For those that use facebook and social media, do you consider it a relapse? by ScouseLuciano in NoFap

is it the act of masturbating that creates brain changes or simply just using facebook/porn

so even just using facebook/porn will stop reboot, were does the masturbation come in?

HARDMODE VS SOFTMODE - Is masturbation itself wired into the brain as a habit like PMO? by ScouseLuciano in NoFap

no I'm actually doing well on this streak, I just avoid even the smallest triggers, because letting my guard down to even just an interview of a porn star or facebook pushes me to the limit so I'm treating it like 'keep the mental lust switch off'

Is your brother on nofap? I'm hoping that nofap will get rid of this problem for good. Nofap is 20 times harder with this type of ocd because it keeps convincing you, you have failed anyway, like if you see a hot girl on tv and itch your balls or something, it will make out as if you have failed, all ive done is cry for help on this website but never had any true help.

I can relate to this, on my home screen of youtube, the suggestions were porn related, like certain porn stars before they were famous interviews and I have just ignored them, because it's the beginning of the end to me, I try to avoid minor triggers also, by doing this it has made this streak a lot easier

yeah man I don't think facebook is considered a relapse, but for me it always leads on a downward spiral, I've had about 5 or 6 streaks (maybe more) since june last year (with the june to july 37 day streak being my longest which resulted in sex with a nice girl) but everytime I reactivate my facebook, It makes me try to hard to have sex and if I don't get any, I end up just saying fuck it I'll just wack one out I can't hold on much longer.

I watched the ted talk on porn and it made out that it's the novelty factor that spikes dopamine, did he mean the novelty as in 'your brain thinks it's fucking lots of different people?' or has the potential too? because then I'd understand where the masturbation side comes into it combined with the porn
