    Completed 8 days today and yesterday was the most difficult day.
    The urges were so strong that it was making me restless. But I didn't PMO and realised that its really a mind game. I also had thoughts like :-
    I should masturbate once as I haven't done it for a week.
    OR Just this last time.
    But don't fall for them, keep your will power strong and try to recall how porn has messed your life and what will be successful result if you completely quit this habit.
    I kept my head under water several times so that I may not fall for the urges.
    And one more thing.
    Please keep posting regularly as it gives you a sense of achievement and when you talk about the problems faced you yourself start seeing the solution to it.
    I hope it helps.
    Stay strong.
    We will win together.

    Last year, I had too many relapses caused by these exact same words:
    It's better to fight against the urge when it is only starting. Urges and all the dopamine processes are like snowballs. They are small at the beginning, but if we let them continue, they will smash over us.

    Thanks for posting.

    Hi Halyan,
    you offer very timely and wise advice. You are right up to a point about addiction being primarily in the brain. However the body can also become addicted to a dopamine rush.
    You made a wise decision about not fapping. Thoughts of "doing it one last time " are delusional! It never is the last time is it? I myself have tried to have one last binge prior to stopping for good.
    But to no avail. I mean this in the nicest possible way, FOLLOW YOUR OWN ADVICE! Keep posting on this website. It is a wonderful resource. Which we should all use.

    Take care friend and good luck!
