So I joined NoFap about a two and a half months. I've been gradually improving but I seem to get stuck at around 9 days from abstaining from PMOs. I'm honestly not sure how I can break that record, I really want to get it around 14 days within the next month but I need advice on how to control my urges
just tell yourself that you're going to do it and JUST DO IT! But seriously, if you can't have self-discipline then you can never make it in life, so look at this as a test.
Awesome job on that 9 day streak. I'm having trouble dealing with urges myself. I try to plan out things that will reduce the urges like exercise or keeping my mind busy with something else. I also have to always remember my reasons why I am quitting pmo and how important it is to quit. It's so easy to forget the reasons why I'm quitting and how important it is to quit when urges come on strong.
Well 5 days in, gonna be 6 in a few hours, I'm getting some urges be so far so good. I see what you mean, when I start thinking about porn I lose sense of why I'm quitting pmo, like my brain is trying to rationalize that it's okay to masterbate but I have to learn control those urges and not think short-termed.
This journey won't feel good or be easy. You can start anytime and end anytime. But the reasons why you want to stop will need to be the priority when it gets challenging. Good luck
