    On my every nofap reboot streak, i forget how horrible i used to be while i used to fap, by the time streak reaches 7-10 days.
    Is it like that because my brain tricks me?
    Please suggest something, i don't wanna lose this streak now.
    I need to complete at least 90+ days for recovery from this addiction.

    It’s not easy. I’m no my 20th real reboot right now.

    First you have to make the decision to want to stop. Like sit down and think of all the reasons you need to stop. And all the bad stuff that happens when you don’t.

    Second, you need a plan. A plan to cope with triggers, accidental views, pains, etc.

    Third you need to build some good habits. Staying offline, exercising, reading, etc. When you take care of yourself you won’t feel the urges as bad.

    Fourth you take it hour by hour and day by day. Don’t think about 90 days—just make it 90 minutes and then 90 more.

    A hobby helps. So do cold showers and reading.

    Yes, I think your mind does play tricks on you.

    I suggest writing out a list of all the bad consequences of porn. Make the list very detailed. Include every terrible thing. Then every day during your during your reboot and any time you feel like you might fail, take this list out and read it.

    Is there any way by which you can Consciously remind yourself that?
    Some considerable failure that occurred, because you sat PMOing.

    It’s An addict brain, it will act erratically on disruption of normal frequency of stimulation.
