If you ever relapse or what, don't worry as if Self Discipline is what keeps you going as long as you have the WILLPOWER to do these kind of things, these CHANGES. DON'T COUNT THE DAYS. Just learn when to STOP, simply think of it in yourself. ask yourself, how long have I been doing this kind of addiction? how long am I gonna ruin my mental health with this self pleasure? I am glad that I can take control of myself now, it has been months ever since I stopped doing this and realized how down bad I am to waste my time on seeking pleasure instead of INVESTING it on doing GOOD things in life, especially the things that matters to me the most. Also watching Hamza Ahmed's contents helped me to cope up with this problem that majority of people does. Learn stoicism if possible and repent on your sins. I hope my homies especially the one who's reading this may cope up and live his/her life to its fullest potential because I also went through this kind of state in life and I don't want you guys to embrace instant gratification and pleasure that can ruin your health, "b-b-but the internet says that it doesn't give any negative effects into your body" Bro just shut up.

First leave porn,rewire your brain from that thing on somewhat of an easy mode and then day by day when you just can look at porn objectively see how bad it was you can start the pure semen retention and abstain from it entirely maybe this could help
I remember doing nofap, had to say that it was quite hard for me. What I noticed most, however, is that I laughed way more at jokes. Maybe because the dopamine kicks in harder? Idk, it was fun tho. I need to try again. NEED.
iv been doingit and im doing 10x better with girls. it works because you start communcating with women with confidence and it starts to actually make you more likeabe with women.
In my opinion, "nofap" is simply a form of fasting. So it seems like many young dudes on youtube are just now figuring out the power of practicing self discipline through the denial of sensory pleasures. Traditionally, fasting is associated with food. But the main goal is to subdue your mind and body to a higher mode of consciousness. So don't get obsessed with "nofap". Get obsessed with self-denial, sacrifice, compassion, love, and peace. This is the goal of fasting: to realize that life is more than food, more than simple pleasure. And the act of fasting (i.e every time you WANT something and you DENY yourself that thing) you are PRACTICING self discipline and growing in virtue and character. If you become resentful and angry about your fasting, then you have lost your way and you are better off re-engaging in the behavior you were fasting from. Once you go far enough, you realize that you can take a permanent fast (or vacation) from pride, hate, malice, guilt, envy, anxiety, fear, etc. You can be free. Take up your cross daily.

Don’t even ask yourself if it was worth it because it definitely is worth saving all of your dopamine for the right moments instead of wasting it for pleasure.
There is a difference between no fap and no porn. I would even go and say that masturbation "can" be good without porn. The problem nowadays is the addiction to porn itself and not masturbation, because masturbation has always existed in humanity and never was a real problem.
I’ve been practicing this for years now. It’s good to abstain from pleasures or things that take our energy away and use the energy in other outlets such as physical activity or art. Retention has its benefits for sure. So does enjoying a release. There should be absolutely no guilt if you fail one day and give in. Mean it when you release or when you retain. The true master knows when it’s time and how to control. Good health to you all. 😎🤘🏽
Great video Man, it's sad that these day it's normal to have watched this content from 12 years old and even under. I wonder what the long term effects on society will be . . .
Yarik quick question, Do you also feel like nofap can be a placebo effect? I been on it for like 7 months and I literally don’t feel a difference. Back then I’d only do it like 1 or 2 times a week. So I guess I wasn’t as aggressively addicted compared to others, but I honestly don’t feel anything different
it IS a placebo effect, there's literally no evidence suggesting that nofap is benefitial in any way,quite the opposite it's actually healthy to fap regularly, i agree that porn addiction is really bad, but you can just fap without using that and the problem is basically gone
@@sebastianbal1008 Look up the spiritual benefits of nofap. Doing it while working on a goal is extraordinarily effective. If you are a young man, the surge of creative energy that you get will propel you towards success extremely quickly. If you are busting nuts on a regular basis for no reason whatsoever, then you aren't being ambitious enough. Keep yourself busy, and porn will be a distant memory.
