    good morning my companions. i relapsed :( sorry

    yesterday we had a lunch pary at work, and i got really drunk. at night i was still a bit groggy and i totally slack my triggers prevention system, which forbiddes me to touch eletronic devices alone when drunk. i start using the mobile freely and one thing lead to another.

    in a way it was good that this happened, because in the past many times i slack my reboot system out of sheer arrogance and suffer the consequences. so this is one more lesson of humility.

    in fact, a common pattern i see in fapstronauts is once they gained the basics of rebooting (and this can take a while), most of the times relapses happens out of overconfidence. so it´s good to remember this daily: an addiction it´s an out of control entity. only through consistent work and determination we can rewire the brain and be happy. experience and knowledge won´t do shit if we don´t apply them.

    i felt i wasn´t 100% serious on the reboot on the last days.

    Now i am.

    Day 6 check in. Despite the ups (today) and downs I feel like I'm gonna run for days without any stops. My goodness!!!! Libido going up and up and I'd better start doing things right now. Reading has helped me a lot, I mean physical books, not internet or kindle. In fact, I suggest you do some research about dopamine, social media and a great interview (2 parts actually) with Dr. Sam Vaknim. The guy has definitely opened my eyes when it comes to addictions, anxiety or any other psychological problems. See you, guys. Stay strong!!!! In case you feel the urge is coming strongly, take a cold shower and go out to work out. Bye!
