    Day 12 check in

    One great thing about nofap is vivid dreams and some lucid dreams, but so far I don't remember having a morning erection or wet dreaming. I'm really on an empty tank

    Congratulations mate for overcoming temptation. You don't need to reset the counter, but it's good to be careful, in one of these you can end up going to the end and lose all the accumulated benefits. Try to know your triggers to avoid them in the future. You already recognized one of them.

    Day 470 no PMO. The good news is I only have 30 days to go… the bad news is that I realize I will need to go farther to beat this (if beating this is really ever possible). I’m way stronger than I was but I would be lying if I said I thought I was healed. The lesson I think is that I still need God.

    Day 13 as an Uruk-Hai, complete!
    Been very busy so I haven't had much of a chance to think about PMO, but the urges have been lurking in the background!
    One day at a time.

    Soon I become a Hobbit! and the journey begins!

    no, in my opinion that´s a slip at most. but if you do that again, you should seriously consider resetting the counter.

    Hi Guys!

    Day 304, 305 & 306

    Hello brothers! I'm quitting my studies while I work and learn new things that I really care for, basically studying by myself!

    From now on I'll go to the gym Monday to Friday and try to grow some muscles. Also I'm thinking on moving to Europe maybe in a year, so I'll start to save some money. God bless you!

    dunno whats wrong with me the last days... relapsed again
    Day 0.
    I have no motivation since I've had a "setback" of a memory of my last break up - it was rly painful...
    It seems I still havent fully gettin over it yet... although its been almost three years since the last time I ve seen her.
    I still see her everywhere. Normally Im faster in processing a break. I had many. But this time its different.
    This time PMO (again) took advantage of that...
    low motivation - pain ... great for PMO

    Im tryin to get away from porn for over three years now...PMO had planted the belief in me that Im "Not doing much progress" . PMO said "You dont need a relationship - it sucks cuz its only troubles always problems... you dont need a women -> you have PMO" . NOW PMO IS the PROBLEM and haha it was BEFORE but hided itself way too well. LIKE GOLLUM. Its scary . It seems every thought comes true whether its positive or negative.

    BUT I know that I make progress. Three years ago there was a time where I talked myself into "PMO - isnt a real problem or addiction" NOW I definitely know its an addiction and that I need to end it. And I actually try to do things to end it. What sometimes makes me feel even weaker because Im not able to do it - Im not as strong as I think I am. Thinking that I dont make progress is wrong and only serves the PMO-Monster to have another relapse due to my lack of motivation...
    Already had a Cannabis addiction and left that behind... But this PMO thing seems way harder ...
    OK
    I wanna find back my motivation now. This cant go further like the last days. I am able to do this better. I know that.

    Greets out

    Day 158

    One of the hardest days I’ve had this year; nothing triggered the battle, but as I was trying to write an essay I was inundated with urges - I’ve felt on edge all day. I ended up browsing the social media accounts of girls I used to talk to, sadly with a lustful heart. All day I’ve been fighting the urge to create a dating account online and flirt aimlessly, or open up an explicit website, the urges haven’t felt like this since I began my reboot.

    I’ve made it to bed without anything severe happening, but I must steel my mind and refrain from bringing back memories of old online dalliances from when I was a PMO addict - please pray for me.

    Day 6. Missed day 5 as I was really busy which is nice. Back onto day 6 though, not a good day. Urges are maybe a 5 of 10 atm and not liking it. In a weird void, like time is slowed down and I'm stuck between wanting to PMO or nothing at all Problem is anything I enjoy doing feels boring. Think I'll have a sleeping pill and get ready for bed. Might as well sleep if I'm bored and it's better than falling to the PMO demon.
