After quitting PMO most people say we are stressed, but when do we feel more relaxed?

I can't see my day counter but it's over 6 months now. I've done several 90+ day streaks before and each time I went through periods of stress and longing to go back, especially as I reached the 90/100 day mark. I think it's all part of the process. But this time I feel different; I still have urges I have to keep under control, still have to refuse to look/think in a lustful way, but what I don't have this time is that longing to go back to PMO. I'm praying on it daily, putting my trust not in my own strength but simply trusting God to continue giving me the daily strength because he wants me to be holy.

If you're trying to go it on the assumption that it's all your own strength, I as a former atheist would say that you're doing it the hard way. And despite longing to find my future wife which will probably never go away till it happens, I can truly say I have peace and not stress over no-PMO at this point.
