  1. Checking in on Day 5. Woke up extremely... frustrated this morning. I have a headache. Is that normal? I thought I was just dehydrated but it's still around.

    Thank you a lot. I agree with you.
    Uninstalling social media and limiting electronics is good move for me. I dont have so much problem with instagram etc. compared to other people, but still when im bored im seeking a dopamine on social media, like when i wake up first thing what i do is going to instagram etc.
    Its 2. day, but still, because now im out of social media im feeling that im more in control.

    Thank you a lot, for supporting :D

    Checking in my Fellowship. Bad day today as brain fog appear. The morning was good but this afternoon i feel foggy as hell.

    i made a mistake. on the last days i´m working on a new project and cut my leisure time. and today i have a constant sense of pressure on me, like: "i got to do something". this is obviously result of working extra, and of course now i want to escape this using pmo. this pressure + chaser effect + pmo urges from recent relapse = high instability right now.

    i will try my best to not collapse. i will make proper changes from now on, resume semen retention, and dedicate myself to consistent self-care habits until i feel enough energy and willpower to embark in new projects.

    Pray for me Fellowship.

    Yes it is actually quite normal ,at least for me , under the circumstances. I think this is the normal accompaniment to PMOing and edging and the longer is your history of PMOing the more pronounced it becomes.

    Day 11,

    Active and got a run in this afternoon. Taking life in stride and intending to laugh at the things that would normally get me all wrapped up in a knot.

    Addition: First class since being out of spring break. Did fish a bit (no bites lol), just scrolling through reddit. Trying to pay more attention in class by maximizing the screen.

    Worked out yesterday, first time in a while. Triggers prevention plan is working. Still avoiding fishing. Sexual fantasy is next. Maybe I should set up a tracker? Hmmm..... Ok, time to work out :)

    Tuesday check in

    Feeling physically and emotionally good today. I still failed to get up early, but I think I needed the sleep this time. An earlier rising time is still a goal.

    Today: cold shower, prayer, meditation, healthy eating, light cardio in the form of a walk; all of these I have accomplished. I also checked in with my accountability partner on another platform.

    Hello to everybody! I'm! I really want to struggle to complete this fantastic journey!
    I'm in DAY 19 of no PMO, so I presume I'm a Hobbit.

    Things are going quite well right now, I'm on this forum since last year, but I started posting and getting involved in this week. I'm fighting against tempations and thoughts, but I notice that writing here is already helping me keeping anxiety away.

    Let me say this idea of LOTR challenge is incredible! I'll try to post quite often!

    Day 105. The weather is finally feeling warmer and spring seems to be here. I am looking forward to the summer. Online dating has not brought me much success so I am continuing on the PMO path. We will see what the future holds! No urges lately, I feel like I have entered another flatline.
