Day 1/3 The necessity of my urges is an illusion. Sitting in the discomfort is the only path to mindfulness. It's only been a single day but I'm done making excuses for myself forever. I am going to get clean. This is the one and I'm happy to be supported by you lovely folks.
Hello again. I've relapsed like many of you here, guys. My recent progress so far: 3 days, 2 weeks, 70 days(my best streak). I feel very bad but at the same time I'm really happy because my overall progress is great. ~4 years ago I've used to fap 3-5 times per day and stare at porn for up to half a day. Right now on average I would say it's ~3h per session 1 time per 10days-2weeks. Nevertheless with upcoming NoNutNovember and beyond Monk Mode here we go! Day 0/3
Day 2/3: I had a lot of trouble sleeping last night. Usually I use PMO to self-soothe, but now that I can't do that, I'm learning more about what makes me feel lonely or anxious or sad, and what those feelings are like. Resensitization. I am glad to feel this discomfort. These feelings are mine and they are welcome. I need to process them in order to become more healthy. This is priority number one.
Hi! I'm here to start this challenge. Why? Because I need to do away with long time life destroyer. If I don't stop now I'll simply be wasting many more years of my life. 3 days, here we come! Day 1/3
Day 3/3: As a noble man once said: "Not today!" I'm excited for No Nut November. I'm not going to sacrifice long-term joy for ten minutes of transient pleasure. I've made a contract with myself, and I am honouring it. I may not have the strongest willpower or be as mindful as I'd like, but I am honour-bound. I had thoughts of fantasy yesterday, and taking a break just to take deep breaths and check in with myself really helped. I'd like to learn more about mindfulness and make it a bigger part of my life, so that I can respond to obsessive thoughts in a more productive way and really understand myself better. If you read this, thank you. This community's support means a lot to me. I couldn't have done it without your endless empathy. I have had so many false starts and failures, but I know that I'm finally on the healing path thanks to your patience and encouragement. Thank you so much.
