  1. Sitting in bed dealing with an urge so I thought I might as well post and distract myself and gain some info from other people.

    Anyway, whoever is reading this List the things you do when you have a bad urge. You never know who this might help in the future.

    Go outside, somewhere public. Most people don't have the urge to jack off in front of others. lol. But seriously, socializing will help keep your inner demons at bay.

    Go outside, as away as possible from the place which can cause me to give in and redirect my energy towards something else like exercise.

    Right now my urge has been on me for like all day. I went out and walked. Walked for 1-2 hrs today total, in nature. I listened to a meeting. I tried to talk, too. I participated on some threads here. I had dinner. I'm still really strugglin'! IDK WTF to do to make it go away. I know when I give in to it, I will not feel relief after, just empty, or strung out. So that's not the answer. I guess just being with what I'm feeling now. I can't go to meetings because they're too late, and too far away. I don't really like that environment, anyway, and there is too much smoke. I am resisting the urges as hard as I can. If I end up slipping, I slip. I can't really blame myself or be too hard on myself. Some people are very insensitive and mean, and when they come my way, it's just not fair. I'm very sensitive and I'm gonna get hurt by them over and over, and keep feeling so much pain.

    Also its almost like my urges actually are timed right before the greatest upheavals... If I'd have given into PMO this afternoon I'd never have encountered the stuff that I encountered this evening. Some of the conflict and pain. So my urges were intuitively activating and trying to protect me from that pain. Why the F should I have to feel that pain? I shouldn't. People shouldn't be so hurtful. So many sharp edges in this world. Not fair.

    Since my last relapse it’s been close to 3 weeks, I was doing great, close to 3 months. This is my 2nd attempt and this time around it’s been much easier. Keep strong and you will succeed. You’ll gain your sensitivity back, your sex drive will increase, you’ll gain a bit of girth and length, your testicles become heavier and most importantly, you feel 100% better. This is based on my experience.

    I think about something else. I replace those sexual thoughts with wholesome thoughts. There are images I can set my mind on that will kill sexual images.