Great man, I'm also on it for about two years now and 100% sure that I won't go back to the old ways. I'm curious why you stopped it now after such a good amount of time? In my case I just deconditioned myself...
I went on for maybe another half a year. After a while i stopped carrying about it altogether. The Main thing for me was the porn addiction. And I don’t think fapping is all that bad if you do it in moderations and it doesn’t stop you from pursuing girls / relationships. (Saying this I barely fap anyways, maybe every 3 months if I have to put a number on it)
I'd definitely agree that watching porn isn't that good for one's mental health, especially the excessive amount, but retaining semen for a prolonged time is not all that healthy. I'd say for those struggling, if you are able to refuse porn but still allow pleasuring yourself from time to time, that would be the most optimal way to keep your sexual health. At one point a prolonged denial of masturbation led to me experiencing more wet dreams and semen spill with the pre-cum, which is inconvenient and somewhat concerning. Trying to beat an addiction is one thing, but I've seen some nofappers imagining they'll get super powers of confidence if they do not fap for a year and become pussy magnets. That's not the point of it, you have to want it for the sake of your own mental health, otherwise you'll just switch addiction to some almost tyrannical control over your body and emotions. You got to learn to accept that those cravings are a part of you and learn how to satisfy or channel them without succumbing to addiction. There's no shame in feeling sexual desire.
I don't think we should fap on our own Wet dreams means fapping but we don't do it our body do it on its own it does when it needs then why should we fap
You speak as if tyrannical control over ones’s body and emotions is a negative thing when that is exactly how a man should be ideally. it’s just that the modern world teaches men nowadays that it’s okay to lack any sort of self control and constantly indulge in non-stop hedonism. It’s a lie. Don’t be deceived.
True in every written word. Fap addicted people, (vicious people in general), usually don't have other sources for getting pleasure, like a hobby or studying in deep something of their interest, finding methods, developing new techniques and becoming the best on whatever they do, so fapping takes the protagonism of life instead of so many other wonderful things.
Little background for me along with some advice: I’ve been trying to do NoFap for over 6 years. Until recently, I’ve had a lot of failure and little success. 3 years ago, I ended up getting a 75 day streak. Things were going great, I got my first real girlfriend. I dedicated myself to not have sex before marriage. But then I ended up having sex with her for about a month, before she separated herself from me. Not long later, another relationship I got in ended in a way that made me spiral into depression for years. NoFap became basically impossible. The best I could do was not look at porn, and even that was mostly tenuous. Now I’m on day 45 again and going strong. People talk about how you need to do a bunch of various activities while on NoFap to distract yourself, but they don’t tell you why and why that is so essential. Sexual energy is a powerful force, it’s a fire-breathing dragon within you. Either you control it, or it eats you. Sexual energy NEEDS to have an outlet. This is nonnegotiable. That energy NEEDS to be redirected towards your physical, material, mental, creative, and spiritual pursuits. That’s the only way to control yourself: by sublimating the energy. If you’re single at this stage of your life, don’t just get into a relationship and start having sex, your woman will just become a new way to masturbate. Use that energy to achieve your AMBITIONS. Don’t willy-nilly give your seed to an undeserving woman. Marry her first. If she’s a woman of REAL QUALITY, she will love and respect you for your sexual discipline. Once you are married, you still need that energy for your pursuits as well as for your wife. In marriage, try to dedicate only every other day to sex, and spend about a week each month abstaining from sex. If you two are not ready for a child, abstain during her most fertile period. If you are aiming for a child, abstain from sex the week leading up to her most fertile period. Abstain in marriage like this, and your sex will become significantly more passionate, more enjoyable, less monotonous, and ensure a more long-lasting marriage. Plus, if you follow this while trying to get her pregnant, the chance of making a child is significantly higher. In marriage, this is probably the best way to distribute your creative energy. I’m not married, but I know a lot of the research on this topic, and this is how I would act if I was.
