remember you r not addict from first day of rebooting(best of all)

Do or die

Respected Member
First step is to accept you are an addict but you always fail because you fill u r addict  in rebooting schedule. i mean that in rebooting feel you are a rebooter now and rebooter keep track of all its urges and defeat it till not come again......means don't get ready to fail again..without it be ready to defeat urges

i mean that , don't think more about one or two days of reboot. bcz your more thinking is only one thing that gives u relapse. Then what to do in reboot ? . Follow ur shedule of net access , be confident and keep in mind that now u r not an addict u r a rebooter person . and u have responsibility to reboot early and give ur valuable guidance to our new nofappers . I know this my thinking is not applicable to all types of rebooters but in my reboot life it is a best thing to me which helped me more.

plz if try it , be real , be cool and be successful.......
i still opposing well. i feeled one cycle as follow:

1. You start reboot
2. You did well
3. You relapse bcs of increased dopamine in brain.
1.again u start reboot repeat 1 to 3 again.
u need to get out of it. but what is the way...the way is that when u very close to relapse thing about how many times u followed this cycle. The more no.of follow the more strong urge that is pathway becomes very strong in mind. then what cycle is needed to reboot. That is as follows.
1. Start Reboot.
2. You do well
3. Close to relapse but not relapsed(bcs u know its only a cycle, and they repeat again and again)
4.finally u out of cycle and u r rebooted


AND YOUR CYCLE IS LIKE FOLLOWING AFTER REBOOT:
1.Rebooted successfully
2. Well life.
3. Urges comes.
4. u don't respond to urge.
Repeat 1 to 4 all life is set....
and here u dont need to repeat steps

Sorry, don't understand the topic title.

Are you saying, complete a day of reboot, and you can consider yourself not an addict?

If so, I think this is true, and an awesome way to think about rebooting. day 1 is the hardest, because that's the part of breaking out of the cycle. The more porn we watch, the more we want to watch. but a few weeks without porn, and rebooting gets easier. if you can do one day, all you have to do is... repeat what you've already done. Also, thinking of yourself and not an addict, but someone on a strict rebooting journey for whom porn is not an option, is a good way to be.

hahahahaha

well, whatever works for you guys. i constantly remind myself that i am a porn addict. i cant be too relaxed on youtube, facebook or look at girls and think about them in some way if i am a porn addict. i need to watch out. i think about my brain and im breaking the relapse loop using that approach. it means a lot to me to remember that i am deeply addicted to porn because i do everything differently from that point of view.

i tried just ignoring/forgetting/distracting myself from my diagnose only to find myself several days later wondering where i lost it and relapsed.

whatever works for you.

i need to watch out.

Wise words, Nikola, along with the rest of your post. We need to be forever vigilant. I relapsed after a period of sobriety because I got over confidant and didn't have porn blockers on. I hope one day there are no urges and I can laugh about the weird predicament I used to be in. more likely, I always need to be careful about triggers, use methods I've learned about here to release urges, and I'll probably use porn blockers for the rest of my life!
 
it is one day at a time. that was the best thing anyone could have said to me. i'm 2 and half months free, but still taking it one day at a time god bless you all
