Hey guys, Resetting after 9 days. Since I have had some very long streaks in the past I think I easily become complacent in my fight against porn. I'm going to make sure I post here daily to remind myself that I shouldn't get arrogant in my attempts to quit.
Days 67,68,69 and 70 done. I admit to myself the trigger is Instagram. I've deleted it. Time sucker, no value. Keep working everyday team. This ain't over at 90 days. PS this helped if you had an addiction to things like Instagram model accounts https://www.yourbrainonporn.com/reb...masturbate-edge-or-watch-porn-without-orgasm/
86 days...do the next right thing...I need to realize that when the mind is encouraging fantasies, porn, etc, it’s just plain ol’ lying
Today is my first day again after a relapse. I intend to be free of PMO today because: I want to have good erections during sex. I want to be proud of myself. I want to be able to look myself in the eye in the mirror and not feel shame.
Day 3. Keeping a close eye on myself and learning to appreciate beauty without giving in to old behaviors that no longer serve me. Triggers are everywhere for me and often in the most unexpected places. I am so much stronger than my addiction. Awareness is the key.
Day 58/90. Good day yesterday, although fell into anxiety on the FASTER scale. I did hop on a meeting which definitely helped. Today I woke up with some urges. My Monday night group, a couple of us went through our arousal template and I think that's just tough on me. It's talking about the details of what we're turned on by, which can be a triggering place to go. It's really good, but the hours after or the day after sometimes my mind gets stuck on those things. Obviously because it's what arouses me..
24/90 Felt super moody yesterday and my previous method of making myself feel better was porn, but chose my new ways to self-soothe instead: meditated, worked out, read, yoga and went to beach.
Day 9/90, Second time in here, reached 120 days last august. But I started watching P regularly again. Since March I‘ve decided to join the community again, but was too lazy. Since I was struggling today, I decided to create a new account so I have to Login here every Day. Great to be back in here instead of struggling alone.
