Relapsed yesterday after a 10 day streak. Porn is truly endless, and peeking will always ultimately result in relapse. This is definitely a sign from God that you uploaded a video like this today. Thank you for using your platform lucid.
Something that could really help, is buying a safe to lock up your internet cords and also taking your sim card holder and locking that up as well and switch to flip phone while having your accountability partner know the codes to the safe. In the mean time you could get internet at the library which would be a less preferable area to look at porn.
I'm on my 16th day and I've been controlling the urge really well compared to my past experience where i can't even last for a day without fapping. Never give up king

Lucid dreaming on retention is powerful because with the right mindset you will be controlling your dreams in a way that would benefit you, you will use lucid dreams to your advantage by using it to perhaps find vital information out that you weren’t able to do in the day time, in your dream.

I began crying watching this video. Everything you said.. im seeing myself in it. I've always dreamed of being a Yter but I always procrastinate and let my addictions do their thing. I'm always counting my days and I always fail because I still think im not worthy of being free and being a successful man on Yt. I'm so thankful Lucid for every video you do. Really. Everything you say makes sense and I appreciate you for being you. You are Lucid and you give us "viewers" the feeling that you are 100% yourself and so many man can't tell that about themself because they are stuck in a life they dont wanna life in but the comfort zone kills us all. Thank you for everything if you read this. I love you man ♥

Shit Alex, I really needed this. Currently since begin June busy with an improved and more virtuous lifestyle by not drinking, hitting the gym and not fapping, doing good deeds, etc. I am indeed still finding myself watering these toxic seeds with my thoughts very often lately. Letting the seeds dry out is just such a powerful way to describe it. This way you don't need to fight for it, because you don't give it attention. That's why hitting the gym or taking a cold shower when you are horny is so effective, because doing something physically demanding or uncomfortable dries out the seed and your willpower will still remain 'at full HP'. I love this dude. Thank you so much for sharing your insights and your reflections

Couple of days ago, I was with a girl, and we got into it, eventually, and not even 10 minutes pass, my d got f-in FLAT, and I can't describe the shame and the regret, because I was still watching p every week, and my vision on sx wad distorted. I didn't know what was happening to me, I was torn, sad, depressed, but luckily she understood and was by my side, and I thank God that I met her. This experience effectively made me hate p, not because it is bad for you and you have to get rid of it in order to be your best self, no no, because p destroys you in ways you can't even imagine. Your brain can't differentiate between video and reality, you get used to certain stimuli in order to get it up, your sxual drive is getting eroded so much that anxiety and fear take his place. Life is worth living and cultivating your own power and a healthy vision of life. For me, it's not about getting rid of pmo, it's about taking back my own life, taking back my soul, being open to new experiences, going through hardships with your head held up high, enjoying the little things. The more we desire and crave for something, the more farther we get from that. It's not about the destination, it's about the journey. - I never got this open with my experiences, but I hope for some of you that it helps to open your eyes and deal with your insecurities in a healthy way.
I am on day 27. One of the things that kept me going was that before I quit, I wrote down my goal of why I was quitting. So whenever the devil tells me, why do you avoid that nice thing? I'm going to read those writings quickly. Your videos were one of the encouragements that enabled me to quit, thank you lucid. جزاک اللە

This is the best video ever. This mindset advice is so deep and life changing that you can probably apply it to any goal you may have, not just to quitting addictions.
I remember I watched your video on nofap back in 2018 because fapping destroyed me and I couldn't sleep for three weeks straight and had panic attacks and needed to stay away from school. I was 16 in highschool when this happened back in 2017. I need to do nofap and semen retention. It's not a choice anymore. I got severe insomnia because of it and developed mental illness.
This is honestly extremely interesting and a good example of a concept in psychology regarding the power of values. Values that we hold have the capacity to change the way we perceive our inner world. Lucid realized on his first day of nofap that he wanted to achieve more for himself in life and leave something positive behind for humanity. This resulted in the formation of a possibly new (or perhaps it had been a lower-level value for quite some time to Lucid) and certainly much stronger value in Lucids value system. The power of a person's value system and the way it can create such a long-lasting form of motivation/dedication to a goal is absolutely incredible. Congratulations on the 1000+ days of nofap man!
i first got rid of all explicit material across all my devices, and i'm now ready to start my journey. thank you lucid for being a massive inspiration in my life
i smoked cigs since 14, im now 22. At 21 i just decided im no longer a smoker and refused to pick them up when at shop.. this guy is speaking TRUTH!! Tell yourself you have stopped, not are stopping.
As a teenager, I really appreciate your content. I will be honest, I am just starting to realize how much it deteriorates my mental state. I found myself struggling to not think about it. I find myself not even wanting to do it, but it is really depressing. Seeing this video actually makes me want to stop. Thank you lucid. I’m starting today.
glad I'm not the only one who knows they really don't want to look at it, but for some reason does it anyway. Or at least you were, but I'm assuming you aren't that person anymore

