    Day 66! My sleep schedule got screwed up due to going overdrive and starting to burn out. I'm trying to not sleep today until 10-11pm max as I used to, quite tempted to sleep though, so I might take a cold shower to get that energy back. I am sure that if I take a nap now, the 6 hours remaining for today are going to be totally unproductive.

    Almost relapsed.
    I'm writing this on the toilet. I want in with the full intend to pmo.

    I've entered an adult site and just froze. At the same time I've just started singing to myself "I want to break free".
    It took me way to much time, and I wasn't even needed to have a phone in the toilet in the first place.

    But I left that site and now I'm writing this post.
    Maybe I should reset. But to be honest, I don't want to. The negative side of having that 0 days is the part that tells me that I doesn't matter if I PMO because I have nothing to lose.

    And on some level, I want to see what happened to me right now as a win and not as a lose. I was mindful, I stopped to reconsider and I've did not "use the ring" I am Galadriel:cool::D

    Hello Fellowship!! :)

    I´ve been away for a while, cause i´ve been sliding ever since. It all started with overating at my "celebration" dinner, then i skipped my bed time, start fishing on TV, stopping, going to bed, getting insomnia because of heavy urges, trying all night to fall asleep, and then collapsing at 5 am.

    that made me really demoralized, and my issue with the counter (the resets) rise up again, so i delete it, and i´m just following my global counter (clean days and relapse days) as a reference. Today is day 714. I changed some other things and will give the reboot a new aproach, more based on developing skills and wins, instead of reaching "somewhere". of course, this is contrary to the spirit of this thread, but i will give it a try, and hope for the best :)

    for now, i´ll just be checking in as a regular rebooter, enjoying your company, and updating you guys :)

    Here´s a very inspiring and eye opening video from JK Emezi.



    Have a great day my brothers :)

    Not looking forward to being at work all day, but tomorrow I will be able to get this all sorted... I've been feeling a bit of blue balls randomly and my skin is acting up. I have this weird skin condition that pops up suddenly at times. Now I think it's probably stress related.

  12. Hi folks! Can I join?
    As you see, I'm already an elf :p
    No, actually I'm on day 2. I thought it would be good to take as a goal to beat my recent longer streak of 7 days. So then thats urukhai in this challenge, right? But I'm talking about no porn days. I'm not so good at mo. But I'm trying. Is there a chance that I can get better step by step or anything. Maybe allow mo without fantasy in the first weeks, or something like that?

    Day 2 - Relapsed

    I'm not feeling too upset about this one, just trying to be kind and forgiving to myself since this winter is only getting colder so far so I think it's gonna get worse before it gets better. One positive thing I've noticed is that what I'm actually viewing it getting less extreme so I think I'm slowly beginning to let go of the kinks and fetishes that I've developed through escalation over the years.

    50 days Moria, the greatest Dwarven Kingdom, is before you. With a beard and a axe, you´re a Dwarf now.

    I'm so grateful I came this far. Second longest streak this year, third longest streak ever :)

    Good to have you back @RiseToGreatness !

    This time I'll make it to the 90

    I am waking up tired, my immunity is weakened once more, maybe I gave too much of my strenth during the workout on friday.

    48 days without porn.

    Day 10

    Double digits! I wasn't as stressed out today as I thought I would be. Definitely a lot of underlying anxiety over my rent situation though. I will contact them first thing tomorrow and hope I can fix this. If things don't work out I don't have a backup plan. If I had to guess I think it will work out though.

    I think I will just have a warm bath to relax before I have to go to bed in a couple hours. I got some urges, but I'll get through it.

    You're doing super good. I remember when I first showed up here we were neck and neck for a long time. You will definitely make 90 this time at the rate you're going!
