Does MO'ing without porn count as a relapse after 100 days? Advice needed

So I went 100 days hard mode no PMO because of my PIED.
On day 103 I MO'd twice to touch only (lasted under a minute each time) and then once on day 104.
Before my reboot I could barely even O to porn, my dick was literally dead to touch alone so I know I have at least made some progress.
I also used to only orgasm to porn and I had to watch it every day, I've completely kicked my addiction too.

Since then I've started hard mode again.
Now i'm really worried that I've regressed though, have I somehow damaged my reboot and thrown it away? is MO'ing that damaging?

No, definitely not! Remember that rebooting is about quitting pornography, so an MO definitely doesn't count as a relapse as long as you aren't looking at porn.

With that being said, some people do find that if the MO or have an orgasm before they are completely recovered, progress stalls for them. If you are one of those people who seems to flatline after an orgasm, I recommend going on a long no O streak.

Fugu's absolutely right, you certainly have not thrown away your reboot.
The only thing I'd like to add is: Great achievement, seriously.

Thanks Fugu and Username for your support.

I've started hard mode cutting out all MO again today with no problems, no urge to PMO or MO.
That said I think I'm in another little flatline which I was still having every few days before I MO'd during the 100 day reboot.

I think the little flatlines I get are going to be a thing until I start rewiring.

I'm 60 days in did the same thing masturbated purely of thought of real women with no sex involved just imagining their breasts sorry for the details. I did kind of need to think fairly hard to actually orgasm but i was ok keeping the erections, also before for me standing up stopped erections which has gone and also my delayed ejaculation seems to have gone too! Although still a way to go not getting random erections yet although i did 1 week ago for like 2 days.
