You'll be better off without that as well.

It's forcing chemical responses in the brain, that's why you "like" it. Going without it for a while the attachment to it will subside.

I know my brain is kind of messed up because I watched it for so long that it gave me an unrealistic idea of women and sex. I almost wish I never started. Anyway some times before a workout I'll watch some porn to get a rush then hit the weights. It's day 3 let's see how far I can go.

Continue on strong, when it gets tough, remind yourself why you started.

The act of watching has been shown to raise T levels but the fact that our brains run on reward systems makes me wish to stay away from artificial stimulants altogether. To our brains we are basically in a relationship with these videos, let that sink in. :huhldup:

Bruh, I can't help but notice you have at least what looks like to me, the likeness of Buddha in your avatar. Are you into meditation and whatnot? I've been up on DDP yoga and meditation a lot lately and find that its benefits tie in to this No Fap mission in terms of energy, awareness and overall well-being.

I won't sit here and front. I've been more of a reader than "practicer" for some time now. I have a lot of knowledge in regards to the occult/spiritual journey but its hardly from experience which I am trying to change.

Ridding myself of vices such as fapping and marijuana while finding more stable financial grounding will push me to pursue spiritual experiences more so.

My avatar is actually an image I found when searching for "Black Buddah"

How has the meditation helped in your experience?

The bolded is my life right now, breh.

I feel you on knowledge over application too. I'm dipping and dabbling in a lot of information and find myself applying it in spurts and seeing my life transform. Then I'll get lazy and have the information, but not apply it for a while. I'm trying to keep myself on the path, because it clearly works when I put these kinds of things to use.

I do standup and write, so I'm more myself on stage and find more imaginative and creative ideas with my writing when I meditate and overall have a lot less fear and anxiety. That, mixed with martial arts (Brazilian jiu jitsu) makes me feel like a superhuman. I'm scrambling with all these elements right now, but in those scant moments when I put them all together it's like :blessed:

It's difficult staying on the path when your mind isn't in order... It's difficult getting your mind in order when your surroundings aren't in order. The cycle had me turning to fap when bored or smoke when I'm bored or upset that I couldn't resist fapping.

I realized a while ago my self control is through the roof when I don't smoke. Still, I rationalized reasons to smoke. So many years of smoking it's as if I'm intimidated by who I will become once I stop. I've clearly forgotten who I was before the habit. :wow:

Marijuana was always the cushion, I've gone without fapping for decent periods but as soon as I smoke I am compelled to follow old routines. I always have a feeling of regret from fapping but weed takes that all away, for the moment.

I got to be a man who doesn't need a substance to feel happiness... That's who I'm striving to become.

BRUH, you just summed up my cycle in that post. Wouldn't say I'm a huge weed head, but even with no fap I'm more likely to indulge and make excuses for the use of a substance, while knowing it opens the floodgates to old habits and gets me off my self-control game.

Just made the decision earlier today to keep my substance use in check and stop being afraid of how powerful I can be when I don't let myself off the hook.

This conversation is meant to be because it reaffirms what I already know :wow:

Good shyt man. Let's keep getting better.
