    When I just woke up to use the bathroom doing number 1 and 2. I've noticed that the semen came out of my private part. Is that a relapse or not?

    In my opinion no, since it’s a consequence of your sub-conscious mind, not your conscious mind that is the part you have control over.

    I guess though that one of the major aims of nofap is to train the sub-conscious part of our brains.

    we can control not clicking that mouse button or staring at that girl walking down the street, but not what we are dreaming about.

    I watched porn time and again deliberately for some reason, should I reset my counter? I'm experiencing the benefits now although.

    PMO...... it depends what your aiming to achieve. If part of your aim is to give up porn, then yes, you have relapsed, but don’t give up giving up, start over right now and keep fighting the good fight.

    we are at war with many battles along the way. Some we win and some we loose but stay in the fight.

    I’m a heavy user and have been on many small steaks of sobriety (~3days) for the last year and now I’m serious and going to succeed (day 16 sober, PMO).

    I think one of the secrets to slaying the beast of PMO is to LEARN TO HATE PORN, NOT HATE YOURSELF.
