The Lord of the Rings Challenge

Don't relapse. You can go out or be with someone.
Being alone at these times is the greatest mistake.

 

Halfway through day 8.
Had a very strong urge for PM.
I don't know how I controlled it but yeah I didn't relapse.
Listening to song helps...

 

There are many applications that count the calendar and mark the falls and the length of time between them.

As you say, it helps a lot to make a calendar, because when you relapse you think you have lost everything. But if you look at the time, then you realize that it is less than you think and that you can deal with it.

I higly recommend it.

 

3 days

 

4days completed
Feels iam growing

 

Day 10: Back up to the double digits! Feeling better each and every day I distance myself from PMO!

 

Why I feel that.......
Nofap is more joyful than PMO

 

Think if you complete 30 days.

 

26 days down - still going strong.

Also, 2 days ago I finished reading Tolkein's The Silmarillion - fantastic book! I'd like to think that as I fight this battle against PMO, I'm like Beren, fighting to claim a Silmaril to win Luthien's hand in marriage.

God is good! Onward!

I think it is quite obvious. NoFap makes us feel accomplished. We have been slaves for so long, and the sweet taste of freedom (no matter how long lasting) is like water for the thirsty, bread for the hungry, and fire for our fuel to give us a boost. Every day that we go without PMO, the stronger we will feel (even when we feel weak in the moment), because we know that we are taking back our lives. On the other hand, PMO brings temporary relief from our urges, but it is a false relief equivalent to our PMO masters letting up from beating us after have beaten us for hours. When we do NoFap, the PMO master might beat up temporarily (urges), but we ultimately freedom and we can fight back. When we do PMO, out master beats us, we give in, and the cycle of abuse continues. Freedom is joyful. And as they say, all people have the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness none of which is possible with PMO. I have only ever made it 3 months without porn and 24 days without masturbation since I was 12 years old, So the NoFap journey is really hard, but know that when I get to 25 days without PMO, everyday will be a new record, and that will feel great. Until I get to that record, seeing my counter go up a digit every morning makes me feel great because I know that I have successfully fended off the forces of PMO one more days.
Hope this helps.

Last 2 days completed successfully brother

 

Day 8 coming to an end.
Today was very tough. PMO Forces nearly took over me.
But somehow resisted my urges.
Hope tomorrow goes fine...
Fingers crossed

 

Day 7

I have made it a week without PMO with few urges (though not none). I had a strong temptation last night, while I was on a streaming service, where I started to watch a graphic movie, but then I realized that I did not want to do that, so I exited the movie and deleted it from my watching list. (I had been searching for the movie Mean Girls to watch, and this one was one of the most searched films on the site, so I started it, but I fought back, and escaped from the slavers). After tomorrow, I will have made it my nearest record of 8 days, and then my next record will be 25 days without PMO. That is still nearly 3 week away though, so I need to focus on keeping my head on straight and getting there.
