    Hello guys,
    I've been trying to quit that shit for almost a year now. I thought that it would be easy to be honest, but it isn't.
    Anyways, I've had a lot of good streaks with a 72 day the first time I tried and life was beautiful.

    I've been struggling since then...mentally not physically mostly.
    Mental withdrawals.
    Yesterday was day 5 no pmo and before I went to sleep I watched a couple of hot girls videos but I didn't fap and went to sleep.

    What made me relapse today is that I had a dream watching a porn video but didn't fap in the dream. Also some weird shit can't even describe it.

    Why was it easy before? Why is it hell now? Why do I have nightmares almost daily? Nightmares of things that scare the shit out of me.

    Please guys, I really need help! I'm thinking about giving up on everything!

    Fuck and sorry if I'm complaining too much but I feel like shit.

    You need to stop using any sexual stimulus. Block porn sites along with youtube and any social sites that can be potential trigger. You need to go hardmode and quit cold turkey. Doing the positives like working out, running, socializing, meditation, having an accountability partner etc are as important as destroying the negatives. Seek professional help if you can't handle it alone. Good luck!

    Hey adam1992,

    OK, here goes my best "I'm not a brain scientist" imitation. Your brain is starving for certain chemicals it has gotten used to. As I understand it, dreams are your brain trying to process what happened to you that day and how to store it. So if you are changing the chemical make-up of your thoughts, you may be processing differently as you sleep. Not sure why this didn't happen before, maybe it was a different set of circumstances.

    I will do this brother! The point is every time I start feeling better my evil brain tricks me in anyway possible and I keep on falling.

    Thanks bro! I figured out that since my brain knows what bothers me the most, it uses that trick to get me back to pmo whenever it wants. I will make it though no matter what