the thing about sr you gotta maintain your vibration by eating good and no bad habits or or someone will go on a long streak and not get the full benefits. sometimes you can go on 7 days and it could feel like 30
1. avoid porn at all costs, but don't think about sensual pleasures either at the same time (enjoying the mind training). 2. avoid any media that promotes sexual contents, which means that you should not follow those influencers or celebrities who post sexy contents ~ this way you don't add fuel to the fire. 2. if still horny, try to take a cold bath (again and again). 3. some of Asian traditions try to avoid pungent food to decrease the sexual stimuli. 4. as cliché as it may sound, using your time for various beneficial activities to tire yourself out is in fact one of the important aspects of your success in this no-fap journey. 5. finally try to incorporate daily meditation session into your routines so the build-up energy in your body is distributed into all parts of your organs therefore preventing you from sexual frustration. does your skin get better after some months? i personally don't meticulously observe the effect, but yes at my age (40s), i look younger than my friends around my age. after successfully passing the 90 days of no-fap, basically you would have built up a certain discipline and kungfu to know about how your body reacts towards various stimuli. good luck!
Thank you for the Video! I just started my journey about a week ago, when my 5 year bestfriend/crush left me for somebody else. Im still friends with her but i feel pathetic and just want a new partner, so i figured to quit porn for good. I also told my friends about it and i hope that cold turkey would do the rest for me by blocking the response. Thank you for the tips, really appreciate the video. Stay strong - Tim
Hey bro, thank you for this video, like really it was inspiring. As a starting self-help content creator, you are still not so experienced so I thought you might like to hear some advice. I think the video is a bit long which does not go hand in hand with the average attention span of UA-cam users so you might consider trimming it a bit I think you should experiment with other background music since the one you are using now is calmer than it should be. Anyways I really wish you all the success in your content-creating journey and thank you!
Well haven't watched the whole thing yet but I'm gonna assume it's worth it since you went 700 days. Gonna finish this video tho. Sounds like a banger. Pun intended
Good advice for any addiction really, never had too much of an issue with porn or masturbation but this advice is something im going to put toward other addictions i have
Go for a walk, go to the gym, learn how to cook just do something your day is supposed to be pretty much 100% productive and when you are doing something constantly you are not going to do the deed
Been such a battle, I had impressive streaks before, over 100 days, now my brain finds creative ways to relapse, and also girls keep sending me nudes although I didn't ask for it 🤦♂️
On day 10. This time it feels different, I feel I will actually do it. Also something that I felt for the first time doing nofap (tried and failed previously on similar day) is feeling extremely *orny. Sometimes I can feel abit woozy (similar to drunk feeling) just from it. I don’t have any medical problems but it’s just a weird feeling, I feel like I could *uck anything and I’d enjoy it. Anyway I will report back in a few weeks my progress. Stay strong.
Over week 4. I don’t feel very different tbh, I get some urges here and there but since I removed every way of accessing videos it’s easy to manage. Not saying they go away fast, just controllable. Day 11and 12ish were the worst by far, I really wanted to quit. I wanted to fail at work but I didn’t indulge. At day 14 I did feel a confidence boost but that quickly died. Idk if there has been another effect on my life that I can’t see but it’s just normal af. I’m gonna keep going. The next time I hopefully indulge in something will be with another woman, that’s my plan. Anyway keep going strong guys 💪
Retention is one of the best things you could do for yourself. But even If you set yourself to do it it could still be quite a challenge. My advice to you is to sit down with yourself for some hour or so everyday for a week or more, and see for yourself how damaging and destructive porn and masturbation is, you’d be a failure if you go down that route, living your life on a sideline, you don’t care about yourself, your family doesn’t, society doesn’t, no one cares. Can you feel how pathetic that is ? Now I want you to try and feel the same but in 20 years time when you’re 40 or 50. a whole life wasted quite pathetically. All the energy you had, all the drive, all the intelligence, all resources and most importantly all the time you had to make yourself a respectable, successful and happy human being. I would highly recommend to you my friend that you start seeing reality for what it is, start adjusting your worldview to that reality, do the things you should do no matter what circumstances you find yourself in, and realise that it’s your perception of life that is most important, if you see life as an opportunity, then you’re only gonna find peace and fulfilment. Do retention my friend, you deserve to be on top, not just a miserable sad sideliner that no-one would ever care to give a tiny piece of importance to
See now what I’ve seen is that people have said nofap means no sex but then I’ve seen people saying that sex doesn’t count?? Because if you are in a relationship.. yeah
sex is allowed my brudda. sex is allowed because its different your brain gives you different kinds of dopamine when you have sex because theyre other things involved. especially if you love that person. and you dont feel that regret that you have when you fap
Ive tried quitting and going to once a week but its hard i am just having trouble getting through the first steps and i want to pretty much quit all together
A really good way to softly reduce watching porn that worked for me, is first : stopping videos for photos only. I'm on my way to stop watching any porn content and it's been like months I didn't seen any videos. I was for a couple months in photos, and now it will soon be a month without anything and I don't feel the urge to fap to something. You got it boys, it takes time, but it is impossible to instantly quit everything.
