Hi, I finally created an account to ask a question. I was on Day 6 when I was scrolling through a girls Instagram. I did get an erection and did have dirty thoughts. But I did NOT masturbate, watch porn, or orgasm. So did I relapse??? Either way I learned my lesson to keep off Instagram while on nofap. Thanks
Congratulations on suppressing an urge. No, you did not relapse. A relapse only counts if you watch porn/masturbate/orgasm (if hard mode is your goal). You are going to see more of this in public, parties, bars etc. so do not take it very seriously, when such thoughts come take a deep breath and with an exhale let it go. Stay Strong.
No, it isn't a relapse since it wasn't porn and you didn't masturbate or orgasm. Good for you that you were able to control your urges! However, you may want to avoid this type of activity if it is triggering you to the point of erection. Once I get aroused to that point it becomes very easy to give up and relapse.
Sounds like you have the situation handled. The odds of a reset in the next 2 days is extremely high after a near slip up like that so stay busy and be careful!
