Day 8 of 30. It's the weekend and I can reflect a little. It feels good to have 7 days, that's like a week. For me it's learning to accept the storm of feelings, emotions and sexual urges. To say yes to them and be like 'hello, you again, nice to see you' rather than getting all angry and 'oh no not this again, urges give me some peace!'. It's not an easy path but i'm trying to break the cycle of feel stressed/anxious > PMO = temporary relief > feeling really shitty and dirty and the stress and anxiety just comes back again
really appreciate this, I find it hard not to just fall into 'oh here we go again' despair and forget to just let it flow past me for awhile, thanks for the reminder.
Day 0. I have been trying to work in some pornography use under the guise of shadow work. However, I want to make it a full 30-days before revisiting that idea. For me, abstinence of porn needs to include accessing sexualized images on social media/reddit as well. 30 days of no porn, no creeping!
