    It would be interesting to know the thought process and what causes a relapse at that stage? It would be good for people who will be trying to make to that stage to start with..

    I found that you become complacent and you let the guard down , once you are that far in. The initial vigilance and awareness, at the start, fades away and you take unnecessary risks.

    Day 5/90! Self negotiation is such a bother.

    Absolutely , eating less isn't exactly the thing , maintaining your calorie intake by only eating healthy food is important , plus eating high dopamine releasing foods like pizzas also desensitize your brain and the dopamine craving increases which increases your urge to Fap . And the proof of this is a few of my relatives visited my place during christmas and they're still there , that time I ate all the junk food I could find and then that somehow led to a relapse.

    Day 0

    :(
    Major slip up involving alcohol with friends the night before. Since I don't really drink anymore it may have affected me more than usual.
    Anyway, no excuse here - the issue I find with myself is that I actually wanted it at the time and of course rationalized my decision in a way that sounded similar to "I have already fixed my issue once, I can afford to fuck up because I can fix it again". I don't have to explain why this way of thinking is so wrong.

    I guess I will have to start 2021 with an even bigger fight! I don't believe I have ereased all progress or all I have learned. But I need to recognize I need to stay consistent and that means LONG TERM consistent :)

    Have a great day everybody :)

    My major slip up have been anxiety related. Being very private person always and being over obsessed with doing the right thing and pleasing people was what was at the core of my anxieties. So one day I said to myself "f... everyone and be yourself". Not in a bad way I took lot of pressure of me and it was very empowering.
    Everything has a cost and even doing the right thing attitude has too. And you must be brave enough to bear it. But at the same time you must connect deep within you and understand what us going on and respond and act accordingly.


    Although I am firm believer of Shia Islam and always will be but I love this quote because it rings true to the heart. I think it's from Bible

    Salvation lies within.

    In Islam we say that the one who hasn't recognized himself will not recognize God.

    Have a nice day.

    Thanks for that. I think although I was eating less but I was still eating high calorie foods and that was making me less hungry and that is not what I wanted. So what you said about calories and dopamine releasing foods does make sense.

    I think in general exercise and water will play a crucial role. As well as you work I.e. physical vs office based.

    One thing I have noticed also is that the urges are strongest for some ppl in the morning . I found that to be related to bowel movements.

    I just ended my 12 days streak. I don’t know how I managed to see porn on Twitter and I was hooked. I watched it over and over again. I was mad horny. Then my ex called my she was coming over, I was mad excited, I started watching it again. I even saw drops of semen on my genital. So she came, I was acting abnormal around her. She’s told me to stop so many times but instead, it turned me on. I wasn’t wanting to turn off the urges and emotions. I could control myself tho but I didn’t want to because I wanted to O. I hate myself for been all over her. I hate myself for been needy around her. It was like a charm. We later had Sex and Tbh I wanted more and more. I just wanted to keep fucking her. I don’t know why I behaved that way.

    Day 76 complete. Almost done. I've never actually finished a complete 90 day challenge before with no PMO. I'm pretty excited to finish this one.

    I have to say that this time I'm really sensing some real change. Changes in habits, changes in mindset. I've put a lot of work into recovery this year, and it's all starting to pay off. 2021 is going to be my first P free year since I was 10 years old.

    Day 9! Had such a dramatic Christmas week but it was really good. Really restorative but also really hard on me.

    Day 54

    A bit more difficult during holiday period as life is less routine and such, but I think once new year passes it'll become easier again :D

    Good luck all, let's end 2020 on the best note we can!

    We learn something from every mistake. Think through what happened, try to learn something new about yourself, forgive yourself and move on :)

    Persistence, persistence, persistence!

    And don't forget that even "day 0" is a glorious day of your life too, enjoy it!

    Day 82. I spent a lot of time working on my emotional issues. As a result of this, I had a pretty gloomy day, but I felt lighter by the end. There is still work to do, but I feel I made good progress today.
