After 53 days without O I released it in a wet dream

Hey bro..I think wet dreams are out of your control, it's your body's way of releasing sexual tension, and it occurs in subconscious mind..not something that we can control that easily at least in the short term..so I wouldn't worry about it too much

 

Yeah, events that are outside of your control defeat the purpose of this whole NoFap thing. And it's not like we're in it for the X-Box Achievement or anything.

 

Agree with everyone, a wet dream doesn't count, don't be guilty about it

On a side note, how can I get multiple counters?

 

Well, i had something similar yesterday, although i have different kind of rules with myself, since for me the biggest problem is P. In general, i also don't M. , but whenever my body needs (which is probably once or twice a month) to release it, i just do it - no fantasizing, no edging for hours - it lasts no more than 2 seconds The thing is that yesterday i had some dream about P. scene which left my balls in really, really painful mode. And that tension and sort of pain, kept going for the whole day - i felt my balls and perineum really tensed up, the whole scenario from the morning was long gone from my thoughts, there were no urges to watch P. or fantasize about things related to P. but the tension was still there and it was quite uncomfortable, there was even some small amount of semen in my urine! So, even though that i didn't want to M. i still decided that my body needs it, so the whole thing lasted for something like 5 seconds - no fantasizing, no P. related stuff. After i did it, the awful tension down there was gone - at first, i was confused because i was wondering whether to treat this as a relapse or not, but after all decided it's not really relapse, since my body had the physical need and since i haven't watched or fantasized about P. Yes, the main reason was the fucking dream in the morning, but this was something for which i didn't have any "fault". So, yes, when something (which is out of your control) happens in that way, it shouldn't be counted as a relapse

 

Yes, you shouldn't reset it, because those dreams are basically an "echo" of those years of PMO abuse which you have put your brain through.. The same goes with thoughts, actually, because there are many of those moments when some random thought about a fantasy related to P. or just some P. thoughts pop up in your mind without actually provoking them - they just appear, and those moments are the hardest because your brain have the tendency to "strike" you when you least expect it sometimes and can be pretty tricky as you said. One of the main things about rebooting is not only getting your brain functions back to normal, but also a lesson on self control. You shouldn't feel bad for something which you can't control - like your dreams, for instance. Also, i believe that those dreams are not as harmful as watching actual P. unless you start fantasizing about the dream when you wake up.. The case i had yesterday was pretty tricky too - as i said the P. scene which i had in my dream was pretty intense and when i woke up i had an erection (naturally) and in the beginning i freaked a little bit because felt the same way as you, but after that i was like "Oh, come on, really ? Some stupid, ridiculous dream? I don't need that shit!"

Keep it up, bro, you have quite nice streak there since your last PMO )

 

Its your choice but I wouldn't reset the hard-mode counter because it was a wet dream.
And I would definitely not feel bad about myself and beat myself up because of a wet dream.
I would go hard mode even tho you might have 3 wet dreams in 1 night because thats just your body. Its not you.
They are natural and the do happen in a natural circumstance.
