    Today I was on a website without an ad blocker because I reinstalled my OS and it was a porn ad there. I looked on it in about 1/4 of a second and then automatically closed the tab.
    Now I can't forget about this ad and I get flashbacks about it. I tried to hit myself on the head and balls and tried nofap emergency, but nothing helped. I am just sitting and trying to do something, to not thing about that...

    Have someone had this type of urges?
    What has helped you?

    Hey man take it easy it’s just your brain craving porn perfectly normal focus on other things and assure yourself you won’t relapse you’ve got goals and you won’t slow down.

    TL;DR (Write to yourself about NoFap goals and read it when there're urges.)

    Did you write a note to yourself at the start of NoFap, PornIsTheNewCocaineOf20Century? If you didn't, do it now. Once you have, read it, over and over and over and over again. It should include your goals, personal thoughts about PMO like its negativity. Just go all out. It can be written anywhere, like on NoFap forums or on a piece of paper you'll keep. A lot of rebooters recommend this because it's extremely motivating.

    I saw a super hot girl on Tinder that swiped me back and it was bad for a week not as bad in this second week should be better by 3rd week I hope. And I’m in a relationship wtf I know.

    It’s those flash thoughts that get us in trouble ... pull us down. I did 365+ days no porn and I can say the flash thoughts do go away to a safe point.

    It takes time ... lucky us there’s plenty of it so go get some!!

    Use some of that tine to delete tinder. Try to appreciate what you have, not mourn what you don't and can't have!

    I did, but it doesn't help me so much. I prefer to stand in front of the mirror and talk to myself why I do this and the benefits of nofap. Anyway, the flashbacks are over ;)

    I would say that the best thing to do is probably to get a sponsor or accountability partner that you can call and talk to (not text or email) in person. That is, if you don't already have one. It sounds from your post like you don't. If you don't, I HIGHLY suggest getting one or both. If you do, use them for the help you need!
