I want to gather some useful information about nofap
There are two sides to nofap, people who say it improved their life and people who say it's just a meme
I have a feeling that the benefits of nofap are largely todo with other factors like height and already existing social status
Please take this survey and help clear this mystery, it's all anonymous

Just did the survey. Interested in the results. Good job, user.
We're off to a good start
That's me, later incels.
>nofap virgin vs. semenretention chad
somebody make this
day 5 of noporn, day 12 of nofap.
quick question
masturbation is a known form of stress relief, so why then do people who are on no fap say they feel less stressed?
I think it depends on the person as some people report being very irritable/angry on nofap, which is a form of stress. For me though, it's because it's because I have less anxiety.
my dick is over 7 inches but less than 8. fix your survey, loser
the survey is retarded, i faked my answers
>my dick is... less than 8
OH NO NO NO NO
masturbation is extremely stressful. it just makes you slightly lobotomied for a bit.
it also makes you not care about things as much so that's an indirect cause:
>before fapping i was stressed because i wanted to make something of myself and was thus working on my life
>but after fapping i don't care if i'm a weak little slime boy so now i am no longer committed to working towards my goals.
>the fact that i am just a lazy goo gobber sitting on the couch instead of being active equates to less overall stress
>and mentally, because of the fapping, my mind is at ease with just a bag of snacks and a screen to look at whereas otherwise i would have fiery urges to do things; such mental activity would have caused stress.
post dick
oh sorry, I made a mistake there, should have put something like 7-8 and then 8+
just round it to the closest number, girls aren't that good at measuring anyway
What are some good ways to graph some of this information? any statistics boys here?
So masturbation causes no stress, it just makes you quit working towards the goals which are causing you the stress in the first place.
Sounds like senjataimu is kicking in.
I tried masturbating to relieve stress amd anxiety last year and it does work for a few minutes or so and then it comes back + post nut guilt.
try reading the first sentence of that post one more time. would you consider a lobotomy to be stressful? the act itself is stressful but afterwards you may not feel as stressed because your brain is now potato.
every time you bust a nut it's like your entire nervous system getting beat with a jackhammer.
under job you should include education
btw nofap is a meme. The supposed confidence boost is placebo and/or just acheiving a goal rather than any natural effect. It just leaves you horny. I unintentionally havent released in 3 days and today I've gotten a ton of narbs and noticed touching my dick a lot while at home but that's it.
porn is legit bad for you though. Don't get off to videos of other people fucking. That's cybercucking
>t. guy who's never been 90 days nonut
probably can't even go three weeks desu
Why don't you just try it yourself and see if it's real or not instead of debating all the time. The best proof is your own experience.
I’ve gone 6 months, nothing happens except being horny AF.
Porn is actually what’s most detrimental.
The ones that reach a nirvana or some sense of euphoria are probably chronic masturbators — with nofap, they’re dealing with their addiction.
Nofap fixed my death grip syndrome and inability to cum from sex. But other than that I'm not gonna act like it changed my life or fixed my diagnosed autism spectrum disorder like all these retards preach. Just my two cents.
Except Lobotomies are used to literally cure psychological ailments and the people afterwards can still live totally normal lives so I don't understand your point.
If Masturbation relieves your stress at the cost of making you less likely to achieve your goals due to how much mental/physical pain it would inflict upon you then perhaps it is appropriate to change your goals instead of allowing yourself to suffer.
Nofap is placebo, practice in seating gratification. Not saying either of those things are bad but don’t fool yourself. If you want to be extra autistic about your long term health you’re going to want to clean those pipes every couple weeks in an isolation tank or something. Fucking grow up.
