    Congrats on the full week down!! :)

    It's great to hear that you are allowing your life to improve in the various areas. I would just suggest a word of caution as you do this..

    I'll share my own story to help explain where im coming from... Since having success in abstaining from masturbation and porn for the past 7.5 weeks, i have started to try to implement improvements in other areas of my life like sleep pattern, exercise, diet, skincare, limited youtube etc. But my results in these areas fluctuates a lot and some days i do well, other days are a complete failure. But i am moving in the right direction and im starting to see some overall changes in these other areas. However, even within my inconsistencies in these other areas, my consistency with my nofap goals remains 100% firm. I cannot give in to my lustful desires for even just one day.

    I believe that conquering masturbation and porn addiction are SO important as they affect so many areas of our lives including our relationships with others and with God. It also has a huge impact on your emotional health and confidence and authenticity. Creating good habits of self-control with how we conduct ourselves sexually is such an important foundation for establishing good habits in many areas of our lives. But i think it is important to not conflate all your goals as having equal importance to your nofap goals.

    So i just wanted to give you a word of encouragement as you start to introduce other goals. That is great to hear and im really happy for you. But if you stuff up in the other areas, dont throw in the towel completely and allow yourself to wreck your nofap streak too. Make sure you continue to keep your sexual self-control as your top priority in all things :)

    Keep up the awesome work mate!

    its so good when you plan your day as you are not letting yourself to be free all the time and thinking what to do next as if urges come on that time when you are free then bro their is high chances that you willl relapse . so, pre plan everything and don't conclude things in your dto do list which are not valuable to you

    Day 9:

    start to settle my new sleeping routine.
    Today I would say: being selfish to accomplish your mission is a good thing. So, I am going to reduce interactions between me and other friends and enjoy building my future.

    NoFap brings you new strong attitude!

    Thanks @RareFlares
    I was almost to relapse tho because of an attractive, girl on Instagram. She was hunting and couldn’t resist but I didn't masturbate! Any recommendations!

  15. Relapsing is sometimes part of the process, try and use it to work out what you can do differently next time.
    And be kind to yourself.
    You can do this!

    Thanks for being honest with us here.
    And for getting straight back into fighting PMO again. That is really great to see.

    What steps led up to your relapse? What steps can you take to prevent relapsing in this way again?
    By identifying the triggering factors and then determining to cut them out, you can take something positive out of this bad situation.

    So you managed to achieve a streak of 10 days. That is a good achievement.
    I challenge you to double it and get to 20 days complete or 3 weeks clean. Are you up for the challenge?? :)
    I know you can do it mate!

    @RareFlares Mate! Believe me I had tears when reading your message. How supportive you are!

    I am up for the challenge, yeah!

    factors: I had some urges so I started talking to a girl on instagram. Then, I started doing that shit...

    Next time I will be more in Control.
