Starting off

Hello All,

If you read all of this, you have my thanks and appreciation, if you don't that's fine. TLDR: Day 1, fully committed, let's help each other along the way.
__________________________________________________________________

This is my day 1. This is my new beginning. This is my ground zero. This is where I begin.

I've had multiple signs leading up to this, it was only a matter of time before I finally pulled the plug on porn. Here I am.

Been using since I was a kid (I just turned 28), and even though I have the majority of my life in order (job, home, car) as long as I have this porn addiction, I'll never be truly free and capable of finding a girl and starting a family (And I won't bring a girl into this while fighting this). That's my end game as of now.

I've made improvements in my life to cut back, but never to cut it out. That ends now. Today is Day 1 out of Day 30, which will then be Day 60, and then Day 90, until I lose count of this and finally move on from this curse once and for all.

I've set many parameters in place; my house is as practically porn free as can be. Web and security filters on all devices, no saved collections of any material. I've reduced my social media footprint so that unless someone is personally messaging me, I'm not accessing anything anymore. That was a big one for me. I'm burning this b*tch right back to the ground and starting fresh again. To do that I've cut everything out.

I'm replacing old habits like porn, video games, TV, junk foods with new habits such as: Classical music, reading, spiritual reflection, intermittent fasting, gym, and of course perusing nofap and YBOP to learn, to always learn, and to continue learning. I'm also using Fortify, which I'm sure has been mentioned on here. I find it a useful tool in managing urges and temptations. Of course I'm not an advocate for them and instead am simply revealing what works for myself.

Any questions please fire away.

Thanks,

 

Thanks Alpha...will definitely take up your suggestion on the music

 

Appreciate the follow up, yeah I think I'll be starting that up soon. My progress now is miles ahead over when I made this initial thread. I'll hopefully talk about that in this journal.

Cheers

 

Thanks!

I've got my journal up and running
