Non-pornographic sexually stimulating material

Got to 20 days and relapsed so fucking disappointed in my self now I can't stop fapping i wanna die so bad

 

What are you going to do about it?

I don’t ask this in a confrontational way, nor a condescending way. I ask this because, to me, it’s an important question I ask myself in order to not succumb to my triggers. This is among the questions I ask myself to prepare.

Now, thoughts, and the brain in general, play a tremendous role in sex and sexual stimulation. If you entertain bad thoughts or other sorts of negativity, then you’re in a terrible mindset to relapse. Instead, think of thoughts you’d consider uplifting. Hum an uplifting song, and do that every time the temptations come. Anything that can replace the thoughts will put you on good ground.

In our society, we unfortunately have a tough time boycotting sexual innuendos that lead to such destructive thoughts, but This is when we need to take control of our own thoughts.

Simultaneously (in reference to my above message), don’t beat yourself up every time you fail. Use failures as an opportunity to learn, because many times, the only time we gain wisdom is from failure. The path to success has many failures; what matters is if you get back up and continue. I stopped using porn in 2010 after I adopted this mindset; even a few months before then I was PMOing many times a day, and I thought I would never succeed. But, I did, nonetheless I had hiccoughs along the road.

 

Thought nobody would ever talk about this but I'm glad you did - as a matter of fact, every now and then I watch some of the vids you mention (k-pop dance covers, OOTD's, bikini hauls, etc.) as a way to distract me from looking out for porn (since all that non-P stuff is available on YT).

Also, I do it to appreciate the feminity, delicacy and even the personality from the girls featured on the vids (whether they're dancing, posing next to a car or something) but I've always wondered if doing so might end up triggering me to relapse?

 

Those are called P-subs. If an alcoholic is drinking beer instead of liquor, would you say that they are recovered?

 

You shouldn't watch any of those P-subs i you want a faster recovery. If you feel that they sate your addiction's hunger even a bit, you should avoid them. The chaser effect might kick in too, and we know where it leads.
In time you'll be feeling fine watching some of those videos, but give your brain time. That's my opinion.

 

Anything that is artificial and not an interaction with a real life woman I would consider i p-sub sometimes we watch things unintentionally something triggering happen but that wasn’t are intent I wouldn’t count that as a p-sub but I try to steer clear of those type of programs showing half naked women

 

Welcome to a hypersexualized world.

I shall not add to the list, but say that anything can be used to fap with if one is inclined. I have fapped to regular pictures of females, so I know sexualized media is not the root of the issue yet I realize one must be diligent to guard their eyes.

 

I would add content that isn't erotic by nature, but does include sexual scenes/moments.

 

I tried to fool myself into thinking erotic writing wasn’t porn.
Sometimes I am stimulated by reading NoFap journals.

 

Stimulation is everywhere now. It's scary.
