    Hello there, as for right now I am almost 28 days into NoFap. I am trying to reduce the dopamine in my brain to a minimum and I’ve come across a little problem. Let’s just say that I still follow (porn related) models on Instagram. They do not post any pornographic or nude content because it is against instagrams community guidelines but they still post certain content which I’m certain still releases a little dopamine in the brain. Now my question is or this is putting my 90 days at risk. Are those pictures enough dopamine to work against my reboot and positive effects (which I btw have trouble experiencing)? Is it okay for me to look at there pictures or should I unfollow them? Please let me know what you think!

    I know what you mean. I have a tendency to go on Twitter and if there is a profile pic that looks interesting, I'll open it up and get a better look. I think this kind of thing can be harmless for some but for me, it's a trigger to behavior that can lead to PMO again. I knock it off when I start to do it and go do something else. Get off line, read a book, go outside. Basically, I think for long term success you will need to establish a "Look Away" policy for images and environmental triggers that can lead to your PMO behaviors.

    And very well done on 28 days! I just passed the 70 mark on no Porn and feel pretty damn good about it!

    Hello. First of all congratulations on achieving 26 days, good work right there.
    Second, i would be careful with those instagram models if i were you. I don't follow any girls from instagram but i did encounter suggestive/triggering and sometimes outright explicit things on Twitter when i was first starting the process, which in the beggining made things very difficult. I had to unfollow the people who were retweeting these images.
    Some people may feel different about this, but as of now i'd suggest unfollowing them, just looking for a bit can sometimes lead to a lot more on other pages so be careful on not playing with fire.

    Yeah. It's not worth it. Keep away from all THOTS.

    This is like a drug dealer asking if he can snort a tiny amount of crack a day, a small crumb.