coming back to this video after I just relapsed. Here's the issue, I just didn't have the dedication or the want. I wanted to relapse. And I know that sounds crazy but if you don't want to do something, you don't do it. When that urge came, sure I gave a try to make it go away, I prayed and did all that "good stuff" but deep down in my heart did I really want it? Since I relapsed then no, I didn't. And it's the reason for every relapse. You can watch as many motivational vidoes as you want, give yourself so many talks, pray, meditate etc but at the end of the day this is YOUR fight. YOU make the choice to relapse no matter how hard it is.
I agree, willpower doesnt help. I remember that I did use willpower but it helped me, after 2 weeks i failed. Then I lasted longer by just not paying attention, I told myself that I stopped and just played games, lifted weights, drunk a lot of water. Told myself that I only use it for peeing. I forgot about my day counter too. But I will be honest, drinking and smoking helps. When i was little younger at 14, I used to smoke a cig and take a walk around my town, enjoying the life and being grateful with what ive got, ive been alive for over 14 years, ive had many times i could have died and times i was sick of life, but i pushed trough it. I had many motivations to quit, I was lifting weights so I was on nofap for that, I wanted to be able to talk to strangers and it truly worked. I heard that it helps your facial hair growth, so I got onto nofap for those, every day looking at my facial hair at 14 and thinking "im special, im the only one in the class with a noticable beard, my genes are good and im trying to change my life" Right now, i dont remember how many times ive not done it. I just wake up and change some things up.
I had a good streak going, went from September to June without doing it but fell into the habit, making July the start of a new streak, and to get back what I gained before it's gone for good.
Bro, thank you for this I've been trying to stop for months now and this just got me fired up to never do it again. I was blaming the fact that I had access to porn is the reason I kept relapsing. It was ruining my social, religious and my home life so bad to the point that I just wanted to die, I never realized porn would make me feel this way. Thank you.

My new favorite part of Lucid’s videos is at the very end where he’s like “oh my god, that was fucking amazing” I feel his energy and it can move mountains.
This man is absolutely right, respect to you, Will power will not drive you long,* I am on 1900+ day streak and stopped counting* , starting at the age of 16, *you have to have a deep emotional state to improve, and faith in God and the rest will follow*....you will feel alive and extremely calm from inside...which is greater than any momentarily pleasure.
@naman9441 Good to hear that you are atleast trying. That seperate you from crowd. I would recommend to not focus on conservation but focus on work, exercise, read, developing skills, give a pat on your back to just completing a single day as sober, pray to almighty, go out socialize, and don't count days its a huge number, count your successes.
He hit the nail on the head! That’s exactly what I did. If you count it you’re gonna probably end up failing one day soon. Just don’t pay attention to it & move on and distract yourself. Replace the habit with a better one.
Thank u for your videos bro, no one could be so accurate in his own words and life experiences. I'm quitting all the bad habits in my daily life and for me this is 100% a motivation to keep lucid and grateful for this decision

