    I am very close to breaking have broken my no porn streak and trying to keep my no PMO streak going. Urges have been driving me crazy and I work in an office so on my own computer in my own office. The urges are louder than they have ever been. It is like a voice inside that is screaming and I just want to bash my head into a wall to make it stop, not actually going to do that though. Typing on here definitely helps, anyone got any words or encouragement. I need them not and will give back to the community in kind as well.

    Thank you guys didn't break but my no p counter is now at zero, oh well back on the horse again. My no pmo or mo is still strong but was afraid it wasn't going to be. I have never worked so hard to not do something.

    Please be careful with porn as it will eventually lead you to MO.. I once abstained from MO for about 2 months or even more I don't remember but I was peeking at porn videos/images from time to time and edge.. One day I relapsed and hit rock bottom more than ever! My advise try to abstain from porn too. It will be difficult but it's worth it!

    From my experience also, I find porn harder to quit than masturbation! It's very addictive! Read the book "Porn Circuit" under my signature, it's just 47 pages and it will make you despise porn and understand its horrible effects on you!

    I did fall off the horse again, once I saw porn I couldn't get it out of my mind. All kinds of images and things my cravings wanted to search more took over. Once I relapsed I didn't do it again and I am going strong right now. GodMyWitness I will read that book today thank you for giving me a link to it. Thank you all for the support I won't let you down today, I will go one day at a time.

    The day before yesterday was really difficult but I was able to pull through. I found one of my old phones and looked through it. Looked through some old websites that I visited and looked at porn but then turned it off. I told myself a lie and that that shouldn't count against me. So my cravings had already found a way in. I went to sleep and the next day my cravings told me that we can probably look and just not say anything, I'm sure everyone has been there. And unfortunately I bought into the lie. I kept trying to stop yesterday, watching then turning it off then watching again and turning it off until I caved.

    You're being honest with yourself though, Nitsuj. Keeping your head on straight and seeing through the many rationalizations that our addictions present to us is a major accomplishment. The more you see through those illusions, the better equipped you are to defeat them :)

    The Willpower Process will help in those situations. You need to train your mind to ease away the urges while your at the office, that way you won't be slammed with an urge to peek at home. I struggle with the EXACT same thing. While my PMO counter is creeping towards 50, I had several session of peeking at a gorgeous model on Twitter, which in turn leads to edging. So far I have held off a full on relapse.

    As you start your next streak, consider keeping track of every day for a month. Record days you relapse and days you edge. Don't get so wrapped up in seeing the counter number go up. I tried that for a year and a half and it never worked.

    Thank you all and I need to be aware when my mind says just looking won't hurt because I know that isn't me saying that. @FreedomFlight I do like my job but it can be stressful and throughout my life I had porn to turn to when I was stressed. So breaking that and facing the stress with knowing that it is just something everyone in life deals with is what I need to keep in my head. I know if it wasn't for porn my life would be better in so many areas.
