Hey man,
I would say that its not relapsing if you do it daily!!
The technique I use to stay off the D is to picture myself jerking off to this fantasy and picturing myself being miserable after a moment of pleasure.
Then I think whether I am this weak and pathetic as to jerk off to find pleasure? And the answer is always No and “Come on dude, you are better than this” and sometimes “PATHETIC” in voice of Creedy from V for Vendetta.
Basically I am using my ego and honor for a good thing and that’s what makes me strong.
I choose to be horny, hungry and honorable rather than being humiliated in my own eyes. I look into my eyes in mirror and feel confidence where I always felt guilt and shame.
Talk to yourself man, believe me it helps!