I must say, I'm really impressed how you have come so far I remember watching your videos years ago (you had 10k subs) when I first started my self improvement journey. now clicking on you video today after years of not watching you, showed me you have become wiser, more mature, and I can see you are putting in more effort and resolve toward your videos and goals.
I do agree with you to a certain extent but for me personally crossing off the days I find actually benefits me, being able to physically see how far ive come motivates me to not relapse/quit
its fine to count days, but remember if u "relapse" or fap once and u reset ur streak not all progress is gone. what i did is put the date i started nofap, then separate date for when i started my streak, so if i relapse ill still keep going. once i get to 90+ days and it gets easier u can try to stop thinking about it
A while ago u made a video on blocking all kinds of p*** sites by changing some settings in ur internet and adding some keywords and all that and etc. Im happy i did that for my family and especially my little brother i dont want him watching these disgusting people.
I’m currently on my second longest streak ever and this really hit me like a ton of bricks, no matter how long I go either a year or even more it doesn’t matter if I still view myself in the same light, incredibly eye opening, thanks Alex

One way I have learned of stopping a porn addiction is as a close freind said "Close those backdoors!" We should stop giving ourselves the room to be tempted, by having all these venues that we go to where we know we will fall down the rabbit hole and screw up. It's hard but in the end it's worth it when you replace wasted time with well spent time.
Thanks lucid ive finnally feel like i understand this. This whole time I've been just doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results which will never happen. It's like if you keep doing the same thing while trying nofap you will never get anywhere. You have to change yourself. You have to act like you already are 1000+ nofap to get too 1000+ days. You have to act like you already stopped. Start doing the things someone who isn't a slave to themselves will do and before you know it you are that person.
Once I realized that the compulsive cycle that I was repeating was not because of lust but instead because of lack of masculine affection from my father, I knew that I was going to be the masculine energy that my kids will need in the future... It's all about overcoming the flesh and the mental realm to open yourself to a higher possibility
Great video, man. I love how you suggested the dissociation from the addict and leaving phones across the room, starting your day by grounding. You mentioned meditating on it. Did you use any guided audio meditations? An idea for a future video could be to make a guided meditation centered around the mindset you're promoting!
Damn that thing your cousin told really hit me! You're the first ever selfimprovement ytb that I ever watched and u probably changed my life! Danke very much
Bro lucid I really needed this. Been subbed for years and every time you post about no fap it’s the best part of my day. Thank you for doing what you do bro ❤️
I just realized that u don't have to say this is the last time, you have to say this is the first time I'm totally committed with my goal, and that's how u can finally control ur mind when those thoughts come, freedom is awesome that's why no fap is a life changer
this is absolutely true. decided some time ago I wasn't going back no matter what. stopped counting days bc they don't matter anymore, this is who i am now. if you want to stop you have to draw a line in the sand. find something new to spend that energy. do all u can to find someone real.
Im also at 60 Days which is a huge achievement for me as a few months ago i could barely make it to 2 weeks. This truly does get better please everyone stick with it🙏🏽
There was this one time that I hadn’t done it over a month and my confidence went off the god damn chart I was feelin so relaxed and free minded I felt like I could achieve anything I set my mind to. And when I went online to play games and entered across toxic people to where they talk crap to me I don’t know what to say to make them feel bad about themselves. Sure I would say harsh things but I’d make them stop. It’s amazing how u can boost up ur confidence and ur self esteem can go higher than it can possibly go.I’m a more positive person and everyone envy’s me Ik that for a fact bc they see how a energetic and positive person I am and they want to try and stop me. It’s fckin awesome!
Lucid, I want to say thank you for changing my life for the better. I stumbled across your channel about a year and a half ago and everything you said about nofap really hit me deep. I have been masturbation and porn free for 514 days as of today, I stopped tracking the days after a month and I completely forgot I was still doing nofap, but I still never had a strong enough urge to actually masturbate. I have seen, first hand, the effects of being on nofap and it's really driving me forward to do what I want to do in life. Again, thank you so much for impacting my life for the better. You deserve the whole world.
I felt so good after watching this video. Now I understand what mistakes I did and will not repeat them I will be a different self from now. I will be free from addict from today, from now. Thanks a lot lucid for helping me. I will be thankfull to you for the rest of my life brother.
I recently f-d up my 50 day streak and starting over again, stopping to watch porn is the easy part, but masturbation is way worse to quit… Wish me luck
Im very sad that these kind of content that lucid is making arent recognized as much as the kind of cringe pranks your videos and your channel in general deserves more attention
It's very true. I am no longer a porn addict and cured because practicing no fap. I don't count my days of nofap anymore. 2 years ago i would count the days and eventually leads to a relapse.
honestly man, i wish i could meet you once in irl, you are the biggest role model for me after my father, i admire you in everything you do and i dont know what i could've been doing because with you and icecold jt i got into nofap and working out, peace.
Brother Lucid.i succeed nofap for approximately 5 month since i got this mindset of not caring about something and consider that it takes years to heal from that hell's root. Since I was addicted to fapping since I had 4 yo (truly yes). I'm now 17 I failed after that 5 months right after losing that mindset. And I am very thankful af that you reminded me ❤️ I wish you see this
Bro you are very different from other UA-camrs....you are the only genuine UA-camr. Thats why you are my favorite. Keep going man! Subscribed since 50k subs.
Very good video. Gave me a new perspective on the whole addiction mindset. It's definitely a routine thing but the part about not counting days made uninstall the counter app.
I am glad I never was exposed to this kinda stuff. Because I started using the internet late. So now I am independent and I don’t need the internet for having fun because I grew up without it going outside. But I am worried for my younger brothers and sisters that use the internet at a young age and my future children will too. Many people are exposed yo the internet as babies with cocomelon and other channels. It’s honestly sad 😞.
I love this. half the comments are meming this, and the other half is meming along. It's easy to see when a video gets recommended to non IamLucid viewers.
Lucid didn't tell himself he was trying to stop, he told himself he stopped.

