    i am currently at 6th day of my nofap journey to a 90 day goal. Last time i had relapsed on phone sex with my girlfriend who is at different state..i have not shared my nofap goal yet with my gf.. I don’t want it too coz I don’t want to be judged based on my previous addiction..will it be ok to edge on phone to my goal? If no, can you guys give some tips how to handle my situation so i can meet my 90 day goal?
     
  2. Many would argue that edging is, in some ways, worse. The argument is that you're constantly allowing your brain to release dopamine without actually ever ending the cycle, thus increasing the craving substantially. It'd be like an alcoholic getting tipsy, then continuing to drink for hours to maintain being tipsy. Would his alcohol problem get better or worse after doing that?

    My advice would be some practical prevention methods:
    1) work on your self-discipline by doing things like taking cold showers. Even dieting and working out takes a great deal of discipline so I'd also recommend those. The theory is that by increasing your mental fortitude in other areas, you make yourself stronger when it comes to all temptations in general.
    2) Try using a snap band. It's simply a band on your wrist that you snap each time you're tempted. Pain is not the goal, but to literally "snap" your brain out of the cycle of temptation.

    I believe that orgasms due to a significative other one are completely legit.

    Yeah, edging from significant other seems legit but will my brain be able to reboot after 10 years of completely abusing my dopamine pathway from porn..i think my brain needs atleast 90 days(might even require longer) to reboot..so i want ways to avoid edging from phone..and to effectively deal with my girlfriend..

    I wouldn't do it over the phone though. Doing it person-to-person is not the same as just relying on sound and possibly visionary sensations.
