47 Days and dreaming about P

    I've made it 47 days already with only 1 nocturnal emission on day 25, but absolutely no PMO. The last couple nights I have had some very vivid dreams about porn and have caught myself every time before having an O, which was very close. I found myself resisting porn in the dreams but it really tempted me and continued my flatline, which I feel I've been in since day 25. There is a ton of sexual tension building up that is dying to come out. I've made up my mind that I will not relapse for any reason at all though.

    Is anyone else experiencing these vivid dreams of porn? I noticed that they were usually after watching a movie the day before with sexual content in them.

    I haven't dreamt of anything related to sex, as far as I can tell. Though, I've had nightmares, sleep paralysis (I get those from time to time, even before no PMO) and panic attacks. I personally would rather have nocturnal emissions, since they're also something that happen unconsciously and not frightening, but I haven't got those yet for the last 40+ days.

    Yeah, I get that feeling too - the tension building up like crazy.

    There are a few times that fantasies flow into my mind when I'm awake or trying to sleep, but I try not to engage with them and they go away eventually. I do get up tired generally, but that could be due to my job also.

    I reckon I would get even more tired if I try to force myself to wake up from arousing dreams (in order to stop them) - this has happened to me when I get nightmares. I struggle to get up and I feel like I've run a marathon, heh.

    You might have a point about watching a movie that have sexual content - and it affecting your dreams. You could try a week without watching such movies and see how you go. So far, I've avoided anything that even suggest it. I try to not even look at women on the street, I run pass them to get to where I need to go, haha.

    I don't have vivid sex dreams often, but when I do, they are always alarmingly intense. They sometimes happen if I've been thinking about sex before bed, but sometimes they happen even if I didn't think about sex all day. It's a bit frustrating.

    The dreams come and go.
    Whenever I have one I just laugh at how sneaky addiction is to try to get me to relapse when I'm unconscious and dreaming. It's not gonna work though!
    As soon I awake it's back to business. No mind space for PMO.

    It's day number 68 for me. I had my second wet dream last night since starting NoFap. I really don't feel drained this morning, although I had a very restless night of sleep. I'm just low on sleep tired. As of the last few days, I reached a new high point with social confidence. The social anxiety is nearly gone, although my withdrawal symptoms seem to put me into mini flatline cycles. I can feel a slow but noticeable progress which just gives me even more motivation to keep going and abstain from PMO.