This experience effectively made me hate p, not because it is bad for you and you have to get rid of it in order to be your best self, no no, because p destroys you in ways you can't even imagine. Your brain can't differentiate between video and reality, you get used to certain stimuli in order to get it up, your sxual drive is getting eroded so much that anxiety and fear take his place. Life is worth living and cultivating your own power and a healthy vision of life. For me, it's not about getting rid of pmo, it's about taking back my own life, taking back my soul, being open to new experiences, going through hardships with your head held up high, enjoying the little things.
The more we desire and crave for something, the more farther we get from that. It's not about the destination, it's about the journey.
- I never got this open with my experiences, but I hope for some of you that it helps to open your eyes and deal with your insecurities in a healthy way.
I love the way he always freaks out at the end after saying peace.
I am on day 27. One of the things that kept me going was that before I quit, I wrote down my goal of why I was quitting. So whenever the devil tells me, why do you avoid that nice thing?
I'm going to read those writings quickly.
Your videos were one of the encouragements that enabled me to quit, thank you lucid. جزاک اللە
Hey how do I help stop myself, I really need help.. fr bro 😭😔
@@S0l0X mindset
Lucid is the most inspirational role model
One crazy thing on semen retention that people don’t tend to know about is the lucid dreaming. Lucid dreaming on retention is powerful because with the right mindset you will be controlling your dreams in a way that would benefit you, you will use lucid dreams to your advantage by using it to perhaps find vital information out that you weren’t able to do in the day time, in your dream. I just made a vid on this its deep check it out stay blessed
This is the best video ever. This mindset advice is so deep and life changing that you can probably apply it to any goal you may have, not just to quitting addictions.
Thank you for helping young men and men who have suffered though this.
This garbage is one of the worst things to ever happen to this world.
I remember I watched your video on nofap back in 2018 because fapping destroyed me and I couldn't sleep for three weeks straight and had panic attacks and needed to stay away from school. I was 16 in highschool when this happened back in 2017. I need to do nofap and semen retention. It's not a choice anymore. I got severe insomnia because of it and developed mental illness.
That's so interesting, just like the belief method/Easypeasy method. It's literally the same thing.
This is honestly extremely interesting and a good example of a concept in psychology regarding the power of values. Values that we hold have the capacity to change the way we perceive our inner world. Lucid realized on his first day of nofap that he wanted to achieve more for himself in life and leave something positive behind for humanity. This resulted in the formation of a possibly new (or perhaps it had been a lower-level value for quite some time to Lucid) and certainly much stronger value in Lucids value system. The power of a person's value system and the way it can create such a long-lasting form of motivation/dedication to a goal is absolutely incredible. Congratulations on the 1000+ days of nofap man!
You’re the guy who introduced me to this..i can now say that i am so grateful i’ve stumbled upon that one video 🌎
People like you and Hamza inspire so many young men and have such an impact
Kudos bgad ❤❤❤
i first got rid of all explicit material across all my devices, and i'm now ready to start my journey. thank you lucid for being a massive inspiration in my life
i smoked cigs since 14, im now 22. At 21 i just decided im no longer a smoker and refused to pick them up when at shop.. this guy is speaking TRUTH!! Tell yourself you have stopped, not are stopping.
💪
As a teenager, I really appreciate your content. I will be honest, I am just starting to realize how much it deteriorates my mental state. I found myself struggling to not think about it. I find myself not even wanting to do it, but it is really depressing. Seeing this video actually makes me want to stop. Thank you lucid. I’m starting today.
Good luck!!😊
glad I'm not the only one who knows they really don't want to look at it, but for some reason does it anyway. Or at least you were, but I'm assuming you aren't that person anymore
Iamlucid inspires me, and millions of others, to become the better version of ourselves. We love you lucid. Keep going.

