Same here I almost fell a victim but have gained control. Was on Pinterest and came across pics of anime girls which triggered my urges. I was having alot of desire to watch one clip. Like this part I have never done and am really happy it happened. So I was having a mental conflict between watching some and my mind had really bought the idea. I paused for sometime and assessed the effects of watching. Then I just opened nofap and the urges have reduced.
Day in process. Two months down.... I have gained alot of control over my urges. Just proved that today. Let's keep fighting brothers.
This has kinda come to my concern so many people are relapsing. The process is challenging but you have to be strong. Most people haven't crossed the one month yet. Not that am judging anyone. But am just saying let's be strong, and push passed out limits. Temptations are everywhere. I just experienced a heavy one a while back. But I have powered through and am still impressed and shocked by that achievement. Let's be mindful and aware of the urges. And let's not give in. We are strong.

Just a quick thought and question to you lads... about the triggers... What are your triggers? For me very often are YT videos that I go across or pics on google search.. also some fine girls at the gym or on the metro tube. What's yours?
My triggers are all of your plus any negative emotions (hangover, drunk, anger, sadness, lonely, self pity, rejection, etc) which make me want to self medicate with PMO to help me feel better. Looking at (accidentally or intentionally) attractive girls, sexy pics or nudity on TV, computer or devises will also usually be a trigger for me. Hope that helps.
19 days. I've noticed a change which has happened on previous streaks. Purely sexual thoughts about women are being gradually balanced by more romantic thoughts. Time away from porn allows us I think to reset our default way of relating to females - from physical lust objects, to actual people with thoughts and dreams and feelings and personalities, etc. Feels nice, part of a return to normalcy.
Good Am guys sorry I Couldn't post yesterday, due the circumstances i was faced with....Yesterday was my 6th day of nofap and i really went through hell as i started having the urge to M i really tried everything i could not to M but to no avail. instead of the urge to subside the urge for ejaculation increased, and i didn't know what to do at this moment as i Was confused and i was the only one at home, the rest of my family members had gone to the farm and i was the only one remaining. So i had to device a means to calm this shit down so that i dont relapse.So i decided to stroll around,I left the house and went to the stream where i could view nature at its peak and i stayed there till dawn meditating, before i knew what happened the urge to M subsided and i stopped thinking about sex. then i started writing down my plans and started making short term goals...it is already 6:00 pm in the evening and i have started receiving calls from my siblings the were worried about my whereabout. So i went home took a bath and had a good night rest.... So that was how i succeeded yesterday in my nofap streak..
even a rom.com movie can be the trigger for me if i watch it alone.. the sense of loneliness it leaves made me turn to P Hi, quite silent Saturday Day 6/90 courage to all of us!
