    Hey!

    The topic says it honestly I fapped once because I was so pissed off because of something that happened but no chaser effect happened and today I also had a date so we started kissing and a lot of touching but she told me that she wasn't a hookup so we didn't have sex today but may do prolly in a week.

    But I feel like there is no chaser effect but I feel distracted just like back when I was PMO... Is the distraction and not being able to focus related to nofap or is it related to the incident that happened to me and causing negative thoughts or what is it exactly?
    And should I reset the timer ?

    I mean, I hate to say it, but I think you might need to reset it too. Fapping to cope with anger isnt how you should deal with the anger no matter how bad it was. And I understand that we all mess up because I've done this as well, but we also have to be honest with ourselves in our mistakes. So really, the decision to reset your streak is up to you completely, but you need to think through why you fapped in the first place. Really, we shouldn't be fapping at all, but the decision is up to you.

    Reset or not depends on you. Time is an abstract thing to be honest, a few days nofap can be the same as a hundred days nofap, depends on your attitude

    Guys thank you very much for your inputs!

    I decided not to reset my timer cause since then i stopped it and I went back to the flow of excercising and all the good things and promised myself that if I wouldn't go back to it within 10 days, That I would just keep the timer going.

    I just learned from that and didn't do it anymore!

    Good Luck to all of us!

    I was on an over 100day streak and I fapped and convinced myself that I wouldn't reset. It hurts letting go of a streak, I know that. But if you've truly failed on your goal its better to accept it and reset than to be in denial and continuing with a false streak. It's up to you though obviously, thought I'd share my own experiences.

    I'll be honest with you I've been craving for fapping again and gone so close to getting back by calling a call girl to get a massage.
    I'm not functioning as good as I did couple of days back. I mean I haven't masturbated since then but the cravings are so strong and all that makes me happy and going in this moment is either thinking about the fetishes or having kinky activities with women.

    I dunno how they all came back by fapping once :/

    I might reset it from when I did the fap actually I'll decide by tonight as right now I'm at a library and gotta focus on my studies.

    Think of it this way. Even if you leave a light bulb unused for a while, the day you turn it on it'll be as warm afterwards as though someone's been turning it on daily. That's how this addiction is. Sometimes things are a lil more gradual and you can Fap once and get away with it, other times it's just a question of is it on or is it off and when it's switched on once its as though it was never off before.
