I'm done torturing my mind with anxiety doubts for unconsciously relapsed like reading sex story, getting erection feel good count relapse? That's technically what i have been throughout this whole nofap journey. I had enough mental tortured. Thanks for everything.
I think your biggest problems is taking this TOO seriously. I'm not saying we shouldn't be serious about this, but you're making it impossible on yourself. You can't count EVERYTHING as a relapse. Okay look at me 1 and a half years in. I haven't watched professional porn since October of 22, but about 6 or 7 months ago a girl I know sent me a homemade video of her having sex with her boyfriend. I watched it, but I don't count it as a relapse. I did not fantasize on it or masturbate to it. I've had girls tell me sex stories, same deal. Not a relapse. If I come across an incredibly erotic scene in a book I'm reading I'm not counting that as a relapse. Everyone may be different, but a relapse for me is going to a porn site or some kind of digital stimulation and masturbating to it. And even if it happens one time It's not necessarily a relapse. Binging would really be a relapse. Some might say I'm too easy on myself, but you are certainly too HARD on yourself.
If you want to give up something, why not give up your pmo habit completely? If reading certain things makes you feel like you are torturing yourself, well stop reading that kind of stuff. I don't read, watch or listen to any kind of sexual stimulating stuff and I enjoy my inner peace. I just don't need it any more.
I have already giving up everything... For years i have been reading sex stories or sex related topics like " best position to sex with a girl big booty" or stand comedy saying stuff sexuals,.. Like it never urge to me pmo or lead to pmo... Sadly my anxiety been out of control recently, i started doubt every little things. I never pay attention how read sexual stuffs count as relapse... It's an endless loop of triggers and doubts of anxiety. So technically i feel like giving up.
Can you tell something more about your anxieties? What are you afraid of? Have you been scared all of your life? Or did it enter later in your life?
Anxiety always been with me since day 1. Technically I don't want to relapse cause u have own specific goals about nofap, im 23s never have girlfriend and virgin... Nofap urge me to have a girlfriend to be honest, so i can orgasm in natural ways. And yes I'm afraid of relapse
Lol no... Fear of relapse just happened like couple months ago. And i already did nofap and stop pmo long time ago
Well then why should you relapse if the results are very bad for you. Should be a very easy decision...no?
I'd just like to say, no matter what, you get to choose the parameters of your nofap journey. Shame, guilt, and fear are the biggest triggers for relapse. You are strong. You wouldn't be on here if not. You get to choose to be the best version of you, but never forget to show the worst version of you that they deserve love too.
