavor? Any tips or advice? I’m one week in, and I already want to bust a load.

It’s going to be more difficult than you think. Your body is currently wired for regular self-administered doses of various fairly powerful drugs which emulate heroin, amongst other things. If you’re in your twenties, you’ve probably addicted yourself to a remarkably powerful set of chemicals that is *cough* always to hand.

Combine this with the fact that you can, online, view more naked women in an evening than any of your relatives saw in the entire lives. Even if they frequented whorehouses for fifty years. It’s a nifty thought, but in the past fifty years, more naked women have been seen by more men than in the entirety of human history preceding that point. So yay for us.

I guess what I’m saying is: don’t beat yourself up, but don’t give up. I’ve dropped from jerking off once or twice a day . . . which I did for probably thirty-five years . . . to four times this year. This is a dramatic improvement, and I credit myself as such.

There’s a “NoFap” app for cel phones with a rocket symbol logo. I like that. Lots of random pithy little encouraging sayings and “go get ’em!”s for when you start to slip.

So why bother:

I can only speak for my own experiences here, although these seem to be mirrored by any number of Men across the web.

I have *tons* and *tons* more energy. It’s frightening how, after a period of some abstinence, I can feel a distinct difference for a few days after I ejaculate. It’s not pleasant.

I am *way* more intelligent, awake, and aware. Again, when I slip and fap, that drops down a few notches for a few days. It took months to really realize this level of awakening, and, since I’m not completely ‘clean’, I don’t really feel I’ve reached my max yet.

I am much much much much less depressed and anxious. Again, this was very much an upward spiral kind of thing, and I notice it the most when I have a slip. After a long, long week, I jerked off last night. Today my depression and anxiety are back like a hammer. It’s comforting, however, knowing that they’ll start to fade again after a few days.

The longer you stick with it, the more it works, and the more amazing the results will be. There’s some NoFap website or something out there that’s mildly useful, although they mainly just want to sell you crap. The reddit nofap board is a lot better.

Give it a try for six months. If you can’t go six months without doing something (I’m still working on that, btw, but way improved) so theoretically mild and harmless, that does imply some level of addiction or habituation, right?

Good luck. Good topic, feel free to post more on it as you experience stuff.

Yeah being in my mid 20’s, the testosterone levels are through the roof. I’ve honestly never been more horny in my life. I just need to tone it down because I was fapping 10-15 times a day… When I was stressed I would fap. At the end of the day, I would fap. I would fap just to fap. XD

Occupy yourself with anything that can kill your time…work, exercise, networking, movies, hobbies. When you have a busy schedule your desire for fapping will drop.

I’m 36.

Have been celebate, no fapping and no sex, since my 24th birthday.

Once you do this for a few years it gets very easy.

I couldn’t even imagine to jerk off now.

It’s not.

Once you get used to it it’s very easy.

It’s really just a habit thing.

I used to jerk off like a maniac.
If I was able to stop then everybody can.

I’ve noticed I get more anxious and depressed if I jerk off more than a couple days a week.

Why do guys do this?

I’ve felt worse from not beating off because of my repressed sex drive.

Relieves the tension for sure.

Also , it helps you realize you don’t need a bitch when it comes to carnal matters as such.

I agree with gllahone84.

I think there needs to be a balance. I find that if I don’t fap, I just get horny and start wanting to go out to clubs to find women.

It’s easier to just pop in a porn if relieve the tension to Christy Canyon.

I do this at the end of the day before I go to sleep as it helps me sleep better.
