Accountability for All

no, i wouldn't count it as a relapse. I define a relapse when you really mastrubate.
i am also on 27 day, also had uges in the evening )
Let's motivate ourselves! Keep it up!

 

I think i'm on the flatline. I really started to think, that something is wrong with me. Thanks @hiddentaurus for your right thoughts, really helped me!

P.S. Also this ARTICLE HELPED

 

day 27 +

 

man... i relapsed holy shit all the advices that ive give to all people and ive still relapsed im feeling horrible

 

For sure, bro. Rmr everyone's flat-line length is different. So only use any lengths of time you come across in your research as a rough guide. Yours may not last anywhere near as long, or could be double. Keep that in mind.

 

Your badge says no Porn and Masturbation. So going by that I don't think you can count that as a relapse.

I read a pretty good definition of a relapse yesterday. "When you deliberately engage in behavior which breaks your recovery plan." Think about how that applies to NoFap. You became addicted to a behavior which negatively affected your brain and now you're trying to fix your brain by exercising discipline and gaining more control over your actions. Things like unintended pre-cum, wet dreams, and accidental dopamine spikes shouldn't be considered relapses because you otherwise had the self-control to remain disciplined through your plan. As I said in some earlier post, consider these things minor speed bumps and keep going.

Now I will say this, if the precum happened because you decided to check out a naughty photo or video (or engaged in ANY kind of porn substitute) during your urge, even if you did NOT masturbate, you should definitely reset that timer. Anything you actively do to engage in P if you're trying to stop P is a relapse even if no M is involved. And if you engage in M, even if you're not watching P, that's a relapse as well because broke your rule about no M. Make sense?

 

There is never a reason feel bad for helping others. We're all human brother. You don't need to have won the race to help others here, bro. You just gotta keep running.

It's actually important that you feel disappointed. We all need to feel that way after a relapse. The moment you relapse and feel nothing, it's over! The key is to TRANSMUTE that horrible feeling about yourself into motivation to do better next time and help others along in their journey. Everything I have said to anyone in this thread is stuff that I tell myself as well. We're all human.

This isn't an easy journey to go alone my man. That's why we're all here. No one is better than anyone else. You need us and we need you. So take a moment to reflect on what you did, but let it pass and bounce back stronger, bruh.

 

thanks mahnn!!

 

no, i was not watching porn.
but, i didnt even orgasm. i didnt feel anything when i released. i discovered that i had released about an hour after my urge had gone away.
can exercising cause a release? i dont think so, but, i started to exercise after getting that urge. and after 30-40min of exercising, when i went to take a bath, i discovered that i had released.
sorry, im asking such silly questions, but such a thing has never EVER happened to me..

 

Tbt I couldn't tell you what's causing it. I'm definitely no expert so you could try researching the symptoms and see what comes up. I doubt you're the only person that's happened to on Nofap. If I had to guess, I'd say it's probably the same thing that causes wet dreams. Doesn't seem like anything to worry about biologically nor in relation to your streak. But again...not an expert.

If the frequency and amount of fluid released increases to the point of concern for you, and you're unable to find anything about it online, it might be a good time to ask your doctor what's going on.

 

@strength_09 NP man! Glad to help! Congrats for making it far enough to flatline! Lol
And good stuff posting that article. That'll be a great help to everyone here.

Keep it up, man! You're an inspiration to us all! Never give in!

 

day 28 +

 

DAY 5!!!

 

Stay the course, gents! Never fold!!

 

PLEASE HELP ME,
i am still in my flatline.
i really do not want to give up.
but, i cant also help watching porn substitutes (pics of non-naked women), because i cant have any erections in the flatline, just to get it up, idk why, but it's natural, i checked online.
still, how do i stop this?

 

relapsed.
but, i will get back, stronger and harder.

 

Most important - you shouldn't be self-deprecating. It's Ok, we are all human. Just grab your shit and make tomorrow your first day again, without any pressure! YOU WILL SUCCEED! I believe in you, bro

About erection on flatline: Had the same issue yesterday for the first time in my whole life. Felt really bad. But then did a research figured out, that IT IS OK, bro!!!! Your body just need time to get used to not becoming dopamine from masturbating! AND THE FLATLINE WILL PASS. THAT IS CRUCIAL TO UNDERSTAND, can't really speak from experience, cause it's the longest streak i have so far and for the first time on flatline, but that's what i believe in. Important is that you DO NOT WATCH PORN OR SOME PICKS TO CHECK, WHETHER YOU DICK WORKS. that's kinda ruins the whole point of NoFAP, your brain will be attached to it AGAIN. P.S. YOUR DICK WORKS, trust me bro!
P.P.S. also on my flatline, i feel weird now, because i have no feelings to girls AT ALL. I am kinda stone without FEELINGS! Can someone here relate to it?

SOME ROUTINES TO BE IN GODMODE ON FLATLINE:

1. COLD SHOWERS
2. SOCIALISING (ESPECIALLY JUST TALKING TO BEAUTIFUL GIRLS, even though on my flatline I have no sexual desire to women at all)
3. REALLY MOTIVATIONAL MOVIES (for me: Batman begins, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, documentary of Michael Jordan)
4. POSTING HERE
5. EXERCISING
