It's been 1101 days of hard mode and 5 years of nofap for me. I feel compelled to share all that I've learned about overcoming depression and anxiety (and the sweet life beyond). I'll explain why I started nofap, why I went so long in hard mode, and why I'm finally giving it up. Would anyone be interested in something like this in the format of a short book that explains step by step how I did it and how anyone can do it? If so also post any questions you would like to see answered.

Hi guys, haven't posted in a while. Looks like I'm about to hit 800 days soon but who cares. I've been going hard mode and still am currently. Only reason I'm even posting is I feel a strong sense of responsibility to tell this for anyone out there thinking it's a good idea to go hard mode for a long time and see where it leads.

It's definitely better than fapping and if you've set your mind then go for it more power to you. But don't make my mistake and reject every single girl in your life. I've never had the best luck with girls before nofap but I took it too far with the hard mode and let some really great women slip.

Women who told me they were in love with me and I was in love with

Said no one ever. :))))) 700 days woot.

EDIT: Thanks for the love guys. This is the thing I'm most proud of in my life and my highest accomplishment. It's the thing I'm best at. It's my hero's journey.

The other night I went out and I could not keep the girls off of me. I imagine this is how a model feels at a party. I had to make excuses to get away from them. They were fighting to keep me around. It was unreal. I had to wade through them to get to the girl I actually wanted to talk to and she liked me right away. Her sister was there with her bf but she kept trying to touch me too. What's crazy is that there were more guys than girls there. That's just one night. Don't get me started on women at work. You always hear pickup artists talk about having a mindset of abundance. I actually have abundance and I think it shines. If you're looking to meet women nofap is the best way.

I wanted to share this because I'm excited for the future. Maybe some of my positivity can rub off on you guys.

Had a huge spike of success when I graduated with my Masters and got a new job and moved to a new state/city. Then got slapped with a giant down time where I just felt like absolute crap. (I call this down time instead of flat line because it's not exactly the same, a downtime is like a flat line but you don't NOT feel anything instead you feel like crap and overall bad). I didn't feel like going outside my house and was getting constant pain and sad feelings the whole time. Was still able to make friends and explore my new environment through all that although it was painful.

Hey guys, didn't even realize I broke 600 days. I'll be 100% honest so feel free to ask me anything.

I started about 4 years ago and went on various streaks. Before then I was insanely addicted and my life revolved around fapping. Eventually I decided enough is enough and went on hard mode. Completely turned my life around and am now where I never expected to be.

Hi guys, haven't posted in a while but I thought this recent revelation requires a post. All throughout my life I've always felt down all the time. I'd walk through high school without a smile and people would always ask me what's wrong? what's wrong man? I just don't feel good today I said. I was fine but I knew deep down something was wrong. I could never enjoy something. When my friends invited me out I would rebound because I didn't know how to have fun. I said I had fun but really I didn't. Most social gatherings were a pain because I didn't have fun. I wished I could be like the other people. They were getting along fine. They would smile and laugh. They would do crazy things together.

"But when men lie together, and knowledge and virtue are passed between them that is pure and excellent. When men compete and bring out the best in each other that is the love that can build a city-state and lift us from our frog pond."

-Aristotle quote from the movie Alexander

What is good fapstronauts? I saw the other post out there and I have been down that road. I am not taking away from the other person but instead I am adding my own input with my post. Hating your demons like they're not part of you is a very easy crutch. The problem is if you do this crutch then it will take time to take that crutch away later, which is counter productive. I went through that phase. I hated that part of me and pretended it wasn't. In fact many of those urges/thoughts have been implanted in your brain by nasty images/acts. But they are still a part of you. Please believe me when I tell you that you must accept these things as a part of you. This is the most direct way to free

Give me all your dirtiest urges,

Give me your deepest fears,

Give me your emotions and tears,

Give me your challenges and I will conquer all because I have no fear.

This is how I feel right now. After my last post about removing urges permanently it really clicked for me: why don't I just FACE everything. Even at these advanced days (and after many years of streaks) I am still a human being who has his dips. The last three days I've been feeling extreme loneliness. I get anxiety at the gym when I'm around hot girls. And today I decided why am I running from these feelings? I am going to FACE them. So go ahead brain and feel whatever you want. In fact I want you to feel it so I ca

What's good fapstronauts? Understand that this is a system that you have to perfect. It's not something that happens over night.

LevelUpMaster's FACE IT Method

When you start having an urge try this. DO NOT fight the urge. Do not resist it. Do not take your mind off it. Accept the urge. Invite it. FACE IT. Don't be afraid. Tell yourself:

"You can think of whatever you want. Anything you want, but you can't act on it."

Let your brain do what it wants. Just don't act on it. Face it and don't be afraid because that is you. And you can't run from yourself. Take back control.

What the crap is up fapstronauts? I've been struggling with this simple concept for so long and I thought I would share my experience because I see so many of you making this same mistake.

Firstly, I am not talking about healthy criticism. Healthy criticism and analysis is sometimes required to see that something can be fixed. Like realizing that you need to start NoFap.

What I'm talking about is the constant putting yourself down for a perceived failure. I think you all know what I'm talking about. Whenever we have a failure such as PMO, for example, or for me when talking to a girl, we have this idea that if it doesn't work out exactly how we wanted then we failed. We cringe, we get ups

What the crap is up fapstronauts! I wanted to make this post for any of you who don't see any "results" from NoFap. For those that dismiss it after trying and relapsing after a short amount of time. I am just over a year in now. I am just now starting to see real, strong, and permanent "results." Basically, for the last year it's been nothing but pain and torture. edited out edging sentence Little things like my bed became triggers. I was this close to going but I never gave in. I can honestly say it's been worth it. Some benefits I am only now experiencing include become more extroverted, enjoying life, feeling confident, and many others. One crazy thing is that my mind works 100 times be
