Hey Guys. About 6 months ago i realized how masterbation was impacting my life in a bad way (after 18 years of consistent masterbation). Now i am on 130 days nofap but the issue is now it is getting hard to control. Yesterday, i almost lost control and opened porn sites. It was hard to not to touch myself and then i shutdown my computer. The issue is, i was "that" close to going back again and it can happen again and i might not be able to control myself. I do have sex, for years my past routine has been to masterbate after sex to get double enjoyment (which now i realized that was not the "double" enjoyment but to get satisfaction as i was addictive to masterbation). Now after sex i dont masterbate and it is creating more issues as i dont get full or not even half of the satisfaction from sex. Any idea how i can make my brain not to crave for fapping. Is it possible to control dopamine disorder? As side activities to keep myself busy, i am more social now, i go gym regularly, read books, watch movies etc.
Maybe try hardmode. I went hardmode for about 7 mts. It wasn't by choice, but I think it definitely played a major role in my recovery. This is serious and we dont need distractions. My last relapse was at 136 days. After I binged for 3 weeks, I surrendered. I not only knew, but felt that there was only one of 2 options for me. I chose life.
