Rough time

  1. I managed to go 21 days few months back but now my strength has decresed to not more than 2 - 5 days and yesterday I had a break down . Feeling like shit .
    Earlier i had goals but now I am just getting drowned in this shithole
     
  2. hi man, care to elaborate a little more about how you relapsed on day 21 and why you continue to go on 2-5 day streaks? Sounds like things aren't going your way right now and there are things that are causing you pain. In my opinion, the reason we seek out porn and relapse is that deep down we have emotional needs that we haven't identified or have those needs met yet.

    I'm sorry to hear you had a break down and are going through a tough time.

    Worrying about not succeeding at this will only make you feel worse, which can actually cause more PMO, because your PMOing for comfort and to make yourself feel better.

    Don't worry you will get there. Success doesn't need to be immediate and in one go. Don't expect perfection. Aim for perfection but don't expect it.

    Everything adds up over time, it just takes longer.

  4. You know what you were able to do and also I think you can go beyond that also. Now you need to dust off yourself and reflect what you did to reach those 21 days.

  7. Day 9 today
    Urges are high
    Help!!!
     
  8. Urges are difficult to deal with but this is something we have to overcome in order to beat this. Every time you resist an urge your telling your brain that you don't need PMO. You're rewiring it and making it stronger! Think about how you felt last time you relapsed, the shame, guilt and regret, use that pain to motivate you. Remember it's never worth it, you should want to beat this more than you want to PMO. Go outside for a walk, do some exercise or anything to keep your mind focused on something else. Stay strong Gamebred, hope this helps!

    Make sure you remember urges are temporary. In the moment it seems like they will last forever, but in reality strong urges only last a few minutes at best if you do something else and don't dwell on them to prolong them.

    I'd recommend you read a book called "SPAM REMOVED (spam code #001) - REPORT TO MODERATION-hakbook". You can find it as a PDF on google. It tries to change your whole view on PMO and in that way, really remove all associations you have with PMO. I'd recommend it 10/10
