    Damn it! I had a bout of depression yesterday, due to unrelated (to PMO) factors, and relapsed after 4 days.

    This challenge is excellent because it requires introspection and I get to learn much more about the peculiarities of my cognitive processes.

    Anyway, the main obstacle that contributes to my PMO addiction is the emotional instability, if I succeed in achieving better emotional stability then the way to freedom will be clear.

    Tension itself is the trigger, the myriad of factors merely set the trigger but the trigger itself is tension (psycho-physical). So one can eliminate the trigger by eliminating tension or, to use a better metaphor, by eliminating tension one destroys the vice from its root.

    Hey there dude. I recommend this to everyone. Get active. Join a gym. Start running or cycling. Anything that gets your heart pumping. Exercise improves mood and releases tension. Try it and see if that helps. :)

    Great idea. It is on my to-do list, I just need to overcome my laziness and self-defeating attitude :)

    This is one of the reasons I decided to stop PMO, namely to restore a more positive outlook and a more 'engaging' attitude towards being/life..
