Sorry to read it @Wolfyoufeed, you still remain a figure of leadership and hope for your own and ours futures battles. Respect chief! How was it at the hospital and how did your wife reacted to it (if you told her)?
Seems like a nice anime and with the prize mention, sure it will be a great thrill to watch it GTO is so funny: i already watched the first 23 episodes of the serie and so much time I laugh myself to tear with the expressions and the plot of the story, but also reflected on a lot of concept about modern society teaching and freedom. Man I love this anime, I'll continue to watch it!
Question for you all: does a wet dream count as PMO? As for traveller 22, he said: Don't worry about that mate. Your PMO streak remains completely unaffected by the wet dreams. As others have said it's a natural process & is not a conscious choice on your point. Good question but you can certainly chill on that point. Keep going brother! T22. On the other hand, an anonymous person said: It depends on the dream if the dream is normal then its normal If the dream include porn then its a cum In the day if you watching too many porn and girls and not get orgasm or masturbation then your subconscious mind will store this emotions and let them out as wet dream. What do you think about it? I'm intrigued about your opinion
Day 6 I have had a more successful time with all my challenges. Being free from YouTube and TikTok has provided me with so much time to do other stuff. It was tough to wake up at 6 am but it felt good doing something out of my comfort zone. Cold showers: Day 3 of 10 No Youtube: Day 2 of 10 No Social Media (Including Tumblr, TikTok, FB and IG): Day 2 of 10 No Using the Internet from 7 PM onwards: Day 1 of 10 Cycling 50Kms in 5 days: Day 3 of 5 and Covered 30.7 Kms Reading a book (The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks) in 4 days: Day 3 of 4 and on Page 51 Scheduling my day: Day 2 of 10 Learn the basics of auto engineering (Learning something new): Day 1 of 10 Learning JavaScript for 1 hour: Day 2 of 10 Sleeping by 10:30 PM: Day 1 of 10 Waking up at 6 AM or Earlier: Day 1 of 10
Man, this is awesome!!! Keep up the good work! Might as well try these types of little goals, it's inspiring
I am so glad to see you back in the forum. I really like your honesty and courage. It is not easy to admit relapse especially after a long streak but being honest with oneself is part of the recovery process I believe. 142 days is a long time and the positive changes in your brain as regards rebooting and rewiring cannot be erased. You are an inspiration to me to keep going on this journey and have always been a great source of encouragement, even now. I hope you are in better health.
@Wolfyoufeed As others have said, much respect chief - both for your effort and for your openness and honesty. The brain changes in 142 days are a big deal, and they're still there. Stay the course. How was it at the hospital? (Also sorry, maybe I shouldn't be posting since I said I'm leaving the challenge, just really wanted to respond to some of these posts and welcome you back!) @Unhommebinsoft My thoughts on wet dreams - they never count, no matter the content. If they happen after watching porn "but no orgasm" then the wet dream still doesn't count - it's the watching porn that is to be questioned, according to one's conscience IMO. E.g. for some people "peeking" for a minute would be a relapse, but maybe for others not.
Day 7 7 days milestone achieved! Next target is now double digits! Cold showers: Day 4 of 10 No Youtube: Day 3 of 10 No Social Media (Including Tumblr, TikTok, FB and IG): Day 3 of 10 No Using the Internet from 7 PM onwards: Day 2 of 10 Cycling 50Kms in 5 days: Day 4 of 5 and Covered 30.7 Kms (Missed cycling today) Reading a book (The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks) in 4 days: Day 4 of 4 and on Page 98 (I will not achieve my goal but will keep reading until I finish the book) Scheduling my day: Day 2 of 10 (Failed to schedule my day) Learn the basics of auto engineering (Learning something new): Day 2 of 10 Learning JavaScript for 1 hour: Day 3 of 10 Sleeping by 10:30 PM: Day 2 of 10 Waking up at 6 AM or Earlier: Day 2 of 10
Day 8. Trying to be occupied. Our leader's relapse is his opportunity to show us how to start again from 0. I'm not in a good mood today because I didn't reach the goal yesterday with stranger girl. Physical exercises and meditation helps me.
Thanks for the feedback! Then it's time to continue the journey through the days without porn!! LET'S DO THIS COMRADES I BELIEVE IN YA!!!! *Gorilla scream of madness in order to stand up*
Don't forget that a little step at a time is better than a goal that require too much to change in an instant. Maybe the goal you set up was too high? How will you change your approach next time? Never give up comrade
I'm amazed by the list and by the goals you achieve a little bit every day: don't give up man, it's good to read about it!
Changing the challenge for smaller steps? Sharp thinking, hope you do well with your challenge, hope to see you on the battlefield again some day. Respect *Waves goodbye with salute*
@Gonarth, @hollyman @Unhommebinsoft, @EndPornLiveLife and the rest of the Clan Thank you for your kind words of encouragement. I didn’t mean to seem like I was giving up, just the opposite. I feel much better having come clean to you all. I haven’t told my wife just yet. Last time I told her what I was battling she just hugged me tightly and was very quiet. I’ve fought this battle since I was 10-11... yeah I liked girls early on. 142 days was he longest I’ve ever gone. Now it’s time to beat that streak. I wonder if my helmet rule was wise looking back. I don’t want to change it just because I lost mine, that would be hypocritical and I’m not that. I will always wear the Armor though. Can I hear you all? THIS IS THE WAY.
No, it doesn’t count.. you couldn’t control it. I wrote somewhere on this challenge about a crazy Lucid dream I had that I was able to control. I definitely didn’t count that as P even though it was filled with naked women (which I didn’t make). Now if you are in control of the dream and purposely do something.. you have to judge for yourself... I don’t think any man could decide that for you. In fact what makes us successful in these journeys is being honest with ourselves and holding our integrity in our hearts. After all, no one’s going to punish you if you lie or give in... we have to build that within ourselves and hold ourselves up to the clean standard we want to have. To be clear I’m not saying we are alone or that God doesn’t see us. I’m just making the point that a lot of this is the honor system. I believe the only way I made my last streak was with Gods help and others. But he’s not going to beat me or withhold good from my life because I gave in to PMO...
*Roaaarrrrrss in unison!* Couldn't agree more, with this whole post I certainly didn't take any of your posts to mean that you're giving up. Quite the opposite What's the "helmet rule" that you refer to? I'm guessing you said that if we lose it we can't put it back on, but I can't see where you said this.
