I'm on streak but this is getting difficult. I keep getting urges that are so tough to handle. I also sometimes fall into this unmotivated mind state. I go on YouTube and see many trigger (you know those stupid public kissing pranks and stuff) and it just makes it worse. I am trying to cut most of my time online. I gonna keep going on though! I want to stop this addiction once and for all.
Most of my relapses started with "innocent" youtube watching. And eventually it leads to.. yes, you know. Found out that the right term for it is p-subbing. Do not recommend continue that habit. Stay strong!
A way that I use to combat those triggers is when I see something that could potentially trigger the urge to watch porn I just turn off my computer and go outside and take in the fresh air. I would then think or do something else completely different that doesn't involve using the computer or my phone. If that doesn't work for me then I always find that working out always take my mind off those urges. Hopefully I had helped you and if yo have any questions just let me know.
Ahh, that's what I thought -- what you mention sound like symptoms of retrying NoFap after quite a few previous attempts. Basically, you sound like the polar opposite of flatline (i.e., being horny/restless all the time), and this can happen when, over the course of prior attempts at NoFap, one's libido (or the need to be sexually satisfied) becomes no longer a very core (or as closely integrated a) part of one's psychology/behavior/attitude/"general sense of well-being"/etc. Hence, having a "high libido" does not actually feel like "hooray, superpowers!", but rather more like "this crappy/annoying itch/urges I just keep getting!" (i.e., as you proceed to become more "independent" of your state of sexual satisfaction anyway, as in common in nofap). *Edit: hid content under spoiler tab Spoiler: Continuing under spoiler tab Not to sound heretical against NoFap, but my advice here would be to focus on "re-integrating" the libido back into your deep/core psychology. You would generally do this by maintaining -- what I would call -- a "comfortable" level of libido (or perhaps, another way to describe it would be, "comfortably high", but without feeling like "horny/restless" all the time -- something that you should definitely feel "comfortable" with having in utilizing for whatever purposes besides fap/pmo). Likewise, the longer you stay at the "comfortable" level, the more easily libido your will eventually get re-integrated back into your core psychology. Note: the "heretical" part against NoFap is that you may have to fap/pmo once or twice to get to that level; the "difficult" part is that it can likely take once or twice (just to "take the edge off", but do nothing more) in a pretty long while. Or, put in more detail, you have to be honest with yourself about where your "current" level of libido is at, and how "comfortable" vs "horny/restless" with it you really are. Basically, fap/pmo sufficiently infrequently to keep a high libido but sufficiently frequently to not become too sexually dissatisfied and then too psychologically "independent" of where your libido is at (this is the difference between that high libido promoting "superpowers" versus it feeling like "uggh crap, that damn other random/sporadic annoying urge/itch every now and then"). Edit: Of course, needless to say, but just in case , doing too much fap/pmo leads to less libido and little to no benefits regardless of how "integrated" vs "segregated" your libido is anyway!
