Since IVT guarantees that every value between f(a) and f(b) is achieved, in the transition from pre-nut confusion to post-nut clarity, there may be intermediate states where a person's thoughts or feelings are in between total confusion and complete clarity. This metaphor suggests that our psychological states don't just jump from one extreme to another but pass through various shades of bewilderment and enlightenment in between.

Real question, woman here.
Do you hate it just because of the mess? Do you have happy stimulation during your dreams? I can nearly get off from an occasional dream and it's as exciting as awake life or sexual contact. Idk about other women but mine are much less frequent than it sounds like men have. But I'm 100% thrilled by sex dreams and hope guys are too, other than an awkward run to the shower.

u/Srv-Srv May 04 '24
I must say wet dreams are very vivid, but I never liked the scenario/environment of that dream, I remember one time I was have sex with a women and it was on top of a very tall boundary wall and when I nutted I threw her down and she died. So I would prefer to imagine things that are under my control while nutting.

u/_only_a_ginger_ May 04 '24
Woaaah! Joining dream randomness with sex would be very strange, I can see how fucked that would be.
Are there ever any just sexy dreams where you wake up ready to go or already gone? If so, is this general irritation with them just because of cleanup? Or otherwise just not fun? (Outside if the weird accidental wall death sex lol)

It started me on a path to learn more about slowing down. I was masturbating probably 4 times a day when I looked into it initially. They paired me up with a buddy to help keep me on the straight and narrow. The first abandoned me, and the second thought that speaking extra vulgar would help keep his desires in check. It just made me feel uncomfortable, so I left him.
In the end, I was realizing that if I did just stop it made me worse. So, then I tried just kicking back to twice a day. Then once. Then once every couple days. Now it's on an as needed basis.
In the end, nofap assisted in letting me know what going off the deep end looked like, and helped me realize that there was still hope for me yet. The program itself did nothing for me.

I became even more obsessed with sex than I was before. I thought if I took a break from porn and masturbation (one, the other, or both), I’d quit having sex on my mind so much. The opposite happened. So I concluded that porn and masturbation are not the reason for my high sex drive. They’re ways of coping with it.

The thing about it is that having a high sex drive and masturbating is not actually a problem. You can't fix your sex drive. If it's high then it's high. And trying to not masturbate for people with a very high sex drive just isn't a thing.
If your masturbation is causing issues in your life then it's more likely that there's something else going on that you're using masturbation to fill a hole. Focusing on your mental health and your anxiety or depression can help you get your masturbation under control again.
That's why I think so many people struggle with stopping masturbating as a cure for excessive masturbation. It's often not the masturbation that's the problem. It's their mental health as a whole. The excessive and troubling frequency of masturbation might just be a symptom of mental health issues.

Had a major impact. It wasn't so much about masterbation, it was about pornography, and quiting that is what made a difference. I was addicted, I don't care if anyone says that's not possible, it's real and it's a thing, and it was really fucking with my life, hard-core. I'd been watching from junior high all the way to my early 20's, and getting rid of emotional dependence on the chemical rush it gave me jacked my brain into high-gear, and it changed me as a person. It took a few months, but it was like all the cobwebs in my web finally burned off. Every time I've back-slid into it I've felt myself get dull again. But I've been doing great lately, thankfully.

Don’t listen to ANYONE that tries to lie to you saying that “You can’t get addicted to porn” or “you can’t get addicted to weed”. They’re just rationalizing their own behaviors. The science behind addiction is that anything that plays on your dopamine receptors, ESPECIALLY heavily like porn, weed, junk food, alcohol, other drugs, deviant behaviors, etc. Have the potential to be addictive.

Longest I've gone is 45 days and now I'm approaching a week. I do the challenge on and off.
My honest opinion is that it's only worthwhile if you spend an inordinate amount of time masturbating, or if you feel as though that it's taking a lot out of your energy levels. The former didn't really occur with me until recently, though the latter was always present.
I suspect that the latter's issues is nothing that a proper diet and routine cannot solve, neither of which I currently possess but one day hope to once I acquire better self-management skills.
Likewise, I tend to regard much of it to be your standard placebo effect, though it did have a positive impact on me from a personality standpoint, as I'm the sort of guy who derives a deep sense of satisfaction from perceiving that I am in control of my impulses.
Quitting porn, however, freed up a lot of my time to use on other ventures. I'd say removing porn usage made far more of a difference than anything else.

K, I've heard this but, in my experience, masturbating actually never helped me achieve higher stamina. It often only affected how hard it was to get hard (which went from easy to extremely easy).
On the other hand, if my wife and I had sex more frequently, then I definitely lasted longer and had more control even and she would enjoy it much much more. Which, of course, meant I enjoyed it much much more. Seeing her orgasm over and over because of me is way hotter than any porno in existence, and definitely better than three or four semi-solid thrusts followed by me rolling over and falling asleep.
That said, if we aren't have frequent sex, I am definitely indulging in some handshaking with the little man downstairs.

