I am not new to NoFap. I have known about it for a few years but didn't start taking it seriously till last year. I have had multiple streaks throughout my year and a half of participation. 21 days, 5, days, 30 days etc. My highest so far has been 41 consecutive days no PMO or sex what so ever. Lately though I keep falling off the horse. I'll do 4 days relapse 5 days relapse, rinse and repeat. I have done meditation, sought religion out again, spirituality, tried focusing on hobbies you name it. I never use porn for more than 15 minutes a session and when I relapse it's usually 1 or 2 that day followed by an almost weeklong streak. It's not about the frequency but I want to quit to have a clearer mind and stop the fantasizing and focus on becoming a healthier person in mind, body and spirit. Sometimes I forget my Why and that is the foundation of quitting any bad habit. I rationalize and give in and then immediately following O I start googling for answers to my problems. This has been going on since I started. I don't know how to feel about this anymore. I'm just so confused and need guidance.

Your not alone.. Have as many beneficial routines in your day, like working out etc..
Unfortunately sometimes you have to hit rock bottom before you can change for the better. Life has to be miserable before we find the motivation to change. When I find people on NoFap who were caught by their spouse, the threat of their spouse leaving them has scared them straight and they end up with 500+ day streaks after their wake up call. Maybe we end up so far down the rabbit hole that it frightens us. Porn escalates. It gets stranger and stranger. It gets evil. It destroys people and families.

Don't lose hope. It's actually a war between our willpower and the demon inside us. We are the one to allow which one to take control ourselves. That's my simple formula and everyday morning I start my day with the warm greeting to my willpower and challenging the demon. I feel so proud by counting each day and moving ahead. It's an amazing feeling to beat the demon on every successful day. YOU CAN BROTHER!