does anyone consider porn as cheating? i'm not a man so it's difficult for me to understand. either way it feels like betrayal and that you don't love us when odd socks/tissues are left about, gaslighting, taunting, the entitlement over something that isn't even real. it feels like you've been cheated on so i hope that in some helps to motivate anyone who is struggling to start no fap and is living with their partner.
regular ejaculation can have potential benefits for sexual and reproductive health. It can help maintain healthy sperm production, relieve sexual tension, and contribute to overall sexual well-being. Additionally, some studies suggest that frequent ejaculation may have a protective effect against certain prostate problems, such as the development of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
That's exactly the problem here. Holding it back in is actually unhealthy. My dad died of prostate cancer... I know that porn is bad for you etc. but if you don't have a girlfriend, that wants to get funny 3 times a week (studies show that as a good amount helping your prostate)... what else can you do?
@@W4ldgeist some people have problems and i get it. but putting this stuff out there as if it makes you “stronger” is in fact doing the opposite negative affect on people. Wether you masturbate or have sex its the same thing. You ejaculate period. So what, if you have a girlfriend you’re just gonna tell her NO, I don’t want sex cause all my friends and the people I follow are saying its good for you?
Indeed. I suspect fapping boosts sperm production and quality. Tricks the body into thinking you’re a stud horny mofo getting plenty, and adjusts things accordingly. I think this jizz-retention, no fap movement is a complete load of bolleux that emasculates young men and makes them feel weak and guilty for a normal human function. All part of “the plan” to eradicate toxic masculinity 😬 I do think short term abstention may have benefits - make you more aggressive, focussed and horny. Or maybe the opposite is true. Or maybe it’s a balance. Fapping five times a day in close succession I guess is tiring and time consuming 😂
Haven’t watched porn in about two months, also haven’t ejaculated. Been waking up lifting weights , making moves within my career choice , working my day job , and training Muay Thai at night. I’ve also been praying within these two months. I feel like a fucking beast and I’m not gonna stop. Your mind really changes when you stop falling into things of pleasure.

I had a good streak for four days and failed. But I won't give up. I will like and subscribe. Love the video ❤:)
day 40 completed ♥ exploring my spiritual side now
This vid is about to blow up I promise you 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Haha thank you!
your vid will be appreciated soon.
Believe me there's a lot out there struggling with this addiction.
Cis Chinese man here, do ghostloads count as fap?
Great advice man your videos deserve more views keep up the great work🔥🔥
Thank you!! 😊😊
this is it, this is exactly what I needed to hear, thank you.
You got a great, zenlike voice. Also you're making some excellent points. I feel recharged, keep up the good work.
There is a difference between no fap and no porn. I would even go and say that masturbation "can" be good without porn. The problem nowadays is the addiction to porn itself and not masturbation, because masturbation has always existed in humanity and never was a real problem.
@@DJInstramentalJay I agree, anything that releases dopamine can be addictive to be fair
Day 10…stay strong brothers FOCUS ❤️

700 days is rookie numbers, you got to pump those numbers up
I take so many herbs and nutrients that I would probably jump off a bridge if I tried to go any longer than 3 days
Lmfaoo i made it 700 days as well ; definitely changes your performance in life for the better .!!! 💖🔥🔥💪🏿💪🏿
Great to hear your story mate
Thank you!
