Relapse or no? (filling title space here)

Hey guys,
I was just on the toilet doin my thing when a huge urge hit me and I wasn’t ready. Before I realized it I was looking up porn on my phone and starting to touch myself. I don’t know whether or not it counts as a relapse at this point, but suddenly through all the lust I was feeling, the voice in the back of my mind screamed at me and made me remember why I was fighting for this. (I would even go as far as saying it was God calling me) I got off my ass and jumped into the shower, turned it onto its coldest setting and just sat there until I cooled down and could think rationally again. I don’t know whether or not this story will help you, but I just wanted to make sure you guys knew it’s not over till it’s over. Don’t give up just because it’s going down hill. Fight until the bitter end :muscle::+1:(just making sure you understand, I didn’t cum, but I did technically fap)

Im sorry to hear you relapsed, but dont lose hope. We are all here for you. Next time an urge hits feel free to message me. Remember the opposite of addiction is not sobriety but connection. Sometimes just the act of reaching out to others can help calm our urges. I hope this helps. Love you brother.

Don’t reset your counter because there is 99% that you’ll actually relapse.
You made a mistake, analyse it, learn from it, don’t do it again.
Next time, no excuses, rewind the clock back to 0.

That’s my rule at least.
