Please, guys. Remind me what PMO does to the brain and why I should not relapse These urges are getting stronger every second.
Go to emergency.nofap.com and download the emergency button for your computer. That is one thing you can do to curb the urges. I had an almost overwhelming urge to pmo last night and then again this morning. I did nothing but observe it and then eventually I was able to let them go. Try not to relapse. I had strong urges but I didn't act on them. I knew better and so do you.
Remember why you started, the pain you felt ... if you don't force yourself to resist this temptation, you'll be back exactly where you started and having to go through all of this again. Regular porn use has been linked to brain shrinkage, poor relationships, inability to perform sexually, low mood disorder and more. Stay strong and send me a message if you need some support. Max.
I almost just relapsed myself, and I'm only 24 hours in. Every time we resist temptation we become stronger and better. Glad you overcame your temptation!
Lets say you are on a streak , even if its 3 day streak - you are clean for 3 days . Know what happens when you relapse ? You will feel shame , guilt , anger , disappointment . Why ? For what ? 5 min of pleasure vs 72 hours of being clean and staying strong and pushing forward to our goal of being clean , focused , clear , strong , discplined and happy man .
Glad you did not give in! Be proud of yourself for fighting the temptation and keep in mind that you have to do this many more times in the future. Prepare in advance for these kinds of situations, what to do and what not to do. Keep fighting!
