Doing Too Much

So right now, im having second thoughts on giving up PMO. and i know its probably just my brain trying to justify an addiction. You see, i recently gave up alcohol as well only 4 days ago. I always get myself into trouble this way, i try to do too much. what i should do is tackle one addiction for a month or a period of time, then when i feel clean from that to reevaluate and move on the next one. Instead, i chose to also abstain from pmo for a week and then hopefuly go on from there. I start thinking about the future. like worrying: will i go crazy in 3 weeks time? or go on a crazy binge where i indulge in both. And i know its irrational because my challenge for pmo is only for 7 days. Maybe 2 weeks. But thats just what i do, i overthink everything as complicated and nothing ends up being the "right time". Anyone else have this problem?

 

Also, if its anything id rather relapse on, its masturbation because im also an alcoholic and Im NOT going back to that.

 

Yea, i know the real evil is not masturbation. What i meant was to abstain from masturbation like as the goal of this exercise. Its just pornography that i don't want to abuse. But yea, @Lanius. I agree with you completely. i see how unnatural and harmful pornography and alcoholism are and that is why i am making this goal of abstaining to from both. Anyways, i appreciate the reply and yea i did journal and remind myself that im strong enough to do this. thanks for the support!
