  I'm now 40+, but suspect that the main issues are from childhood and/or genetics. We can't improve unless we need/want to.

    Hopefully your childhood was super. Maybe just access to P etc? It's a big moment when we see extravagant P as a teen. I just think it was a thrill in an otherwise unhappy life for me.

    Yeah. Most of it, anyway. Perhaps it has to do with the fact that no matter how many friends i make, I have always preferred isolation. That's my working theory for now.

    Isolation can be ok. It depends on country, where in country, genes maybe. And there are different phases in one's life. Keep it simple: do the overall best thing for now..

  It took about 6 weeks of depression and anxiety to get over my former marijuana problem. I should remember that with PMO and booze.

    Although I have found that when I have taken two weeks off booze, I feel ok. PMO? We shall see

  A slow decline into bland depression today, but luckily a couple of moments of beauty. I did the helpful things.

  Controlled the depression today. Worked hard and pretended. Looking forward to a little exercise and meditation in the morning.

    Depression, anxiety, some anger. All there, but we don't have to let those things define us.

  Controlled my medium-level panic attacks today. All day. Told myself there was no other option. Act normal..

    Yea you always survive it no matter what, its just a panic attack it will come and it will go. Best to just act normal and go about your day.

  If you feel stuck in a repetitive cycle, at least you're trying to get out of it. Small steps, but they must be done.

    It doesn't refer to masturbating his opponent, as the link might suggest.

    This is also mentioned:
    
    " ahead of the big fight, the 31-year-old said: “I’m doing a lot of things I didn’t before." "
    
    That said, we can safely say that this is simply innovation on his part.
    Just because it doesn't suit us doesn't mean it's not applicable for others living completely different lifestyles.
    
    Even so, it's moreso a trial than an established routine for this guy.

    The "I'm doing a lot of things...' might also be just psychological, including lying. Who knows! What we need is scientific studies (with twins) to find out the facts on this topic. Personally I don't feel like fighting after cracking one (or 7) out.

  Weekend dips into edging becoming less and I now bounce back quicker, especially with exercise, diet and meditation. Need to now fix this.

  Ask yourself: 'Is this behaviour helpful?'. Both yes and no are powerful things to be aware of.

    True. Weird thing with answer yes is to recognize "Yes, this is helpful, it benefits me" and still not doing it on a regular basis... Why?

  My only note to myself today was about the (small) positives. They are the hand-holds on the mountain. Kind of a mental trick on myself.

  Work week done. 1 or 2 hour periods daily of confidence and focus. People really do react differently. #AURA

  Trying to note the positives more. So, today I had a calm and focused 2-hour period at work, ate ok and did some exercise and meditation.

    Today I noticed I came out my my depression for a moment and I was happy talking about somthing I prevesouly noted to remember to put on my graditued list, and I know if I never noted it the conversation would have ended much quicker and I would have only felt slight pleasure for a second and I would forget about it.

  My physio told me the best exercise to counteract the negative effects of sitting too much is to stand up! So I'm standing right now. Easy.

  Work today: 'I can't do this' was weak, but 'I don't like this' was strong. Neither of them won.

  Video chat with a sexy friend on Saturday, peek at P on Sunday. Now feel confused and even teary. Exercise, meditation, diet, rest, work..

    accept that we have these feelings and the sexy friend or similar situations can easily make us loose our balance. But we don't need to flee into pmo. Just stay with the feeling.

  Well I had a brief touch on Saturday but actually lost interest pretty quick. So, at least no edging this weekend.