I failed boys.. I told myself I was going to stop, went exactly a week and ended up failing..
I’ve been practicing this for years now. It’s good to abstain from pleasures or things that take our energy away and use the energy in other outlets such as physical activity or art. Retention has its benefits for sure. So does enjoying a release.
There should be absolutely no guilt if you fail one day and give in. Mean it when you release or when you retain. The true master knows when it’s time and how to control.
Good health to you all.
😎🤘🏽
Look how 700 days of nofap benefited this guy , his youtube channel is just about to blow up .
What a legend, great vid, very inspiring.
Believe in Jesus Christ and you’ll receive eternal life then read his word
bro is a walking god
Great video Man, it's sad that these day it's normal to have watched this content from 12 years old and even under.
I wonder what the long term effects on society will be . . .
i couldn't stop reparing the music in background, i felt so calm with your voice as well.
Do you have the playlist?
Yarik quick question, Do you also feel like nofap can be a placebo effect? I been on it for like 7 months and I literally don’t feel a difference. Back then I’d only do it like 1 or 2 times a week. So I guess I wasn’t as aggressively addicted compared to others, but I honestly don’t feel anything different
I think it’s for people who have horrible addictions. I don’t do it much either so I don’t feel much different either.
it IS a placebo effect, there's literally no evidence suggesting that nofap is benefitial in any way,quite the opposite it's actually healthy to fap regularly, i agree that porn addiction is really bad, but you can just fap without using that and the problem is basically gone
@@sebastianbal1008 Look up the spiritual benefits of nofap. Doing it while working on a goal is extraordinarily effective. If you are a young man, the surge of creative energy that you get will propel you towards success extremely quickly. If you are busting nuts on a regular basis for no reason whatsoever, then you aren't being ambitious enough. Keep yourself busy, and porn will be a distant memory.
@@sebastianbal1008 Found the neckbeard
You got used to the benefits
Great video!
Thank you man!
Great man, I'm also on it for about two years now and 100% sure that I won't go back to the old ways. I'm curious why you stopped it now after such a good amount of time? In my case I just deconditioned myself...
I went on for maybe another half a year. After a while i stopped carrying about it altogether. The Main thing for me was the porn addiction. And I don’t think fapping is all that bad if you do it in moderations and it doesn’t stop you from pursuing girls / relationships. (Saying this I barely fap anyways, maybe every 3 months if I have to put a number on it)
@@yarik1234 Ok sounds alright...it doesn't have much of an effect in this volume for sure
I'd definitely agree that watching porn isn't that good for one's mental health, especially the excessive amount, but retaining semen for a prolonged time is not all that healthy. I'd say for those struggling, if you are able to refuse porn but still allow pleasuring yourself from time to time, that would be the most optimal way to keep your sexual health. At one point a prolonged denial of masturbation led to me experiencing more wet dreams and semen spill with the pre-cum, which is inconvenient and somewhat concerning.
Trying to beat an addiction is one thing, but I've seen some nofappers imagining they'll get super powers of confidence if they do not fap for a year and become pussy magnets. That's not the point of it, you have to want it for the sake of your own mental health, otherwise you'll just switch addiction to some almost tyrannical control over your body and emotions. You got to learn to accept that those cravings are a part of you and learn how to satisfy or channel them without succumbing to addiction. There's no shame in feeling sexual desire.
Why do you think you need to masterbate?
I don't think we should fap on our own
Wet dreams means fapping but we don't do it our body do it on its own it does when it needs then why should we fap
You & the other ppl are using it for the wrong things it’s for achieving your purpose or aka your Dreams/Goals
You speak as if tyrannical control over ones’s body and emotions is a negative thing when that is exactly how a man should be ideally. it’s just that the modern world teaches men nowadays that it’s okay to lack any sort of self control and constantly indulge in non-stop hedonism. It’s a lie. Don’t be deceived.
