Another failure.

just broke that circle, think about it just think about what you do whenever a relapse occur,
it is always after you watched too much YT? quit it.
it's always after you finished your work/school? set up a habit to run always after you finish
you have to watch into yourself to understand the main reason of your behavior and then act to correct. I suggest you to start self-reflective meditation, it's hard and in the beginning you won't notice difference but once you master it you will be albe to see yourself clearly and stop this

 

Agree with above.
First, it's not hopeless. Get off that "it's useless to even try" bus. A failure can actually help you succeed if you approach it correctly. When did you fail? What time? Where were you? What video or image was one that did it? Were you tempting yourself (just scrolling through pretty girls' pics) or did you just go to a porn site and jerk off?
Write it all down. Times, dates, reasons.
Keep track of it.
You'll see patterns. And you'll know better how to hit that urge with a folding chair.
You cannot be passive in fighting this addiction.
You gotta get pissed off - not at yourself - at that fucking demon in your head. You have to treat it as terribly as it has treated you.
But if you give up, he's got you by the balls.

 

As a person who has been beaten up by that cycle over and over again, I feel you buddy. It is true that the endless cycle seems so hard to break, that you just can not cease to quit this bad habits no matter what, and that you feel hopeless about it. But remember, you have a choice my friend. Would you rather give in to that failure and let it bring you down even further or you choose to rise up and deal with it again ? I have been through days like that when I relapsed at the same time in the same period of time and it was shitty as hell. I hit rock bottom with my soul, self-esteem, feeling horrible, disgusted about my self only to find out I have no other option but to get up and deal with the thing I started. When I hit rock bottom, I usually think like this: I have nothing to lose anymore, why wouldn't I give another go to fix this problem again ? Relapse is failure, and failure is what makes us succeed buddy. We are only successful at what we are willing to fail. Stay strong and mental my friend.

 

How long have you been trying? I have had many a relapse and with each one I seem to get stronger. I learned from each one and now I'm on another attempt. It definately gets easier for me after I've broken the 7-14 day period where the urges are strong. I'm not saying I will never relapse again though.

 

Maybe a year or so. I'm currently trying another attempt after one really shitty relapse and I want this time to be strong. So how have you learned from your relapse ?

 

Today,I started 1 Month Challenge

 

Maybe start with a goal of not using porn. Once you have a handle on that then take on M.

 

Relapsed myself last night. What I've learned from this one is however bad you feel, don't do it. I was stressed by another ridiculous situation I got myself in. I was made to feel like I wasn't trying hard enough by someone who didn't understand. Should have seen it coming and dealt with it better. Instead, I ended up relapsing. Should have meditated or listened to some music. Now everything seems very bad. Tomorrow will be better I hope.

 

I am sure tomorrow will be better for you. Even if it is a struggle, a day without porn is a good day.
Evenings are the easiest time to relapse - will power is down and your mind isn't as alert as it was in the morning.
You sound like you have a good understanding of the situation and you are not a quitter.

 

Thanks for the message. Yes, at least when I relapse I know exactly how porn makes me feel and that its effects are real. My mind tries to trick me into thinking it has no effect but I know every time I relapse that it dims the light in my...soul.

 

relapsed. So weird. But thank for the above advice. I have not payed attention to myself to find out why and how of my own situation.

 

I've discovered "Universal Man" videos on youtube after i relapsed after relapse. And i can say it works for me so far. I still feel like empty tyre sometimes. I eat healthy and hit the gym when i can. Every time i get an urge i now have this higher voice saying to me: Don't do it man, you feel worse afterwards be the man you admire to be!

Just listen some of his videos they are awesome and give a lot of support and reason.

 

I had this problem too. I've given my PC, smartphone and laptop to a family member who is keeping them somewhere, where I can't find them. I'm on my 13th day and the urges/temptations are minimal. Give it a go, you have nothing to lose, and everything to gain from being PC free for a month.
