Thank you!

I'm so glad to hear your kind words. Keep walking the good path, brother!

Glad you find my work helpful. I appreciate you following and supporting.

Yes. Drugs don't "add" anything to the brain, they just activate / hijack the dopamine system. So does porn addiction. In fact, ALL addictions do this, drugs, porn, you name it. People have the wrong idea about this, they think it is the drug inside the brain that feels good, but in reality the drug has just made you release a very high amount of dopamine (and serotonin with some drugs).

It hits the same opioid receptors as drugs.

@@therichbuddha3277 its a drug, and like most drugs you feel amazing a little while but then comes the misery

@@therichbuddha3277and it’s free and easily accessible

Awesome! Massive congratulations, brother!

Amen 🙌. He's the reason I was able to stop in the first place once I surrendered my life to him. He ain't taking away these withdrawals tho 😂. We reap what we sow and these are the consequences but also a lesson to make sure we never wanna go back to it and for sure working 💪🏽

Oh! I really appreciate that! Happy to have you as a subscriber!

Thank you for watching and supporting. It means a lot to me.

Happy to help!

I was 36 when I found out about porn addiction and realized my situation, and then after that I still kept relapsing for many years. I turned it around, though, and now at 47 life is great. Try to focus on the time in front of you instead, you can still have 70 wonderful years in front of you. Nothing get's better from ruminating about the past.

Thank you so much! I cant describe how much i appreciate your work and your comments too. i have a therapist i work with a bit, i have tried to tell how large a part pmo/nofap has/has had on me, she cannot really understand it or advice on it. You are as much a therapist as any of the "pros" i have worked with. I hope to be more like you in the future! @@ScandinavianBob

Keep walking the path, my brother. There are a lot of ups and downs, but it is worth it. Things can improve!

i will! and thanks again@@ScandinavianBob

You can do it longer now

Don't count days

Whole point is to reverse porn damage to the brain, not to count how many days you didn’t bust 😂

You can find links on how to get powerful help from me under every single video I post.

Recognize your brain trying to trick you. Journal about all the "lies" your brain can come up with in order to make you act out.

There are so many ways you can structure a dopamine fast. Only working, when working, is a good thing though, 100% yes.

9-me- bc what is this?

YT keeps deleting my response for some reason.

Just keep going, but also remember to work on everything else as well. Practice social skills, positive mental attitude and general health, not just NoFap...

do you get morning wood? very important

That would be too much. If something is good it doesn't always mean a lot of it is better.

@@ScandinavianBob true. Would two be overkill per day? Taking one in the morning during wake-up routine and one before bed to get cleaned after a hard day of work and exercise?

@@masterchiefofhalo4525 Two is still good. I sometimes take two myself. But I don't think we get any additional benefits of going over 2.

It's the opposite of an addiction. But I know what you mean :)

Stay strong, brother...things will turn around!

Trust me the aura and energy you feel when you retain is worth much more than a few seconds of pleasure

Nothing to worry about.

Haha, I like that, that's a good one 😄

It does not matter...if there is a way out of addiction: Go THAT way!

@@noemasteich can you let me know approx time

@@user-on4jb5xk7i no because it depends on how bad you used porn and some other factors...but dont try to calculate it, just leave pmo behind you

@@user-on4jb5xk7i no because its individual. But I tell you just leave porn behind you and stick to it

@@noemasteich does nofap leads to more and more sexual pleasure ..?

:) You are right, it definitely "don't goes back"

It's an interesting question, but it's impossible to know exactly...but if I had to guess, based on my own experiences and what I've seen, it's definitely not 60 days and probably not even 40 or even 30 days. Also depends on what kind of brain change, or issue, we are talking about (remember, there are several brain changes going on at once in porn addiction, not just one). PIED, conditioning, or strictly just desensitization etc. etc. It's just an impossible question to answer for several reasons. Probably under 30 days, though, especially in terms of desensitization....more like 9-15 days or something like that (also could be highly individual). Again, it's pretty silly trying to throw out numbers here when there are just too many factors involved...

@@ScandinavianBob thank you for comment.. I thought It would be even worse.. my condition is severe pied, because I feel no progress at all.. I feel 0% response in my body even though I started no P 5 months ago (if we ignore this one relapse).. also I have desensitized dopamine system.. the relapse happened one month ago when I had 4 months without P.. so It's still under 30 days even in my condition?

With PIED it's a bit more important to stay away from relapses than with desensitization alone, I would not really say 9-15 days in terms of PIED. Probably a bit more there, but again, it depends on the person. As you know, some people can heal PIED in just two months while others take WAY longer, so I'm not going to give you any number there, because we just don't know. Just keep staying away from porn and try to interact a lot with real life people to help the rewiring process. Try to not worry about that relapse, you had 4 months clean, you don't just wipe out all that time. You've probably already regained what you've lost....keep going!

​@@ScandinavianBob thank you for encouragement, I was worrying that It was not fully P, It was that I checked an escort website, it was my first time doing this so I was extremely excited.. It was pictures.. is It even more devastating than P because of my excitement?

​@@Giorgi755any girls on your phone are slowing process thats for sure. I know because I have pied too. But porn is worst of all. The one thing that would help the fastest is sleeping with girl regularly, but while pied you will not have confidence to do that and escort on day when you had morning wood would help a lot too. When you didn't you will waste time since you dont function properly. Long fight bro.

I do that with pre workout and calisthenics. I feel good a little after than like few hrs later .. mood drops heavy. I'm wondering if I should cut out the pre workout( which is high in caffeine) and wonder if I'm experience a crash on top of withdrawals 🤔
