    [from Reddit/NoFap] Why you must not edge -"What you're describing is called edging. I PROMISE YOU if you continue to edge you WILL relapse there are no ifs, ands, or buts about it.
    TRUST ME this is as simple as 1+1=2. I stopped going on /b/ for that very reason. You have to cut out pornographic images in general, even perusing that busty girl's Facebook could be dangerous. Here's how it starts, "Man, I'm doing well at nofap. Already at 60 days?!?!? I don't even wanna fap anymore...hmmm...wow Stephanie is looking hot in that two piece...what can I say I just like looking at hot women. There's nothing in nofap against looking at hot women...Let me check out /s/ just to see what's goin' on, it's not like I'm gonna fap or anything. I just wanna see some tits...Wow, these girls are so hot. Let me check out /gif/ it's not like I'm streaming porn or anything, they're just gifs...Wow, I'm so horny right now. I'm sure it won't matter if I just touch myself a little bit...it's not like I'm gonna full on fap and orgasm of anything. These girls are so fucking hot. I know a girl on xnxx that looks just like her...It won't matter if I check her out. I'm not gonna finish, I just wanna see her and that vid is sick...OMG, I can't fucking help myself, she's so hot. I DON'T EVEN GIVE A FUCK ANYMORE. orgasm Wow...woooowwwww..wwwoooooowwww....90 days down the FUCKING drain...omfg.
    I might as well keep going now since I already broke the streak...what the fuck ever...fuck." And that my friend is how it goes. If you allow yourself to walk the tightrope you will definitely lose your balance. DON'T DO IT!" --Esbietoo

    This slippery slope is something that all of us need to watch out for! The key problem is that people think that they can "cheat" the system simply by edging themselves but denying the orgasm. However, the dopamine rush associated with browsing porn is still going to keep the addiction going... and as the floor falls out from under you as you get closer and closer to the point of no return while edging, following through and orgasming will simply be inevitable. Hence, I insist that everyone refrain from even edging! This mission is [no porn/masturbation], not NoCum. Deal with it.

    Very accurate comment. It's been an ongoing problem for me. The idea that 'A quick look won't hurt', followed by the idea that 'Oh well, I've already looked and relapsed now, I might as well go all the way'.

    Edging is evil.

    Edging is by far the very worst! It allows you to consume massive amount of dopamine and P! And no, you cannot peak, that will lead to relapse. You have to resign yourself to never, ever, to look at P or P substitutes. NO MORE PMO or PME ever!!!!!!!!!!!

    I tried to stay from edging but sometimes those urges are controlling. But that's when the cold showers come in to get rid of the urges.

    Amazing man. This is so true. Edging is was what got me. I figured as long as I didnt O I would be fine. Well I finally O'd without meaning to. Don't even start edging. It will only lead to destruction. I am at 2 days and 8 hours and I completely regret my decision.

    This post is 100% spot on, and I know from experience! Just don't do it! Write PMO/PME off as a possibility at all! It's the only way.
