Is No Fap worth it? How did you succeed at it?

[Roberto Firmino]

Something that might help is replacing one habit with another, try substituting fapping wit working out

That's how I stopped drinking soda and things like that

This is great advice, I started running and working out along with no fap and it helped tremendously.

Beautiful


Team NoFap never loses

ok thanks! But, is fasting unhealthy? If not, how many days of fasting do you recommend?

Nah its ptetty healthy breh (unless you have diabetes or compromised immune system). Some people think (including me) it removes toxins out your body.

I would reccomed you try twice a week. Say, Monday and Thursday. If not then once a week.

Does fasting include not drinking anything as well? If I drank just water but didn't eat anything at all would that be considered fasting?

Also, would it be ok to fast two days in a row?

 

[SheWantTheD]

Yes, it's definitely worth it. If you fap too much you don't have motivation to do anything because of a lack of energy. Plus time wasted watching porn can be used to doing something more productive.

Cut off any triggers out of your life. TV shows, movies, internet, social media etc that shows sexually suggestive material that makes you think about/wanna beat your meat.

Your most likely gonna have relapses, but keep on going.

Well theres different type of fasts. The way I do it is without food and liquid. (Im actually fasting right now). Thats the way Id recommend.

Oh yeah, people fast like that everyday for weeks in a row

So what is the longest you can fast before you start starving yourself?

How do you beat the intense cravings though? I can only make it 3 days before giving in?

Part of the problem with porn and masturbation is that you programmed your body to want certain stimuli. Its going to get worst. Before you know it, that big booty porn will lead to worst stuff because you become desensitized to it. With any addiction or bad habit you need to reduce the amount of exposure to that habit.Going cold turkey might have you looking like pookie for New Jack City. You said you're obese, so start working out. Changing your diet actually might help also. Cut your sugar intake carbs and eat clean. That means no processed foods and lots of green vegetables. The less time you spend inside your crib, the less opportunity you have to engage in non productive activity. If you must masturbate, only do it when you're about to sleep, then start reducing that. Just google porn addiction and masturbation addiction. I'm sure you'll find plenty of constructive information.

Like I said, right down your goals and start working on them. If you must, use your habit as a reward system and then reduce your habit. The more time you spending working towards something equals the less time you spend wasting time.

Not sure really. I would guess months. You can eat and drink during the small window between sundown and dawn the next day.

ok, thanks man

. I feel porn/fapping is the only good thing in my life at the moment and can't let go of it. I fap 5 times a day and stay online most of the day browsing forums.

I already made a thread about my issues but to recap: I'm 30 years old and am unemployed/broke (only have 30 dollars in my savings account). I am obese

If you want to succeed at it, don't look at the opposite sex (keep your gaze low). It's an Islamic teaching.

what about if you think about them during the day?

Regardless of whether or not it works, look at your life right now. Its bad enough that you have to post here of all places looking for help.
Try to do the exact opposite of everything you are doing right now, including "fapping".
You owe it to yourself to make an attempt. You are wasting your life as it stands right now.

You're right man. I feel like my life is nothing at the moment.

1. No more fapping

What else?
