    I'm in, too. First day of success. Of course, I fapped 3 times yesterday so of course the first day following will be easy lol.

  6. 2.5 days in for me. I'm excited for us all to get to the end of the week and then move on from there. This is the first step to being cured of this addiction.

    I have made it almost 24 hrs. I realize how predictable I have become with my fap habits. It is like there is a timer in my brain that goes off during my regular fap times. Today at 4PM I had this urge to fap that came from nowhere and I realized that over the last few years I have trained myself to always fap at 4Pm because I am alone in the house then. It was very hard to ignore the impulse, but somehow I made it.

    Day 2 Successful. Feels good. Moreso than the physiological sense of energy that I am regaining, I have a bit of confidence knowing that I'm making a conscious choice to control my impulses. Have had a few moments where I feel younger again.

    Almost a day since I restarted my pledge, in this challenge, for a week of no PMO. Had a couple of urges watching Survivor last night. They do a great job casting that show! Aside from that I've been keeping myself very busy.

    Glad to hear the progress everyone else is making.

    Day 7. Clean. Temping tonight to look stuff up.

    Today when I was incredibly anxious and din't know what to do with myself I had a breakthrough..I started writing again. I haven't written poetry in a LONG time and as soon as I did, my anxiety and urges went away. In addition, i am playing music TONS more and I cannot stop. My creativity is definitely coming back.

    I am also dancing 2-3 times a day for 15 minutes to a half hour. Free form dancing.No sense of purpose in it. The key is to let all of my energy out and let my body go limber as it wills. It relieves my depression, anxiety, and the feeling of my sexual "energy" being stuck in my pelvis and legs. Try it!

    Grats on 7 days backonthewagon! How'd you manage that?
     
  18. Kept myself distracted as much as possible. When urges hit I try to imagine them as a photograph, then just imagine throwing the photograph in a bin and burning it.
    Sounds stupid, I know, but it helps take the edge off them for me.

    Affirmations helped as well: I just basically stand in front of the mirror and list all the good things this journey has/ will bring me out loud. My neighbours think I'm a nutter, but I'm too happy to care :)
