If you DM me I can act as your accountability partner. try not using technology for 2 weeks when youre at home, see if it curbs your triggers. good luck
almost edged since im alone on the communal PC but came on this site and it really helped me remember how its not worth it. gotta keep going
urges are really starting to kick in now. last night edged for a very short period (which was so stupid) and fuckin hell for like 3+ hours after it was all I could think about. had a hard time sleeping and almost gave in to the urges. I can never edge again it makes this whole process 10* harder. On a brighter note, I didn't watch anything or relapse. On to day 12
this shit is getting really tough now. I'm getting tempted even when on a communal computer. the urges are insanely strong. I think for the next 7 days I am going to only use the computer for a few hours for work, and then not use it for the rest of the day. This will help reduce the urges, and prevent edging. hopefully by day 20 it is easier and I am more under control.
I did this before but im naturally someone who likes problem solving, so this just makes it more entertaining to try and get onto porn sites lol.
Well I relapsed. similar to what happens elsewhere, me and being on a PC alone is not a good match. I am now only going to use it when people are in, for 1-2 hours in the morning when working. Nothing else. This shit is now or never. Ready to face the noise. I know it gets hard in day 10-20 so I am gonna expect a lot. Lets have it
1. What are your sexual health goals for 2019? What about other types of goals? What does your ideal lifestyle look like, and what goals can you set that you bring you closer to reaching these goals? In a new year I want be be true artist of my life. Process of living don't need to be filled with PMO to inspire me. I want to achieve the state when I am happy. To achieve this new experience I want to try again reach a streak of 10 days without PMO. If I will not achieve it - I know the result, but I will not too disappointent. I want my life to be inspiring like a process, some results and goals spoiling my mood. I can be a true artist without PMO. It is my wish, but Lord, may your will be done, not mine! 2. What worked well for you in 2018? A call to a friend. Being in a touch with this forum. A good reward after work. 3.What didn't work for you? Any kind of indulgence to lust. 4. What lessons can you take from 2018 to apply to 2019? Devil is not so scary, as they draw it. Say true to yourself, say true to others. Be helpful. In any situation - communicate. Read more. No matter what it is - it can wait. These good seeds and good fruits will come themselves Clean day first Others don't have you, only you have you Whatever happens is part of the functioning of totality. Without demons there will be no angels Call someone Perform actions!
I've relapsed again. To be honest having internet access makes this impossible for me. One slip or one day I have urges and its back to stage one. I'm gonna take a break from the internet completely and see if it helps. Good luck to you all
back on track... used the internet a total of 5minutes in the last 2 days and its helped a lot... gonna keep this up
day 7, peeked for 2 seconds yesterday and got insane urges which kinda interrupted sleep... learned my lesson, just gonna have to put up with the urges when they come.
@bigboibez something that’s been working for me is being able to take really cold showers and working out. I also had to install a porn blocker and block any and all accounts with erotic images otherwise the temptation was too much. I can say that last night (day 9 yesterday) was the first time I made a conscious decision to put my phone down and just go to bed, instead of browsing the internet and ending up on sites that I didn’t want to be on. Maybe cold showers would help you? Good luck man!
