Day 2

Discussion in 'New to NoFap' started by Doctor Debit, Sep 11, 2015.

  1. Well I finally decided to sign up after lurking in the background and many two-week stints, only to get sucked back in by self-pity or some sort of unhappy event. Basically good life. Educated, married, bored, over 60. Raging ADD and have been all my life. I'm sure this has something to do with the issue at hand. INFP for anyone into Meyers-Briggs types. My first goal is to make it 30 days. 15 has been my best so far. Of course forever would be great but I need to have something to look forward to. What I hope to do to celebrate on day 30 is to pledge for 60 more to be the next goal. Not inclined to spill my guts about every gory detail, just decided that I would do better if I connected with others. Actually a series of two week stints is progress, considering how long I have had the habit. I do have an actual sex life but I know it will be infinitely better when I can kick porn and stay off of it.

    Yup. Couldnt agree more.

    Im married too. My goal is 60 days without PMO. Cant hold the real sex haha it fix little problems in my marrige life.

    Quitting Pmo will definitely worth it, & fix our D as well haha
     
  3. Thanks for chiming in. Day 3 and no real urges to watch porn, but it plays in my mind. Are there ways to make that go away?

    Same here. My lady is on her cycle, gotta wait until next week. Im gonna be on one hell of a ride haha

    Planning to read success story whenever i hav the chance. Promise to myself if i catch myself googling soft porn, i slap my hand 3 times with cloth hanger, & im gonna get some haha

    Gotta be tough. 2nd swing can be twice harder, i got no choice but to make this first attempt success.
     
  5. Day 4. Sunday mornings are tough for some reason. That devil is trying to get me to fail. No, not a little red guy with horns, I mean that part of my unconscious that wants me to fail. I find myself feeling slighted by my wife when she really didn't do anything wrong. Its just an excuse to 'get even' by going to porn. Anyway, I WILL make it today. Have a good feeling.

    To keep myself busy i went fishing. Got cut on my legs here & there swimming to get my lure under the rocks. My waist slammed to rock as the rough tide hit me. Stil feel the pain til now. The best part is

    I catch no fish.

    Motivation drop. Went to success story & read as long as i can. Im fully motivated today, PMO's not a big deal. Yeah we can do it. Just a matter of rewiring our brain, just a matter of time until it fixed.
     
  7. Nothing special today except day 5 of clean living. Just having this place to come and post something instead of impulsively going to xxx.cm is a huge help. Here is a list I made of excuses I have used in the past. Maybe somebody will recognize a few of them and it will help:

    Excuses to Avoid
    Nobody is home. I am getting away with something.
    I can handle it. I know what I am doing.
    I've been good for a while so I deserve it.
    Curiosity - just a peek.
    I'm 'over the hump'. A little bit is just normal.
    I'll start tomorrow
    A little bit won't hurt
    I'll only look at ______________ for ________ minutes. When did that EVER happen??
    A little bit will just keep me in the mood
    Youtube stuff doesn't count
    I just want to really bad
    There is nothing else to do
    I have been shit on so I'll do what I want to get even.
    I just feel bad / stressed / lonely and need to feel better.
    Nobody cares anyway
    It doesn't matter
    There is something I haven't seen before
    I'm not feeling the urge so I need to jump start it
    I have accomplished a goal in another area so I deserve it.
    No reason - just impulsively click. Get away if this is about to happen.
    I already did it today, so I may as well do it some more and quit tomorrow. QUIT NOW!!!!
    I might as well give in, since I am going to eventually. Just get it over with.
    Pretending I am loved. That person I am looking at cares about me.

    i reset my counter. such a shame. my mistakes ;

    1. I allow P thoughts in my mind, which lead to
    2. browsing aimlessly the net, & end up being a loser.
