Conflicted, Does masturbating to memories of women in my past count as a relapse? Is it hurting my recovery, and hindering the rewiring ?

If no one has an answer for you then go off of how it makes you feel. If it makes you feel like you relapsed don’t do it

I mean look at it this way your seed is designed to fertilize and reproduce life into the world but instead you’re spilling it into the toilet or the trash can. They say that it can actually reduce your testosterone levels as well.

Your brain associates masturbation and porn together, one will inevitably lead to the other. Those who just watch porn or take just a peak will inevitably masturbate to it. Those who masturbate will inevitably peak at porn. Yes it’s understood that masturbation is natural but we are not here to solve nature, we are here to solve a problem and the best way to do so is to avoid all lust and temptation in the process. When you get to the point where you have easily avoided both for (in my opinion) 1 full year, then I’d say it’s safe to start looking into healthy ways to masturbate without falling back into old habits. Me personally, I think I’ll never masturbate again. I have a woman in my life and that’s all I’ll ever need from here on out

My best bet is to not do it at all and find yourself a woman you can commit yourself to and make love with as well to take away that desire to do it on yourself bc that’s basically what you’re doing.

Imma be real with you it’s hard to say bc if you go Google and look it up it’s says it’s natural but religiously it’s looked down upon.
