Recently an incident happened here https://forum.nofap.com/index.php?threads/about-to-lose-my-fucking-mind.346419/#post-3553304 I'm tired of doing this... I went from being scared of getting a relapse... to actually reset all my processes... for 4 years doing nofap i gained great benefits from it... it helped me improve social life, and reduced my social anxiety and depression... but now everything is gone wasted... one simple incident doubt me whether it's relapse or not? but luckily it's not relapse... it's a fucking reset, isn't it the same started from day 1 again? since then i'm losing my will power and my anxiety raising like crazy... plus losing myself felt the most painful... I'm so done with this fucking life... I feel the urge to do something stupid... I just wanna leave this post here... cause i can't tell nobody otherwise...
BROTHER RELAPSE MEANS DOING PMO LIKE YOU USED TO. LAPSE MEANS THAT YOU DID LESS PMO COMPARED TO YOU USED TO. DON'T GIVE A FU*K ABOUT THIS FORGET ABOUT ALL THESE AND LIVE YOU LIFE HAPPILY.
I knew it wasn't a relapse... but it was still considered reset, the difference between relapse and reset is that relapse is going back to my old habit... but reset is still have count from day 1 again...
great quotes from you... i don't wanna beat myself up either... the facts that after being told to reset my counter... i immediately lose all the hopes and power that i gained... i just could not resist all these things to go away, it literally put into actions...
Whether it was a relapse or a reset, it doesn't matter. You lost energy, however, you have a lot more spare energy due to the long streak of NoFap. But since you did do PMO, you now are clouded by dark, negative energy. It is like being in a haze, like being in a maze that you cannot see out of. You must get yourself out of this dark energy mindset. One option: either today or tomorrow, skip a meal. Be hungry for a few hours and drink only water, and during this time, pray to the Lord to take away the negative energy. Option two: go exercise, and do some really healthy stuff. Also, get a good nights sleep. This negative energy will pass, it is a hellish internal environment. So no wonder you are feeling bad right now. But you just have to make it through these few days... Good luck, you can do it!
I just read your original post. Well, seems your body has underwent a shock. And this image of what you saw has strongly stuck inside of you. A deep, instinctual part of you was provoked is what I am thinking. Over time, it should subside.. This can be a great lesson learned... we must constantly be vigilant.. there is so much electronic content that is almost like porn, and if we view it closely, it will cause this shocking response that sticks with us. Keep going! you have not failed, try and erase the memory from your mind
I would be at peace if i don't have to reset the streaks despite i didn't even masturbated or orgasmed... But unfortunately some rules consider it to be reset rather than relapse... I'm trying to get my sense together... To move on another day, I'm not sure if i can do it or not
I’d say this wasn’t a reset or a relapse. It’s like you were walking in a forest and your attention was distracted by something. You shouldn’t reset your counter and you also shouldn’t count this is a reset. You ALMOST fell, but managed to hold on. You slipped, but didn’t fall. so just keep going as you were
Sorry for late response...if that really true then i can just easily shut my mind off now... Thank you so much for clearing this up for me
I also relapsed today and now I am on a point of nowhere where I know that almost nothing is going to work for me if I just started my journey again. I am telling so many lies to myself that I am confused now what to do.
