Hey guys. I’m a 23 year old male who was addicted to p**n since he was 15. I used to watch it and jerk off every single day till the last 6 months.
6 months ago, I started NO PMO hard mode and it’s been successful. Today I realised that I had completely exactly 180 days and then the thought of it led to one thing and the next thing I knew, I was watching p**n.
After 5 minutes of watching it, I realised that I have to continue for a lifetime and closed it. But still, after 6 months of no Fap and no p**n, I ended up watching it for 5 minutes. How bad is this? How much will it affect my progress? It wasn’t anything hardcore, some softcore stuff.
Is it like cigarettes? Like a person stays 6 months away from a cigarette and then when they smoke it after 6 months, a lot of harm is done?
Well , it is bad. Because the neural pathways were weakened by 6 months of nopmo but now it’s refreshed. Although if you stay clean it will not affect you that much.
It’s so sad to see there is no way to permanently solve por* problem. We just have to evolve.
You realising just after 5 min shows your improvement. Keep it up
