u/Weekly-Finding3935

Hi guys been a long time . I have been busy , was busy visiting the hospital and icu since the last week of July.
Due to health issues of a family member.
Was able to do only fruits and dry fasting for a combined of 10-20 days

I am just starting my early 20s so I am still somewhat attached to worldly achievements and yeah I am also not ashamed to say maybe have a partner or so.
My own opinion is that before transcending or leaving this realm ; some worldly achievement is needed. What are your thoughts about this.

I might throw extended fasting too in the mix with the fruits , so the whole month is essentially fruits and dry fasting

I am curious about this because it seems that most of the people in this group are in their 20s and 30s , I read evilzeros earlier post about how he started water fasting and he was like 14-15 at that time and then did started dry fasting.
I myself did water fasting around that age too with maximum days being 14-21 at that age and then later on started dry fasting similarly

I will be taking electrolytes and reffed then try for my long fast again .
I made it to 3 days total almost

Something that I have observed after 2 -3 years on this dry fasting journey is that even after you have completed dry fasting of 2-3 days minimum and extended fasting of 7-9 days and above etc and try to go back to an extended fast after a long time and even with all the situations aligned for you ; the habit of holding back or intentionally shortening the fast or even completing the length of fasting decided, the cycles of reefed where one either indulges or restricts and try to be fully strict essentially going from 1 to 100 seems to happen due to the mind or the Spirit fearing the unknown or just not wanting to deal with the new responsibilities that come along with the new state of being that you have occupied .
The fear of being a new self even if the new self is something that is greater for you due to you having been in the earlier state and environment for so long that it’s comfortable .

I am open to opinions and want to know if everyone else here has experienced this to some degree or the other.

Has anybody travelled on a plane or flight while dry fasting while going above 9 -11 days in a dry fast .

I am starting a dry fast an extended one after a long time . I have been doing 1-2 days every week for now and I feel like I am ready for another extended one but the day I travel while be either day 8 -day 11 of the dry fast depending on the day of travelling
