Well i recently join in a whatsapp group to pick up stickers but some of them i mean 293 like 2 or 3 are porn, but the group itself isnt about that kind of stickers, the admins banned those people but i saw them, thats the problem, i felt ashamed but one part of my self really wanted to look at those, a few seconds more but i delete them from my own view, and i didnt download them, and somehow im questioning my self if i am relapsing or something... But that makes me wonder, when i complete the 90 days, and idk, see a porn pic in the street or in the internet or again in a sticker from whatsapp what would i do? How am i supposed to react, to feel?
I mean you decide on yourself if it is a relapse. In my opinion if it was unintentional then I find it to be not a relapse.
You should feel good. You’re going to see stuff that triggers you. Not letting it send you into a binge is a win. You did not relapse.
No relapse there. There are continual external triggers every day. I am back to looking away if I see an attractive woman when I'm out and about since I feel vulnerable. What you don't see won't hurt you. And I can continue to go about my normal business. But in the case of the external ones, it can't be avoided - it seems to be everywhere these days. My eyes get drawn in and if I start staring I have to wake myself up and stop. Also don't put yourself at risk with these social media things that may only have a small percentage of stimulating stuff but it's there, and you'll have to deal with it. For me I also have an internal trigger that is like a cycle of so many days, and then my addictive brain starts with the wanting, teasing, taunting and lying. It's easy to fight after a relapse when you feel bad, it's the days down the road that are the real challenge.
You didn't go looking for it. You didn't act on it. You recognized that it could be a trigger if you focused on it and you did not. Be proud of yourself.
Thanks man, i guess so, but i cant lie to anyone here that i really got exited after see that, thats why i felt relapsing, i know thats incorrect, that you want to look at that content again but you cant, its not correct and feeling exited makes it even worse.
I feeling you bro, i once relapse, but wasnt fully intentional but that was weeks ago, and i decided to apologize my self, not comite the same error and focus on the goal, i repeat it to my self, an ejaculation would cost me everything, i would lost all for what i fought (didnt watch P or M but i was close). Being a virgin in this whole mess its very tentative.
No because it was unintentional. If you actively searched for porn than yes I would consider that a relapse.
No, this is not a relapse,we call this triggering.But if you're going to be exposed to this kind of ridiculous content, you might consider leaving that group.
It isnt , today also a friend send to me some images of naked women and a video of porn , i didnt know he was going to send me that shit , so i looked at it , but it was unintentional and i immediatly turn it off so no relapse
