    Hey ... I'm late to this (day two, after a successful day one and a not-so-successful day zero). If I can keep myself occupied I reckon I can make it.

    It would be great to have a target to shoot for. I mean, hopefully for good ... but if I can keep up with you guys that's a start.

    Have started a journal page separate to this, so I won't bore you with details ... but this could be a good first step for me!

    May be reason for knowing profession is ...that profession tells you how busy someone is or not. It can also tell if a person can keep himself busy completely. I am a student too. I have lots of free time and those lead to urges which I can't control. I have tried to leave this many times(offline). But this is my first time participation in online community . How do you keep yourself busy...or how do you control your urges ? Any tips, ideas or suggestions.
     


  7. I find this video very inspriring, maybe worth watching!

    don't give up on your dreams. i have some bad nights behind me because i wake up at 4am for no reason and then my mind has too much time to make fantasys. the most dangerous thing is an erection during sleep. it is to tempting to grab it and go back to where i was but i stop because i know how will i feel after and i don't want it to be like that

    Figured out how to get one of those counters, if anyone is interested ... just click on someone else's and it explains how to copy it into your own signature.

    Just picking up on the busy/not busy thing. I work for myself, and sometimes I have a client to answer to and other times not. When I'm busy PMO is a relief from stress. When I'm not busy, PMO is a relief from boredom. Obviously, the goal is for it to be neither - but the point is it doesn't really matter what you do. If you're mind is looking for a reason to indulge in PMO it will find it.

    Also - to the guys on Day 1 ... man, I'm only on Day 3 and I feel a (slight) boost to my confidence already. I was as miserable as hell on Day 1. But to quote George Harrison, it takes patience and time to do it right. Worst thing you can do now is relapse (which you probably will, this is my third time making a serious attempt at abstinence) and then sack this forum off because you think you're not strong enough. Hell, I could relapse today - I just don't know. But what I do know is that given the handful of chats I've had on here over the last few days, I'm not alone.

    So, chin up, soldiers.

    By the way ... greetings to Omitfoto from China. I'm just back from a visit there. Amazing country. Miss the hotpot already ... :)

    I re-read that and I shouldn't have said probably will ... I should have said possibly will. Just trying to get across that failure isn't the end - it's a road bump.

    Good news is I didn't today. I painted a wall instead. I also tried to mow the lawn but run over the power cord, and that was the end of that. So I came back inside and cleaned the kitchen.

    I mean, like, what the hell! I spent the whole of Monday on a PMO binge when I could have been doing all this - haha.

    You've got to see the funny side of this ...

    ^ Not sure if it will be the same for you. But when I watch P - I feel quite depressed and think as you "WHY did I do it?". I don't know... it just feels bad after :( .
    But when I don't do it, and when I don't watch it - I get more confident at a degree.
    Just stay strong I know you can do it! ;)




    One more thing, a general question to you all. There is this program called K9 webprotection, is it safe to install and use? It might help me, if it really is legit.

    7 days now, without PMO, which is good! :)

    Stay strong everyone!

    I want to start, but I don't think I can do it. I just jerked off to a bathtub blowjob porn video but couldn't get it hard during the real one I paid for! I think I will start tomorrow. As ridiculous as it sounds, I do not know what to do with the spare time. I usually watch porn every day and multiple times every day.
