Hello guys, If I didn't cum for 8 days but I touched myself and watched porn am I at day 8 or should I start again at day 1 ? I try to stop but I'm hard all the time it's very difficult. What are the effects after a couple of months without jerking off ? thanks
you edged you can start over your counter if you want but its not how many days you abstain dont count the days if you forget the counter it will be easier for you to accomplish your goal dont edge while watching p i did it in the past doesnt help you at all makes you a bad person it wakes up you inner beast , inside you is the good wolf and the bad wolf be carefull of who wold you are feeding because the wolf who is fed more will win
Thank you bro, but if I don't count the days how can I know how long I've been holding ? I want to reach my goal of 2 months without doing it
You've edged, reset your counter, but don't mind too much about it. Don't just count the days, make the days count. Focus on being clean and work on improvement, that's how you make the best out of NoFap. Reaching a certain amount of days is not a bad goal, it just shouldn't be the number one most important thing in the entire face of the planet, you know? Good luck!
Thank you guys ! I start again. I have a question about my journal, do I have to crest a new thread for every entry or can I have a sort of journal ?
Your journal should be in your age range section, and no, you shouldn't make a new thread for each one. Best of luck to you.
I personally think you could define what are you aiming at when you keep a counter (and if whether counting days helps you at all or not). I am not saying this for you to beat yourself down everytime you break the rules, but more so you get a better idea the kind of life you are aiming for when you quit porn for good.
If you stopped pretty early and used your willpower to put it down and away, then I wouldn't consider it a relapse. In that case, it would be more of a victory since you took the step to stop (it's way harder to not PMO when your in the middle of masturbating). But if you edged until you felt like you were pleased enough, count it.
Actually I didn't touch myself while watching porn, I was just horny and I wanted to watch porn. After that I was still very horny so I touched myself, it was like I lost control but I said to myself "don't relapse now it's been almost a week" and I stopped. But it's hard, I get boners many times a day and I have rough time dealing with it.