*delaying gratification
Interested in the results, I thought it was a meme for a while, but honestly I'm starting to think it's more than just a meme and this board is filled with crabfags
I feel it improved my life greatly. But I need to preface this by saying that nofap will only really help you if you have a problem or fapping is affecting your life. For me I was going 5-10x a DAY everyday. So for months straight my cock would be sore and my erections weak, no morning wood, and when I busted it was very little and all clear. Obviously this is a problem. I was horribly anxious, couldn’t make eye contact, couldn’t even speak to a girl. Was getting uncontrollable panic attacks. Couldn’t even stick to a diet, id fap and then binge eat after. I was using like a pot of coffee a day too just because I was basiclaly depleting dopamine by fapping so much. A few weeks into nofap and all the issues are 75% gone. No longer need caffeine and can literally just stop drinking coffee with no headaches or fatigue (still having just one cup). I’ve lost like 12 lbs. I feel confident ad extremely sure of myself. Granted I have my moments but I can make eye contact and speak to women. I also started seeing girls as just people and not sexual objects. This is a little autistic, but when I saw women as something I need to fuck, I felt immense pressure to be alpha around her (coupled with the shame from beating it 10x in one day). Now idgaf because I see that they’re just people. I can also feel calm in public now where before I was so tense I couldn’t even walk normal, my arms would get stiff and I’d speed walk like a virgin, now it’s gone. Will power is insane, just to test myself I’ve fasted for a few days here and there and got through with no problems. I’m also much happier.
Unfortunately I failed yesterday and today after 3 weeks. Had to call a drs office and stuttered and spewed with the receptionist. It is what it is, right back to it. But yes. It definitely helps.
>nofap is easy now that I'm not a teenager
>start taking certain supplements that increase the size of your load
>need to fight the urge to look at porn, want to fuck every woman in sight
I don't know if this is a good thing or bad thing. A strong libido can be fun but also distracting.
Why is there no question about nofap leading me to hate women
It is a meme, but it can teach you self control.
Just treat it like getting rid of any other bad habit, not like some magic secret that will fix all your problems in life.
I made a thread when I reached a full year, you can check this link if you want to see what I went trhough in detail
I never even imagined I'd have a girlfriend for some reason. 25y khv jackin it ery day. Never even talked to a girl.
1 week no fap I randomly asked out my apartment neighbor I just met after leaving home recently and LATER VIRGINS.
Should I just delete all my porn? I have so much tracks to get rid of. Fucking nearly a TB of h-anime, 3DPD, and h-manga.
you're angry at things you should be angry at stop being a niceguy
I don't get angry on nofap, I was just saying someone on here said that they did.
Dude why are there no negative answers?
Damn son, this is big if true. Would you say porn is the biggest issue or just fapping itself? I feel like fapping normally doesn't really have any negative effect on me if I do it once a week or so. It's when I go full degenerate mode and start fapping to porn 3 times a day that things get bad.
>being a negative nancy
The problem is def porn. You create tolerance to the videos you consume, and then you need more hardcore things to get off.
Just compare the vids you looked into when you started fapping to what you consume now.
There's plenty of evidence that suggest that watching porn is really bad for your brain, a very dangerous phenotypic indulgence, like a drug, you are misleading your brain into believing that you are having sex when all you are doing is jerking off.
youtube.com
If you want to masturbe, ok, as long as you don't consume porn i don't really care.
How do you intend to interpret the data with a mixture of ordinal and nominal level variables
What is your research hypothesis
Yeah, that was my impression as well. Problem is, fapping without porn is kind of like a "gateway drug". Every time I do that, I get insanely horny and then end up fapping 2 more times that day to progressively more fucked up porn.
Best way would be to just not fap whatsoever, though that's going to be ridiculously difficult for me as I've never gone more than a couple of weeks before. Does it get ever get any easier?
Scatterplot with prediction line where time on nofap is always the independent variable.
If you have a problem not watching porn just install "stayfocused" and put on the blacklist all the webs you fap to. It does get easier, but make it even easier by staying away from your Ipad, phone,or the device you use to consume porn.
You could use all that time and energy you spend on watching that uberdegenerate video in something that improves you or your community, or even both.
Thanks for the advice bro. What routine are you running the gym currently? Progress pics look great (no homo)
>nofap will only really help you if you have a problem or fapping is affecting your life
This is categorically false. Nofap will make you brain go into survival mode to where you have to get that nut. Nofap counters the effects of years of self mollifying.

Every normal male manages to get laid and get a girlfriend while masturbating regularly, often to porn. If you feel like you have to do No Fap to get a gf you've already failed and it won't solve your problems.
I’m amazed by the amount of virgins. I didn’t think it was such a high percentage
I quit drugs
I quit smoking
I quit drinking
I quit eating shit
But I simply cannot quit fapping and pornography. I always fail. I always fall of the horse, I am completely addicted.
