I was so happy that on my first attempt itself i could achieve a 50 day NoFap streak.The results I got were amazing.I became more motivated, started improving on my behaviuoral faults, lot of boost in my confidence and a lot more.Eventhough I started for a 41 day streak, later I extended it to 90. But sadly, today was a bad day and I couldn't resist.After relapsing I am feeling totally lost.I fear all the improvements I so will suddenly vanish.Kindly guide me....can I continue from here..or should I restart?
Hi
@NewLifeMil123
It is normal to feel discouraged, but do not lower your arms and feel you cannot do it.
This is exactly what the addicted part of your brain wants.
You know already that you can go 50 days without PMO, which is great.
Now you should set up a goal to make at leasr 51, and so on.
It is a big step if you can understand what is triggering your urges, because this will allow you to be awake and kill those urges as soon as they appear.
I recommend you to create your own "Emergency Toolbox" with readings that can be handy to read when you start feeling urges to screw up.
I can share this post with you with my own Emergency Toolbox, it helped me a lot during the first few months, i had them in my cell and read them every time I started falling down:

I wrote some tips in this post that perhaps will help you too:

You can watch some interesting videos which are also very helpful in this post:

I also suggest you to read "Breaking the Cycle" by George Collins, it is a must-read if you are serious about getting rid of this addiction.
To get more focus and feel happier with life I recommend you to start doing meditation.. I have been using an App called Headspace for the last two months which is great if you have never meditated before. The first 10 sessions are free if you want to give a try. I used to feel a bit depressed or feeling without energy to start new projects in my life, and meditation has helped me a lot with this.
Last but not least, I would strongly recommend you to take new e-course that Mark Queppet launched in his new website, called: " REFORGED MAN: Quit porn and Master Yourself-Be a Man you Admire", it is the updated version of the e-course he used to have in NoFap Academy. It is not cheap ($200) but it is totally worth it because he gives great toold to fight PMO.You can find it here:

You can also join his website called Patreon, where he posts great stuff for free every week, and also you can join the pay area to be part of his weekly video calls where you can chat with them in real life, get coaching and listen to other guys's stories and problems too. You can find it here:

I hope that all this helps you to fight this shitty addiction.
Let's keep on fighting
