day 13 without porn or masturbation

Stay busy focus on the things you want to do in order to become the person u want to be ...whatever that may be ...keep going

 

Hey Adam,

Good job on fighting it! I found the low moods and lack of energy one of the hardest things to deal with. The emotional low you feel isnt talked about as much as 'the flatline', but I found it much worse.

Something that I found useful was to remind myself that the way I'm feeling was because my body was facing withdrawal. It's a positive thing as your mind and body adjusts. It's hard when you're in the moment of anxiety, but if you can get through it, it does pass.

I recommend spending a lot of time on these forums and submerging yourself in positive stuff. Get an accountability partner that can be on hand when you're struggling to speak some encouragement into your situation.

It's not easy; but you're doing the right thing. I promise it gets easier! Keep going, and keep us posted!

 

Fight on and i wouldn't worry about having a wet dream if it happens in the future. You're not doing it to yourself, just your body. I've read many people who've had them and it's just a normal part of this process. Nothing you can do about it.

I bring it up because I saw another guy here get really, really down because he had one and he relapsed. Just a heads up in case it happens.

I'm on day 11 and suffering right along side you. Embrace it, it's your brain unravelling itself! It's like the soreness in your muscles after your work out. It's pain but it's not suffering because you know its your brain and body healing!
