    I've been going no PMO for almost 9 days, and I'm starting to kinda miss the videos I used to watch. Part of me is curious about what new videos there are, too. I want to keep going, but there's a thought in the back of my head nagging me and telling me I should take a break from no PMO. It's hard not to think about it.

    It feels like I'm holding something in. My gut reaction is to try and get it out, but I know that's going against the goals I set. I just want it to stop.

    It's not helping that I'm going through a stressful time right now since I'm starting university in two weeks and I have to move out of my parent's house. In fact, that could be what's triggering me.

    Writing this post is helping me get my mind off of it. Any additional support would still be greatly appreciated.

    Your experiencing a mind fighting itself to get a dopamine hit. These right here are the only moments that truly matter. Who cares if you go 1000 days if you never face an urge. The point is this your rational mind is being overwhelmed by your habitual desire to consume porn and get a fix.

    The power to sit and breath in silence for 5 minutes will give you the space you need to overcome this moment. Focus only on breathing

    Thank you! I will try to meditate for a while before I sleep, and I'll remind myself that I'm winning this battle.

    I have the same problem and it gets in the way of my everyday life. I’ve even thought about doing it at work as I really wanted to. But joining this forum yesterday, today is my first day without masturbating or watching porn. I usually wake up every morning without fail and load up porn, but this morning although I had morning wood (as always) I managed to fight the urge. One thing that really helped was that instead of waking up and loading up porn, I woke up and came on this forum to remind me that I’m fighting an addiction
