Day 16 done. Day 17 in progress. My porn issue has always been binging so it is not uncommon for me to get this far and then have a massive binge. However, I am trying to take each day as it comes and have decided strongly that I don't ever want to go there again. That's not to say if I do it will be the end of the world because I will keep fighting this till the day I die... But I think its important to make a real stand against this stuff. I obviously really want this to be it though for good. I am focusing on my thoughts and keeping them in check because prior to a relapse the battle is in my mind... By the time I actually do relapse, fantasy and unhealthy sexual thoughts are already being dwelled upon. Try to catch these thoughts and just acknowledge them, don't judge them or yourself. If it's just a thought and has no real power over us, and doesn't define who we are!!
Доброе утро фапстронауты ) И так, сегодня 5-й день без PMO) тяжело, но в целом состояние не плохое. Good morning fapstronauts) And so, today is the 5th day out of 90 without PMO) hard, but overall not bad.
I agree with you 100% It all starts with thoughts, and it is very difficult to get rid of them. but we can do it!)
Day 8 of this streak. No more P, no more peeking. Instead I'm increasing confidence and self-love. I built this reality, now I will build a better one. I joined this forum 142 days ago. Of those 142 days, I was 130 days without PM.
Be careful with pictures and videos that are on the border... That's my biggest pitfall for sure. I look at some pictures or videos of fully dressed beautiful women, which deep inside I still do to distract me from my anxiety, and it still feeds into my unconscious belief that beauty and sexuality are things that I can only experience from a distance, on a screen. But I tell myself that it's okay, it's different. So next time maybe they're wearing a little bit less clothes and maybe I start touching myself a bit, but I still tell myself it's not PM... and so on and so on. Don't be a fool like I've been in the past!
Yes, well put! We dwell upon these fantasies until the point that we have to see them on a screen. Let's take a deep breath everytime they come up, acknowledge them, then shift your attention to something else and observe as those thoughts slip away again.
Thanks you so much really for this answer. I promise you day by day I will never see this kind of content. Congratulations for your week of freedom!!!
3/90 - Difficult to keep my mind free of sexual thoughts and eyes above solders when seeing attractive women but I'm aware which is a big deal. I mentally yell STOP when I catch my mind or eyes objectifying women.
Day 44. today I tried to checked out some pics of hot girls on Instagram. At first I was in control. Then i noticed my mind was starting to get hooked and wanting to see more. So I went off Instagram. So currently am feeling ok. But am impressed that I have gained much control over sexual urges and control over which content can stimulate me.
Be careful my friend!! I think it's better to avoid to see these pics... But congratulations a new day of victory...
