I have been doing the NoFap for about 2months now. The best streak I built was 18 days . I felt good , confident, and was attracting women. Then I went 8 days and relapsed with one day PMO binge. Then 2 days later I relapsed again and now I am back to Day 1. I feel so horrible right now but am not going to give up . Let's make it a NoFap December !
Learn from your mistakes, and then toss that guilt/shame out the window and keep moving forward! Focus on the success you want to see in your future, not the failures in your past, and you will go far. Or, better yet, just focus on something else entirely for a while. You're doing great. An 18 day streak is impressive, for me, so keep on keepin on, brother.
I can't count the number of times I've screwed up this past year, but I'm finally climbing back up myself. I, too, would usually follow the same pattern of relapse more or less. Don't give up, and get angry about the shitty feeling. Use it as fuel for motivation next time your brain tries to trick you into any part of PMO- and remember how shitty the hangover is. For me, I try to keep a note on my phone with all the reasons to NOT pmo, most of them being biological as those seem to scare me away from PMO more than anything, like the loss of zinc etc.
Never been happier to get back to Day 4. I respect it this time around. Yesterday I had some urges but weathered the storm. It just feels good to be off that lull hangover feel right after a relapse. I even looked like crap today but spoke with a girl for about 5 minutes today at the gas station.
I feel like shit today . It’s day 0 what got me turned on was looking at Twitter nudes and videos then I stopped and fap to a girl that I might date
