This is kinda urgent. My urges are killing me

Alright, it’s day 38 of nofap for me and the urges hit peak today. My exams started last week and I have to write today’s exam in 3 hours. The problem is that the urges haven’t been this bad… like every 5 minutes. Literally every video I have ever seen flashes before me and I’m constantly aroused. I can’t concentrate on studying. Again my exams is in 3 hours. My brain is trying it’s best to make me fapnand I’m barely holding on. I have this burning sensation in my head and everytime I overcome an urge, it gets worse. I’m on the verge of considering a relapse, but I don’t know if it would help either, plus I don’t wanna lose all my hardwork. What do y’all think I should do?

Get yourself out of the house or call your friend. Just let the time pass.

Keep killing your mind until it says Yes, You are the Boss
My Master, What is your order ?
:blush:
Reflect on the consequences of a Relapse & then responsibly do what you wanna do. :v:

  1. Go for a run
  2. Go for a walk
  3. Take a cold shower
  4. Meditate
  5. Accept the urge in the sense that it’s there, just stay out of it’s contents
  6. Make food

Honestly that’s what kept me going. I knew I’d regret relapsing so I held on to it. I almost peeked. But then I closed the tabs

My exams weren’t that great. I had urges during my exams aswell. I couldn’t concentrate all the time. But I held on and now I’m feeling much better. The urges are still there but much less and not as strong as before. Thanks for all the advice guys😁

You can try talking to your female friends, it helps. Like a casual talk, getting to understand them better as a person. For me it helps in on day 20🙂

Honestly, I’ve never done that in my life. I have a lot of female friends, bit never called em up for a casual talk. I always call people with a purpose. Even my best friends. I don’t usually call anyone for leisure. I text. But never called. Does texting make a difference?

Buddy best working one method…

Keep a bottle of hot waterrr… When evr u feel urge even when writing exammm, just sip it… Feel the earm water …

I handled my urges it works

Hot water? Hmmm that’s new! You know what? Ima try that next😬

We’re introverts, we always prefer texting to talking xD
Talk mate, it helps a lot. Don’t worry, if the other person is busy, they’ll tell you. Otherwise they’d be happy to talk @GOVIND-19
Especially if you’re on nofap you naturally become an extrovert.
I was an introvert for so long my family is still getting surprised at the extrovert-y stuff I do :joy:

Oh dude I’m not an introvert at all. I’ve never been an introvert. I’ve always been an extrovert. I hate being alone. I constantly want companionship. If I’m with friends or people in general I never stop talking. But it’s with the phone man. As I said before, I only make contact with friends only with a purpose mostly. Unless they are like my best friends who we talk casually with. I talk casually with my best friends almost everyday. But the girls are part of the bigger gang you know. Not the innermost circle. Inner circle is full of boys. I don’t text girls unnecessarily either. Never been that kinda person. But I can talk to them in person for hours no probs

Next time go run. If you lack strength and willpower go gain it. If you can’t take a cold shower you won’t resist when the time comes. Idleness will destroy even the best intentions. Good luck.

To be honest, i also don’t talk without purpose, like i will ask something about study related bcoz im student, i will ask have you done this, this is difficult , how you did this? Like that , you can start conversation like that. If she is like normal human being, she will reply and if she doesn’t that means choose another one. I personally have a very small friend circle, to whom i can talk anything. With other people i don’t talk , i talk less cuz in flow i know i will say something nonsense that will make me and them uncomfortable and i know they won’t understand. So with girls i will start like work related talk, then ask her like you like movies, which genre, can you recommend one? Like that. I did that and it’s pretty good trick, iam not an expert so…

It’s an introvert character. Now I am comfortable taking on the phone, but still more comfortable talking face to face.

Introvert or extrovert, people always appreciate it if you call them up.