I recently just got on nofap, I was a slave when I was 10 and now I am 13 and im stopping now It's literally day one for me, wish me luck 🤞
Good luck bro dont dissapoint yourself
stay safe bro
Thanks for making these no fap videos. Because of you I'm 1 year in and going strong
Awesome video my brother. May God bless you.
I can’t describe how much you were affecting me while I was watching your videos, love from kurdistan❤️
coming back to this video after I just relapsed. Here's the issue, I just didn't have the dedication or the want. I wanted to relapse. And I know that sounds crazy but if you don't want to do something, you don't do it. When that urge came, sure I gave a try to make it go away, I prayed and did all that "good stuff" but deep down in my heart did I really want it? Since I relapsed then no, I didn't. And it's the reason for every relapse. You can watch as many motivational vidoes as you want, give yourself so many talks, pray, meditate etc but at the end of the day this is YOUR fight. YOU make the choice to relapse no matter how hard it is.
mindset is everything
I agree, willpower doesnt help.
I remember that I did use willpower but it helped me, after 2 weeks i failed.
Then I lasted longer by just not paying attention, I told myself that I stopped and just played games, lifted weights, drunk a lot of water. Told myself that I only use it for peeing.
I forgot about my day counter too.
But I will be honest, drinking and smoking helps. When i was little younger at 14, I used to smoke a cig and take a walk around my town, enjoying the life and being grateful with what ive got, ive been alive for over 14 years, ive had many times i could have died and times i was sick of life, but i pushed trough it. I had many motivations to quit, I was lifting weights so I was on nofap for that, I wanted to be able to talk to strangers and it truly worked. I heard that it helps your facial hair growth, so I got onto nofap for those, every day looking at my facial hair at 14 and thinking "im special, im the only one in the class with a noticable beard, my genes are good and im trying to change my life"
Right now, i dont remember how many times ive not done it. I just wake up and change some things up.
lucid, i completely understood everything you meant in this video. man you are such a genius and have a such a way with words
I had a good streak going, went from September to June without doing it but fell into the habit, making July the start of a new streak, and to get back what I gained before it's gone for good.
You have to live like you’re already on day 1000. Do not count the days, do not water the seed, find a higher purpose/drive.
Bro, thank you for this I've been trying to stop for months now and this just got me fired up to never do it again. I was blaming the fact that I had access to porn is the reason I kept relapsing. It was ruining my social, religious and my home life so bad to the point that I just wanted to die, I never realized porn would make me feel this way. Thank you.

My new favorite part of Lucid’s videos is at the very end where he’s like “oh my god, that was fucking amazing” I feel his energy and it can move mountains.
This man is absolutely right, respect to you, Will power will not drive you long,* I am on 1900+ day streak and stopped counting* , starting at the age of 16, *you have to have a deep emotional state to improve, and faith in God and the rest will follow*....you will feel alive and extremely calm from inside...which is greater than any momentarily pleasure.
Shubham bhai please help,I keep relapsiing again and again😢
@naman9441 Good to hear that you are atleast trying. That seperate you from crowd.
I would recommend to not focus on conservation but focus on work, exercise, read, developing skills, give a pat on your back to just completing a single day as sober, pray to almighty, go out socialize, and don't count days its a huge number, count your successes.
I never hear this kind of stuff on other channels. You go into these topics really deep. Also the ending was so perfect 😎👌
He hit the nail on the head! That’s exactly what I did. If you count it you’re gonna probably end up failing one day soon. Just don’t pay attention to it & move on and distract yourself. Replace the habit with a better one.
I love how you Hype yourself up after every video, cracks me up
Thank u for your videos bro, no one could be so accurate in his own words and life experiences. I'm quitting all the bad habits in my daily life and for me this is 100% a motivation to keep lucid and grateful for this decision

