@Shin What‘s the solution?

I feel like the urge to buy stuff has increased during nofap. Anyone experienced the same?

@MM1988 You can use meditation to let go fully

@Highest I think it is infinite, but it could be “perfectly out of control“ (Leo in his live tripping video).

@Highest Why does consciousness have free will?

Damn that blew my mind. Exactly the jump I needed.

Congrats!?

@Vitamine Water ??

@Vitamine Water It will work out??

@Vitamine Water That‘s why I used past tense?

@Leonid He was just joking :-) @Vitamine Water You did it! Congrats <3 I'm grateful I was able to see your progress and be influenced by it.

What are additional ways to increase dopamine?

@Igor82 To me it feels like emotional purging. I get in tune with the emotional need and try to follow it without resistance and judgement. I also want to understand what it symbolizes for me. Same process as connecting to my inner child. You could say it‘s connecting to the inner wiener. As long as there is still an emotional desire, there will be a cognitive dissonance and a shadow. For example, I don‘t feel the desire to think about stuff with refined sugar anymore. I was able to see the direct connection between the consumption and lack of feelings the next day. But for now, I don‘t -fully- see a direct negative effect of fantasizing. You seem to have experienced it already.

@Vitamine Water Yes, but during meditation I force myself to sit down and not move. Also with thoughts it‘s not as intense as watching vids. If I think about it on purpose, there‘s not this kick I get when doing it in a forbidden context. And those thoughts will come either way.

@Vitamine Water What helps me is to take out a certain amount of time in my meditation to consciously think about the dirtiest stuff possible until the emotional desire and attachment to these visual thoughts is lessened. After that I'm much more able to focus on something I want. Like boobs for example.

@Vitamine Water Congrats on the presentation!

@Vitamine Water Nothing lost, great work! What are you reading?

Has anybody tried visualizing the energy moving upwards without movement involved? Any effects?

@St Clair Crazy skills!❤️

@Vitamine Water Congrats to 40 days! And yeah, probably two of the most horrible things that can happen to a young man: blue screens and blue balls...good luck!?

@Igor82 You‘re welcome? I just imagined you sitting there, almost shitting yourself and laughing out loud in front of this hot girl?

@Igor82 Beautiful improv❤️

@MM1988 My bioenergetic therapist said that once she started, she kept on crying for 7 years... It could take a long time, but I don't think that it will always be as hard as now, just like no one can be happy for a few years straight.

@Vitamine Water I'm here because of @Shin, nice journal! I like the use of categories, keep it going! I started my own journal just now.

My interest in porn has decreased and I don't see any value in watching it. Starting today and aiming for 90 days hard mode. Who wants to be my accountability partner?