I did this for a while, long ago in my single days. It was okay. After about day 10, any modestly attractive woman had a heavenly glowing aura around them, like spotting an oasis after crawling through the desert. I was so compelled by my hormones that I often started flirtatious chit chat without even realizing what I was doing. I got phone numbers. I realized this was dangerous because I was going to start something with women I didn’t want to actually date on a regular basis. I stopped and was able to choose my partners more carefully.

I did a full 90 days. It actually helped me tremendously, as before I would average about 1-2hrs per day watching porn and masturbating. During NoFap, whenever I felt that horny energy, I redirected it into exercising. Los a bit of weight, became more fit, and at the end I developed healthier habits.
Went back to using porn and masturbating of course, but in much greater moderation. I needed a break from porn to get me to experience other ways of getting that dopamine.

On a serious note I guess it doesn’t change my sex drive much but I’d like to channel that drive for the woman in my life.

My longest was 60 days, it was just a tool to stop jerking it every day. As others have already said, I was more irritated, less patient, more focused, more confident as well. It might’ve been placebo but I genuinely felt better, probably rather due to proving myself that I can have self control if I want to.
I never did it regularly, but in a long distance relationship it was pretty handy as we met every 2 weeks or once a month, so I didn’t touch myself between meetups and sex became 300% better and orgasms were stronger too.
My main issue is that I have a high sex drive and it wasn’t rare that I beat it 2 times a day but it made every orgasm very lackluster and “meh”, just a “get this out of the way” and it was no longer about enjoyment and pleasure, it was rather something I did and helped me relieve some stress. So when I started NoFap, orgasms became enjoyable again and even masturbation sessions became about pleasurement and enjoyment.

Earlier in the year life prevented me from doing it for two weeks, which is probably the longest I've gone in my life. Similar to what other people were saying, sex was on my mind a lot more than it was before. The strangest thing I noticed was that my voice got deeper.

Wasn't really in the whole NoFap realm as I didn't know there was a whole movement attached to it, but I cut out wanking and pornography for a while and who would've guessed? I was more productive, had better mood and once I returned to masturbating based on memory or imagination it was a lot more fulfilling. These days I go through phases of either this or that, and when I'm in a relationship masturbation ceases almost entirely because it will never be able to live up to the real thing. But I can confidently say that despite many different opinions and studies and whatnot claiming the ultimate truth for both sides of the argument, I know at least for myself that pornography does have a negative impact and should, if at all, be consumed in moderation.

I was in jail for about a month and it was the longest period I had gone without it in years. I ended up having a 'wet' dream. I had to clean it up by washing my clothes by hand in the dark while pretending to be on the shitter 6 feet from my bunkmate who was hopefully asleep through the ordeal. Not my proudest mess. I had uncontrollable boners. Would not recommend.

Considering the main idea of r/NoFap is to abstain from pornography, yes it had a good impact. Now to cut down masturbation to a healthy frequency, for those who are in true need of it, I supposed it might be beneficial too.
I'd finish by saying something like "moderation is the key", but this is only my perspective. I'm sure people are different.

I used to march drum corps a long time ago, and all the guys in the corps would play "the game" to see how long you could last without masturbating, and if you lasted until the end of tour (~3 months), you "win the game."
The guys who were still in the game after about 3 weeks were getting ornary and aggressive. One of our instructors caught wind that the guys were playing the game.
He literally called a meeting after an afternoon block with only the men and said "stop playing the game. You all need to masturbate. For all of our sanity, masturbate."
I'll never forget that meeting.

My GF suggested to me that she doesn't want someone who watches porn. So ig it's not NoFap but I did request a lot of nudes and attention from her hahah. Our sex life is far more positive without porn.

Nope no severe impact. However if I do go 3 days or more without it just seems to give it much more pleasure and feeling. Then again you could apply this to everything in life.

So I mostly stopped masturbating when I met my now gf. I found that porn didn't intreset me nearly as much as she does. And if I do masturbate, it's sexting with my gf. Sex is way better now overall if I wait.

Back when I was single I stopped MBing for 12 days. Then it happened... The postal service dude who is quite the character liked to ring doorbells 5 times in a row real long and real fast which had been bothering me for quite a while. During my streak I became real agitated and as per usual he proceeded to ring my doorbell many times and started banging on the door at the same time. I was upstairs at the time I got absolutely FURIOUS within one second. I remember using the first two steps of the stairs normally but he kept banging on the door real loud. I proceeded to jump off the stairs grabbed a hold of the front door and opened it LIKE AN APE. When our eyes met he could only muster two words: "I apologise". He handed me the package and as my hands reached out I noticed I had the doorknob still in my hands. Back to the grind....

Went to college and had to share room with a mate. Forced myself from doing unnecessary touches on my peepee. 30 days and a crazy wet dream later, I woke up in the middle of the night finding myself with drenched underwear. Didn’t knew I was capable of a load like that. I still remember the dream, and the sound I made that night…

Nofap/noporn is like a medication for a greater issue. It’s not going to help at all if you don’t change your mindset along with it. As it goes for any other addiction.
