    Day 36.Give be your opinion on wet dreams.I haven't had one yet but had a lot of them in my previous NOFAP journey in 2013.I never looked at them as a bad thing but I see some people talk about them on here as if they are a negative that could cause you to relapse?Why would you relapse off of that if it's a sexual release that your body has without your control?

    It depends. Some rebooters say it sets them back, especially when they happen too frequently. Others say it's not a big deal.
    The orgasm can induce a chaser effect. Meaning the rebooter will have severe addiction cravings for a few days because of the orgasm. They can lead to a relapse.
    The return of WDs is a sign of progress, like the return of morning wood, though that is very subjective.

    Personally I do not have many WDs. I do have sexual dreams from time to time. I consider them progress, especially when the content of the dream gets closer to realistic sex vs porn view fetish sex.

    I say the same thing about my sexual dreams and when I start having Wet dreams.I don't see how it could be viewed as a negative.I understand the chaser effect tho.Personally I've never given in after that because it felt so real that I didn't need give in,lol.I think it is signs of recovery and that you at close to being 100%.

    This far only positive reviews of WD have been posted, so I will be playing the villain this time :)

    Well, it might be just me but, I definitely lose my edge anytime I have a wet dream: I lose confidence, get distracted more easily, and I have the chaser effect to bother the hell out of me for a couple days. Fortunately, I don't get a WD that often.
