You’ve heard of post-nut clarity.
But what about post-relapse depression?
9/10 men experience deep shame after watching porn (because we instinctively know it’s wrong)
How to deal with relapses to porn (and never despise yourself again…)
The NoFap journey can be hard, full of ups and downs.
You feel like shit after a relapse.
I hear you,
Truth is, relapses are a part of the game.
Here are 9 ways to deal with relapses on NoFap:
1. Shift your mindset from that of failing to that of learning
A lot of people get disheartened after a relapse.
The relapse itself is not your failure. It’s how you pick yourself up after the relapse that determines if you’ve really failed at the NoFap challenge or not.
2. Make a note of what lead to your relapse
After the relapse, sit down, quiet your mind, and retrace your steps.
Think of the moments leading up to the relapse.
Your goal is to determine what your PMO triggers are.
Examples of physical triggers are things like watching a movie that has nudity, watching the music channel, seeing a hot model on IG.
Examples of emotional triggers are things like boredom, depression, feeling inadequate about something, failing at something, and on and on.
3. Prepare yourself for the chaser effect
In case you don’t know what this is, the NoFap chaser effect is that PMO binge you go on after a NoFap relapse.
The chaser effect happens after you orgasm on a NoFap streak.
You’ve starved your body of orgasm, so, your body wants more. That’s what it is.
Being self aware will help you catch it on its heels rather than the chaser effect catching you by surprise.
4. Revisit your goals about WHY you started
Why did you start this journey? Rethink the goals and write them down and Recommit to the journey
5. Take a social media break
Speaking of using social media positively for your NoFap challenge, a social media break might be what you need after your NoFap relapse.
A lot of relapses are triggered by content on social media.
6. Eat healthy diets and stay hydrated
Your diet is directly linked with your willpower system.
The healthier you eat, the easier it is to resist the urge to binge on porn.
Apart from resisting the urge to binge, you want your body to quickly regain the lost energy.
7. Do a dopamine boosting workout
After a NoFap relapse, it’s important to feel good.
One of the best, fastest, and healthiest ways to feel good is to do rounds of High-Intensity Interval Training exercises (HIIT) which releases a lot of dopamine.
8. Stop edging!
This is one thing you’re better off not doing when you’re on NoFap challenge.
When you relapse on NoFap, if you’ve been edging yourself—either to porn or without porn, you should resolve to stop doing it when you get back on the NoFap challenge wagon.
9. Get out of the house/interact with other people
Loneliness, depression, and boredom all play major roles in the relapse of most people on the NoFap challenge.
Getting outside and interacting with other human beings will start making you feel better.
