    Today marks the 23rd day without porn and masturbation for me, and I don't think I have been happier before. Finally, I think I am getting a grip on my life after years of addiction towards porn and masturbation. Recently, I had sex with my girlfriend and I must admit it was better than the sex I had when I also used to fap to porn. Guys, it's real when people say that quitting masturbation improves your sex life. I have experienced it myself. My erections are now super hard and my sensitivity has also increased a lot. Also, my previous problem of delayed ejaculation is also getting cured. I have invested myself in exercising daily to vent out my built-up sexual energy. I am also really looking forward to experience the 'superpower' that people so frequently mention.

    Quitting porn and masturbation has not been easy at all for me. I still get really strong urges and they prompt me to just watch a little porn for like 5 minutes. However, I have found a way to overcome the spontaneous action of opening porn. Whenever I get thoughts in mind about opening porn, I just think to myself, will it really matter if I watch porn for 5 minutes, because anyway I can't fap to porn in 5 minutes. This convinces my conscious mind that watching porn even for 5 minutes is not really worth it. Along with this, making a to-do list of activities that I am supposed to do also helps a lot. I have not really picked up any special activity to fill up my PM time. However, I am still fighting my addiction with self control and determination.

    I don't really like to install porn blocking software because I have always found ways to circumvent them. I understand the real battle is in my mind and only utmost dedication and determination can swing the battle in my favor.

    I also understand that this is life-long battle and I shall not lower my guard at any time, because once I fail, the abyss will be really deep and dark. Looking forward to complete one month without PM and then many more milestones as well.

    'The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep. And miles to go before I sleep. And miles to go before I sleep'.

    Is Sex With girlfriend count as relapse or not and why?
     
  6. It depended on your goals. Some people are just trying to abstain from pm (porn masturbation) others are going hardmode which is no orgasm. Personally i think it depends on your reasons fir doing this. If you have physical health issues from masturbation, you will recover faster from hard mode (my opinion). Hope this helps.
