[Day 7] : Updates (self.nofap)

From now on, I’ve decided not to count the number of days or post updates here regularly. Every time I track my progress by counting days, I plant the thought of "Oh, I’ve been porn-free for X days," which keeps the idea of relapse alive in my mind. Over time, I’ve realized that whenever I focus on counting, I eventually relapse. So I asked myself: "What am I counting for?" Because constantly thinking about it means I'm still giving it space in my head.

To explainn what I mean, here’s an example: If I tell you to think of an elephant, then a monkey, then a coin, and then ask you to think of an elephant again, now, what if I tell you not to think of an elephant? You’ll probably still picture one. Why? Because I planted that thought in your head.

This is exactly what happens when we track our progress obsessively. We get fixated on the number instead of the real growth.

That being said, I’m not giving up on my Nofap journey, I’m just shifting my focus. I’ll keep going, and if I relapse, I’ll post about it. But from now on, I won’t let numbers define my progress.

TFA! Honestly, I don't feel urges anymore, also my sleep quality has improved a lot, I don't think it's necessarily all because of not fapping, but partly because of not feeling the urge to look for that one last dopeamine hit, now I can fall asleep easily without needing distractions like my phone, this has also helped me fix my natural body clock, I’ve been waking up early consistently, and I think it’s less about quitting corn and more about saving my energy and taking proper naps.

Another big change is my focus, I can sit and concentrate for longer periods without feeling the need to chase activities that give a quick dopamine hit. Sure, those thoughts still pop up occasionally, but I’ve learned to shake them off and move on.

Yeah, I also wanna share that, In these 46 days, I haven’t once looked at any kind of explicit content, and I’ve been actively working on improving my lifestyle, eating healthy, working out regularly, and maintaining a consistent sleep schedule.

If you’re thinking about starting, I’d say go for it. It’s tough at first, but the benefits are absolutely worth it, also someone in this communtiy posted an ebook for quitting corn, and it's really helpful, you should give it a try : easy-peasy-method
