    I am on day 6 of hard mode and I was doing fine.
    But today I found out I have an interview on Thursday for a job I've wanted for 3 years-
    It's made me so nervous and I can't sleep....my minds racing and can't stop getting urges
    Thing is I wouldn't have gotten the interview if it wasn't for nofap because during my 1st reboot it gave me the energy and positivity to up my game and go for this job....
    I need to stay strong and I will...guess I just needed to write this down to remind myself why I'm doing this!!

    Maybe you can start visualizing all the positives NoFap has done for you! And also the negatives that NoFap has extricated you from.

    Or maybe just take a cold shower!

    Great job, keep pushing. Get comfortable with the discomfort.

    55 days porn free and then I gave in to the weakness on the night of the 56 th day and continued on and off again watching porn until just a few minutes ago. It only takes one moment to destroy everything you worked for. What's done is done though the past is fixed the future is yet to be written. How will my story end? ... Only I can decide that. 55 days was a good treck though. Even through I orgasmed more than 5 less than 10 times I dn't feel the repulsive feelings of extreme regret, weakness, and lack of confidence as I would usually do. This was my longest treck porn and masturbation free.

    55 days is an amazing achievement! Well done
    I managed to fight it last night and focused on how shit I felt last week after relapsing and how much I don't want to feel like that again.. Onto day 6- onwards and upwards- 1 day at a time!!! Need to keep focused and positive! The job interview should help me with both
    Thank guys

    We all have our reasons for fighting this addiction but when the urges kick in and your mind keeps whispering to you to just open google and type some choice words. The whispers becomes shouts and it is at that point that I think most of us forget our reasons of why we Fight. However my advice to you is that in those moments you return to NOFAP which is your SAFE HAVEN and hit that PANIC BUTTON and it will remind. It will Shame you into Standing your ground if necessary better to be Shamed yet still Standing rather than to be Proud and Fallen.
    On the night of the 56th day I did not hit the panic button one pic lead to a vid which lead to more vids which lead to a Binge. Don't let it happen to you, learn from my fall... I stood before you and even though I charged into Glory for 55 and a few hours I made a misstep and joined the fallen. Yet I stand once more at this moment Two Hours PMO free. This is not enough! I want more so I will take what I want.

    FWIW I'm 4 weeks in and the urge are bad for me as well. We all feel it, maybe at different points, but we all feel it.

    Try setting a goal which is only a little more than your last achievement. Like 10 days once you hit 7 days.

    I just hit the panic button there as something came up on Facebook that felt like it lit a fuse in my stomach...
    Anyway
    A video called nuggets came up on youtube and it was brilliant...so simple but will really ring true with all of us on here struggling with this addiction.
    I'm not gonna relapse- I want to harness that fire in my belly and get back that 'on top' feeling back I've missed for so long
    I recommend watching that video anyone who hasn't already
