How does Edging worsen reboot?

u dont need to constanly see if ur dick works. trust the process

 

I used to do the same thing. Trying to edge to see if it worked.

Long story short, this is basically a time bomb that leads to relapse. Don't edge, you progress will come in other ways.

It comes down to dopamine. It's not normal to bombard your brain with high dopamine levels for prolonged time like you do when you edge. That leads to damaged dopamine receptors and a lower baseline for your dopamine. You will be less motivated, more tired, etc because of that.

 

This explains everything.

No pmo is a habit not a task.

 

@IGY and @Sobriety Knight are correct. I know because edging is what led to my own PIED.

 

Someone mentioned here that after successful healing from PMO he did edging out of curiosity and it caused so much tension in muscles ( pelvis and belly) and it felt so bad that after 5 or 10 minutes ( I don't remember) he quit, it was too much uncomfortable. But previously while stuck in PMOing he didn't felt it like that.

 

Edging is bad because it releases dopamine. The main goal of Nofap is to stop the dopamine addiction however you release a lot of dopamine by edging so you are seriously slowing progress. And edging almost always leads to relapse sooner or later, trust me bro

 

Your body is craving dopamine release. Do not give in. Go out to a public place like the mall or library or go for a hike if you live in a more rural place. You are going to have a very hard time if you sit in your room just fighting the urge to fap, you must get a healthy source of dopamine

 

When I started edging in my last relationship (I felt so clever) it made having sex more difficult than ever before.

 

So looking at images without MO or O is considered edging and therefore considered a relapse? I may have made a huge mistake... Do I need to reset the timer?
