By glimpses of things I just mean either sexual imagery in movies, advertisements, tv shows, etc. Its impossible to avoid all of it but does seeing it have any affect on the reboot?
I would say yes, I mean I wouldn’t think it will set you “back”. However if I catch myself eyeing something on TV that’s on, or checking out a girl in public too much, not too long after my anxiety and weird feelings set in. Like my brain recognized that I seen it, and I’m not acting out like in the past, it gets upset with me. But if you stay strong and try to quit eyeing women and of course obviously don’t MO, I think our brain will get stronger.
Yeah I don’t linger too much or fantasize, but could looking in the moment (at any sort of immodesty displayed through ads, movie trailers, tv shows, etc.) and a small release of dopamine cause any problems? (Assuming dopamine is released).
I don't think so. It depends on how you react to it. If you get some precum from seeing an ad, I don't think that'll kill your reboot. Then again, your mileage may vary.
Not at all, your brain releases dopamine as well when listening to music, does that mean we should stop listening? Try to maintain a good life avoiding pmo, after all its in the nature of the man to stare at women. The reboot is about porn and watching pixels, not looking at girls in real life
Heard that. I ask primarily because I’m in the middle of a flatline where I feel I’m experiencing a lot of brain fog and cognitive impairment, so I just wanna none of my actions or tendencies are responsible for this
I get this shit too, except my flatline came on after masturbating to porn and edging for days (which turned into weeks).
I haven’t edged at all, this has prob been my cleanest streak yet. I even uninstalled Twitter and Instagram just to minimize triggers. But I’ve felt dumb af for a little over a week now, and I havent PMO’d whatsover