You have to be a virgin to think nofap works
So that makes having a crippling porn addiction OK? Getting laid isn't the end goal. You're still fucking yourself up and hindering your potential by fapping to porn.
Never in my life have I inquired about no fap but! What about general sex does that count?
Fapping leads you to weirder and weirder porn,i was into femdom and went from whipping to strapon and to scat and spit-consumption videos.
now i havent seen porn in like, 3 years.
i can do 100 pushups and 10 pullups within 3 minutes.
im still kinda autistic but i got my first kiss and had to turn down several offers for sex.
nofap surely works!
even if you're a lewd man,it makes more sense to nofap so you can get a succubi spirit to visit you
based stardust the super wizard poster
I was. Then I nofapped for 2 weeks and ended up banging a girl I'd been into for ages but never had the courage to make a move on. Felt like a totally different person. Highly doubt it was purely placebo, but either way, it works.
Nofap without sex is the standard but some people opt for nofap as a means of having better sex
im not proud of it but i made a grindr account to see if i COULD,in theory,get sex(from a ts girl)
A very hot girl wanted to meet me within minutes of conversation.
She had a bigger dick than mine tho, and i didnt really want gay sex.
but im officially a Volcel now,since i have a real chance of sex.
Yikes
Porn is extremely damaging and every male should quit it completely, and also if you're masturbating stupidly often you should cut down, but if you have to pursue such extreme measures as permanent abstinence to try and get a girlfriend then your problems go far deeper
kinda related to wet dreams,a commun occurence while on nofap
I took it your survey. At the time I did nofap I had a light porn addiction, however I managed to break my addiction and now it makes no difference for me. I no longer feel more confident or anything, so now I just fap whenever I feel like it, generally a few times a week.
Looks more like 4 hrs of sleep vs 8 hrs of sleep.
im on month 5 of nofap and have these things to say:
1. after the first week, i got this crazy testosterone surge and i felt like fighting people, i was easily irritated and was hornier than ever
2. once i got past the first 2 weeks, i started to calm down
3. after like 2 months, i started noticing that i was less affected by small stress and would stand up for myself when absolutely needed. i'm a short introverted manlet (5'4") and i'm naturally pretty timid and a pushover but if someone on the street threatened me or someone did me wrong, i did not hesitate to respond back.
4. after 3 months, i felt kinda the same as before except i felt this inner peace, before when i fapped i would always feel empty inside but on nofap i felt confident and peaceful.
5. now on month 4, i notice i'm not afraid to be around hot girls or anything. i'm also not as fiendishly lustful as before when i watched porn. my free time is spent just idly laying around but i picked up a few hobbies.
tl;dr the benefits of nofap are greatly exaggerated but the practice of nofap will strengthen your willpower and you will feel a sense of self control you never had before
>literal middle age bullshit
>current year + 4
Are you a boomer or something?
Have sex
embrace medievalism, it was a purer time ,now we are in a moral crisis
>Potato is my life goal. Anything else is two hard.
>purer time
>witch burnings and pagan executions everywhere
>feudalism and monarchy means you're stuck as a peasant unless you get lucky and some nobleman adopts you
>you could literally die from a fucking rat rubbing on you and basically any disease around the strength of a flu could kill you
>on top of that lol no technology so have fun walking everywhere and hoping to score ink and paper and hoping the message boy didn't get killed by Vikings so you can talk to somebody
Stop going on Jow Forums it's bad for your brain
>he opposes social hierarchy and hereditary caste
not gonna make it
>life was fucking hard so it wasn't relatively pure
fake news.
>he believes in genetic superiority and socioeconomic constructs designed for oppression and exploitation
Try reading more literature and history.
I don't consider class based discrimination along infringement of the common man's liberties to be a standard of purity.
Unless you consider your the coerced chastity which was one of the tenets of Christendom oppression as "purity".
Based. How did you pull her?
>le Jewish conspiracy
Yeah, well... I don't know..
it's not a meme but it is kind of overblown. It doesn't make you into chad. It gives you the energy and desire to become chad. It's fucking INSANE how better you do socially when on NoFap
>Do you have a job?
