    So I was diagnosed with a bad sinus infection and told to stay home and rest. This is a problem, since one of the best ways to deal with urges is to fill the day with activity.

    Also, I have been told to take hot showers. Which is also counter to a good technique to deal with urges: cold showers.

    I am between a rock and a hard place. I am really close to fapping but want to get my illness better. Writing this had helped. Any words of encouragement are welcome.

    Hey, man! Hang in there. I don't know how strong this illness is, but you need to be very aware of your intentions every single second. Observe yourself in case, you are gradually led to fapping.

    On the practical side, eliminate any access to Internet for as long as this illness stands. Get a book to read and some markers to paint to stay engaged.

    I haven't been seriously sick for years, so I haven't experienced this challenge before. So, if you really make it till the end without relapsing, I'd like to shake your hand... Don't worry I haven't masturbated for 20-something days. lol

    But seriously, you are being tested very harshly right now. But I can't see it but a gift if you make it. It's going to be a walk in the park if you get through it afterwards. Remember that it's good that you have made this post; that means you are aware of some premature intention to relapse. And this is the only way you will be able to avoid it. It's good that you're afraid...

    Stay strong and update us, brother (after you get well; no access to internet, remember?).
