Oof, difficult morning. But amusing moment in dream.

Last night I was in the middle of having what I'm pretty sure what was about to be a wet dream (the first one in my life that wasn't weird as fuck - this one was of my ultimate fantasy), when some dude came and scared the girls off, and I was left to finish myself off. Partway through, dream me realised "holy shit I can't do this, I'm on nofap!" And I stopped.

To be clear, I don't think wet dreams count as a relapse. Your prefrontal cortex is mostly shut off in dreams, which is why weird nonsensical shit can make sense in dreams. That's the part that controls urges and thinks ahead and makes plans - ie the part we're all training to be stronger, and which we have to rely on to succeed at nofap. I just thought it was amusing that it showed up in my dream.

But hot damn this morning was difficult. Fridays are my warm shower day, a reward for a week of cold ones. I'm not so sure I should do them anymore though cause it felt like a trigger. I was also alone in the house this morning which is definitely a trigger. And that dream was stuck in my head, which was even worse.

But I said 12 days down, I'm not giving up now. So my streak continues!
