    Hi all,

    I recently went through a week of relapse after discovering a loophole in my blocking/filter system I had for porn. After a few sessions of watching porn again, I was already getting bored and started seeking out more shocking content to get me excited.

    As many of you can relate, this is a slippery slope and things get worse before they get better if not addressed. Luckily I've caught myself, and I'm currently in the midst of strategizing a plan to go on a 90 day no porn or masturbation challenge.

    The longest I've gone was just over 60 days, and I've been working on rebooting for many years now. Unfortunately, I'll go 30-45 days of either no P, or no PMO and then fall back into my old ways.

    My failures are usually due to me finding loopholes in my blockers, feeling lonely or not having sex, looking for a quick escape, or getting triggered by a bikini photo, or something of that nature lol.

    My question is, what strategy and mindset does one need to implement to get to 90 days? I understand everyone's different, but what worked for you?

    Any advice or feedback would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance.

    hey fam, I used to be in your shoes. I have a method... might even make a thread about it.

    P + M = O
    though M=0
    Abstain from porn for at least about 30+ days that will flush a bit of it fron your mindset you can continue MO but you'll gradually realise i believe that you cannot fap as frequent as you would with porn and that will assist in reducing urges thereafter when your ready persue the 90 Days Challange

    During those 30 days of abstaining from porn become more preoccupied with being productive.
    I know it's cliché but

    • Read a book
    • Exercise
    • Get a hobby (I produce music or program in my free time)
    • Chill with your homies
    • Talk with buddies
    • Just do something to avoid getting bored
    An inactive mind is a dangerous mind

    Self-control and mind preoccupation is essential for this to be sucessful. Willpower only appears to be insufficient to overcoming something.
