    Today was hella stressful as my work has been stalled. I was very bored. I started looking at some Instagram models which led me to look at IG accounts of pornstars. Urges were getting stronger by the minute. I tried self-talk but it didn't work.
    So I opened this website and started reading various posts and then called my friend which eventually made urges to disappear. This week urges have become worse.
    But today I tried something new which I read today in someone's post. I asked myself "Why do you want this now?". I tried it a few hours ago and my urges were totally eliminated.
    I hope I can finally get rid of this parasite from my life.
    FUCK THE ZERO!

  2. I would reset my streak in this situation.
     
  3. I don't think you should reset your streak, as you didn't actually watch porn or masturbate. However, think next time ... you're going to tempt yourself if you're going on Instagram looking at girls pages. You have to help yourself.

    Sure, back years ago I'd occasionally glance through Instagram thots shilling for those sweet beta shekels, but frankling it was never even appealing enough to trigger me while on a PMO diet. But how much more clear can we be? Stop looking at girls on Instagram! Early on for me, my thought pattern went about like this: well I'm pushing myself real hard with this no PMO commitment, so I deserve to look at anything that's not strictly pornographic. No sir, keep reminding yourself you do not have any such entitlement. And every time you choose to look at any triggering material, that is relapse behavior. That doesn't mean you relapsed, you didn't, but it means your screwing up your own recovery and making things harder for yourself to boot. Never look in lust.

    Nicely put..... Looking at girls only because you have started nofap is not right.... Its just your bad habits playing with your willpower.
