    Day 6 is a great start. Let's try to get to 10 days. That will be a good challenge. You're over halfway!!

    14 days is fantastic but you must be having a few withdrawal symptoms. Care to share?

    I haven't felt a significant change, every day I still felt tired and tense on my shoulder. Idk why.. And Social anxiety still surrounds me..

    But I think I'm fine as long as I don't relapse, even though it's uncomfortable.

    Maybe someday it will go away.. maybe not? I'm a bit worried.

    I had a lot of such tension at that very time. It will pass. Now is the time to work on new habits and forcing yourself to attend to things you have let slip, whatever they may be. Fill your time with productive stuff.

    Are you flatlining right now? Low mood, no energy, possibly no morning wood?
     
  11. Hi everyone. I am happy that this opportunity exists, since it is true that each one has different time and objectives. In my case, I want to propose dates, I do not want count days. My first date is: JULY 7, 2019. Reward: soda with chips. Big hug and successes to everyone.

    (Excuse me, but I'm a Spanish speaker and I used the translator, thank you)

    Hi guys. I think this is a great idea. I accept the challenge. I´m 47 y.o., married. So my first goal is one week without PM (it will probably mean without O, too, as we don´t make love so often anymore with my wife, but that is not my goal, quite the opposite :) ).

    I assure you that when you get rid of the pro (especially the p), the frequency of intimacy with your wife will gradually increase to levels you haven't seen in years. It's none of my business but I don't understand why you wouldn't want to reignite that intimate relationship.

    There will be two big ingredients to your success. 1. Stop porn, period. Period. If you are really serious, you will. Think about whether you still want to be doing what you're doing when you're 60. Disgusting image, right? You don't want to be one of those creepy guys. 2. You have to figure out the root things in your past that lead you to disrespect yourself and put it/them behind you. Start fresh. Change your daily habits, especially thought habits. It's not easy but it's necessary for your success in stopping pmo. I've been helping guys for almost two years now and I've found that these two steps are the critical ones.

    For everyone here: quitting pmo is the most difficult thing you've ever done, I assure you. But it really is worth the torture.

    I guess I didn´t myself clear. I meant my goal wasn´t to avoid orgasm, quite the opposite :). I love my wife very much and our lovemaking is still great. But we don´t have the chance so often, as our children are almost adult and they tend to be awake longer then we are.

    Lol. I know how that is! And it's really helpful for the reboot to avoid O for at least 30 days if possible. The main thing is that this has to be a life decision and when the going gets rough (and it will), just keep telling yourself that there's no going back. You'll start to notice changes in yourself around 30 days and that will help you keep going. You've got this!

    Yeah, actually, I´m somehow grateful for the rest from all sexuality at the moment. I think it could be the flatline, right? After so many years PMOing even couple times a day I´m just tired of that. But I understand your warning and I will keep it in mind. Thank you for that! I´m not going to back off! Even now, at the very beginning, I´m enjoying my newly found piece of sanity.
    4/7
