Thank you Compass. Your encouragement really does mean a lot.

Let's finish out December together, brother.

Day 50 for me today.

 

Hi @BrohkenCompass et al - sorry to report that I have taken a tumble today.
I therefore cannot make the total streak - however I would still like to try to make the rest of December totally noPMO - let me know if I am still allowed to participate in the challenge!

 

Day 70: Very pleased. Forward movement.
We may not always be able to go full throttle, but we can move in the right direction, even if it requires detours.

 

Day 78 - interesting that chaser thoughts crept in last night, 3-4 days after the fact. Managed to stay clean but it was a mostly sleepless night. Stay strong.

 

Guys I relapsed on day 60th (1st Nov)
Haven't been clean since then
Please remove my name from the challenge. It was fun to be a part of this. Nice efforts to keep this up @BrohkenCompass
60 days were longest till date. looking to start again. Let's see what happens!

 

@BrohkenCompass Strike me again - If 2 days in a row counts as 2 relapses. Don't go easy on me - I am to blame - judge me on my actions, not my words.

 

Day 79 - stayed out of trouble somehow yesterday and last night. Exercise, listen to guided meditation, read a book, got work done, spent a fair amount of time here, extended myself to others to hear their problems. Today is calmer - grateful for that. I can see how consecutive days of agitation and craving for the old days of PMO would cause a relapse. I must admit that sometimes I miss that escape. Having to face the real world is hard work.

Let's all stay strong brothers. When you are about to go astray come here and find some fellowship. That kept me out of trouble yesterday.

 

Day 64. I swear I can think better and problem solve better. My interests are starting to come back too.

Not easy. Have an urge in some way shape or form everyday, but so worth it.

 

You hit a new record then? That's awesome! 60 days is a big deal, man. Seriously, congratulations and thanks for being part of the solution.

You've been doing really well @Brahmacharya_UK! It's been inspiring to see your progress. 96 or more days it was, right? That's a great launch pad to move forward. If/ once you're ready, let's close out this month strong.

 

Day 71:
Wet dream early this morning. Even in my dreams I have some awareness of my no PMO intentions.
After some pornographic images in the dream, I realized it was my intention not to view such material.
It was like I stopped just as I was ejaculating. Call it a "half-jac". Hahahah.
Alright, that's enough of a share.

To wake up and realize I was clean still in the waking world was nice.

 

@Ian Of Freelandia Well said Ian! Your encouragement is also part of the solution and what makes this site work. Especially for guys like me who is a 30 years PMO addict and only made progress since I joined this site in June. Thank you friend. Stay strong.
