Checking in Saiyans!

14 Days Free of PMO.

Stronger urges this morning, alongside porn flashbacks. My mind is starting to pull me slightly. I still will not give in to it, I'm interrupting the thought as it pops up and redirecting it. I also successfully kept to my plans of yesterday, regardless of how I felt.

Today, I feel better although I have a lingering headache, which presumably is from the whole Vertigo recovery process. Once more, I will keep to my schedule today. I intend to mediate, workout, daily exposure to my fears and some deep work.

Keep training!

 

Felt an urge and came to the forum to post instead of give in. If it continues further I will shut down all computers and have a cold shower.

 

Day 10 double digits!

So close before Oozaru :/
Relapsing is a part of the path so learn from this failure and rise again!

 

Day 11 - Low-Class Warrior

 

Day 136!

@kingdawoo, your progress is not gone. Rise again, you can do this and watch out for the chaser effect.

 

Checking in Saiyan's!

15 Days Free of PMO.

I had a stressor that occurred in my life yesterday, which sent forth some undesired urges. I'm happy to say that I managed myself well during that time of worry.

The wins are not avoiding situations. The real wins are from coming face to face with the emotion or uncomfortable situation that is before you. Managing it effectively, not letting it build up. This is a huge part of how we overcome addiction. We must rewire the way we handle things and cultivate a new and healthier way of living, living in a real world.

I had said this back at my previous streak and I will say this again:

How long did it take you to become a porn addict? I imagine many years for most of us, quite a bit of practice. How do you overcome PMO addiction? Through study and practice.

Today I become an Elite Warrior.

Keep training!


@Against_the_demon_in_myself well done on channeling your urge elsewhere man!

@kingdawoo Rise again warrior!

 

Yesterday was very tough I came close to failure a few times but managed to resist.
A few takeaways:
1. As @Redemptionisrequired said in different words, we have trained our stress response over many years to seek out porn for relief.
We must train ourselves to handle negative feelings / stressors in healthy ways.
2. I felt lonely yesterday and no one was available to go out so I stayed in feeling sad. This is not correct.
The correct thing is to treat myself well. It would have been better if I had gone on a walk on my own!
I don't need permission or company from someone else to do something nice or treat myself well.
3. I noticed that I spend a lot of time on screens browsing away. I am hooked on the internet.
It didn't use to be that way as a child and teen. Sadly studying, music, news, entertainment, communication, even dating are all consolidated in digital devices and apps now.
I rejected dating through apps because its shit and I feel happier for it.
I'll find a way to do all these other things in a more healthy way as well and reclaim my ability to be present, focused and calm.
Addiction sucks. It hurts and I don't to suffer from it anymore. Keep fighting Saiyans!

 

Congratulations with your new rank !