Love how your videos or video ideas never feel contrived, very organic.
thank you very much lucid, youve probably made the most impact on my life ever, i dont even have words to describe how thankful i am!
same. love you alex
Stop caring about the day count and make the days count
I must say, I'm really impressed how you have come so far I remember watching your videos years ago (you had 10k subs) when I first started my self improvement journey. now clicking on you video today after years of not watching you, showed me you have become wiser, more mature, and I can see you are putting in more effort and resolve toward your videos and goals.
I do agree with you to a certain extent but for me personally crossing off the days I find actually benefits me, being able to physically see how far ive come motivates me to not relapse/quit
its fine to count days, but remember if u "relapse" or fap once and u reset ur streak not all progress is gone. what i did is put the date i started nofap, then separate date for when i started my streak, so if i relapse ill still keep going. once i get to 90+ days and it gets easier u can try to stop thinking about it
as always, lucid is spitting facts
A while ago u made a video on blocking all kinds of p*** sites by changing some settings in ur internet and adding some keywords and all that and etc.
Im happy i did that for my family and especially my little brother i dont want him watching these disgusting people.
You are the best person that I have ever seen in my life.
I’m currently on my second longest streak ever and this really hit me like a ton of bricks, no matter how long I go either a year or even more it doesn’t matter if I still view myself in the same light, incredibly eye opening, thanks Alex

