I have been doing Nofap for a while now and just can't get past 2 weeks (my best). I had a great streak going (about 10 days) but I relapsed, and ever since I have been relapsing every couple days because of spring break. I have been at home all day for the past week, except for a gym visit every couple days. I starting using cold showers as well and had some success but relapsed a couple hours ago. I am still super hopeful that I can get past this problem plaguing my life, but i need some new strategies to combat the urges, Any tips?
2 week mark is the absolute hardest at least for me. I might try colder showers too now. But tips I’ve heard from other people are: — waking up and getting up right away — placing phone or laptop far away or hidden from you when going to bed — keeping busy and not being alone — meditating or repeating reason for doing this, to yourself or out loud Hope this helps! Stay hopeful; you can be free from this
Welcome! I'm glad you're here. My suggestion is to take time to explore this site; learn, and make a detailed plan for how you're going to combat this. It's not a matter of a little effort or a small change. I hope you keep coming back.
