Can't control myself.

    Hello guys, I'm trying to overcome PMO since March, and my longest streak was 7 days. I started going to the gym and am trying to be more social. When I get the urges, I play videogames (it really halps me, because it totally distracts me), but I can't always do this (and they don't always help tho). When I get urges to watch porn or fap, I become uncontrollable. The part of me that will say to stop and do something just turns off and I can't do anything. I can't say 'No' to myself. Cold showers, reading books or watching disgusting vids don't help. How to kill the urges in my case? Thanks.

    Hey there!

    Been in that situation before. Here's something that helps me out...

    You need to really think about why you are doing it. This is for you, to feel better, to fix an issue that you are having, ...

    Once you trigger in on that one important reason why you are doing it for you, put little encouraging notes in your place... on the bathroom mirror, fridge door,, next to a clock... Any places where you would end up seeing it once in a while.

    The notes should remind you why you are doing it, that it is important for you. With that mindset, it will get easier.

    However, I definitely understand where you coming from.

    If it is definitely too hard to resist the urges, although it is a little extreme and "out there", how about investing in a nice custom "chastity cock cage" (google it)? Place the key somewhere not easily accessible, or give it to your partner if you have one...

    The difficulty in having to remove the cage in order to PMO/MO might just be enough to stop you...

    See ya!

    Keeping yourself distracted is the best way to avoid urges.
    Don't stay in your room for too long, be with your friends and family instead. Boredom and loneliness leads you to relapse.

    You can can find plenty of motivation on nofap. Reading success stories on here gave me that extra burst to commit to no PMO.

    Believe in yourself, and remind yourself that you're on a mission to better yourself.

    I would also advise you to reduce your time on your pc or any other device.

    Keep it up!
