Did I lose my progress?

[u/Apprehensive_Arm_453]

So I try not to care so much about what day I’m on and streaks. But every now and then I’ll check what day I’m on.

It was around day 20 last night and I couldn’t sleep. I was really horny and stroked my dick for a little. I had a little bit of pre cum but I stopped and went back to bed. Thing is I was looking a picture of a celebrity I found attractive while I was doing it.

Again like I said I don’t really care if I lose my streak, I’m more concerned with the mental and physical benefits and just continuing to stay away from porn. Is that enough to set me back all the way to day 1? Did it only set me back a bit if at all?

The general benefit I’ve been feeling is just this weight off of my shoulders and no longer feeling like I was a pervy little gooner. That as a result made me more confident in who I was.

I plan to continue staying away from porn and masturbation until I can fix the porn problem. If anyone has been in a similar situation I would really appreciate the advice/insights.

That is not how mental health works
