Sorry about your setback bro, but good to hear about the financial stress lifting. We do have to watch out for "porn rewards". I've fallen into that trap myself before. One time after completing a particularly challenging project at work, I ended up on a catastrophic PMO binge. I think I had the feeling "Hey I feel good, now I want to feel better!" Good idea, but bad way to do it. I think what we need to do is replace the idea in our mind/body that porn is something enjoyable with a view that it's really long-term poison for most of us. So what I mean is, it's ok to feel happy and want to reward yourself for good accomplishments, but we should reward ourselves with positive influences that actually improve our lives rather than leave us drained and depressed and remorseful. So maybe we can reward ourselves in other ways, like going out for a nice dinner, or buying that new book we really want, or just taking the day off and walking around the park taking pictures and soaking in the atmosphere. Just a thought.
That's perfectly fine but can please explain your disagreement I just read it somewhere so posted it here My opinion is that maybe helpful to some extent for the people doing nofap but I think people would never get interested in sexual intercourse if there was no pleasure at all since we always seek happiness and avoid things gives us hard times it's kind of human instinct So your disagreement perfectly make sense
yeah I thought about it, even more since it is not my first relapse induced by booze but as a student most of my social life is based on parties and when you go to parties it is kinda hard not to drink, plus it IS less fun. So I know that next year I won't have as much time to go out than this year and the past (cause studies gets harder) but I wanna enjoy my college life till then. and btw day 1
10 days done! Close call yesterday, started looking at this racy ad on FB, where you could scroll to the side and see more ladies. Not nude, and no pmo but in the back of my mind I was hoping to find something kind of racy by scrolling through FB. I don’t think it qualifies as a reset, but it’s good to tell on myself sometimes when I’m heading toward a slippery slope. Feel back on track today and lucky I escaped that trap. Cunning baffling and powerful, this addiction is! Good luck everyone
