What can stop you is you. For me my doubts lifted when I realized that I create my own reality, I create my own life by the choices I make. I was waiting for something from the outside to stop me or decide for myself but it never worked. There is no mystery. With every urge, your action to PMO or not is you choosing the kind of life you want. Do I want an addiction-free life or not -- I think this is the question we have to ask ourselves everyday. And it's a real question, not a rhetorical one.
Deep words, you are right. It is and was always my choice to either be free or slave. We have to concentrate on what we control, not on the unknown, and hope for a prodigy to happen out of the blue.
I hope so I find it difficult to stay on track if i don't have a clear goal. I need a short term goal and a lot of motivation to get out of my relapses loop. One year of struggles. Day 5, done
You know I admire that you're really positive. That's really good.. Some time ago I think we talked about something like this. I advised you to try this: every time you fall in PMO, add (or quit) something to your life that makes your probabilities to be free be better than last time. This was really effective for me. And you know for sure that every time is different because that new thing is up with the old ones. Tips: Quit instagram, Facebook Netflix, stupid YouTube videos (if it's good for you, or you can learn from it, you can watch) Tell a friend, start doing exercises (or increase) Pray, be with friends and family
Started my 90 days no porn, no masturbation, no orgasm challenge yesterday night. Along with that I have also started a diet, joined a gym. Also gonna follow healthy habits like reading a book for 30 minutes daily; meditating daily; limiting social media to 30 minutes daily; no alcohol/drugs/tobacco; and filling in a journal daily. Just need help and support for motivation from you guys. I'mma be a god.
Day 7 Pull-ups in the rain. Besides the workout stuff I spent a lot of the day catching up on my crypto videos (had a ton to watch, but it has to be done) and still not all the way caught up. Definitely still felt a bit dysregulated today, but glad to be back at a week. I feel like this week is flying by.
44! Thats true , for me the goal is to change my life. From a lone wolf that had no relationships in life to … it. I know it is because of fmo, and i also started university so it helps too (it is a long process obviously) Whan you know that whats hurt you it will be easier for you to deal with that. But it may take some relapses until you will feel super shit that u would do anything to get rid of fmo. be strong and write here for help !!! We all be happy to help By the way sorry for my english !
Yeah bro, we got a long way to go. Keep up the fight! You can do it. Remember, the pleasure this urge will give may last a couple of seconds. But the fruit of your self control and will power, will last a lifetime. So stick in there. We are all with you!!!
