I deleted all the AV collection which storage is nearly 120Gbs - I was so hurt and regret when removing all. But for sure porn is the main problem that’s it. I have to choose one way or the other. My reboot just coming better daily. I will tell you how I feel when I completely not watching porn anymore.
YEAH! Keep moving on! Today is the 26th day of the reboot! Thank you very much for your support, for your kind words at the right time! Thank you that we are moving towards the same goal. God bless you to do it!
Hi everyone. It is day 1 for me, it is very hard for me to stop relapse because sometimes when the urge comes my brain is just like empty and only focusing on seeking P. All my control and rational mind are gone. But I believe if I participate and keep posting my progress here, it will regain my control because it just like u guys are monitoring me and helping me when I am weak. Thanks! Work hard everyone.
Oooh! you said well about the search, this state interferes with concentration. Thanks for writing, I just could not opsat my condition. To overcome this, I keep myself busy. a few years ago, when I was in a strong search state, I switched to simple work. Year worked from morning till night! We need activity. Very good activity. It is very dangerous to be near a computer! He creates a lot of connections in a goal. because it is a trigger for masturbation. Good luck! God bless you!
Thanks so much for your advice buddy! Your previous experience clearly pointed out two problems of me: lack of simple work && too much computer use. I am actually using PC intensively due to work, and this making me very easy to search porn when I hv the urge. A long period of working hours also consume a lot of my energy to concentrate and less resistant to urge (I guess). Therefore maybe I really need some simple work to distract and relax myself! I’m really grateful that a forum like this and ppl are so helpful to support each other.
Try to put DNS protection on your computer, it will give you time to go into a cold shower. I think your mood decides!
Just I got relapsed but I will not defeat by this evil,,,,.. I will start my counter from tomorrow... #new beginning
day 22 still going, today was rough as i had lots of urges but pulled through i'll make sure to take cold shower and go for walks tomorrow as well as spend time with people to prevent urges then as well. I am finding the urges way easier to resist than i used to so hopefuly thats a sign of improvement.
i replased last night after 10 days. But I think it was a good milestone reaching double digits in a long long time( almost 2 years) fresh start today. Day 1
Day 27. I want to tell you guys that my mind is becoming clearer than it was, and I also become happier and calmer. Even though there are still urges emerging, I can remove them rapidly by noticing them. I want to say that, finally, I'm not tightly controlled by those urges, depression, and inferiority. I now live with a pure, free heart instead. But there's still a long way to go for us, I know I need to be careful at any time or I will relapse again and then my happy, pure, and calm mind will disappear, which I definitely don't want it to happen! Guys, pls stop watching porn and masturbation, even once. I want to say that watching pron and masturbation aren't normal, because they're like Internet free drugs that give you severe addiction and gradually destroy you in every aspects of your life. Porn is definitely a acute severe modern issue, but most of people are still not aware of it.... Why are there so many people in this forum? Why are there so many people want to stop watching pron and masturbation? The answer is obvious - PM ruin us from relationship to work performance, and give us an dangerous and terrible life.... Guys, it's hard to quit a deep addition like PM, but I want you to feel pure and happy and free, not controlled by the urges and then destroy yourself. We're all together, pick yourself up from where you've fallen.
Day 27 Reboot! Thank you guys for our joint journey! Thank you 27 days for keeping the vigilance in my brain that giving up porn is important! Thanks to the whole community for the opportunity to communicate!
