Rebooting has been too easy and I'm worried

    Hello, I'm 21 years old and I've been MOing since I was 13, I don't remember when I combined MO with P but I know P since I was around 8. I am heavily addicted spending a lot of time and full nights PMOing, lately my behaviour was watching porn and playing world of warcraft at the same time, alt-tabbing 5 minutes at a time, just watching for the sake of it, just fantasies about the women I liked (who seemed more like fertility fetishes than real people)

    PMO has heavily influenced my life in a negative way, I've never put any effort in anything and I've never been motivated to do anything other than video-games and PMO, I had problems to focus, as a kid I was diagnosed ADHD but nowadays I doubt it, I feel that my focus problems as an adult are due to PMO.

    Recently I moved with my first girlfriend and continued to PMO when I had time (much less than when I was on my own "studying"), recently I discovered NoFap and I have been on it for a month as you can see.

    I've had urges but since I don't have time to be on my computer anymore I never get a chance to watch P, I fear that I will get overconfident as it has happened to others because this first 30 days have been a breeze.

    Congratulations on 30 days, that is a marvellous achievement and the perfect building block for a better future. Just don’t get complacent, always be weary that your brain could try to trick you at any time, it really is a sneaky bastard.

    Other than that just enjoy it and be proud that you’ve conquered this with relative ease so far, take it as a testament of your mental strength.

    Oh and beware the dreaded flatline, they can pop up at any point. Not everybody has them but if you do, trust me you’ll know about it

    this go around has been super easy for me too, until recently. I;m at 100+ days in my streak and I almost relapsed last night. I have no energy right now and things have gotten hard. Be lucky that it has been easy thus far because it gives you motivation to keep going strong. Right now I feel like crap. But since my streak is so long I extra motivation to work through this temporary lull.

    Thank you and @Kexas23, yes I have already informed myself about flatlines, if anything I want it now so I can get my mind off sex, currently struggling with invasive thoughts, you can read more here, I hope after/during the flatline I will be able to control my mind better
