I'm creating a beginner's thirty-days no PMO challenge. Interested people may join. I'm a beginner myself. The duration is small, but it's big and significant for me. Let us help each other positively. Thank you.
Thanks for the response. I'm glad to see you join. I was new to this forum. Can you please tell me whether there is any automated system here to keep track of our progress in a particular challenge? How the challenges are done?
What is the status everyone? How was the first day? As far as I'm concerned for me, it was easy because of initial motivation. But I do not think I'll be able to maintain the same level of motivation throughout my reboot. The biggest impediment for me will be fantasizing within the mind.
I relapsed today as well. Today morning i wanted to view that vintage stuff and failed. No problem, lets do this 30 days challenge. We will do it. We must do it.
So ive been on hard mode, mainly because my girlfriend and I have decided to abstain from sex and even kissing until 5 dates (long story), but today we failed and we made out and she jerked me off.. Does this count as a reset? Although i know a large part of NoFap is that the fact that you dont release makes you feel like your on steroids (mentally also) you just feel great right. Another part of NoFap is rewiring what you know about sex (what youve learned from p) and replacing those thoughts/memories with real/personal experiences. At least for me it is.. So i know im stuck in the middle, but i guess i reset right? I just havent fallen back to bad habits? It sucks that i released but i did it in a recreational way.. what do you guys think?
i don't think it counts because it was real. Porn is harmful because it is not reality. it is a way to escape reality.
I don't think it is counted, because it is real as @jack1234 mentioned, as long as u are not imagining it mentally and see it in reality then it is not counted as PMO
i have read about rebooting 3 years ago, want to do it but not really put 100% of my effort to get out from this addiction, today i just relapsed and feel so bad, i don't want to spend my time and energy for something non productive, since this is my last semester year in college and i need to do research for my undergraduate thesis. now i will put my 100% effort to avoid any sexual stimulation , i need to remove my games too, since i spent too much time for games and rid this addiction, i will join this challenge
