        I think we have wet dreams in a similar fashion. I get a prety horned up 4am blow the fricking front out of my pants about a month in.

        The real problem is porn I believe. This includes social media.

          The point of nofap is that on its own it won't fix your life, it's better than its alternative, which is masturbation. It's like, if you stop doing drugs you won't suddenly become successful in life. But it's still better than doing them

        nofap is just a magic cure-all purported by incels because it sounds easier on paper than figuring out what their real problems are
        the irony is that despite all their dogmatic shilling, very few of them will ever manage to do it long enough to find out it doesn't actually do anything

    You've spent God knows how long smashing the dopamine button on your brain over and over and over again as soon as the high tapers off. It's the same thing with fatties and eating, and how they b***h and moan and feel awful while trying to diet: you've conditioned yourself to indulging as soon as your brain starts giving you hunger cues, and now your brain is throwing a fit. Nofap is like dieting for your dick.

        Yes. It becomes cleaner and strong. You're still gonna have shitty days but it's more of a challenging thing to do over a "PROBLEM".

        Youll workout more or read books. Games become really gay. Women become less alluring and you stop caring about random thots. You start to see the quality of some these "hot girls".

        Hot prostitutes are jumping the caste system primarily through the power s8mhjgof social media.

        One of the hottest prostitutes I know runs fricking games off of dudes but she is legit such a fricking evil b***h its not funny.

        Think about it this way. Mens toxic trait would be anger and killing everything thats in the way. Diplomacy is hard and all that.

        Women's violence is seduction. They cause men's minds to wander. The average woman has so much access to psychological understanding and exist in such a pro bawd society that that are absolute monsters.

        Yoga pants, booty shorts, belly exposure etc. All very immodest but you seen fricking mothers of six wearing this shit.

    Seeing guys on insanely long streaks (like at a year plus) either not changing much or looking depressed made me give up on it. I figured if not much will change I don't want to stress myself out pretending I don't have a sex drive. I know on nofap you can still technically have sex, even though it's usually mixed up with semen retention, but you can't really rely on women for sex either unless you're basically really lucky looks wise or in the type of woman you find. I've seen how women withhold sex or make themselves ugly so you won't even want to frick them anymore and it's just not worth dealing with either for what should be a ridiculously simple act. That's without mentioning the diseases. I won't say porn is healthy but the way things are set up now it's like a no win situation.

        That was predictable but it doesn't change how things are.

        Nofap isn't a miracle cure. If you aren't simultaneously taking care of your body and mind and fixing problems in your life, you won't see benefits. If your diet is shit, you don't meditate, you drink alcohol, or you engage in other soul-draining activities, you won't be able to build up the life force energy from semen retention. Your seed has the power to create new life. Of course wasting it is doing yourself a disservice and draining you; how could it not be? Giving up porn and masturbation is certainly a step in the right direction, but it isn't the entire path.

        But that's the problem your life gets better from actually improving yourself through other actions and decisions or having access to things that otherwise improve your health, not holding in semen. We're designed to release semen regularly, with a woman not to porn but again women aren't reliable for that anymore. That's why guys can accomplish so much even without holding it in and guys holding it in will look miserable or unchanged.

          >women aren't reliable
          Guys want to improve themselves to get a reliable source for pumping their semen. Jerking off into oblivion stops you from doing that and is no different than guys holding it in for over a year with no real sex

            Anonymous

            Working hard and improving yourself doesn't get you access to reliable pussy because the women aren't held to basic standards or told to meaningfully improve themselves anymore so they don't reciprocate like they should. You can jerk off and still get shit done for example exercising or not drinking. It's not complicated shit but counting on women for fairness or reliability has been shown so many times not to work.

          There is a clear difference between when I take care of everything else in my life AND do semen retention, vs. when I just take care of everything else. In the former case, I feel much more energetic, focused, poised, and confident. And there are literally hundreds of similar stories on 4chins if you just look. You're wasting your life force every time you ejaculate without the intention of conceiving a child.

      unironically this, the very first thing that happens when you stop numbing yourself with porn, medication, booze, etc is the realization that you gotta do something with your life, if you already have a goal you're gonna get some crazy focused motivation to see it trough, but if you do nothing all day you're just gonna be depressed, like a caged monkey in a zoo.

    Nofap exists to help push you towards getting a GF. Also to stop watching porn, this is the main point of nofap. Masturbation doesn't hurt you in any form; however porn does, porn is the root problem for everything plaguing young men today.
    If you're feeling horny go for it and bust a nut, USE YOUR IMAGINATION. DON'T USE PORN.
    Stop putting a psychological jail around everything you do.
    Half the reason nofap even became a movement because incels were death grippin' their john, while getting overstimulated with porn. When given the opportunity to get some pussy they weren't able finish or get it up.
    The quality level of sleep I get from either after having sex with release or just masturbation is insane, I feel recharged up and all the irritability I usually feel from abstaining goes away.

      Masturbation is harmful in that it releases the stress hormone which makes you more anxious for the next couple days. People can debate whether it's natural or not, but it is not optimal.

        Not him but getting a job gets some kind of income that you can spend on hobbies (like learning a musical instrument or something that needs money investment). Talking to women is completely pointless though, their standards are too high, and romance shouldn't be work. Effort should be spent only on something you can change.

I'm trying nofap and I'm curious if I'll find a change in attraction to women who I used to reject. I'm currently 26 days in and I'm not sure if much has changed. I think I'd frick a chubby chick though, and I'm currently really regretting some otherwise cute ones that I rejected recently. But I'm also worried that I'd feel a very deep sense of shame afterward if I did frick a chubby girl.
