It's never the number of days, it's the learning day by day, you deserve a virtual pat on back for making this far. Don't beat yourself up . It's just like grinding hard for 70 days and eating a pizza for just one day, you are not back to square one. It's just a minor setback. Stay strong idol!
easily the first option. when you´re in deep addiction for something, it´s very unlikely that willpower alone will do. you must create physical barriers against the addiction. against porn always being with somebody helps alot. after a good streak you may be able to be alone and don´t mess up, but for now be in a social context is better.
it happens. it shows to prove that the addiction is strong. never be confident, never let your guard down.
man , tough luck. i was rooting for you. well, still you manage 73 days, that´s awesome . your brain rewired a lot and the next streaks will be much more easy. just watch out for binging on the next days. one thing i notice in my journey is as the days go by if i don´t motivate myself enough against porn and towards a great life, the addiction slowly starts to grow in my head again. so a piece of advice, every day motivate yourself why you´re doing nofap. that way you won´t forget the pain. remembrance will sharpen your attitude.
20 very hard these past days. i was horny all day long, didn´t motivate myself enough to nofap and found myself mentally looking for an excuse to PMO. even on movies i was checking out girls . luckly i found out where was i faulting (didn´t motivate myself enough) so i watch nofap videos and i was back on track. here´s a great video. let´s go brothers!!!!
Yes, definitely agree @RiseToGreatness! Need to keep the motivation fresh, need to keep reminding ourselves, or the addiction will work its way back and take over. Thanks for the encouragement and advice
!!! LONG TEXT I KNOW (SRY) !!! Maybe this is the reason why I relapsed... as I watched porn I thought " Man, thats wrong. You know that! What should God say about it? What would you tell your kids/wife/family about that?" Seconds after the relapse: " Why I am doing NoFap? Why? Only in cases when Im depressed? Want I really quit with PMO? Or is this a trick from the addiction, but honestly I want to quit with PMO?" Now Im writing this and... feeling empty. Not sad, not happy, empty. Relieved, disappointed... my brain feels poisoned, my body feels healthy... why I got those thousands of paradoxing feelings everytime... also no motivation for the GYM or guitar, but for Breakdance and girls...real girls... what is wrong with me xD
Well, I reached 38 days without PMO. I'm still 43 days without P, though in the wee hours of the morning I MO'd. Back to the beginning though with a refreshed view of this challenge and how good it really is for me.
Day 2 - No distraction no urges.. but phone sex moments stuck in my mind.it coming in mind again and again...feeli fe guilty for my past...I will bounce back..no doubt..
