You can do this! Don't forget why you started! Imagine the feeling when you complete your mission! Do not watch the clock! Do what it does! Keep going!
I DID IT! Day 1/21 did I get you? But seriously, after 3 days on uncontrollable relapse, it feels good that I managed to go a day without one. Now, I need to try even harder to keep it up!
Day 1/21 completed! Damn it guys. I bet you all know how fucking hard it is to stop PMO after a relapse. The brain receptors were completely free and got the full dose of dopamine. I bet my body even released more of it this time, because I starved him from his beloved porn. I am only lucky that i never tried something like heroin, given how easily I got addicted to porn and video games.
1 day without pmo. Today was easy but I know it will get very difficult. "Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us." Ephesians 3:20 Good luck to everybody!
I think, if you already completed one whole day of this challenge, it counts as day 1, and not day 0.
Going strong...I've taken up meditation and started exercising. I've discussed with my wife and she's on board and supportive. So far, I've had very few urges and have been alone and working on a computer for most of the past few days, which is great. In the past, I would have PMOd for sure. Staying on track with the PMO, meditation, and exercise for the past week is starting to pay off. I can feel my willpower, self-esteem, and mood improving. I've always been super competitive, which led me to accomplish some great things, but also in some twisted way led me to want to be the best partier, having sex with dozens of women in college and generally being a serial cheater until I met my wife. When I focus those energies on positive things, good results usually come. It's staying on track for months and years that's the hard part.
I'm In for a second time, starting on Day 4! Day 4 - June 30 Some urges, woke up really aroused, lots of triggers and sexual thoughts... but I'm here!
