    Its almost a week now, It wasn't easy but the motivation is becoming stronger as more time passes.

    Here is my question:
    I have a habit of getting a full body massage about 2-3 times a month, It releases stress and I feel like a new person whenever I do it. The problem is that this could be a big trigger now that I'm on a no PM streak.

    On the flip side, I feel like this could calm me down and keep me going as it usually does, and if it will pass without me getting a urge and masturbating afterwards it could be a benefit.

    Should I take the risk? or just go without it and make it a PMM streak...
    Has anyone had an experience like this of getting a massage while on a no PMO streak?

    In my opinion you should do it, nofap is not just stop doing things that can lead you to a relapse, its about doing this things without relapsing in my opinion

    Provided that you work with a reputable professional (no "happy ending") it should be good. Have a plan in place to combat potential urges afterwards. Plan to meet with friends or go to the gym. If it doesn't trigger you that's great, if it does you'll know to avoid it temporarily.

    I think that you should take the risk. The massage is worth it

    This is not an abnormal thing to release stress. Its perfectly fine. PMO is abnormal and it should be stopped once for a lifetime.
