    For me it is. I'm going to begin my own grand challenge somehow. Probably with pen and paper.

    1/1, over to step 2!

    Healthy dopamine is flowing, feeling stronger than ever. I'm very happy about my previous relapses! In fact it was exactly what I needed. Porn and other addictive behaviours give you large amounts of dopamine, which causes obsessive behaviour. So I realised, why being obsessed with unhealthy dopamine sources (porn) when you can be obsessed with healthy dopamine sources instead? In that way, the withdrawal gets so much easier because you're already getting so much dopamine anyway, you won't have time to think about it. Moreover, if you start to think about consuming unhealthy dopamine sources (pmo), just figure out what to do that gives you dopamine from a healthy source instead. For example, when I was going to sleep yesterday, I started to think about pmo. Immediately I started brainstorming about what activities I could do and it ended up in lying on a spike mat while listening to sleep music. Then I could work on focusing on the music all the time, similar to a concentration meditation. Worked like a charm. Today I designed the breakfast so that it would boost my dopamine production. I had yoghurt with chopped cacao beans, curcumin, blueberries and grain grass. I have been listening to music almost non-stop lately. I've been writing todo-lists and I'm being outside more often to get even more d-vitamin, which helps you with dopamine production. It's a wonderful feeling to just go all in with this. I warmly recommend it.

    Try yourself and do as much as you can from these lists.

    This step is in good hands. I will complete it straight away because that's an easy way to feel better.

    Day 2/3 today! Lets go!

    Indeed a nice and motivating synchronisation!
     
  16. 1/2

    A short encounter with smut two days ago took me back to step 2. Yesterday was very good in the sense that I could totally exclude that from my mind. Frankly, it's pretty difficult to be confident about a good run at this point because of the unsuccessful couple of months.

    I don't want to spend any of my time for such a disgusting activity as watching porn.
