Is fantasizing bad for rebooting

Dude, by thinking of girls(in explicit way) you are letting your brain produce dopamine.Once your brain produce dopamine it will ask for more and then more which will surely lead to relapse .You don't want this to happen,do you?
Stay strong.!

 

So fantasizing is a relapse?

 

It's not a relapse as such (at least not in my own opinion), but it's not ideal - and I would avoid it at all costs.

For example, I stopped 10 days ago and since then I have made sure I have had no sexual thoughts whatsoever for longer than 10 seconds. If a though comes into my head about doing anything with a girl, I banish it right away out of my mind...

Doing that has been what's enabled me to actually reach 10 days... Because before the thoughts would always ultimately lead to a full-blown relapse. Maybe not immediately, but it would always be the root cause.

 

Yeah, I have the same problem as yours. I kept fantasizing hoping to have wet dreams, I have beginning to realize that it is not good at all for the reboot.

 

Have same problem. I've never fantasized on porn but sometimes about real girls.
And it's not good for reboot for sure.

 

I have been doing the same. Almost every night in bed fantasize about girls i know and create some very sexual fantasies just to know my dick is still alive. i thought I had read it was good for the reboot but Im starting to believe it isnt.

 

Watching P is kinda like fantasizing if you think about it, so the reverse is probably true too

 

Try not to fantasize, especially unhealthy fantasies too.

 

Fantasizing is only another form of porn. It can be called as mental porn or mind fapping. You need to stop it anyhow, else I don't see a point in going on nofap.

 

Replace your fantasies with other healthy behavior.

If you catch your self fantisizing get up do something else.

Also if your fantasies are wrong or taboo play them out in your mind to their eventual negative end and then focus on that.

Overall fantasies can’t be stopped. Replaced or altered yes. I’ve been quit from p and m for over two months now and my fantasies are getting way less frequent and more controllable.

 

Meditation will be a significant factor in helping you overcome fantasies.
