Heyo!! Exciting news yo, I finally think I’ve cured myself. It’s been about two- two and a half months now since I stopped watching porn. I used to have a counter on my whiteboard in my room, and if I messed up and PMO’d I’d restart that counter.
Though, about a month in I decided if I messed up, I’d use a red marker to mark that day and continue on my counter. But alas I didn’t mess up.
The girl who I’ve previously mentioned in other posts I’m still seeing, which we aren’t dating or anything but she has been very understanding of this whole nofap – we had sex again and I’m glad to say my dick was up for the job. Recently came back from Thailand, had a romantic fling, ended up sleeping with her and had absolutely no issues (didn’t even cross my mind O.O).
The only time I actually DID have issues (which I find pretty normal) is when we finished and about 3 minutes later she wanted to go for round 2, which I apologised and tried my best to explain to her I can’t do round two so early after the first – which was hard because she didn’t speak English.
I’m currently 22 years old, used porn for 10 years. I never had an issue with porn and getting aroused by women until I somehow found myself down the ‘shemale rabbit hole’ (pardon the term). And whilst I still could totally open my laptop and still manage to PMO to it, I don’t have urges to do so.
BUT TO SUMMARISE:
- I have MO’d since, 2 times to be exact. Both no porn, one thinking about my little experience in the hotel bathroom with this girl (I won’t bring that up :3)
- Just purely to nothing, just because – no external stimulation.
- The chaser effect obviously still affects me, so be careful if you get to this point.
- THE MOST IMPORTANT POINT OF ALL. DO NOT OVERTHINK YOUR DICK IS BROKEN.
In my experience, being on this sub started off as a good idea, granted. BUT the more time I spent on it, the more my subconscious made me depressed when I thought about how I couldn’t perform, when all along I was even suffering that bad. I’m not putting this sub down, just try to limit how much you are on it, as this is with anything like smoking. in my experience, the more focus you put on quitting i.e. creating a counter for yourself and getting extremely down when you fail (and RESTART the counter), the harder you are going to make it on yourself.
Stay positive! Don’t get down on yourself if you feel like you aren’t getting anywhere. I thought for sure nothing was happening until I unexpectedly found myself in bed with this girl. THINGS ARE CHANGING and WORKING no matter how much you feel like they aren’t.
