    Hi! I have successfully abstained from PMO for 7 days now. But I am feeling lusty. Sometimes I want to masturbate so badly. I live alone in hostel. Actually it is vacation. So very few students live here. That's why these urges are becoming so strong.
    Many times thoughts of porn scenes come to my mind. Does anyone know the solution for this. Please help me otherwise i may end up masturbating to porn.

    Do not sit around and do nothing, go for a walk, go walk around your favorite store, do something active to get the boredom out of your head which could lead you to doing things you wish you wouldn’t of done. I learned sitting in the house isn’t a way to cure yourself, you have to do it yourself. Be active, do things you normally wouldn’t do, read, go for a walk, do something other than be on your phone or computer.

    Hope this helps. As it has for me, although i am not feeling the urges, i understand completely though..

    Best of luck. You got this 100%

    Thanks a lot. I will definitely try to implement your advice. Can you give one more advice? Actually I have to use laptop and Internet for work. When I get bored those urges return. And you know it's easy to fall prey when you have an Internet connection. I have blocked porn sites but it's easy to get explicit videos on instagram, YouTube etc

    Yo I'm almost at a week, also feeling urges too. I usually call up a friend for support.

    I don't think going out all the time works, but I would just do pushups and also a cold shower too.

    Just remember, ITS NOT WORTH IT. In the long run you'll appreciate what you have done.

    First i want to congratulate you that you are on 7th day of your NoFap journey,brother to avoid urges you should keep yourself busy,and you should think that how porn is destroying your life,and always remember pmo destroys your brain reward system.
    good luck man

    Just remember why you are on this site to begin with, what your goal is and think about that when the urges strike. Have a motivation background on your phone, so you will always see it, find something to remind you daily as to why you are here on this site to begin with. Put a sticky note on your bathroom mirror, something to stop the devil from winning!
