Haha, thanks! These last 200 days have been crazy! Definitely feeling more challenging emotions that I used PMO to avoid. Lotta ups and downs...but feels good to hit this milestone. 201 Days, checking in.
I stumbled onto some triggering material and peeked two days ago but fortunately didn't act on it. This was a close call since l had a wet dream the night before and could have had a bad case of chaser effect. It wasn't a relapse but it was definitely too close for comfort. Yesterday I was able to safely hangout with my roommates and that was a big help. I'm going on a three week streak and it's the longest I've had in about 3 months. Being a few states away from my family during the holidays and Covid isn't easy but I'm lucky to stay in close contact with them. My goals for the next week include: Continue exercising soon after work and in the morning on my days off Cook some healthy meals and meal prep on my weekends Send some last minute gifts to my out-of-town friends & family Do some nature photography for my Flickr account Keep watching Star Trek (in moderation) Play some games on PS2 & PS4 (in moderation) Read (and maybe finish one of the books I'm reading) Maybe go fishing with my roommates (weather and crowd dependent). Gotta be safe and socially distant, of course. Call and check in on a few friends & relatives
Checking in for another day. With Christmas hectic-ness this past week, and several minor emergencies in my family, I've been neglecting to do my normal housekeeping. I struggle with perfectionism, if you could call it that, so it's been a long process for me to realize that just because something isn't happening today that it's impossible.
Fear of rejection has everything to do with low-self esteem and low-self esteem arises when you condemn your own behavior .Best guess is try and behave for the say next 90 days,in a way that you would respect yourself for whatever you do.This should fix any fear of rejection issues. If in doubt ask yourself-'What would I do in this situation to respect myself? Merry Christmas .

Day 2, Thank you everyone for your kind words, @crazyhorse11 your motivating words sent chills down my spine! Taking part in this challenge and joining The Fellowship has been one of (if not) the best steps in fighting this addiction. I've tried Sexaholics Anonymous and made healthy life changes but this group has kept me accountable. Thank you again, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
Day 119. Checking in! Don't build a dam against the flow of PMO thoughts, it will eventually fail. Instead redirect the flow around, in a different direction. It is much easier to do this second thing! Happy holidays!
Peace, Joy and Love brothers and sisters, on this most holy of nights. He has broken our sins - His law is love and His gospel peace!
Great milestone man congratulations - remember that we all long to get as far as you are now - so it is never worth it to go back only to wish again for where you are now