True in every written word. Fap addicted people, (vicious people in general), usually don't have other sources for getting pleasure, like a hobby or studying in deep something of their interest, finding methods, developing new techniques and becoming the best on whatever they do, so fapping takes the protagonism of life instead of so many other wonderful things.
Little background for me along with some advice: I’ve been trying to do NoFap for over 6 years. Until recently, I’ve had a lot of failure and little success. 3 years ago, I ended up getting a 75 day streak. Things were going great, I got my first real girlfriend. I dedicated myself to not have sex before marriage. But then I ended up having sex with her for about a month, before she separated herself from me. Not long later, another relationship I got in ended in a way that made me spiral into depression for years. NoFap became basically impossible. The best I could do was not look at porn, and even that was mostly tenuous.
Now I’m on day 45 again and going strong. People talk about how you need to do a bunch of various activities while on NoFap to distract yourself, but they don’t tell you why and why that is so essential. Sexual energy is a powerful force, it’s a fire-breathing dragon within you. Either you control it, or it eats you. Sexual energy NEEDS to have an outlet. This is nonnegotiable. That energy NEEDS to be redirected towards your physical, material, mental, creative, and spiritual pursuits. That’s the only way to control yourself: by sublimating the energy. If you’re single at this stage of your life, don’t just get into a relationship and start having sex, your woman will just become a new way to masturbate. Use that energy to achieve your AMBITIONS. Don’t willy-nilly give your seed to an undeserving woman. Marry her first. If she’s a woman of REAL QUALITY, she will love and respect you for your sexual discipline. Once you are married, you still need that energy for your pursuits as well as for your wife. In marriage, try to dedicate only every other day to sex, and spend about a week each month abstaining from sex. If you two are not ready for a child, abstain during her most fertile period. If you are aiming for a child, abstain from sex the week leading up to her most fertile period. Abstain in marriage like this, and your sex will become significantly more passionate, more enjoyable, less monotonous, and ensure a more long-lasting marriage. Plus, if you follow this while trying to get her pregnant, the chance of making a child is significantly higher. In marriage, this is probably the best way to distribute your creative energy. I’m not married, but I know a lot of the research on this topic, and this is how I would act if I was.
Never wait until marriage for a woman, especially if she is used already. If you don't tap that ass, somebody else is doing it.
Great comment man, good luck i wish you the best !
pretty nicely said
not married giving advice on marriage
Try fasting. It totally kills sexual urges.
Honestly, if I’m looking like this after 700 days. I rather still doing it. Geez
You can never compare yourself with others
700 days and this dude still doubt whether it is placebo when it comes to confidence 😂 700 days my ass 🧢
He's lying for sure, that he's never released a single video about Nofap and suddenly 700 days, yes yes for sure, it's probably 7 days :)
Facts
He prolly didnt do hardmode
Yeah there’s no fap and there’s semen retention. Two different things, no fap I believe allows to go inside a girl. So not as hard to go 700 days
the thing about sr you gotta maintain your vibration by eating good and no bad habits or or someone will go on a long streak and not get the full benefits. sometimes you can go on 7 days and it could feel like 30
Perspective was overall very helpful. Thank for the transparency 👍🏾😊
I am on my day 20
Is it true that your skin gets better after some months?
Can you give me one tip to the way for 90 days?
just dont bust and youll be good
1. avoid porn at all costs, but don't think about sensual pleasures either at the same time (enjoying the mind training).
2. avoid any media that promotes sexual contents, which means that you should not follow those influencers or celebrities who post sexy contents ~ this way you don't add fuel to the fire.
2. if still horny, try to take a cold bath (again and again).
3. some of Asian traditions try to avoid pungent food to decrease the sexual stimuli.
4. as cliché as it may sound, using your time for various beneficial activities to tire yourself out is in fact one of the important aspects of your success in this no-fap journey.
