Hello fellow fapstronauts, today I celebrate 150 days on monk mode. Life is so much better at this point I hardly think about porn now. Morning wood sometimes it is sometimes it is not, quite strange. Apart for that I feel that semen retention helped me enormously in actually making things happen. I am studying medicine now, first year student, and I have to tell you I was more motivated to study cause my mind didn't wander to naked women and sex scenes. Also had more time during the day, time that I got from not searching hours and hours for the perfect sex video online. Other things that I notice is that I am more confident, eye contact is better, I don't need much sleep( woke up after 5-6 hours of sleep ready to start my day) , I lost more weight (trying to have abs, which in the past was just a dream), trying to eat healthier, more calmness, I noticed attraction from girls, voice is a bit deeper and I don't see women as sex objects they are perfectly functioning beautiful human beings and I want to connect with them at every level. It is much easier now to do small talk and flirt with girls somehow it's just comes naturally. So yeah I will keep going on this journey see where it takes me cause I feel that I am not fully healed yet. Thanks everyone for the support that you guys showed me during my streak. It took me around 6 years of failed attempts to finally reach this point. This time I was on and off on this website but the idea off Nofap was somewhere deep in my mind and I didn't forgot it. So never give up and get back to porn free life as soon as possible.
Great stuff thought NoFap improved sleep but wasn’t sure if it was the fact I quitted booze as well. Keep it up lad
Also another question. Your situation with morning wood is similar to me where it’s sometimes there sometimes not. However do you have morning wood frequently if you wake up in the middle of the night or no?
Congratulations well done I’m on day 43 Hardmode but recently looked at Kim Kardashian and keep imagining she was my wife being boned by others. Maybe it’s just a flatline that’s doing this to me but I seem to be doing ok on nofap I wish I could do Hardmode without peeking!
I did the same mistake by watching some hot girls on YouTube but I realised it was just my addictive mind wanting some pleasure. Luckily I didn't relapse. Now I know that even peeking to hot girls can be dangerous to my recovery so I am trying to cut off anything that could be trigger.
I think with the heavy heavy flatline you cant even walk lol. Leave alone trying to search things. Im too in the anhedonia phase.
I'm not gonna lie that will be a challenge. I think I will develop a method which will help me act professionally but I don't have it yet. I hope my mind will heal more and I can separate the lust from the profession. Thanks for the question it is the first time I am thinking about this.
I think you will defintely get used to it but I have a theory that everyone who is a medical proffessional just hides the inner attraction inside of themselves and has more important issues at the forefront of their mind, but deep down inside they still have some attraction
Congrats on your 150 days! It was a pleasure reading your report. I only have roughly half of your days on monk mode right now but i do feel a lot of the benefits you are mentioning. My mind still want to wander towards sexually arousing content but since i have committed to monk mode it is so much easier to get back on track. Fap without porn turned out to be harder to maintain than monk mode.
