    18 days completed. Although I started on the 29th of October, and set my budge accordingly, my signature stubbornly is 2 days behind. I feel a bit embarrased, someone may think that I am cheating on the number of days. Anyway, that is the truth and nothing but the truth, fellow warriors!

    Day 22/30

    I need to share I've been through a tough point in my recovery. 2 days ago, my testosterone/sex drive SPIKED- Today is Monday; it began on Saturday. On Saturday, My family was away from home that day and in the morning, I kept myself busy (Cause you don't take chances when home alone). In the afternoon, it started, and all I could do is rest it out- I literally felt weakened/exhausted by the surge of hormones. When They got back, I reached for support.
    Sunday was fine- I kept busy.

    Today felt like a tug-of-war match inside my head. I wrote an exam this morning, and for about 20-30 minutes I felt the surge of hormones again, and it literally made my head's nerves feel like they were on fire. When I got home, I was ready to relapse, but found encouragement on NoFap, did my exercise and cold shower, and that helped me feel better and keep control up to now.

    I have NEVER reached this far, and until this attempt, the furthest I got without P,M, or O was 2 weeks. I think it was the camaraderie and positivity of NoFap that got me to where I am now. I will keep doing my best, and want to give a special thanks to everyone for helping me reach this point.

    I REALLY NEED to ask, has anyone else been through a similar experience, and if so, what should I do when it happens again?

    Today, I've MO'ed. I feel dissappointed that I have been set back from my ultimate goal, but not ashamed. It was as a result of really high testosterone levels. In the last 22 days, I really put my blood, sweat and tears and it paid off. I had never reached that far before. I hope to do the same again. I feel I have grown in many ways, and have developed more self-discipline. I am worried though, because whenever something like this has happened, it is the calm before the storm. I hope to stay strong in the coming days, that I don't PMO. (I don't have urges to watch porn, but past experience tells me to stay aware) I have reset my day counter, and hope to get even further. You can find me on the 3-Day challenge, and I will be working my way up from there again!
    I wish all the best for everyone else. I have shown myself if you can put your mind to it, it can be done. And so can all of you.

    For those interested, This is what I did to get to Day 22:
    -Cold Shower EVERY day
    -Get into a proper exercise routine, understand your body type and metabolism, and diet properly
    (Money has been tight, so not the optimal diet, but I do my best)
    -Log in to NoFap every day and post your day in whatever challenge(s) you are partaking in
    -Someone here shared something called "The 3 Second Rule"; basically, if you see an attractive girl/guy (however you swing), look, admire, move on. As I have been socializing more and getting out more, it has been really helpful.
    -Most urges have been small in the last 22 days, and what helped was to ignore it and quickly find a distraction.
    -KEEP YOURSELF BUSY. Learn a new skill, Keep your mind stimulated.
    -Instead of trying to drown out your anxiety/depression/pain, try and work through it. Do things that can make it better, make small steps to work towards your dreams. One day at a time.
    -MAKE SURE YOU SPEAK UP. Spread the message, this is not just for porn addiction. If you don't speak about your problems, you can't get help for it.

    Best of luck for everyone here!
