Instagram relapse?

Instagram certainly can have it's floors. Whilst browsing, I came across an arousing picture of a sexy woman and double checked (looked again quickly) to see if I saw it. I don't know why I did that even though it was for like half a second. I've placed it down as a strike and I have 16 more to go until I strike out and fail my challenge, but do any of you consider that as a relapse?

Here's the line I draw for myself personally: If I consciously do something that I know hurts my recovery, that's a relapse. So if I see an attractive woman and maybe look at her for a few seconds, that's not a problem. The real question is this: As soon as I realize that I'm doing it, what is my decision? If I am self-aware and realize it's an issue and turn away - good for me. If I continue to ogle knowing that it's wrong - bad.

Wet/erotic dreams are not a relapse as you don't have any control over those things.

Honestly man, a half a second peek of a P-substitute does not qualify as a relapse according to my rules. Just be careful not to give in into a full blown relapse.

Many thanks for the helpful replies! I really want to reach a whole year so stuff like this really does panic me. Today the same thing happened again. This time it was about 3 seconds but moved away from it as quickly as possible. I'm happy to say though that it doesn't trigger anything. I think I worry too much for any triggers to work! I'm very determined to get to the goal! I think I'll still keep it as a strike because it means I can toughen myself up a bit more.

Its impossible to avoid accidental vire of nudity and stuff like that in today's society. Unless you live in the woods. As long as you do what it takes to stay away from porn and P-subs your fine. For example yesterday a roommate sent a picturr of a sexy girl in a whatsapp group chat. Nothing I could do about it.. When I saw the picture I just thought nothing of it and moved on.

Do you think that looking at an attractive woman is bad?
Do I understand correctly?

It is a sign you are not being consistent within yourself. You need to recommit to your principles and what you know is right and wrong.

No, absolutely not. Looking at an attractive woman is healthy and it shouldn't be avoided. We don't want to lead a life where we avert our eyes from all the beauty we are surrounded with.

It's about what your mind is doing when you look at an attractive woman that matters. If I'm in yoga and notice a young lady who has a nicely toned body... Do I 'store' that image for later so that I can create fantasies about her? Or do I appreciate her femininity quickly and then move on? One is healthy, the other isn't.

You are right! If you can control it, it is not a problem anymore.
As I said if you can control it it’s is already a progress. But you need to understand that this accs normally are fake or with A LOT OF photoshop in it. This girls change their bodies and anything what they want to in 5 minutes to make you think that they are gorgeous. But I need to say that the service that they are using that helps them to recruit their body is amazing. It is legal and gives opportunity to became “famous”. I thing the girls that you were looking on are not an exception at all. I’ve used it around a year and make around 20k $ just because of promotions on my acc. It really works.