5. finally try to incorporate daily meditation session into your routines so the build-up energy in your body is distributed into all parts of your organs therefore preventing you from sexual frustration.
does your skin get better after some months? i personally don't meticulously observe the effect, but yes at my age (40s), i look younger than my friends around my age.
after successfully passing the 90 days of no-fap, basically you would have built up a certain discipline and kungfu to know about how your body reacts towards various stimuli.
good luck!
your skin gets better because of testosterone increase. More test = higher collagen
It is true. Just be sure to eat healthy aswell. My muscles look full and random woman like to touch me from time to time.
keep the good up king
the good up
Thank you for the Video! I just started my journey about a week ago, when my 5 year bestfriend/crush left me for somebody else. Im still friends with her but i feel pathetic and just want a new partner, so i figured to quit porn for good. I also told my friends about it and i hope that cold turkey would do the rest for me by blocking the response. Thank you for the tips, really appreciate the video. Stay strong - Tim
Hey bro, thank you for this video, like really it was inspiring. As a starting self-help content creator, you are still not so experienced so I thought you might like to hear some advice.
I think the video is a bit long which does not go hand in hand with the average attention span of UA-cam users so you might consider trimming it a bit I think you should experiment with other background music since the one you are using now is calmer than it should be.
Anyways I really wish you all the success in your content-creating journey and thank you!
Thank you for your advice!
Well haven't watched the whole thing yet but I'm gonna assume it's worth it since you went 700 days. Gonna finish this video tho. Sounds like a banger. Pun intended
Im 14 weeks on no fap, not really any benifits tbh
Taking your freedom back. your free will.
Your words inspire me. Thank you.
Good advice for any addiction really, never had too much of an issue with porn or masturbation but this advice is something im going to put toward other addictions i have
Been struggling with quitting and these videos are constantly appearing giving me the burst of confidence to quite just to go back to it the next day
Go for a walk, go to the gym, learn how to cook just do something your day is supposed to be pretty much 100% productive and when you are doing something constantly you are not going to do the deed
I started nofap many times but I relapsed again and again I won't stop until this shit is over from my routine
Thank you for creating this
Been such a battle, I had impressive streaks before, over 100 days, now my brain finds creative ways to relapse, and also girls keep sending me nudes although I didn't ask for it 🤦♂️
Me too bro
Thank you I will update this with my success
Your gonna be big someday bro.
turning off display pictures on discord has change my life to avoid unwanted porn
On day 10. This time it feels different, I feel I will actually do it. Also something that I felt for the first time doing nofap (tried and failed previously on similar day) is feeling extremely *orny. Sometimes I can feel abit woozy (similar to drunk feeling) just from it. I don’t have any medical problems but it’s just a weird feeling, I feel like I could *uck anything and I’d enjoy it. Anyway I will report back in a few weeks my progress. Stay strong.
Over week 4. I don’t feel very different tbh, I get some urges here and there but since I removed every way of accessing videos it’s easy to manage. Not saying they go away fast, just controllable. Day 11and 12ish were the worst by far, I really wanted to quit. I wanted to fail at work but I didn’t indulge. At day 14 I did feel a confidence boost but that quickly died. Idk if there has been another effect on my life that I can’t see but it’s just normal af. I’m gonna keep going. The next time I hopefully indulge in something will be with another woman, that’s my plan. Anyway keep going strong guys 💪
Still going?
Get ready for fame sir youtube is about to push thah hell outta this
imagine treating ejaculation as the devil. what is this commmunity.
actually the focus is more on pornography.
Are we talking about no-fap while having sex now and then, or we are talking about no fap and no sex at all?
Bro how to stop flatline
When i am on day 26
I have anxiety
Deppression
Lack of motivation
Sadness
How i overcome
Retention is one of the best things you could do for yourself. But even If you set yourself to do it it could still be quite a challenge. My advice to you is to sit down with yourself for some hour or so everyday for a week or more, and see for yourself how damaging and destructive porn and masturbation is, you’d be a failure if you go down that route, living your life on a sideline, you don’t care about yourself, your family doesn’t, society doesn’t, no one cares. Can you feel how pathetic that is ? Now I want you to try and feel the same but in 20 years time when you’re 40 or 50. a whole life wasted quite pathetically. All the energy you had, all the drive, all the intelligence, all resources and most importantly all the time you had to make yourself a respectable, successful and happy human being. I would highly recommend to you my friend that you start seeing reality for what it is, start adjusting your worldview to that reality, do the things you should do no matter what circumstances you find yourself in, and realise that it’s your perception of life that is most important, if you see life as an opportunity, then you’re only gonna find peace and fulfilment. Do retention my friend, you deserve to be on top, not just a miserable sad sideliner that no-one would ever care to give a tiny piece of importance to
I am at around 90 days nofap and almost gave up while watching this video 😅😁💀
i just need to reset my brain and perspective, cause i just now am realizing how socially awkward i actually am
Maybe it's just my phone but isn't the audio desynchronized?
