Does anyone else struggle with...

I'm only struggling with PMO but I feel that anal stimulation would be a lot like edging which can lead to PMO. I would try to stop that as well. Anything that you are doing to yourself that is pleasurable should probably be considered as edging. I would stay away from doing that. Edging for me was what always drove me to a relapse.

 

Mmmm nope.... But I think any kind of sexual self stimulation interferes with the sexual healing of the rebooting process. Try to stop that behavior if you're prone to relapses.

 

For some reason there is a blank when I look at this and it's after the word "fight" in your head post and I don't want to post something that may not be on topic. Based on what others have commented I think I can help but I just want to make sure. Can someone tell me what he is fighting besides PMO.

 

He is anal stimulating himself reaganite.

 

Ill admit I have considered it sometimes and I really don't know why. When I'm clean and not giving into temptation the idea is instantly rejected, but when I give into temptation the idea doesn't seem that crazy. I've never tried only fantasied about it, and also is something I am trying to overcome now and not fantasize about it.

As others have said refraining from any self stimulation is true because that is the equivilant to M. And will lead to PMO.

The thing you have to ask yourself when you are clean and not being tempted or shamed of giving in.
Is this something I really want to try, or is this just my addiction.

For me it is part of my addiction how PMO has curupted my mind but you may not see it that way and that's okay. But still I would stay away from it and treat it just like PMO.

 

Reaganite is right, what you think is hot or something you want to do may not actually be what is exciting to you if you had reframed from porn for your life. Porn has corrupted all of our minds on what we think is hot. All the number one videos our there are usually pretty far from the normal. And the weirdest thing that most of us here think is hot, whether we know it our not, is watching people have sex. Not having sex but watching people. Sex goes like this, there is intimate touching and kissing, foreplay, and the actual act of sex is not terrible long as porn has lead you to believe. Porn wants you to think that you need to have intercourse for at least 30 mins which is far from the truth. So, porn has a lot of male enhancement pills or longer lasting pills, all of which probably don't work. Sorry for ranting, what I am going for is until you are healed any sort of stimulation should be avoided, porn is lying to what is hot. Stay strong and do something else when the urge hits you, take a cold shower. Sorry for the long text.

 

Wow, i relate to this and it is very very embarassing but i hope that i can share on this platform and be given support. i had a 52 day no pmo streak and i broke very hard. i paid two girls to use a strapon on me, i enjoyed it and came very hard. since then i have been struggling a lot to get back on the right path.

 

Ill admit I have considered doing that and it's something that temps me, right now I'm trying to keep a hold on myself before I make a morale and do something I really didn't want to do.

 

Well thanks for telling me I didn't know it was hidden. Posting from my phone.
Thanks tho that will help in the future.

 

I'm glad you posted it. Reading other people's stories helps me make everything clear and this has helped me.
I wish everyone the best as we fight these temptations together.

 

Perhaps you could ask your girlfriend to do this to you rather then experimenting on your own.

 

i'm also into anal stimulation...I bought myself a dildo to use it on me, but I threw it away now. I'm always very embarassed to when I would relapse while I'm using a dildo... It's harder to abstain from that, than from PMO.

 

Nothing too stupid to post here. Thanks for posting, Gilbert.

 

Even I did that at one point. You get this...degraded feeling afterwards...at least I did. I stopped doing that before I came across Nofap, but I had been doing it for almost a year at that point. Porn definitely warps the mind..I know I would've never done that if not for the things that I had seen.

 

In my opinion there is no harm in anal stimulation either within a healthy relationship or as part of a generally healthy sex life. Despite what all the fools say, it doesn't mean you're gay!

However within the rebooting process it is no different to edging. Possibly even worse since you're directly stimulating your prostate.

I have owned toys in the past but have thrown them all away. Not because I'm embarrassed that anal stimulation feels good but they were associated with an unhealthy humiliation fetish.
