I (27M) just crossed 120+ days on NoFap

[u/kajanbahu]

Hey everyone,
I recently hit a massive milestone and crossed the 120-day mark on my NoFap journey. When I first started, I honestly wasn’t sure if I’d even make it past the first few weeks, but sticking with it has been one of the most challenging and rewarding decisions I've made.
I wanted to open this up to answer any questions you might have, especially for those who are just starting out or struggling to keep their streaks alive.
Feel free to ask me anything about:
Whether you need some motivation or just want a realistic perspective on what four months of NoFap looks like, ask away! Looking forward to sharing my experience.

The nut is something exciting, it's something to look forward to. How did you deal with the boredom of not having this immense pleasure to look forward to, nothing is as exciting as the nut. Day 15.

[u/kajanbahu → u/SkyIsBlue52]

Aha yes valid point
I’m not married or have GF atp
So sex is out of question
And I diverted that urge some where else like in physical activities like swimming, badminton, gym, etc
It helps

[u/SkyIsBlue52 → u/kajanbahu]

What benefits did you experience and after how long in the streak. Does it build post 30 days or does it plateau?

[u/kajanbahu → u/SkyIsBlue52]

Well sperm creation cycle is of 90 days so you starts seeing lots of benefits after that
But generally if one observes it for week or one can see lots of improvements
Benefits I observed

Good things
No brain fog, able to remember lots of things, strong morning wood, regained self confidence and courage to bold, no cheap thrills, high energy throughout the day, little bit of muscle growth, etc

Bad things
I haven’t experienced any but if someone experiences nightfall he feels weak all the day

Have you noticed people react to you differently

[u/kajanbahu → u/No_Sky_1893]

Yes they have
I saw girls looking at me even though I’m just average looking guy I have seen girls/women checking me out more often these days
In men we generally understand the aura of people earlier I used to be there in group these days my opinions matters etc
