    I am wondering does peeking at images not necessarily pornography images but more along the lines of instagram models effects your reboot process. From time to time I will get this intense urge to peek at images but I won’t edge or anything. I’ll just look for about 5 minutes at max then exit out. Does this effect me getting any benefits or does it cause no harm whatsoever as long as I don’t look long enough or often?

    Avoid it. If you're addicted it will escalate.

    I think it is a great opportunity for you to gain more self-control. I don't see it interfering with your reboot, but I also don't see anything good coming from that habit.

    This is interesting as Ive experienced the same. However Ive noticed some of the most random things to me are triggers. I instantly do something to take my mind off it. Peeking doesnt do anything physically even anymore and I want that to be in a good way. Dont peek. Your brain is lessening its cravings,at least I found that was my experience.

    If you're doing NoFap just for a challenge maybe, but if you are addicted its extremely foolish.

    I agree. I meant "not peeking at images" is a great opportunity for him to gain more self-control.

    There’s no such thing. I mean a day or two of self control before it eats you alive and you give up.

    That's what I meant. Just don't look at those images. I didn't mean "go, look at those pictures until you feel you're in charge". I meant "don't even go to Instagram". You know, spending time on Instagram is so addictive that it can be uncomfortable to not access it. Thus, avoiding Instagram is an opportunity to gain self-control.
     
  10. I think it affect progress because I can feel the same high doing this. tbh when I start peeking it always makes it so much harder andvalways ends in relapse. My best streaks are ones where I go completely cold turkey.
