31 days in and i've relapsed guys...

31 days is a good achievement bro, go for a it again now with even more determination

 

Get back up and do it over. In the past I relapsed after 40 days. Now I started all over with a new mindset. ANd this time it'll be FOR GOOD. Avoid hanging around too much on social sites. I'm trying to cut down on computer use..doing only necessary things..like checking e-mails, and looking for school-related stuff. I too felt like shit when I relapsed. But then nobody's perfect so don't beat yourself up. Like someone here said it, when you're about to relapse, remind yourself of the reasons why you took on this challenge in the first place. Stay strong. Stay tuned.

 

I just relapsed after 33 days , so I know exactly how you feel , although a lot of people would tell you not to be hard on yourself , well ......
Here's what I wrote that day "I can't let this go like nothing had happened , I could have stopped , more than once , yet I didn't I can't just keep giving up when things get tough , I relapsed , and I gave up , no matter how much I try to deny it , but that is not as important as trying again , I will get up again and I will reboot."

 

Use that shame to your advantage. OK so you relapsed, don't dwell on it, just remember how s**t you're gonna feel next time you relapse. That's what works for me.

 

Don't feel down bro. I went 34 days and I relapsed. Imagine how I must of felt. 31 days is a great achievement! Chin up, learn from your mistakes and continue the journey!

 

I went 82 days and relapsed...I did MO....I have to pick myself up...Dont think about "I have another 30 days to go"....just get through today

 

Well your 31 day streak has weakened the PMO habit so even though you fell progress was made. The important thing is to get back up and not let it beat you in the long run. Quitting PMO is more like a marathon than a sprint and we're all rooting for you.
