Hey all, Day 4/90. Checking in. Still crushing it! Haven’t felt the urge or desire to PMO. In the past I’ve underestimated the value and power of community. I now see the value. Tackling a challenge together with others on the same mission creates this environment of camaraderie, support, belonging, and accountability. It’s a worthwhile journey. Why? Because your life is valuable. Nothing is more valuable than life itself and the time that it consists of. Choose life each moment and know that PM is a course that is designed to steer you off course, destroy you physically, mentally, emotionally, and drag you into the pit of hell. If you chose poorly today, do NOT wallow in your misery and focus on the failure. Mistakes and failure are just an opportunity for learning and getting better. Pick yourself back up, brush off the dirt, put the car back in drive, and get back to making good choices. Commit to day 1 again. In fact, realize that each moment that passes is day 1! Great job everyone! Let’s make it to 90! To Your Success, Lamboskovich

Day 15/90. Another good day. I'm tempted to sit back and look in awe at my progress already, but I know I'm far from where I want to be! I'm also sure I will feel even better than now, even though I don't know how that is going to be possible! Still I'm taking everything one day at a time, and I've found it helpful to not get too upset at little things throughout the day or when I don't get as much done as I want to. I'm sure I will be able to be even more productive the longer I can stay away from PMO!
Day 2 completed without any single thought of porn & mastrubate. Lot more to come. Good morning all. Have a good day.
Lying in bed getting ready to read The Dead House by Dostoevsky. I'm about 80 percent done. I love Russian lit. It sure beats looking at porn and jacking off before going to sleep. I appreciate all who write a few words of they're experience , strength and hope or words of the struggle and what they're trying to achieve. I also get strength from those who fail , maybe often, and dont give up but keep on striving to be free of this addiction. Thanks everyone. One day at a time.
I think apart from nofap the next issue am facing is the desire to talk with every pretty girl I see. Now that my sexual energy is building up as am on NoFap, I am really having a hard time to block in that desire. Sometimes I find my self losing all my focus and doing all possible things to talk to a pretty girl. The reason why I don't want to talk to them is that. I am trying to fix my dopamine circuits and I want then to build in productive areas. And every time I talk to those pretty girls I feel drained and find it had to do productive work since I be thinking of them alot.
Had some intense craving for sex. And happy and sad at the same time. Happy cause for the first time I have had a craving for real sex. To the point I got thoughts of walking over to my pretty neighbor friend's place to ask her that we should have sex together And sad cause since I my wet dream a few days back am experiencing alot of sexual urges and a low motivation to do productive activities.
