Playing but not ejeculating?

Read up on edging. It's worse than MO. Don't do it, it will only harm your progress. I can tell from experience.

 

Hard mode may be an alternative for you.

 

We'll what are you fantisising about when you do pleasure yourself? Allow your brain to heal. Hands UP STEP AWAY FROM THE PENIS. Go hard mode it may be easier for you. By the way congratulations on your progress thus far.

 

Your tracker says "Without Porn", so with that, no, you didn't. If you are trying to abstain from porn and masturbation, then yes, you did. You described what you did as masturbating. What you did was masturbating. Therefore, it is a relapse.

 

Regardless of whether you consider it relapsing or not, it’s a slippery slope. I’ve been there, and it always resulted in a full on relapse eventually.

 

Sometimes we have a problem to accept the very easy things. The NO-PMO-journey is much more comfortable by "no touching your penis". Really - try to accept it.

 

Edging is worse than PMO. It tricks you into thinking you're doing well by not going all the way.
