    So I'm on day 5 and I've been going strong, working out and staying away from triggers... Today though I've just been feeling really depressed and I'm thinking about watching porn. The only thing keeping me going is thinking about my goal of staying PMO free for more than 30 days before my birthday which is next month on the 22nd. After that I'm gonna go for my next goal which is 90 days. I'm taking it a day at a time but I will get there if I stay strong and keep my goal in mind.

    Welcome, brother. Depression will come and go regardless of whether you fap or not. And the moment the orgasm wears off, the depressive thoughts will return, and perhaps worse if you feel guilty about having fapped in the first place. Find a distraction for when you feel the urge. Take up a new language, a new sport, or just get active in this community (my personal preference) during times when I would be most likely to fap (that would be every time I am awake and alone) and you will be surprised how much things can change. Good luck and welcome again to the community!

    Hey guys... Quick update. After 6 days of holding out and staying strong, I fell in to the PMO trap. I'm so fucking disappointed in myself and I feeling super down right now. I mean I'm not watching on a daily basis anymore (right now I'm able to go 6 to 7 days) which is a bit of a victory. But still I'm very disappointed.

    But hey fuck it, there's no point in beating myself up. I'm gonna just reset and move forward.

    Don't beat up yourself. You're new to this journey. Now that you have had to reset, don't go about the same exact steps as you did before. Analyse what led to the lapse and make an adjustment to compensate. Your journey is still on track. Stay the course.

    Thanks for the motivation bro. I'm definitely gonna stay the course coz one thing I know for sure is that I can't keep on living like this. Always going to PMO when I'm feeling down bored or lonely, I mean it feels good in the moment, but the second you're done you just feel worse than you did before. I don't want that shit anymore.
