    - Consequences : urges/ thoughts - BRACE ; innuendo in work - sacrifice the laughs & change the subject while keeping the humour; nocturnal emissions - handwash soiled clothes ; looking a triggers on tv - no tv/ streaming for a workweek ( doing this anyway); looking up actresses - detox diet 3 days; actively fishing for erotica - reset my counter; P - do el purgatorio de san ptrcio - Nocturnal emissions - key now is to remember that it's done so any urges are mental not physical.

    Day 2 morning check-in
    I woke up sick today and I'm going to test for covid at noon.
    This is not good, obviously, but at least it makes me less tempted to relapse.

    Day 28.

    Calm days are over. Almost relapsed today. I don't know what to say. These days just happen. Danger can be very sudden.

    I don't know. I am not in a mood to do anything. Nothing sounds fun, except maybe for pmo. Again, these days happen. I just have to push through.

    Well, I will go as long as I will go.



    :emoji_palm_tree:

    Hard mode + no shutting blockers down - day 28.
    No coffee - day 28.

    Checking in Fellowship Friends!


    142 Days Free of PMO

    Better again day today, I've been taking it easy after work and giving myself a break to recoup. Assessing the last three weeks, I've been pushing myself too much. Not enough rest/days off to sustain the levels of stress I was putting myself through. Ive revamped a plan to fix this. Thankfully, my mind is in a better place now to do this.

    Stay Strong!

    @MS PBH There is nothing wrong with noticing the beauty of a woman. Acknowledge it when you do, but stop things there. You don't need to add on a whole porn fantasy to that, this is where practicing the skill of interrupting your thoughts helps. A thought that pops into your mind should be treated like a cloud passing by. Look at it, acknowledge it and let it pass by. You don't engage with it. As for stress, Wim Hof Breathing, diaphragmatic breathing, meditation, exercise etc. All good ways to channel stress. Also, write things down in a journal. Try to see things from different perspectives.

    Day 1

    I had a close call today, but made it. I will survive the night!

    A bit of an off day as I broke the routine I was creating significantly. In other words I didn't do a lot of things I was supposed to do... But I think it's fine. I slept in the last couple days which I don't like, but I also acknowledge that I was behind on sleep so maybe it was needed.

    I learned that anger is strongly linked to impatience. So we should train patience and suffering will decrease.

    feel you

    Day 3
    Yesterday was a difficult day. Being sick made everything hard to do. I'm positive for covid, which sucks, gonna have to stay home the whole week. Also, had an urge to search for some P pictures in reddit, but I managed it. I think this was my first little battle in this streak and I'm happy I won it, since I've been losing all of them lately.

    Well my day is my favourite number!
    So... Day 333! :-D
    Again nothing special here. Once again i ll have one year journey without PMO.
    After that is a real challenge for me. Two times i reached day 365 and i fell into porn.
    Something, a voice, told me inside my head that it's ok after a year. Nothing will go wrong. Apparently that didn't happen. I have to fight for a month at least to get back...
    Guys this is not another battle.
    This is war. Never ends. Stay strong. Don't fall again! Never!
    In the end only one will survive!
    You or pornography!
