Concerning the PMO Slider, and other questions.

Hi, I'm new to Nofap, and I started the challenge half as a bet and half just to see if I could actually do it. I'm a week into it without M or O, but when I signed up for the site, I noticed the slider didn't have an option without P, and I just looked at some porn today (but didn't stroke it) so I was wondering if I could still apply as PMO or if the porn automatically makes me reset the counter, and why there isn't an option without P. thanks.
 
P is the main issue. If you look at P without M or O that's really just a form of edging, and it does a lot of harm. Besides, you could end up having an O without any M because of it (it's happened to me). Or you could get bad blue balls (but these will go away pretty soon, it's not an excuse to MO).

Each viewing of P creates more craving for the next one, very much like the addiction to smoking cigarettes.

I know from experience that a 30-day streak with no P at all is much better than a 60-day streak with occasional "peeking" i.e. edging.

From my past streaks I've just set it to custom and occasionally peaked, hopefully this time I can go 30 days without peaking at all like you mentioned. Edging always seem to make my guilty meter spike too.

I've had thoughts about betting friends about abstaining but I always end up shying away from an actual bet. I'd almost want to bet $100 or something extreme like shaving my head lol. I used to go by the same tactic of peaking but I'm changing it up this time.
 
Yeah, I’ll admit the challenge seems kind of easy if I can just watch some ass for a few minutes. It seems like I don’t get blue balls like a lot of guys and it just kind of satisfies me if I’m just looking.

It might satisfy you in the short-term but it keeps you stuck in the habit, and it causes dopamine imbalances and all that bad stuff.
