I personally would not consider this a "bad" relapse as the stimulus in this case was a real woman rather than a fantasy/digital one. The problem for many of us is that we get so used to the porn superstimulus that we can't even get it up with real women.
HAHAHAHA thank you that is good advice and something I would normally do, except I am 19 and this woman is 30+ loooool
You make a very good point, at least porn is out of the picture. The thing is I am looking to stop masturbation and orgasm as well for now, I will not accept the fact that I struggle to go 1 month without doing/having something - that points to an addiction
Checking in back up to day 6, little to no urges, could be a flatline although it's always like this at the start for me. Not complaining it makes quitting all the easier! Keep on going brothers/sisters!
Hey guys, Sadly, today a few minutes ago I relapsed. I really had no urge, I was not bored nor I was lonely. The reason that I fapped was "to much happiness". I was so happy that I was reaching 50days and this was the fuel to my desire. "You've reached 50days! You are in control! Just mastubate once, btw, you have 2 lives in 180 day challenge, just use one." My desire told me. So I ended up relapsing. I don't have any particular feeling right now, I'm not happy nor am I sad. I feel nothing, I'm empty. I'm gonna reset my counter, pick myself up and will rise again stronger. P.S. just thinking if I hadn't fapped then I had 130days more to go, kinda depresses me but so they say, "it's not a Challenge if it doesn't hurt."
3 weeks! The days fly by at the moment. That last relapse didn't set me back that much. I'm just really enjoying life. I feel more alive/more human everyday. This thread really helped me, i'm not gonna fail this time, i'm gonna complete this challenge! Stay strong everybody!
Been there man! But if you don't binge i feel like one minor relapse is not gonna set you back that much, offcourse your days are but the progress is way more important. Just keep your head up and don't let this little bump in the road effect your Journey, you're gonna beat this addiction! Look at it from the bright side, now your desire can't tell you anymore that you have 2 tries at this challenge! Haha let this one count man!
