The Lord of the Rings Challenge

Check in Day 13. I've noticed an underlying sense of stress since stopping, but on the bright side my productivity has been steadily climbing. Currently, my main triggers are stress and finding myself alone, which I'm attempting to deal with through meditation, exercise, involvement w/ the fellowship (thanks guys!) and not procrastinating on work.

Congrats on 90 Days man!

 

Been relapsing over and over because of my mood... Having a desire to restore peace in Middle-Earth should help nah? I'M IN!!!

Day 24

 

Checking in on Day 64.

 

Russian!

 

Day 62. Feeling anxious this morning. I had a very vivid wet dream. I thought I woke up wondering if I had reached orgasm. I can already feel the dreaded chaser effect this morning. My mind is racing a bit and I feel worried about things that were not crossing my mind yesterday. I need to make it through this one.

 

Day 26.

What fine weather we are having in the The Shire this time of year.

 

Day 118 complete. Ithilien is coming into view!

 

Checking in for day 05. I forgot to login yesterday.
Lot's of work to do. I did more social interactions, even went out with a friend. Sadly I didn't read anything yesterday, but hopefully I can manage to do that today. Also went to the gym.

 

Checking in. I'd been in a really low period of relapse last week. It brought a lot of self-hate to the surface, which I'm thankful for. I have a pattern where I am happier to post on the days I feel like I'm "succeeding" and afraid when I've "failed", even though I've told myself not to follow those metrics any more. The past few days I've started taking actions again to change my mindset - setting up a habit tracker and learning a new journaling technique. I'm thankful for this challenge continuing!

 

Day 91!
I'm feeling motivated and all seems good, but I noticed that my addiction tried to pull one up on me by promising good things... unproven illusions to bring me back to a place we know all too well.
"You've done the 90 days, why don't you take a rest and relax your body a little?" the voice tried to conceptualize.
Long story short... by this time, relapsing would be as stressful as, doing nothing on a week-end while trying to relax as responsibilities await.

 

Day 165. Checking in.

Here is how I view my counter, put simply:
It responds to me, not the other way around.

It is not a full reset if it ticks back to zero, it just marks the day that you don't meet your goals.

Onwards!

 

Day 18. Looking forward and getting stronger.