>Doesn't list college student or internship.
bro cmon
>caring about whether some guy touches himself or not
>post dick
Clearly gay like all nofap preachers
Can anyone else only be hard when laying or sitting down? If i stand up with wood it will deflate back down. Whats the cure bros?
I don't believe in any "superpowers" when it comes to nofap. But I do believe it is beneficial for some. I feel like a disgusting animal who is controlled by my urges when I jerk off. I naturally gain confidence and more self-esteem when I stop doing that.
people who do nofap also quit porn
Stop masturbating

you only feel superpowers when you're living purely not ejaculating is just one small step in purifying your body
I've been working towards some spiritual cleansing. Reading Meditations by Aurelius is helping with annoyance at little things, and anxiety overy the future.
Delete it. You don't want to store this shit into your hard drive like a cuck anymore. If you feel horny search for sex instead,
I haven't touched my dick since Monday.
I will never have sex.
I am a pathetic virgin who doesn't understand how to connect with people.
I engage in lifting and have the audacity to call it my hobby knowing full well I secretly hope at some point in the future I can declare myself fit and I will also magically become social because this is a fantasy born of the desperation I feel when I hear everyone around me involved in systems I will never understand engaging in the consummation of love that I disdain as slutty because I’m afraid if I can't find a reason to dismiss rampant sexuality, I won't have any grounds to lie to myself and say that my involuntary abstinence is in some twisted mangled way a good thing
In the end I believe that proceeding down the path of arbitrary engagement will lead to some form of rehabilitation where I slowly overcome my social anxiety but the truth is I choose not to improve for fear that my already existing inability to communicate should not be exposed, and this creates a feedback loop where I find myself unable to involve myself in other people's lives for the very reason I’m insecure in the first place
In the end I am the culmination of the biological desires for a human being to form a family unit and the hardwired drive for sexual gratification mixing with a cultural obsession with pure true love and ultimate selfless devotion to another human being fuelled by an obsession with anime as an outlet for the emotional variety I don't experience in real life
I am a failed human being
I am a failed psyche
This is my fault
Its kind of helped me pursue relationships and women in general more. Easy to just let things slide of you jack off instead but if you actually just don´t do that you get hornier and put more effort into finding a girl.
Although I did end up having wet dreams again which is just a bother so I´m just gonna jack off less and only no-fap for a week at most.
did you just say that sticking a needle up your eye socket into your brain is a totally fine practice? kek
What's the worst fetish you've been to before NoFap. I'm convinced that you have to cross a certain kind before finally deciding that it needs to stop.
In my case it's:
>Legit Rape
>Piss
>Spit
>Electrocution
>Bakky Videos
>wahh wahh
There are uglier and shorter people than you shagging out there. Get a 6 pack, massive forearms and low enough bf for the death by paper cut vascularity and it will come. You like being sad, you’ve internalised it as your personality
Stop romanticising your problems, fucking lift and get a prostitute so you can see sex is literally not a big of deal as you make it out to be
It seems like there's a lot of bro science in there. It almost makes sense in theory, but there's been studies on the correlation between masturbation and testosterone, and it doesn't influence it on the long term, just small variations during and after masturbation. It it was so influential, every pro athlete would abstain from sex and masturbation, but that's not the case
This is literally me, I am quite fit, been lifting for 4 years, people told I'm good looking, but insecurity fucks with every aspect of my life, I also used to use anime as an escape route, but at some point my anxiety and insecurity kicked in and I started to feel anxious even watching anime cause I thought of myself as unworthy compared to the fucking fictional characters. I also have all this paranoid schizo thoughts like I think all I'd need is some pure form of love and affection, but then I imagine that I wouldn't be able to manage something like that due to my fucked up anxious mind
Anyone else got issues with low libido after starting it? I am on day 7.
yeah, the low libido will last a couple weeks max but it will come back an stronger than ever eventually
Headcrush through thigh scissor.
I'm 5 days in and I already feel much better. Nofap is definitely not a meme
nofap is a meme, the real thing is noporn
Get out of porn and you will start fapping less and less. Eventually you will be fapping every other day and you won't feel the urge.
Checked
Hey OP
In the survey the question of dick size is wrong. Mine is 7.5 inches and I didn't have a correct option. The last option should be 7"+ instead of 8"+
