    Its fine not to watch porn for atleast three months in orther to stop it.. but why we are not alowed to have sex or specially masturbate even once during the reboot time?? It seems strange to me that what will be the problem if I masturbate once during this three months period. What u guys think??

    Your reboot is what you want to make it. Your brain tends to reset faster by not Ming. Sometimes when people have sex or M there can be a chaser effect that happens, that can cause a person to relapse. This may not happen all the time, but it is very common. Also, while rebooting, we are trying to deprive our brains of the dopamine that it receives from PMOing. Early on in the reboot, the Ming is very closely relating to PMO and the brain may not be able to tell the difference. This also depends on the person and doesn't apply to everyone. These are my thoughts on this question. I hope that this was helpful.

    What you think of the harms of masturbation? Is that 90 days of not fapping because of its harms to heal??
     
  4. When alcoholics want to break the addictive cycle they stop drinking for 90 days.

    When gambling addicts want to break the addictive cycle they stop gambling for 90 days.

    Same for us

    Over the years the brain has been trained to react a certain way with certain stimuli. The purpose is to reset the brain by stopping all stimuli that the brain is used to and expecting to react by. You could choose to M during your reboot, however, it could take longer for the reboot to take place or cause relapses on a regular basis. I am not against Ming, it is just a matter of how you want to do your reboot and the kind of results you are looking for in the end. It is your reboot. A good website to check out is yourbrainononporn.org. They have very good info about this kind of stuff on there.

  6. PMO. They're all part of the cycle. Do one you will probably do the other. Do none, less likely to do any.

    Tnx bro.you really made a good answer.. well as for me during my reboot every time I told myself that its no matter if I jerk off once after one or two weeks. But that really made me relase and masturbate more and more besides that lead me again to porn. Its been over a year im on nofao site. But I couldnt succeed well. The longest I went without porn Was 30 days. But I alwas masturbate every one or two week Although I wanna stop masturbation forever. .

    So for you, not Ming may be the answer to make it past 30 days. You can try it. If you can make it two weeks, you can make it longer without Ming. Then when you feel you don't have a choice but to M, just make it a few more minutes or a day at a time. You could also come up with a plan of action that you can enact immediately when you start feeling triggered. This can save you precious seconds so you don't relapse. This is a tough journey and at the same time I believe you will be successful.
