I have been having nocturnal emissions almost every night for the last week. I do not remember it being this frequent since puberty. Whatever I do it is every night, I am not looking at porn, I am not acting out, I do not know what to do. I sleep on the right side it happens, I try to relax before bed once again. I wear very loose underwear but once again I wake up in the middle of the night briefly and have an emission. I never acted out frequently since I got addicted to watching the filth. I will admit I was addicted to looking at it but I rarely wasted seed. I think in the last 14 days I lost more seed than in a year combined. I want to know if any of you have had similar experiences and if it stops after a while.

Completely relatable

Don't worry too much about it.

I was in a similar stage as you not too long ago...(it sometimes still happens but definitely not as common)

Don't let it get you down or saddened it's normal.
I think the consensus is to completely ignore it.
"They say" it's a haskamah of sorts..
keep up the good work!

One who sees hope in each day is already free

One of the reasons for this might be the very fact that you're worried about it... As the  Tzemach Tzedek writes: 
ההרהור מזה גופא שמתירא ומפחד לנפשו שלא יארע לו קרי בליל יוהכ"פ זה שכיח טובא בעיוהכ"פ והרהור ופחד זה יוכל לפעול בטבע הקרי כמו הרהורי עבירה

And the Steipler quotes him as follows:
מה שאדם בא לידי טומאה בלא הרהור אין בזה שום עון כלל כי זה נקרא לאונסו רק צריך לטבול בבוקר. ודאי ובודאי צריך להזהר עד כמה שאפשר מהמתכלות בנשים ומכל דבר המביא לידי הרהור ומה שיבא ח"ו לידי טומאה אחר הזהירות אין בזה עון. מה שמכל דבר קטן בא לידי הרהור זהו רגיל מאוד בהרבה צעירים, ‏והעיקר לעסוק בתורה הקדושה ובמשך איזו שנים ינצל אי״ה מזה ורק שלא לבטל מדברי תורה כי ביטול תורה גורם לכל הרהורים רעים ח״ו. מה שראה קרי ביוה"כ אין זה כלום אצל איש צעיר שאין לו אשה כי חז"ל דיברו באיש כזה שמטבעו אינו עלול לזה ומן השמים סיבבו לו כן אבל מי שבא לו מכח טבעו אין כאן "ידאג" ואין כאן "מובטח לו" כו' כמבואר כ"ז בתשובת צמח צדק מליובביץ בסוף חלק חו"מ שער המלואים סי' מ"ב וכן ידוע מכמה גדולי ישראל שהורו כן והוא פשוט

I feel like I am on the verge of viewing, looking for some motivation.

If you’re somewhat like me then I will assume that you don’t enjoy battling the temptation. It feels so strong and overwhelming and seems impossible not to give in. You wish the urge wasn’t so big and strong so that you’d have the ability to not act on it. But because it feels so strong and overwhelming... how about just give in and look to make my life easier... But hey... tomorrow we’re going to have this fight all over again. And the next day. Each time I give in I’m making the battle harder for myself. It’s so hard not to look when the temptation is so great. But i sometimes motivate myself by thinking that no matter how difficult the urge is now if I give in now tomorrow’s battle is going to be so much harder. I really don’t like things to be hard for myself so how about I say no now when it’s sooooooooo hard this way tomorrow’s battle won’t be sooooooooooooooooooooooooo hard. Hope this is somewhat helpful.

You're post made me smile! Great to hear the great news.
Just remember, the urge is just around the corner ready to rear it's ugly head. You can do it

Very much relate and I had a similar issue a little while into my 90 day journey feel free to check out my thread for details (maybe on second or third page) 

At least for me it went away after about 10 days
Think about how good you'll feel if you say no to desire and compare that to how bad you'll feel if you say yes.

Desire is unique in the way that it is never fulfilled -  if you give in the desire comes back even more powerful in just a few days. Telling yourself that its ok because this is really the last time doesn't work because you are just adding new images to your head that will cause future falls.

The Joy of triumph over the yetzer hara is worth the effort it takes to win. It IS worth it! Keep fighting!

Was browsing some social media today and came across some immodest but not downright pornographic content. Was very tempted to switch to the hard stuff but I held.

I was looking at immodest women on media these last two days. It is not porn but images on media of women dressed very skimpily. It happened twice in the last two days where I was about to open a porn site but somehow I held. Should I mark it as a fall?
