i used to spend a lot of precious time on it, so i just turn the switch off

Yes all addictions are negatives

all the major changes are in your head, same thing with porn

@PhoenixK7PB I will give you that I try to fap no porn as much as possible, it is mental cocaine

try to stay away from porn for 2 weeks... see if you can

I actually rarely watch porn, it's really over stimulating, I use my imagination usually, also it's easier to one and done when there's no external stimulant

agree, usually when i relapse (and i relapse a lot) i do it whitout porn too

@PhoenixK7PB I see, so you start having changes after about a week. I'll try 3 days first, see how it goes.

Thanks for the info mate!

Do that m8, if you want (and i think its more easy that way) you can PM me about your journey, if you cant do 3 days easy, i would say you need some help

I agree change is possible in a week, also if you are heavily addicted expect the first 3 days to be the hardest (pun intended?)

If you are changing your habits make sure you are busy. If you sit with nothing to do for 3 hours you are going to spend the whole 3 hours wanting to fap. If you are going to change habits now is a good time to work on a small side project or at least picking up a new netflix series and cleaning your kitchen.

totally agree, go to the gym, learn a progamming language, learn 1 cook recipe a day, do something else

Spend 3 hours wanting to fap? Shit, more like all day and night

Doesnt means I do though

@Rhunespire do you think there is genuinely any advantages of nofap

That's purely subjective

Medically, regular masturbation is good for the psyche. Excessive masturbation provided no benefit due to diminishing returns from the endorphin rush

^^Knowledge

@Rhunespire I see ,thanks for the reply.

Those that adhere to no fap are imo typically all monk mode

Weirdest thing just happened I was watching a youtube video focused on financial data, and at the end the guy just stated he was not mgtow for no apparent reason, mass awareness is upon us

one problem is fapping and not eating pussy...

@Rhunespire I am always in monk mode, until the puss is thrown then I just blame fate and smash and dash

pump n dump right?

@PhoenixK7PB yes I am not proud of it either, but when it's really easy I feel like I will beat myself up later If I don't act

Like I will just feel like an idiot the next time I fap

Racional.

@PhoenixK7PB to be real though I am well aware that only the worst kind of woman comes on to a man in the ways that I hook up usually, I think as I get older I will be 100% munk

@Reaper that's upto you and anyone when given the opportunity honestly

Where i live its normal to "pump n dump" even on non-mgtow man

@Rhunespire problem is as time goes on when I finish with one of these thots I get that feeling, you know the one where your your busting a nut and the porn flips to a shot of the guys face... utter shame

as older you gets, woman will be losing their "powers", what you think?

@PhoenixK7PB yes both when they get older and as you get older

My sex drive is slightly lower and I think much clearer now that I'm in my 30's

Hey does anyone floating in here happen to have an unusual amount of knowledge about martial arts?

i have some docs about it, and some .onion links @Kragt

@Kragt I have actually studied/trained in a few disciplines, I was never huge on the spiritual side though

Sweet @Reaper That is closer to what I was looking for.
I am planning to try and pick up one for 6 months for a couple of reasons:
Change up my work out routine
Study the benefits of sparring for male bonding
Self-Defense in the extremely unlikely event I need it
and to give me more oppotunities to practice disciplining myself.
My backwater little town actually has a few dojos/training centers.
I am mostly looking for advice between the options I have onto which one would be best for me.
Krav Maga
Muai Thai
BJJ
Hapkido
TaeKwonDo
are my options. I will have 6 months to practice whichever one I sign up for.

@Reaper make sence, at your 20s your prefrontal cortex becomes "better" (if u want, search by myelination and synaptic pruning), so yah, you think a bit clearer
