    Did I relapse on 261 days? I watched porn because of urge in the morning and as I’m aroused I rubbed my penis twice and felt the orgasmic sensation but quickly leaved it there and go on. In the night again after eating a dinner, I watched a porn and I’m aroused again rubbed my penis once perhaps I’m aroused... I felt the orgasmic sensation again then my penis just go pumping without secreting anything then I leaved it there for 4 mins and saw the pre cum then I go on sleep. The morning I woke up I felt something wet on my penis... shit here we go again I don’t know if its wetdream or it released my sperm the night it hasn’t? Relapse or Retrack?

    Its up to you if you relapsed or not. Id say you were halfway there but didnt do a full PMO. You still brought yourself in the dangerzone of downward spiraling unnecessarily. Better see this as a warning sign to stay alert not to relapse.

    To me, a relapse is when you intentionally orgasm from masturbating. However, because you stopped yourself from having an orgasm, I think that you didn't relapse. Don't feel guilty about it, bro. We all make mistakes.
     
  4. I think you were edging. I would call it a relapse. Don’t kid yourself. All addicts do this, including myself
     
  5. I would say it’s a relapse, so you need to reset your counter. That’s IMO, it’s up to you of course
     
  6. Edging reinforces those pathways, even though you haven’t ejaculated. The fact you were stroking your penis and sitting there with a full on hard on is a relapse in my books but if you want to go easy on yourself then yes keep doing what you’re doing.

    Dont count in streaks. Rather win that single day over and over again.
     
  8. You can’t have a reset without a relapse. They go hand in hand. You reset your counter immediately after your relapse.

    Relapse: You define your own relapse - whether that be viewing porn, masturbating, orgasm or any combination of the three (PMO).

    Reset: Occurs immediately after relapse. Resetting your counter. Refers to starting from day 1

    You could say “I relapsed” or “I reset”. They go hand in hand so people will know what you’re talking about
     
  9. Yea thanks for regurgitating my words from another post. My explanation is much simpler for the man.
     
  10. Now he’s selective reading haha :emoji_joy:
     
  11. Nofap is about not watching porn, (and for those who chose to, no masturbation and no orgasm) With "I watched porn" equals a relapse.
    Same with staying sober. "I drinked alcohol" is a relapse. Same with avoiding tobacco "I smoked" is a relapse. Don't worry Its still progress, it will get easier and easier for you. But its a relapse.