It is
Yeah it is slightly. I edit in 2x speed so didn’t notice, will fix it before the next video. Thank you!
@@yarik1234 No problem. Huge shoutout to you! You did incredible job. Continue your journey
@@ziukal6758 thank you!!
Good job, brother.
See now what I’ve seen is that people have said nofap means no sex but then I’ve seen people saying that sex doesn’t count?? Because if you are in a relationship.. yeah
sex is allowed my brudda. sex is allowed because its different your brain gives you different kinds of dopamine when you have sex because theyre other things involved. especially if you love that person. and you dont feel that regret that you have when you fap
I also did a 700 day nofap streak but ended it due to deppresion :( but im going to start again and start fresh!
I am on day 7 and I just started my UA-cam channel
No one wants to admit they ate 9 cans of ravioli
legend bro! Amazing video definitely doing the phone pin haha
Great explanation.
Addiction is one thing to address, but do you have no concern about prostate cancer developing from rotting buildup?
Just because someone don't fap doesn't mean they will get prostate cancer.
Ive tried quitting and going to once a week but its hard i am just having trouble getting through the first steps and i want to pretty much quit all together
A really good way to softly reduce watching porn that worked for me, is first : stopping videos for photos only.
I'm on my way to stop watching any porn content and it's been like months I didn't seen any videos.
I was for a couple months in photos, and now it will soon be a month without anything and I don't feel the urge to fap to something.
You got it boys, it takes time, but it is impossible to instantly quit everything.
The answer should clearly be yes
Yep this gonna bang
Haha thank you!
does anyone consider porn as cheating? i'm not a man so it's difficult for me to understand. either way it feels like betrayal and that you don't love us when odd socks/tissues are left about, gaslighting, taunting, the entitlement over something that isn't even real. it feels like you've been cheated on so i hope that in some helps to motivate anyone who is struggling to start no fap and is living with their partner.
regular ejaculation can have potential benefits for sexual and reproductive health. It can help maintain healthy sperm production, relieve sexual tension, and contribute to overall sexual well-being. Additionally, some studies suggest that frequent ejaculation may have a protective effect against certain prostate problems, such as the development of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
That's exactly the problem here. Holding it back in is actually unhealthy. My dad died of prostate cancer... I know that porn is bad for you etc. but if you don't have a girlfriend, that wants to get funny 3 times a week (studies show that as a good amount helping your prostate)... what else can you do?
@@W4ldgeist some people have problems and i get it. but putting this stuff out there as if it makes you “stronger” is in fact doing the opposite negative affect on people. Wether you masturbate or have sex its the same thing. You ejaculate period. So what, if you have a girlfriend you’re just gonna tell her NO, I don’t want sex cause all my friends and the people I follow are saying its good for you?
Indeed. I suspect fapping boosts sperm production and quality. Tricks the body into thinking you’re a stud horny mofo getting plenty, and adjusts things accordingly. I think this jizz-retention, no fap movement is a complete load of bolleux that emasculates young men and makes them feel weak and guilty for a normal human function. All part of “the plan” to eradicate toxic masculinity 😬
I do think short term abstention may have benefits - make you more aggressive, focussed and horny. Or maybe the opposite is true. Or maybe it’s a balance. Fapping five times a day in close succession I guess is tiring and time consuming 😂
Keep believing that lie.
@@mattysqueezesofficial what lie?
i found it at 9.. 21 now and it has messed me up lol
It can definitely have a massive impact! Good thing is you are starting to learn about this at 21! Onwards and upwards from here
