I'm an idiot. after 25 days I fell back into masturbating. the only positive side I can find is that if before I needed a footjob / shoejob video, now at least I needed a picture of a girl's ass. at least little by little my tastes are being reset
Infact i don't want to relapse. But, at front of some months ago, that i'm masturbated with women's shoes, or foot/shoejob videos, it's some better that i'm excited for an ass, or not?
After a month, you should be able to m without any fantasy or lust. Anyways, don't binge relapse and you will be good to go! You still have a 25 day streak, it's just not your current streak.
25 days of abstinence is still a pretty good achievement. I personally believe in doing things in moderation. I don't see how relapsing every month could be much of a problem, this would be equivalent of eating a big Mac every month.
25 days is not bad. Hey, at least you are being honest about failing. Like you said, now you know your limits. Remember, part of the reason why we do this is to have control of ourselves. The point is not to stay away from porn; It’s to be a better you by quitting porn. Good luck my friend!
No this is not right. It's good that you are being optimistic but loot at this into this way. You know that porn is not good. And you want to change. So, now a girl's package is enough to turn you on. That would release dopamine. Read NoFap's "your brain on porn" for better understanding. Soon your mind will crave for more Dopamine. And then possibly a girl's naked image would turn you on. And then dopamine would be released again and this time your mind will crave for even more and soon or later you would end up at the footjobs. And i guess you don't want that to happen. So try to analyse how that arousing image came in front of your eyes. Just eliminate all the triggers. There are plenty of threads on eliminating triggers on NoFap forum. Go through them. Never give Up and be greater than your Addiction. Kick that shit out of your life
Now i've wieved some photos, and i was excited. But i don't masturbated, or wiev porn. I had scared of lose my libido.
Hi @AngeZarate10 ! Instagram, and other such sites are frequently just P-subs (check the glossary at the top of this page for the meaning of P-sub). Viewing pics, even if they are "tame" by comparison to what you may have previously indulged in, is not good for your journey of healing. Please consider not looking at such pictures as they'll only lead to troubles. So, looking at pictures got you excited... Good that you didn't M, but as above, these pictures were really just P-Subs. There really is not need to check whether your libido - or you equipment - functions. Our bodies and our minds are wonderful things. When we give them a chance to heal, they will. Progress will not always be as fast, or as complete, as we'd like, but healing can, and does, happen if our bodies and minds are given a chance. There isn't a need to check "progress" by viewing pics or "testing" the plumbing ! Its great that you've stayed away from P in the way you had previously used it. You'll very likely make more, faster, progress, if you also stop using P-subs. One day at a time is how we all succeed.
having a foot fetish is normal, as long as it's real life, now I get excited with my ass too, like many years ago. sure that porn destroys you.
thinking that up until a few months ago I also used women's shoes to masturbate (and if I think there is even worse to get excited I smile), I think I have reached a good goal. consider that in any case I am engaged, and to be honest, I have some light flatline, but I still manage to have sexual intercourse. thinking that sometimes I had to make huge efforts to keep myself tough.
