  8. Well, when you get back to 403 days I’m sure this time you’ll be a lot wiser and cautious about breaking the streak. I broke my 99 day streak on something stupid too. That was more than 8 months ago. It’s time to get back and stay strong this time!

    Okay so when I started watching p and long before that i started m. I have tried many things like tracing the original of my thoughts, identifying triggers,and neutralizing them but still the neutralizing part is very confusing because unless and until you keep faith in that idea no matter what that is will be in your head, pornography is all about faith because it depends on how thoughts you invest in it and it all it is if you buy their idea then you're the biggest fool. Pornography is made in such way that it contradicts reality.
    Personally when I started watching it I had plans to stop and I did stopped between 2015-16 but I later restarted again in 2017 and from then things got messier.
    So you said something about techniques so here are my employed techniques-
    1.mindfulness
    2.realism and unbiased query
    3.Refined Beliefs
    4.i ask Everytime myself do I want to do it?is this all it!
    5 .respect women after they are same as us and those women from porn I think they are the biggest victims some might be abused

  11. Day 34/99 (March 20, 2019)

    Struggling with urges last night and today. It’s time once again to prove my commitment to overcoming this addiction.

  12. It sounds like you have a good list of things that can help. Mindfulness is a big one for me. I have to pay attention to what I allow my mind to be occupied by. Thoughts are directly linked to actions. So if all I’m thinking about is how to PMO, it is almost certain that I’ll be resetting or relapsing soon. Sometimes those thoughts can be obsessive. Like impossible to stop thinking about. It is in that moment that we must decide what we’re going to do about it. Do we give in to the thoughts? Or do we find a way to escape those thoughts through distractions. So we come to this fork in the path ahead of us. One takes a lot more effort and isn’t as alluring. At that point, it comes down to willpower. How badly do you really want to change? It is in this precise moment that we find out how committed we are. Do we really want to be chained down by this addiction? What is so amazing about the two minutes of pleasure and the two weeks of misery that follow? Our logic and reasoning can be clouded over by that dopamine craving. It’s powerful but we must remember that it does not overpower us. We make the final decision whether or not we cave in to those feelings or if we take the higher road and run far away from them and live to fight another day.
