    Hi fellow fapstronautzies xD, i'm going strong at 38 days.

    I almost relapsed just now as i was deleting my stash/collection in my USB Drive, I had them deleted yesterday to the Recycle Bin. Then just a few moments ago i was gonna delete it away, but then, the feeling of relapse was overwhelming me. The surge of guilt and hotheadedness (i don't know how to describe it, the feeling's like when you get guilt tripped).

    I managed to delete them away before i act towards that feeling of overwhelmingness and relapsed, and in my mind when going through the titles of the files in the recycle bin, the videos were sorta playing(somehow the memories were there, maybe a sign of brain fog removed or dopamine caused memory stain) but i'm like 'no shut it out.' Then i managed to delete em.

    Does this actually consider as a relapse ? I feel like shit now LOL even though i did not like think of it more than 10 seconds or actually PMO.

    No not at all , we are surrounded by so many distracted things which can come at anytime but important is that we don't react to those urge's if we do so then it is relapse

    Well thanks for the replies guise, I almost relapsed for a second time today.

    While I was at instagram stories, a guy posted reposted pics of a hot girl, wearing quite revealing. Apparently my naughty hands clicked on it, and my eyes looked at dah pixels that will corrupt my brain. Apparently I didn't stop, i looked at the pictures for around like 30 seconds. Then I went on to the likes and see who liked the picture. One lead to a page which revealed more upper body. Another one lead to a page which revealed more lower body. Was there on both pages for a sum of around 1 minute.

    Well lucky for me, i held on to why i started off, and went to search for NoFap Instagram relapse. Apparently there were victims like these too. That was my main trigger before i started abstaining.

    Not sure if this is considered as a relapse so what do you guys think ? Do i reset counter ? I didn't touch myself nor went to P sites.

    Some consider this as a relapse and say to go back to monk mode. Some said that if you can go to your initial triggers and have the willpower to continue abstaining, your good. I don't know bout this man.
