    Paying attention to what triggers me to PMO. It seems like the more time I spend away from PMO, the more frequent and obvious the temptations hit me. The only thing saving me is that I recognize and and take action immediately. I have to remain vigilant. All forms of media have the potential to be a trigger. Might be time to find a new hobby. Also I'm not sure if I'm using day counter properly.

    That’s apsolutely true for me too.
    I am addicted to porn and i even avoid the porn addiction thread in the forums because it has too many triggers for me.

    I'm finding that I can't even scroll through my news feed on Facebook for 30 seconds without being triggered by some picture, it doesn't even have to be that provocative:(

    I can relate to this one.
    Everytime I know Im about to PMO I have a cold shower. But Ive had 3 cold showers today and its getting a bit ridiculous! no doubt cold showers work, anyone got any other solutions when triggered?

    3 showers a day isn’t a good idea. Stomach cruches can have the same effect, because all the blood leaves your private parts and go to your belly/arms.

    I've been keeping the t.v. off as much as possible and finding other things to fill in that time. Doing dishes, laundry, cleaning or making something different for dinner that I've never made. Today I went to my friends auto shop and helped him for about 6 hours. Anything to keep me active where I would otherwise be thinking PMO

    Crunches are a good idea. Thanks for that. Anything that makes me wait for at least a few minutes is generally helpful
