    Last night before sleep idk what happened to my self, i was curious, so i opened up my browser and went to P site, watched few videos for several minutes, little urge came along, and then somehow i have a thought that "this is wrong and not good" so i closed it all immediatly and then back trying to sleep.

    I feel a little regret and promised to my self wont to that again, is this a relapse in your perspective? Cause i dont think its a relapse or a reset and will continue my streaks (im on day 14 no PMO now)
    Thanks for reading and sorry for my bad english

    Everyone has to set their own boundaries for what a relapse actually amounts to. I wouldnt count that as one myself but its about as close as you are gonna come to full relapse.

    The harder you tempt yourself like that, the harder it will be to fight off the urges. Just remember relapses normally lead to long binges before summoning the strength to start a new streak.

    Yes i understand that very well, everytime i relapsed PMO binge for days always occured too because of my bad feeling and regrets before i can get up from it and start a new streak.

    Thats why i called its not a relapse because, yes i feel a little regret, but not as much as i felt after full relapse.

    I'm gonna strengthen my willpower from now on then and erase this bad habbit from my life forever.

    Thanks for giving ur thoughts

    Well interrupted, maybe make a plan now in case that happens again, how will you deal with it?

    You nearly jumped off the cliff, but at the very end, you overcame your own demons. Some consider themselves to have failed the moment they click on those (truly)evil websites. Others don't. Many people consider M as the ultimate failure. You didn't do it, but you must be more careful next time. I usually write a "failure log" to acknowledge this kind of failures. Only by facing our mistakes can we become better people.

    I strongly recommand this reboot manual to you. The man who wrote it has been able to stay clean (in hard monk mode) for at least 9 years.

    I am a colloge student, but now i am on my hometown living with my parents because of Corona, my parents are farmer and here everyday i will go to our fields working there, so basically i will leave the field at 6 pm, and at our house i dont know what to do except playing with my smartphone till sleeptime (midnight), and maybe u already understand what playing with smartphone alll night can lead to, so i will learn from yesterday mistakes and make sure all i access now is free from all kinds of things that can trigger me to having an urge to watch P.
    I am plainning to just read a lot of things about self-improvement and usefull knowledge, also watching specific youtube videos with self improvement thing like TedTalk. I will try the hardest to not coming to sites that can trigger the devil.

    (I remember what leads me to P lastnight, and that thing is i read some article about sexual health, and from that the curiosity became bigger.)
    Thanks for asking

    Yes brother, i nearly jump
    Yes i nearly failed again yesterday night, thank God i stoped it right there.

    Thank you for the warning bro, also thank you for your suggestion, i am going to read and learn from the reboot manual, and use it to at the very least, to killing time instead of watching those useless and dangerous P. May we all can free from this addiction and claim new positive life!

  9. He stayed away from "the bad sexual practices"(Porn, M,O) for 9 years. In his post celebrating his 9 years, it is implied that he is still celibate.(unconfirmed)
