Nofap has been the most crucial tool to enhance my life. I have stopped my addictions. The thrill and rush I get from a cute girl’s smile after just simply complimenting her on her cute dress is almost unbearable.

90 days and counting… Firstly believe it or not I do not think I have fully rebooted, for the following reason. I am on a slow right track to get my life better; I will get there however I am not going to beat myself up about it. Anyway just 20 minutes to read this […]
It has been the most productive two months I’ve had in a few years. I wouldn’t say I’m more confident but, I’m just more in control. I handle my emotions and set backs a lot better. The first month I felt really emotional, I think this was withdrawal. My brain isn’t getting hit with fapping […]
