  1. Shit guys I relapsed. What a moron I am. The urges were quite bad this evening. I now have 1.5 strikes. Like hard boiled said, I can't fail a challenge I set up!! I'm seriously doing this now guys, my attempt was not good enough. Don't let your brain use my relapse as an excuse for you to relapse, it seriously isn't worth it.

    From now on:
    My laptop or tablet will not be present in my room at all. If I require a laptop for studies then I go to a library or simply study in a "less private" room.

    I'm really sorry guys, I've let you down, but I'm taking this thing even more seriously than I did last time!
     
  2. Brother let's get back up and keep moving forward! Do you have an AP?

  3. I actually don't. I did think about it at one stage

  4. Well done for not fully relapsing. Maybe only let yourself go on social media when you're around other people? A lot of people say delete social media completely but I think in this day and age you need it, but yeah maybe limit your use.

    I noticed what triggers my relapse is not porn I can resist it its actually the Psubs like youtube facebook or googling pics of your favourite stars you see a girl or actress in skimpy cloth it triggers you to rub and if you indulge more and edge even if you dont fap that day ..it will make you fap in the coming days by clouding your mind. The mind actually bargains with me like" just fap and relief yourself" or "else you wont be productive enough and you can't concentrate on studies" and eventually I succumb to its devious ways. The other reason i fap is when I feel low and directionless about life or simply bored, these are the stages where one is most vulnerable.

    Last year I was getting addicted to sex stories the filth and cheating and all that feel of reality that it was true used to turn me on a lot way more than porn because it was new for me and I knew that shit doesn't happen in real life. I tell you these sex stories will destroy your ability to trust your partner and you will always look from the eye of a reader and it was gross. I knew this could affect me so before I got myself addicted to it I made a pact with myself that if I ever read a sex story again those events will happen in my life and that will be a nightmare, since last year I have never read a Indian sex story again and I did the same with cigratte and I have not smoked since last year. I know I should do the same thing for PMO but I never felt it would harm me until recently when i discovered it gave me PIED and DE.
    My goal is no PMO for atleast 3 months and to feel disgust for porn like i feel disgust for sex stories. The goal is to find a reason stronger than your urge and it can be fear it can be love for your SO(like mine I want to be the best lover for her) and it can be love for life goals and yourself. Find your reason brothers.

    Joining a little late (hope that's all right), but I'm in. I've been doing pretty well for the past couple months, but I've had a rough week with a lot of backsliding. Looking to get the motivation going again.
     
  9. There is no late, anyone can join at anytime :) Good luck and try to post daily if you can
     
  10. That's very good advice, having a reason for doing NoFap is the strongest motivator.
     
  11. Talked with my mom today about porn.That was tough but I've found yet another reason to fight.Forward march to 20 days my friends.
     
  12. Wow well done! You're doing so good right now, what's your highest streak?
     
  13. Thanks! my highest streak WAS 8 days.right now its 10 :)

    First day went well. Being more productive helped, as it always does. Hope everyone else is doing well too.
     
  16. Had mild urges, felt a little down today and as a result my school work has been incredibly slow. Glad to hear all is well @jsg

    Had some terrible urges today. But having to go to work has helped me a lot in overcoming them - as did my cold bath. After two weeks, I’ve noticed that more women are smiling or laughing when I speak to them.
