  1. Fucked up. But I have some good news. I wasn't totally "into" this relapse. Don't get me wrong, that's no excuse and I still regret messing up my streak but I think I'm making tangible progress: as I was going about relapsing I started to think about the women I was watching. Some of them had this glint in their eye that, clear as day, gave away that they didn't really want to be there. I read a story about women getting forced into porn through vague "modelling" ads, that turn out to be porn shoots, and I think one of the videos I watched was a prime example of that.

    Although I suppressed the thought, I felt kind of sick about what I was doing. I've never felt that way during a relapse before: I've always shut my rational brain off 100% and focused on the physical sensation. Maybe this is a step in the right direction of not *wanting* to watch porn instead of achieving brute-force abstinence. I certainly hope so.

    The last 3 or 4 streaks have all ended at 20 or 21 days for me. Need to figure out why this is such a "magic number". What am I doing wrong and what can I do better this time?

  4. Most people would say that you shouldn't count that as a relapse. I now have to disagree with this because, well, I have my own method, and my method says not to do that.

    I thought of a very interesting idea that I thought of a month ago: Instead of hating yourself for relapsing, hate the source: Porn. I'm active on a lot of journals. If you want more info about my ideas, you can check out these journals.

    Don't argue with my idea because it's been working for about 31 days.

    Hey man! If you want to strenghten that reason for not watching porn again, i recomend the netflix documentary Hot Girls Wanted (not the series). It's all about the exploitative nature of a large section of the Porn industry and how it "breaks" the performers. Caution though as it contains a bunch of triggers

    Best of luck

    of course not. but what should be considered is what made you open the site in the first place, what boundaries did you cross? what triggers plan did you not obey? take measures right now bro cause the desire to watch shit will happen again.
