Masturbated

I masturbated for the first time in 116 days. I was really struggling yesterday. I didn't use porn, didn't use a death grip, and finished in about 3 minutes. How bad is this?

It's only a big deal if you make it a big deal. Just try to move on and get on with things. Don't dwell on it. It wasn't PMO. Try not to do it again too soon though.

116 days is good. No worries there.

But watch out....you might only make it to 30 days next time, before you masturbate again. Unless that is part of your plan, just be aware that you might accidentally slip into a more frequent habit.

I did this, before I had properly healed my brain, and afterwards I was really annoyed that I had delayed my recovery by yet another month.

I don't want to M ever again, but I'm thinking that if I do this very very occasionaly (like once a month) it probably won't hurt?

I don't believe so. Once you have gotten to a point where your head is in a better place, masturbating to settle a raging libido I think is ok. If you're dipping into doing it every few days just because you're bored then maybe not...

Remember, your goal isn't to avoid orgasms or masturbating ever again, that is not natural or sustainable, you're just trying to balance out your brain to overcome whatever your personal problem is.

Masturbation is normal because it existed before porn and men don't have ED much in olden days. So don't worry much.

In my case I did need to worry, because I tried to move to the "once a month" habit, but:
1) I was doing it more often than that, without properly realising
2) I still hadnt properly healed my brain - I needed to reboot for longer.

I am an idiot!

Body must release its sexual fluid so it urges to have sex, masturbation or a night fall. If you want to masturbate once a month keep yourself busy in daytime and sleep with your parents. This may reduce your masturbation habit.

How can you do that? No masturbation in 116 days?! Hats off man! I still cannot avoid masturbating over vr porn for more than 3 days. So I think you are really doing big efforts although I am more a supporter of lighter methods.

I have sex fairly often which is why I made it 116 days without M. I only went about 60 days hard mode (absolutely no P, M, or O). The next 56 days were just no P or M; I really don't want to masturbate ever again but that day was goddamn awful. My libido was through the roof, girlfriend was on her period, and I needed to study but couldn't focus at all because I needed sex so bad.

This happened to me.
I started with "once a month", after that I was masturbating each 15 days, then each 10 days... and guess what? I just masturbated yesterday and today...
Now I'm feeling like a load of shit.

Man, this is tough... Now I'll have to start from scratch again. But I can't give up.
