When going to bed, I allowed myself to engage in a sexual fantasy (a nasty P induced one). I didn't really stop myself because I was half-hoping it would increase the probability of a wet dream. However, I miscalculated, and I O'd while conscious from the pressure of my underwear and my pillow. By the time I realized that i was about to O, I tried to do breathing exercises to prevent it, but alas, it was ready too late. I regret my decision to fantasize about sex. I haven't had a big slip up or a relapse before today. (Please tell me I don't have to reset my counter.)
It sounds like you reached O purely through fantasy alone and that you did not physically stimulate yourself in any way either before or during orgasm, so I would not count it as masturbating. And since you say that you tried to do breathing exercises to prevent the O, I would not count it as an intentional O either. So technically you are still on the Hard Mode (no PMO) streak—no need to reset. That being said, if you intentionally mentally stimulate yourself close to O and then stop, doesn't matter that you do no M, this is still edging... So, whether you wanna count that as a reset or not is up to you—like I said, technically you are still on the Hard Mode. Also, the Hard Mode is defined as abstaining from Porn, Masturbation and intentional Orgasm (that's why we say wet dreams don't count, because they are not intentional). However, if you are trying to intentionally induce wet dream orgasm, I would argue you are not doing no–PMO Hard Mode, instead you are doing some type of altered custom mode, cause you are still intentionally trying to O; of course you can set up your own custom reboot parameters in whatever way you want, and set up "Meeting My Goals" counter instead, just don't pretend that it's NoFap Hard Mode, if you gonna try to intentionally induce wet dreams. In either case bro, looks like you are playing with fire, and even if you don't have to reset for now, if you gonna keep doing this, you will fail eventually. So I would recommend to try not to fantasize. It's fine if intrusive thoughts sometimes come into your mind on their own though, but try not to follow them and to not feed them.
