    brave words my brother, and so true. yes, i struggle with that idea too: "well, if i can balance alcohol and sugar, why can´t i balance porn? just fap once a while and you´ll be allright".

    well, this idea has major flaws. first of all porn is not a pleasure, unlike alcohol or sugar, when you engage in a pmo session you automatically know it´s not right, it doesn´t feel right. it feels like a void is rising with a sense of anxiety on top. when you eat your favorite food, you don´t feel like that, right? ;)

    that is because we know deep down that watching naked ladies or people having sex is not right. we are basically objectifing other people for our self porpuses. people = us. those ladies could be our mother, daughter or sister.

    plus, we are addicts to it, for us pmo is a loose cannon. like you said "you can´t be a casual porn user any more than you can be a casual heroin user".

    so, these 2 major ideas are the ones i try to keep always alive in my mind: pmo is a destructive behaviour and for me it´s out of control.

    let´s do this my brother.

    I started to fail frequently. There is a term to describe it but i cant remember it now. I've become a angry man who tends to forget things. I need to get back in the game. I dont want to lose the control of my body.

    Day 73. The chaser affect has subsided today and my mind feels clear. I am looking forward to a weekend of relaxing. I would like to take some time this weekend to write and get some of my thoughts on paper. Self reflection is one of the most rewarding practices.

    This is an impressive feat of honesty @CrimsnBlade. Many people would be dishonest with themselves and not consider it a relapse even if in their gut it did not meet their standard. I admire that you are sticking to your principles so firmly. Being honest with oneself is key to recovery. If we can't be honest with ourselves it is difficult to admit that we have a problem in the first place.
