    Hi,

    So I was dumb enough to watch some porn and masturbate (maybe 5 min of porn) and masturbated for maybe two mins. I did not orgasm, and I know there are a lot of posts out there regarding this.

    I am really struggeling to choose if I should just "finnish" the job, or if I should try to keep on going.

    What do you guys think?
    Someone with experience that edged and have been able to keep a good streak?

    I am currently on day 12.

    Thanks!

    Don't believe what your mind is trying to tell you. You haven't watched porn and edged for hours, just for a few minutes. I don't say that it is good, but this happens to a lot of people in the early stage of rebooting / first weeks of their streak.

    You can do it mate! Push through.

    To me personally, that is not the question you should be asking yourself. You should be asking how can I best stop all of it completely? What tools are available for me to use so I can beat this thing and help others progress in their recovery the way I have. Because, to me, masturbating for any amount of time, looking at anything, porn or porn sub, the way I enjoy watching porn, means a complete and total reset, no exceptions.

    And EASILY the best way to get on with recovery is to get accountability for yourself. Find an SA group here that you can join and get a sponsor from and an AP or two.

  4. I've been in your shoes and I am pretty sure I would have gone all the way. It happens. Don't sweat your streak for now, but if this starts to become a daily thing, I would reset. And a word about "zero", it doesn't mean "nothing" or "no days at all." The zero indicates bravery. It indicates that a guy is still learning and trying, and there's nothing wrong with that. Don't give up.

    Thanks! Totally agree! If it happens more then once for me, I will just start over. I relapsed tho, but I won't give up. I will just learn from what happend and try to make sure it does not happen again :)

  6. Jeah there are these guys on Nofap forums with 500+ streaks and when they speak about their streak's they're only on week 2, but don't want to reset counters since nobody would listen to them, but they are only deceiving themself's by not admiting by reseting counter that they are not perfect.

    Edging is reset in my book. That being said. If you streak is high, it may be better to keep the streak than resetting and entering a pmo spiral.
