Day 33

Today I nearly crossed the event horizon. I just barely managed to resist the urge to fap. Up until now it has been pretty smooth sailing.

Now tell me lads, if I come to a point where I no longer have the will to carry on with nofap, what is the most graceful way to fail?

Fapping without any porn or visual stimuli? And then continuing not viewing any porn? What would become of one's nofap streak then? Would it be downgraded to a noporn streak that continues from your nofap streak? I feel like there needs to be a serious discussion about this.

People say that porn is the primary issue with fapping, and fapping without porn is much less damaging. Without porn, people would certainly fap much less because how often can you really fap without any lewd stimuli? Certainly not multiple times per day like the porn viewer.

Therefore I propose that if you absolutely must fail, don't go full relapse and fap to porn, because all is not lost yet. You've still got your noporn streak going.

>what is the most graceful way to fail?

It would be trying your best to nofap but failing your streaks so many times that you use your negative emotions about it to push on your streaks ever further.

Basically, your failure(s) must become a resource for your success. Otherwise it would be not graceful.

You should stop focusing on the semantics so much; it reminds me of the problems I had earlier when starting out. If you allow yourself to compromise even slightly, then further compromise is an inevitability, not a choice.

I know I sound like I have a stick up my ass, but you should be asking yourself how to succeed, not how to fail best.

If you're used to fapping with porn, fapping will inevitably lead you right back to porn. I spent months feeding myself this bullshit about the "best way" to relapse after breaking my ~250 day streak. Don't delude yourself, man.

My advice is, make a big change in your habits for the next couple of days. Stay off the computer entirely if you need to. That should buy you enough time until this batch of urges subsides.

First you fap without anything, then to clothed women, then "classy nudes", then solo cam whores, then softcore, then you're back watching "regular" porn.

I was thinking the same thing tbh, seems like a slippery slope.

But my original question is if you absolutely must fap, would it not be better to not fap to anything than to fap to porn?

I'm not planning on giving up just yet, I really want to hit the 90 day meme.

Hey OP here I'm going to try pic related. I'm suppose to not shitpost for a week so I'll see you guys next week.

This. Focus on the positive. If you dwell on how to relapse you’ll be thinking about fapping too often.

Your brain is trying to trick you. In fact, there is no situation where you "absolutely must fap", short of having a gun to your head. I've had to deal with this before, and you'll inevitably relapse if you let yourself believe relapses are inevitable. Every relapse is preventable, and it's just a matter of figuring out how to prevent it and mustering the necessary willpower.

Hey you faggots I'm back.

Just came to update so you guys don't think I gave up. I haven't fapped and the urges died down.
