    So next 2 weeks I'll be taking my mid-year exams
    Considering this I'm trying to not masturbate for the next few weeks which is what I've been trying to do for the last year now.
    Ever since covid-19 started and I started sitting all day at home (not any more tho) the longest I was able to go without fapping was 4 days even tho last year I had my best which was about 2 weeks and a half (which was around last year's mid-year exam).
    So I'm sick of not being able to hold it in
    But I just can't seem to be able to stop .
    I need all my mental energy and concentration to be able to do good on this year's exams but I'm afraid I'll find myself wasting time ,that I should be studying ,in fapping and so that's why I'm here today to ask for help from the generous people here.
    Right now I'm on my 3rd day of the streak and I'm not sure if I'll even be able to sleep today without doing it and my exam is next sunday
    So please if you have any advice for me, tell me
    Thanks for reading.
    I'll be waiting for any comments cause I'm afraid I'll do it tonight.

    I really know what you are feeling right now. The exact same problem occurs to me because I promised myself tons of times in every term begin or before the exams I literally count the days to become 'reboot' my brain. I think if we master this addiction, we need to master our emotions. Because whenever we stressed, worry about school, exams, projects, or whenever we have considering bad emotions, we want our fix to get "balanced". It is like fixing an internal chaos. I have gone months without using porn to get my dopamine fix but it is basically not enough, when I decided to use again, I binged like crazy since 5 weeks and I became unable to stop, have strong chaser effect. We need to a mentality which is porn is not an option even with strongest pain, even withdrawals feel like dying. We need to better life management strategies, when this happens there won't such a problem like addiction. But it requires practice and patience. You have my all support :)