One way I have learned of stopping a porn addiction is as a close freind said "Close those backdoors!" We should stop giving ourselves the room to be tempted, by having all these venues that we go to where we know we will fall down the rabbit hole and screw up. It's hard but in the end it's worth it when you replace wasted time with well spent time.
bro i think you got me over my addiction, thank you so much, i actually feel so much better, i can feel the creativity in me spark up again!
amazing i was just in the call
:)
Thanks lucid ive finnally feel like i understand this. This whole time I've been just doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results which will never happen. It's like if you keep doing the same thing while trying nofap you will never get anywhere. You have to change yourself. You have to act like you already are 1000+ nofap to get too 1000+ days. You have to act like you already stopped. Start doing the things someone who isn't a slave to themselves will do and before you know it you are that person.
Once I realized that the compulsive cycle that I was repeating was not because of lust but instead because of lack of masculine affection from my father, I knew that I was going to be the masculine energy that my kids will need in the future... It's all about overcoming the flesh and the mental realm to open yourself to a higher possibility
Day 223 today, i hope you keep having sun bro
Getting charged up!
@@iamLucid lesssss goooo baby
im on 2 months of nofap, my best record for ages, tysm for your wise teachings lucid
Great video, man. I love how you suggested the dissociation from the addict and leaving phones across the room, starting your day by grounding.
You mentioned meditating on it. Did you use any guided audio meditations? An idea for a future video could be to make a guided meditation centered around the mindset you're promoting!
Thanks for motivation !
Damn that thing your cousin told really hit me! You're the first ever selfimprovement ytb that I ever watched and u probably changed my life! Danke very much
Bro is a bro, magnificent vid as always
It’s gotten to the point where I forget to update the day tally. Around 300 right now I feel re-birthed
Bro lucid I really needed this. Been subbed for years and every time you post about no fap it’s the best part of my day. Thank you for doing what you do bro ❤️
You deserve subscription.
The ons and only youtuber that actually does what he says on stream
Lucid, thank you bro for caring about us this much, I appreciate you lot.
Incredible example from your cousin. Beautiful advice. مَا شَاءَ ٱللَّٰ
I just realized that u don't have to say this is the last time, you have to say this is the first time I'm totally committed with my goal, and that's how u can finally control ur mind when those thoughts come, freedom is awesome that's why no fap is a life changer
this is absolutely true. decided some time ago I wasn't going back no matter what. stopped counting days bc they don't matter anymore, this is who i am now. if you want to stop you have to draw a line in the sand. find something new to spend that energy. do all u can to find someone real.
Im also at 60 Days which is a huge achievement for me as a few months ago i could barely make it to 2 weeks. This truly does get better please everyone stick with it🙏🏽
im pretty sure im at day 67
Why u guys counting lol
@@KingDaavid Im not counting exactly every single day I just like to remember when i reach one more month and its motivating
There was this one time that I hadn’t done it over a month and my confidence went off the god damn chart I was feelin so relaxed and free minded I felt like I could achieve anything I set my mind to. And when I went online to play games and entered across toxic people to where they talk crap to me I don’t know what to say to make them feel bad about themselves. Sure I would say harsh things but I’d make them stop. It’s amazing how u can boost up ur confidence and ur self esteem can go higher than it can possibly go.I’m a more positive person and everyone envy’s me Ik that for a fact bc they see how a energetic and positive person I am and they want to try and stop me. It’s fckin awesome!
Lucid, I want to say thank you for changing my life for the better. I stumbled across your channel about a year and a half ago and everything you said about nofap really hit me deep. I have been masturbation and porn free for 514 days as of today, I stopped tracking the days after a month and I completely forgot I was still doing nofap, but I still never had a strong enough urge to actually masturbate. I have seen, first hand, the effects of being on nofap and it's really driving me forward to do what I want to do in life. Again, thank you so much for impacting my life for the better. You deserve the whole world.
I felt so good after watching this video. Now I understand what mistakes I did and will not repeat them I will be a different self from now. I will be free from addict from today, from now. Thanks a lot lucid for helping me. I will be thankfull to you for the rest of my life brother.
I recently f-d up my 50 day streak and starting over again, stopping to watch porn is the easy part, but masturbation is way worse to quit… Wish me luck
Mine opposite..it's easier for quit masturbation then porn...
I absolutely no interest in masturbation without porn..
Im very sad that these kind of content that lucid is making arent recognized as much as the kind of cringe pranks your videos and your channel in general deserves more attention
Don't count the days.
Make the days count.
Act today as if you were fap free.
Wise words my friend, loved it, thank you:)
It's very true. I am no longer a porn addict and cured because practicing no fap. I don't count my days of nofap anymore. 2 years ago i would count the days and eventually leads to a relapse.
honestly man, i wish i could meet you once in irl, you are the biggest role model for me after my father, i admire you in everything you do and i dont know what i could've been doing because with you and icecold jt i got into nofap and working out, peace.
Brother Lucid.i succeed nofap for approximately 5 month since i got this mindset of not caring about something and consider that it takes years to heal from that hell's root. Since I was addicted to fapping since I had 4 yo (truly yes). I'm now 17 I failed after that 5 months right after losing that mindset. And I am very thankful af that you reminded me ❤️
I wish you see this
I actually love you lucid
Struggling with this badly! Thank u! 💯
Thank you for recording this, stay lucid. ALEEEX
Bro you are very different from other UA-camrs....you are the only genuine UA-camr. Thats why you are my favorite. Keep going man! Subscribed since 50k subs.
I really needed this. I tried to stop in Thursday night but I rebated today. Ty for this fam
I lost my 7 month streak of no cigarettes today, so I needed to hear this. From now on, I’m simply a non-smoker.
Peace and may God be with you.

This is so fax brother ,you a inspiration 💪
NoFap isn't a challenge it's a lifestyle bro well said🤝
Very good video. Gave me a new perspective on the whole addiction mindset. It's definitely a routine thing but the part about not counting days made uninstall the counter app.
yo lucid thanks bro .i know its just a word but really thanks..
I am glad I never was exposed to this kinda stuff. Because I started using the internet late. So now I am independent and I don’t need the internet for having fun because I grew up without it going outside. But I am worried for my younger brothers and sisters that use the internet at a young age and my future children will too. Many people are exposed yo the internet as babies with cocomelon and other channels. It’s honestly sad 😞.
I love this. half the comments are meming this, and the other half is meming along. It's easy to see when a video gets recommended to non IamLucid viewers.
I'm so glad I came across Lucid a year ago
