Day 7, Take Two.

Whew.

This has honestly been a pretty huge adventure for me, and a really emotional one too. I've gone through some really intense mood swings, which is a welcome change from my usual apathy. Sure, yesterday I relapsed on alcohol and nicotine, but I'm choosing to do good things for myself more often whilst fending off severely low self-esteem thought spirals. All in all, I think I'm doing well. I've gone from masturbating one to four times a day to not masturbating at all for seven days straight. I denied a potential opportunity for sex today–not sure if the action came from a place of resignation, but I know a large part of that intention was that I want to maintain my celibacy.

I'm trying to stay humble and not throw too many tantrums at myself. It's hard. But I'm working on it.

Bleh. That's all I've got today. As always, I appreciate the support from this community, and hope all of you are doing well too.
