    Hi guys, this is my first time posting on here. After qutting my job I was introduced to nofap by a friend who at the time was on day 13 and claimed that he felt amazing ( he actually did seem more intimidating and happier than usual) so i decided to give it a try. First couple days i didnt see any changes at all up until day 5 to day 11 where i was getting strange energy and adrenaline rushes 3-5 times a day especially when going out with friends and i noticed that my eyes look much sharper and they had a really nice glowish look. long story short im on day 21 and since day 11 I have hit some sort of slump, i feel exactly how i felt before starting NoFap - same anxious always tired "antisocial to an extent" bastard. It's kinda weird because today i was out the entire day and noticed some pleasant looks from girls and they didnt look away when i caught them making eye contact which i actually enjoy but this time it seemed a bit out of place and weird for me idk why. I forgot to mention that i have been edging for the past 5 days, and Im almost certain that it's slowing down my progress!

    Welcome to NoFap where you are amongst friends who are here to encourage you and sometimes challenge you but not judge you.

    The enemy is here to steal, kill and destroy. What are your current strategies for combating the enemy called PMO?

    Welcome and congratulations on your streak brother! The best advise I can give you right now is to stop edging immediately, edging is worse than a relapse in my opinion and is definitely harming your progress. Stay strong and good luck brother! We can do this.

    I guess I'd have to echo this sentiment -- been having problems with edging lately myself and finding that it's very difficult to recover from. (I.e. my brain is as porn-addled as if I still had a twice-a-week habit.) Sometimes I think I might do better if I just went through with the "O" and had another go at the 90-day reboot being much more strict about not sneaking a look at porn. Still, I "survived" the edging episodes, and even though being totally honest would count looking at porn as a relapse, I'm going to plow ahead.

    Hey @garvey ,

    I've never "edged". Before NoFap, it never occurred to me to edge. Once I joined NoFap and started on my 120 day hard reboot, I learned about edging. But, for me, it's not possible be "edge" without masturbating.

    Since my goal was no pmo, edging would have been "m" and that would have been a relapse.

    Everyone defines their own program. That was just my ESH (experience, strength and hope).
