Experiencing the benefits of NoFap is the reason why we are here, and I have read thousands of recovery stories. So why not throw together a top 10 list of benefits to give everyone out there a little motivation. Keep in mind that these benefits appear at different stages for everyone, and some may have certain benefits while others experiance different benefits.
Sex becomes amazing again for some, while for others, sex becomes better than porn for the first time. If you are familiar with the feeling of your chest pounding, heart racing, mouth watering, and your entire body heating up because you started typing in your favorite porn site. Then picture that happening just because a girl took off her shirt in front of you. That is how sex should be not porn.
Increased energy and testosterone levels. After just one week without fapping, your brain raises testosterone levels by up to 45%.
Real libido. Not bullshit cravings for porn/sex/intimacy. This basically means that when you are with a girl, you will want to connect with her and have sex on another level, instead of just wanting to have a meaningless one-night stand with no regard for the girl afterwards.
Self-Confidence, or no longer second guessing everything you say or do around other people. This includes being able to defend your opinions in an argument, off-handed remarks people could make will not bother you as much, and a feeling like you can be part of something and provide equal value to it, such as a college group assignment or a career where you work with a team.
Enjoyment in the little things in life returns. People often experiance a renewed interest in certain hobbies, music, food, ETC... Also, people often find themselves slowing down to enjoy things in life such as sunsets or just taking a dog for a walk.
Self-Control (I like to see this one as a indirect benefit of NoFap). Going on a successful streak has a lot of major challenges along the way like intense cravings, flatline, or a void where porn used to be. By overcoming this, we are building discipline and actually strengthening the prefrontal cortex in our brains. This part of our brain is responsible for saying no when a huge urge hits, or reminding you of the consequences of certain actions.
NOT seeing beautiful women and immediately thinking about having sex with them. When most of the beautiful women you see on a daily basis are on a screen having sex, then all you see in women is the potential for sex before actually getting to know them. This is called sexual conditioning. When you approach a woman with this mindset, then you have basically just handicapped yourself and any good chance of dating said woman.
Forget about porn-induced ED, Delayed Ejaculation, and Premature Ejaculation. Unless this has happened to you, imagine finally getting to have sex with an amazing girl, maybe even for the first time. And you can't even get it up. The aftermath of this is emotionally shattering for both people involved. The girl may think that she is unattractive or not good enough, and the guy feels worthless as a man for not being able to do the most basic part of human nature. After a successful reboot though, these problems fade away, and pleasing a woman will become a bit easier.
Mental Clarity or reduced brain fog. Most people report a massive increase in memory and cognitive function. For example, being able to make a story flow, the ability to stay focused during a conversation or when you are working at your job/college, and making better choices based on consequences.
From glass half empty to glass half full (my favorite). After a successful reboot, don't be surprised if you find yourself being more optimistic about everything.
