Considering a sheduled MO after a full reboot

Discussion in 'Rebooting - Porn Addiction Recovery' started by Deleted Account, May 4, 2021.

  1. I plan to leave porn behind forever, but I am considering MO after I fully reboot and if I do not have a partner, in a strictly not for pleasure just to relieve myself and be clean about it sort of way. You usually get a wet dream after 6 weeks, so once and month on a certain date, without fantasying about anyone, just from touch alone.

    The idea sounds good but maybe its not that easy, maybe its just easier to stick to no pmo, as you do not control the release, you cannot mess it up.

    Probably still get chaser from the wet dream

    MOing is doing that same motion that we all know too well is a dangerous habit that sparks pathways. But maybe it will reinvent and rewire them in a good way

    I don't know fore sure, but I do know I have a lot more time to consider

    For me, that is a bad idea. thing is, if you do MO, you will eventually crave for porn because that was your fix. i got addicted to porn years after i got addicted to MO. while i was MOing, i used to find porn so disgusting(like once i saw a video and turned it off within 2 seconds because of how revolting it was) but eventually and slowly I added P to my MO and the stuff i found disgusting became normal. if you do manage to escape(or you are planning to escape) then leave M behind too(only have O when having intercourse with your partner)
     
  3. Maybe, but I would imagine the schedule might get smaller and smaller.

    i think it´s a bad move bro. for a number of reasons:

    1 - control. the link between porn and masturbation is deeply rooted in us, addicts, so if you sparkle one side of the equation, the other will soon appear. you´ll find that your "fixed schedule" will suffer changes for smaller and smaller intervals.

    2 - behaviour. for us, addicts, who masturbated to infinite sources of fantasies, masturbating with physical contact is a totally different experience, a dry and grey one. you´ll be deeply tempted to add some mental fantasy to the procedure. once fantasy kicks in, it´s game over.

    3 - consequences. masturbation heavely drains the body of vitality. it´s not a good behaviour at all.

    4 - pragmatism. any kind of sexual pressure that you´ll feel, will eventually be released through a wet dream. no need to masturbate for that reason.

    5 - counter-intuitive. if you add to your rebooting goal the "masturbation fixed schedule", it will be much harder to do the reboot because masturbation will still be in the horizont.

    in sum, don´t do it and don´t plan it :). If you´re single, keep your seed and transmute it into power and creativity.

    I've done what you plan to do so many times. Slipped into PMO every. single. time.

    I mean in principle the idea sounds good, but it seems risky like riding on the edge. I hear that some people are able to handle it. But it just seems like such a big risk after all the work you do to get clean in the first place

  7. I've been reading some journals of people who tired this and one said the number of days got lower and lower and it got to a point where they did it and few times in a week and they felt fatigue over it so they just went back to no PMO

    So I do that with alcohol, after quitting drinking, bear in mind the schedule is twice a year, after a full year clean.

    You are allowing yourself to come back to compulsiveness getting a schedule after a full reboot, sounds more like an excuse than a realistic, Fapstronaut schedule, that may look like, if anything like twice a year if single, none if having a partner.

    I have this saying, that goes like, twice a year is not big deal, anything more than that is risky for most compulsive behaviours.

  9. A shedule mo once a month on the same day to touch alone, is controlled behaviour, with clear indication if somthing goes wrong that being the though of a woman while MOing which isnt that bad to me, but would make me just switch back to no PMO.

    im completely turned off porn theres no going back for me, i will know in a safe way if ive crossed a line and if so I would just switch bad to no PMO

    This isnt lack of control this is control.

    I think letting it get to a stage of noternal emmsion isnt healthy, its being release for a reason.

    Most proper way would to be to have a pathner.

    Then maybe MO (if you can stick to once a month and on touch alone)

    And noturnal emmsion just isnt right its unhealty (unless we are taking about a person who hasn't fully rebooted then maybe the lack of a consiousness helps rewire the brain during a wet dream)

    What is full reboot again?
    Imho, full reboot is to living a life where we completely abstain from PMO, and ejaculate only when we do love making.
     
  11. Rebooting can be like you say but nofap is not anti masturbation like the name suggests. its just anti porn. Rebooting from porn, resets your mind and body to its state before porn consumtion, which in some cases is not achievable without doing hard mode (no PMO) for your entire reboot.

    Great. Me too.

    Worth trying.

    Why not for pleasure? I don't get that. Masturbation can be sex with someone you love: you! And it's a way to explore your authentic sexual fantasies, if you can rescue them back from memories of porn.

    The only way to know is to try. If you find that MO makes abstaining from porn much harder (that's what I found) then at least you will have learnt something about yourself and you can stop masturbating.

    What day are you on now, and what day are you going to consider yourself sufficiently recovered to try your plan?

    "Why not for pleasure? I don't get that. Masturbation can be sex with someone you love: you! And it's a way to explore your authentic sexual fantasies, if you can rescue them back from memories of porn."

    Because porn is for pleasure, because i only want that with a real woman anymore. And the point of this is to be as strict as possible so it does not fail and if it should it would be very minor fail such as thinking of a woman while MOing which is harmless but nevertheless a loss of control and i can go back to no PMO happily knowing it didnt work out

    "What day are you on now, and what day are you going to consider yourself sufficiently recovered to try your plan?"

    2 weeks in now, hard to put a day on it, no less than 6 months id say, but probably around a year
