Is it as good as everybody is making out? I don't mean those hilarious idiots talking about super-powers (might eat my words if I miraculously develop those)

I'm on day 3, it's hard (literally - I told a fuck buddy about it and she wont stop trying to get me to cave in, sending nudes on Snapchat etc, lol)

Reasons: I've fallen back into my under-confident state, lacking motivation to do any approaches, I'm out of work and I don't like night clubs, so mall-game is my only option basically until I start college (I'm 25, going back to college)

Been fapping every day since I was about 11, I'm 25 now. I've obviously had sex inbetween, but I don't get THAT horny and I lose my erection temporarily quite a lot during sex - usually at least once per lay, its never awkward cause I just tell her to put it in her mouth or something and it fixes it... but my sex drive is insanely low too. I'm hoping No Fap will fix both of those problems and give me some confidence back, also some motivation for cold approaches in the mall etc, but what else will it bring?

What are your experiences? (also any tips on sticking at it and fighting urges?)

most science shows it's complete nonsense except maybe over the few hours immediately following. But I guess the placebo effect works on some people.

It works man, having done it, I can assure you you will like it. It's hella hard tho for sure, I was the same way when I was younger.

Here's a weird thing, if I fap about a girl I haven't fucked yet, I almost always fail with that girl...idk why it just happens. It's like they know you fapped to them and feel the neediness.

Get to day 6 or 7, you should notice a huge difference. Other things can also affect your sex drive like diet and exercise.

That first picture, oh my God. Lol, sorry but you're trying to make another guy masturbate... using your PUA skills in the wrong way brother ;) haha.

Thanks for the replies, guys. Nothing to lose I suppose.

I'd argue that going no porn is more important than no fapping. But either way you'll see a difference

What kind of differences are you guys talking about? I've heard negatives like fatigue, but I've also heard a lot of positives?

To the guy above: Well, I'm not going to be watching porn if I can't slap one out... but yea I get what you mean. If I were to cave, it'd be an imagination based wank lol.

Sex doesn't count, right? I'll definitely be having sex.

But yea, what kind of differences?

Hahaha, Lol.

It depends. If you're not doing any agressive sports or hardcore exercising, then jack off once a week. Day 5 is when your hormones are crazy. That's what I did before the rugby season.

If you are in a contact sport, you're good. You get hardons all the fucking time by day 2 or 3.

You have better focus if you don't masturbate. I don't remember any negative experience except losing it the first time quickly, but I can go right to round 2...

If you can't go three days without it being a struggle, then yeah, you have a problem.
Beat it smart like any other addiction. Break the habit through division and modest reduction.

If you're doing it daily, then cut it in half to every other day and do it without using porn. You can watch porn afterwards if you want. But stop fapping with porn.

When that no longer takes much effort(probably a couple of weeks), step it down again. Once every 4-5 days.

Doing anything cold turkey makes you less likely to succeed and tends to bring vastly more issues with internal conflict and emotional drain.

From what I've read is that porn practically reprograms your brain to understand what sex is. Instead of the visuals and the physical feelings you get from actual intercourse that come from sex, it is substituted by the visions of unrealistic angles/views you get from porn (unless it's strictly POV, I suppose) and the feeling of your palm/grip on your junk. So even if you manage to get the hottie you've been chasing in bed, it just won't feel the same because it's not what your mind was hoping for. Your mind wanted sex, but not real sex, it wants porn, so you may not perform at peak level.

I've also read that porn can give you the same chemical reaction in your brain as a hit of crack, and that's how you get hooked. You want another hit, and unless you can control it, you start to crave something stronger. Eventually, you start to get into kink, and fetishes, and so forth. People have lost everything due to their addictions.

I realize I've gone on about porn when the topic was originally about fapping, but seriously, who's fapping without porn?

Watch Don Jon if you haven't already. Though it does have some triggers, it overall covers this subject.

No I don't, at all lol, just habit/fuck buddy playing tricks on me. I just had a fuck buddy sending nudes, phoning me and playing with herself... telling ms she'll be staying away and not letting me get any kind of release until I've caved, lol. The only things that are in any way a struggle, are the habitual side of it, and her being a tease. Day 4 (I think) is easier than day 2... weird.

Same thing happens to a lot of people when they stop drinking alcohol: The first 48 to 72 hours can be the most challenging; after that it is sometimes easier as the body gets used to and enjoys not having those chemicals being put into the system.
