I’ve been on and off w/ nofap since 2015. I want to know what you guys think.
Did you get any benefits from it?

I feel a bit less lethargic but that's about it.
I have been doing it on and off since 2011/12. I stopped altogether in December 2020, I can guarantee you that it's placebo. Just a huge circlejerk, basically.
It could definitely be placebo. Did you experience mental clarity and absence of brain fog? Did you have more energy?
More energy is probably the only benefit I got, but then again these last few months I was able to masturbate before going to bed and wake up only two or three hours later, so I don't think masturbation has got anything to do with it. It really is just placebo in my case, maybe it works for others, but I can safely say that almost after a decade it's done nothing special for me. Even when I was on a decent streak, it felt like I was still masturbating somehow, even though I was avoiding both porn and masturbating.
I’m trying no porn atm

I've been doing it since 2009 I think. (currently on a 67-day streak).
It won't give you superpowers or significantly improve your life in any way.
I feel slightly better about myself than when I'm fapping regularly and it's good to know that I could develop my self-discipline to such a level.
When I see couples and stuff like that, I feel slightly less bad.
Once again, the emphasis is on slightly.

i reverse the side effects of fapping by fapping more
yes, it made my balls hurt very bad
All nofap is is just a basic exercise in self control that anyone should be able to do. There is nothing wrong with fapping, but you have some self control issues if you can't take a few days off. You definitely won't have a different personality or looks after doing nofap, especially.

No. I could never do it. Most I could was one week.
And after many tries I'm fairy certain now that the cause and effect are actually reversed. I am able to refrain from fapping BECAUSE I am feeling good and more energetic and less depressed, etc. After a few days this temporary feeling of euphoria (whatever cause it might have) fades away and then I fall into the pit of cooming again.
If nofap was causing this euphoria then it wouldn't fade away after some time.

Does nothing for me. Did it for a week and still felt the same. It's better to have a better diet & sleeping pattern.
fapping is not bad, unless you over do it, but porn is always bad and the porn addiction can hurt your relationships with women more than anything.
Like I'd fucking know, I can't even last a day. My dopamine receptors must be fried beyond belief at this point.
Just download a porn blocker app on your phone and computer device.
don't think that will be a issue for most of us then

Day 78
I mostly managed to numb my sex drive to a tolerably low level.
My dreams however have been turning more erotic in the last couple of nights. Usually, I dream about sex every night in the very early period of streaks, but not after.
In the first two months I had serious mood swings in every 6-8 days, I was either super horny for days and I could barely concentrate on the simplest things, or I was rather calm and mentally focused. In terms of sex drive, I've had a pleasantly calm period since the end of February (my last escort visit). I seem to have mastered the mindset of resisting the temptation to peek or edge and anything like that.
I hope that I will eventually become a completely asexual and emotionless shell of a human, so that I will no longer feel any sexual desire or mental pain resulting from my subhuman way of life.
However, my mind is still running wild with conflicted thoughts (not related to sex), it is much harder to control than a porn addiction.

It worked for making me 10 times as horny and desperate for sex.
No. 3 months and almost 2 weeks of semen retention and I ended up having other addictions to video games, my instagram meme page and others, so my life is still shit and broke. It is not only over for me in the dating market, but in everything in life. I'm only 18 and my life is already a fucking joke as I live with shitty parents.
No. NoFap lasted 1 Month.
I end up nutting in a wet dream anyway

Day 117
I hoped that my sex drive would decrease to a tolerable level by now. I was wrong.
