    If this results in dropping out of the community or any effort at recovering this is very dangerous, if nothing else it takes a long time until the person gets out of the depression to start again, when it doesn't have to be so long if they just didn't beat themselves up.

    Agreed. Bullying yourself should not be confused with discipline. Be as gentle yet firm as you would if you were telling it to a friend who had opened up to you about it. If you know that a thought that comes into your mind wouldn't edify a friend if said aloud, then why would you think it would edify yourself?

    And you are right, anything that puts you farther away from community and support is not from a good source.

  There's a lot of anger and bitterness on other forums and threads outside of the Christian one that I'm familiar with. It breaks my heart.

    @Faithe I hear you. That is primarily why I (and a few other Christians) tend to only hop on NF to journal or encourage one another privately & immediately sign off. It's so important for us to stay focused on our own healing & remain unspotted from this world. If I stumble on a "doom post" or read something evil on here, I simply pray & release them. May you be encouraged & know you are not alone.

    Thank you, @GodsDaughter. I think it's a good idea to hop on for a bit to journal and catch up with other believers and then hop off. I'll pray about it more and let those things go. Thank you for the encouragement.

    I find it important not to get drawn into those threads. It is so easy to want to dive in and correct the wrong-headed things that get said. But it is important to remind myself why I am here, to find support in beating my porn addiction and to help others on the same path.

  The days between each reset have been steadily growing... which is progress. I'm considering starting a journal to help myself along.

  I usually haven't been here unless it's to update my day counter. But I think I want to start engaging more on here to help avoid relapsing.

  Haven’t been properly on here much except to update my counter. I think I’ll write another entry tomorrow if I remember/find time.

    It can help even when you don’t want to do it.

  I’m motivated but lazy at the same time. Not sure how that works.

Bad habits from childhood are hard to break, but I just need to keep putting the Lord first and focusing on who I want to be. Overcoming addiction is a slow and sometimes painful process but I can do it!
