    Probably been covered in previous threads but as a new member I just wanted to gauge the views of my fellow fapstronauts on the issue? My personal opinion is that edging should be avoided at all costs when undertaking nofap, here's why;
    Many a times have I relapsed from edging even though I told myself, "It's JUST edging". But really I think it's just the brain trying to rationalize, I don't doubt that there are experienced members out there who can excercise total control and restraint but it takes an Immense amount of discipline to do this.
    The day before I joined this forum I was on day day 30 and I came this close to relapsing due to "edging", but something in my mind said "just stop" and I did. Maybe this was down to past experience as my brain subconciously taught me to learn from past mistakes... who knows. But I have since resolved to completely refrain from this activity so long as I continue this journey.

    Edging is considered to be even worse because it keeps your dopamine levels crazy high, therefore all those damaged nerve circuits are constantly under pressure which makes it impossible for them to recover. Don't edge.

    It's not called edging for nothing.

    Eventually it will destroy our PMO-free time.

    Guaranteed!

    Play fire, get burned.

    Still playing with your dopamine, which is bad. Also makes you cocky thinking you can get away with it if you don't O. Eventually you will want to go further.

    I used to edge all the time when I was or wasn't trying NOFap, when I was edging my mind rational that if I don't cum than it still counts, but if I do cum than it will be a reset day following.
    I'm the first one to agree, Edging is bad!!!!
