dunno which day i started but i am in. My PMO habbit is 20 years old. I am interested in the benefits of completely giving it up. Lets see how it goes
I've been on a relapse loop lately but I'm ready to continue now. I'm on my day 3 today. I had to make sure I'm ready first before updating my journey here so. Day 3/365
You will make it because you understand the alternative: wallowing in filthy and unproductive life which could potentially lead to devastating consequences. I've lost count of how many times I relapsed, the streaks of 30-60 days that I had lost, etc. Of course the counter is important, but we often forget that it's following the path to recovery that counts. Think Matthew 13:31-32.
100 days. Good times. I've only made it this far 3 times in my whole adult life. Once was 25 years ago, the second time was last year, and now today.
XIV. It is no easy sailing these days. I remember my 368 and 47 days streaks, my best to date. At the time Porn wasn't in my mind at all. It was just about quitting Masturbation or not. These are rough days. My Porn addiction came roaring back this summer. Urges are way tougher and more common than they used to be back in my prime. Sometimes, I wouldn't have urges for a month; now I have them every day. I can't wait to go on, to reach better times. They will come, I know from experience. For all of you out there, struggling right now: you will reach a point at which the urges will start vanishing, and you won't think about it anymore. Months of progress will seem like days now. So, go on!
Day 24 no pmo I just gave this advice,on the one strike you're out August challenge, which is really helping me put together a good streak and where the members there are really actively commenting. Have small goals that you can easily reach. Once you achieve these, they will keep you motivated to keep on achieving more. Also remember that It's not what you say, but how you say it! If you are excited about something and show it,others will be too which will make you feel even better about yourself. Onwards .. ..
XVI. You wouldn't believe me if I told you what I dreamt of tonight. It's crazy, nonstop, porn dreaming. My brain is rewiring. Aparth from that I'm fine.
