Does edging set you back in reboot

Edging can have an effect on rebooting because it can cause spikes in neurotransmitters( dopamine, etc). Whether you count it as a relapse is up to you. If you are trying to get clean of porn(visual stimulation) then I would say looking at half naked girls on Instagram to get horny would count as a relapse.

 

I think compared to a completely hands free streak with only touching to urinate, shaking the piss out, cleaning it and to put it out a uncomfortable position your better off not edging because in my personal experience you have richer and more energy because edging burns you out still even if your not ejaculating and its risky you will want to release eventually you will tell yourself maybe that it wont be like that but it always ended up being a release for me ive been through this alot always stubborn i think i can get away with edging but nope it never works and plus my energy feels better in my own experience. And the depression is probably the withdrawal and could be something going on mentally that you do to set yourself up to depression, for me depression is still there but significantly less often but i think its a normal part of me i accept it and do my best with it in dealing with it but i believe it can be possible to completely eliminate it if not in this life then the next.

 

So what your feeling is cold and you want warmth, good healthy lust free warmth. Take note of the good things about you, eat healthy, feel better, exercise light or heavy, feel better, take a shower feeling clean, feels good. It probably wont happen overnight to get over it but you have a many brothers here who wants the best for you your strong for being here really and some people dont find there true love until late late later on like the rock dwayne johnson. Be a friend to yourself thats warmth learn to be your own friend.

 

The clear answer is YES, it affects your reboot, and not in a good way. I had stayed clean for many days (30+ Days) and then one day I decided to edge without masturbating. I was completely hooked with porn and the chaser effect was so strong I couldn’t stop, not until my parents shouted “GET READY, WE ARE GOING OUT SOON” that forces me to break the cycle. If my parents didn’t call me, I would have esculated to MO. The problem however, the images and video clips were implanted into my brain and I can recall them vividly inside my brain. If it was a year ago, I would just fap to clear that off. Since I am no longer doing PMO, I had to deal with those image without jerking them off my shoulder. My point is, the images and video clips would stick inside your brain and your system will need time and effort to clear them off, in turn prolonging your reboot.

 

Yeah, obviously it sets you back, edging is watching porn and masturbating, it totally sets you back.

 

Merry Christmas... stay vigilant
