    Day 0

    I will be day 1 in two hours, but I thought that I would check in now. I asked out a woman I liked last night and she turned me down, but in the meantime before she responded, I PMO'd out of anxiety. My do I need to be able to cope better with fears of rejection. It was not even the rejection that hurt, it was the knowing that she had looked at the message but had not responded that tore me apart. She was very nice about it and we will continue talking, and now I just need to move on.'

    Hey man, props to you for putting yourself out there and for making the first move, but it is her loss at the end of the day. Remember that PMO aint no treatment for anxiety - it only makes it worse... After the PMO, you feel all worn out and spiritually depleted, add it to the top of any perceived rejection and it can make you feel worse. No more peeking, no more touching... Clock up those days, look after yourself and your physical / emotional health most of all.

    Thank you. We had messaged a little more afterward and she accused me yesterday of not giving her space. That was confusing because she never said she wanted space. All she said was not to get weird. However, despite feeling hurt and confused by her sudden adverse reaction and the fact that we might not be friends anymore, I have not relapsed in over 43 hours. That in itself is a success. I feel bitter, but I have no issue with urges at the moment, which I am happy about.

    Day 0

    I relapsed late last night and so I am starting over. Luckily my New Year's resolution was not "no more PMO", but rather to change my lifestyle this year so that I no longer need PMO. Thus I can say that I have not failed after 48 hours.

    Day 1

    I ended up MOing nearly two days ago so for the sake of hard mode I am almost on day 2. I last PMOd three days ago and since that time and especially since my last MO session, I have decided to make some changes in my life. I am going to start working out 2-3 times a week, going for cold winter walks every morning, making myself three eggs for breakfast with chocolate cereal interspersed in between. In the last two weeks I have taken up learning Spanish and I intend to start reading and writing again while I am off from school. I made myself a schedule for the day to day events and I intend to watch some math videos to prepare me for my final semester in undergrad. Life it starting to look up and I am feeling like despite the urges I can beat this addiction. I heard this metaphor today: As you walk along the road of recovery, if you misstep and end up in the swamp of relapse, you don't go back to the beginning of the road and start over, you just get back on where you went off and continue from then on. We will all have set backs, but the goal is to get right back on that road and continue on, learning to watch your step as you go along. Eventually, the missteps become farther and fewer in between, and you will find yourself in freedom. Even in freedom you might have moments where you look at porn, but when you are able to stop your self and get back to life without giving it a second thought, then you are free from porn. It may take years, but we will all get there.
