    I didnt have any urges today. My concentration was better, my focus was better and I dont know how but I could remember things better. I hope it continues

    Day 4 down! Not a single excuse is valid. This is what I realised today.
    "I don't have time... I don't feel so good... Oh, I don't know how it works... Oh, I've never been good at this" This is what stopped me from getting a better life. I just want you to know, that whenever I relapse again (and hopefully that day will never come), it will not be because I was triggered or whatever, it will be because I gave up. This is the harsh truth!

  3. The urges weren't too strong, you were too weak! That's not an insult, by the way, if anything it's a compliment. The issue isn't with PMO, it's with you. And that means if you try hard enough there is no doubt you will succeed. It's inevitable. You just have to keep pushing.

    Yeah, that makes sense, it was like the whole 11 days i didnt even have one Urge, so it was easy, but i wasnt prepared for the moment when they came, i just thought, thats it with the urges, but thanks for your reply, seems reasonable to me, i try to better myself, i dont actually know why i cant fight these urges, they come and i just give in.


    Yes, i just bought a guitar to get creative, i think i can use the guitar whenever i have a urge, that should be working, right?
    LETS GOO!
    Adventure is just starting to begin

  6. I understand, sometimes an urge feels too strong. What you have to do is be reactive: the longer you sit with an urge the stronger it gets. When an urge starts it's usually pretty minor (at least briefly), take this time to get out of any high risk situation you're in. Are you in your room, alone in the dark? Get out of there. Go downstairs and do something else, get
    something to eat maybe.

    In fact, you might be killing two birds with one stone there. Use the acronym HALT (Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired) to identify emotions that might give you urges and do your best to deal with them in advance. That might not always be possible though, which is why you've got to deal with urges ASAP when they appear, before the pull gets too strong.

    Day 7, one week down. Won't be able to check in tomorrow and maybe not the day after, so I'll see you on day 9 or 10.

    No strong urges, again. I am more aware of what is going on around me. I feel as if days are longer :)) My brain tried to trick me once, but I dodged it :D

    good to know that.

    brother, some advices: i don´t think you can include fapping in your new life. remember you´re addicted to porn with masturbation. porn alone doesn´t work. so the more you fap the more you´ll tend to use some external source of excitment to support that behaviour. eventually you´ll lean to erotic stuff and porn again.

    my advice is to keep going in the no pmo mindset. you´re doing great so far. plus if you include masturbation in your streak i can´t include you in the challenge, since it´s about abstaining from porn and masturbation.

    what do you say?

    i know that feeling very well brother. but don´t shy away, stay with us, we are here to support each other. there´s no heroes, only human beings with the same problem.

    The important thing is to discover why you fell and how you can prevent that from happening again. Let´s go!!!

    Congratulations brother!!! Proud of you :)

    Here´s your journey. So far you´ve arrived at Bree.

    Hope to see you 485 days from now in the fires of Mount Doom when you destroy your addiction forever. It´s a long journey brother but your only task it´s to do the walk of the day. just this day. Whatever happens: no pmo. Let´s go!!!!

    don´t stray away from the forum too long bro. stay accountable. everyday that you spend without the forum accountability you reduce the external pressure on yourself and you´re more closely to embark on pmo. try to stay accountable daily, do whatever it takes.
