35 and Older Accountability Group

Always seemed like the best thing is to just be doing things you like/want more.

 

Checking in. Closing in on 5 months!

 

Checking in ...
Have a nice day

 

Not sure why but today feels like the type of day where a relapse could happen. Probably just the passage of time, nearly a week, also not great sleep this week, and currently home alone.

I've had this before where I have this feeling, and then I say to myself well of course I won't relapse, duh. And then a few hours later I am like some creep drooling over a screen for hours. Pathetic.

Anyway, always good to recognize times like this. I will continue to build the life that I want. Be productive but not at the expense of my mental health.

 

Can you get out of the house for a while? Or meet up with someone? Its good to be aware of when you are most vulnerable. I know that for me, not getting enough sleep and being alone at home are two factors that increase my risk of relapse.

 

Thanks for the tip. I work from home for the time being, so there is the expectancy that I am at my desk most of the time, but practically speaking I can always leave for just a bit of course. Meeting up will be hard, but I will take your advice and go for a little walk or short bike ride if I notice my mind going to certain places.

 

Checking in. Be well everyone

 

Had another reset. Insomnia is my biggest kryptonite. Tips there?

 

I have started playing mouth organ and it helps me a lot .

After aerobic exercise, i play mouth organ for 5 to 10 minutes and its affect long last for 3 to 4 hours and in that duration no urges come .

Have a nice day .

 

Meditate 5 minutes before sleep .
Hope it will help you

 

Good tip

 

I have read the rules and would like to join this group.

 

Checking in. 150 days tomorrow!

 

wow. nice!!

 

Reset. Strong desire to check out of reality and be consumed. Basically spent tons of time building up to PM cause I wanted to be consumed by something.

Not a huge fall and relapse. I'm on the right path. I don't like P and I will soon be free.

 

Thanks Artifact, great to be here!

 

Hi all...I made it to 35 days with absolutely no problems...not even an urge to look once at P. But then yesterday sat on the sofa and I got some strong sexual urges and before I knew it my brain had just convinced me to pick up the laptop to look so I did and PMO'd 3 x that day....needless to say was a rubbish day!

So I'm starting afresh from today and will continue to work hard on this...have made 45 and 35 days the last 2 times so I am making progress but need to be careful about where the urges can come from

Thanks for all the support

 

One of the benefits you get by going 35 days clean is, now you are able to take positive decision to start again.

Very nice bro !
Congrats for earlier successful streaks and hope you will post that contains a message which says "finally i am free".

Have a nice day to all of you .
