Hello fellas. First day on this Forum. Trying to fight through this addiction. Wasn't involved in masturbation till 14 days, but edged without orgasm 2 days ago. Been reading Gary Wison's "Your Brain on Porn" and came to know edging is even worse than orgasm. Will continue the journey from today. Happy Days!!
Thank You Brother Bamoleo! Amen I agree with you may All be blessed that sit at the table He gave Us and including Your table as well!! We going to 90 Days and Beyond!
Man life has never been so busy for me. While it’s driving me crazy it’s also keeping me out of trouble. Still porn free! 90 and beyond!
You got this and even more if you ask for God to come to your life and surrender to Him! If you haven't already done this yet?! If God is for Us Who can be against Us? 90 Days and Beyond!
Awesome Stuff my Brother Art! 7 more Days! So, tell us how you are feeling about hitting the Goal??!! 90 Days and Beyond! The beyond is coming soon for You!
Day 2 and stayed busy all day, so easy day! Grateful for that, for sure. Hope everyone is doing well. @Fightingtobecomesuccessful Welcome!
It’s felling good I’m almost at 90 days. For the first time in a while I feel in control of myself…which feels awesome! Staying busy has helped a lot, thinking about others before myself (such as my family) and also most importantly ho God feels is really helping me along. Soon I will hit 90 and everyone else on here will too. Then it’s the great Beyond!!!!
Staying busy helps tremendously…watch out for those periods of nothing. that has hurt me in the past. Keep telling yourself before the situation arises what you would do if the situation came up. Prepare your heart and mind! You got this! 90 and beyond!
I'm short 23 days to hit 60! But yes I identify with saying "being in control of oneself"! That feels so great! And now that I have been working that has really helped me a lot! What God thinks about this is Sooo important because the reality is nobody's opinion matters more than His!! Let's Jam thing back to the abyss where it belongs!! 90 Days and Way Beyond!
Pretty good today, started having fantasies come back mid afternoon, but not too bad. I had plans immediately after work, so did have any down time. Day 3!
This verse in Romans has reminded me. I tried to reboot but failed and relapsed. This verse you quoted mean so much to me. Jesus died for all of us but is this how I repaid him? I feel sorry and ashamed. Can I start the challenge again? I hope it's not too late.
God is the God of many opportunities, but let's attempt to live a life of sanctification if we truly Know Him!? We all need to search our hearts to make sure we're not just going thru the motions....God knows our hearts and if we truly mean business with Him or Not...!? Even in the 11th hour we can decide to surrender it All to Him! He want's that!! 90 Days and Beyond!
@kev790 When Peter asked Jesus "how many times must I forgive my brother? Is seven times enough?", Jesus answer "not seven, but seventy times seven." The point being made was that you always forgive, because He always forgives us. When the woman caught in Adultery was brought before Jesus, the last thing He said to her was, "Neither do I condemn you, go and sin no more." (John 8.1-11) For me, it's nice to think that every time I fall, when I lookup Jesus is there saying exactly that: "Neither do I condemn you, go and sin no more." It's not an excuse to fail again, it's forgiveness and an encouragement to get up and struggle on. Day 4 for me. It was tough after work, actually a little surprised I made it through. I've been here before and I know that I need to reel my thoughts in my down time or I won't make it much longer. So I guess that's my goal for tomorrow.
Day 5, today has been better than yesterday, just need to be careful going into the evening now. I think it's time for a little jog . Happy Friday, everyone!
@yvngLeo welcome aboard! Hey guys, sorry I've been AWOL for a while. Been very busy and not easy to post from my phone. I'm still here and still clean so far, though there have been some very tough days. I am back on my PC as of this morning, I just hooked it up again. I'm comfortable enough to do this both because I have work I need to do on it and because the urges have definitely improved since those first two brutal weeks, I can feel myself getting used to being free again. But I know it'll continue to be a tough battle for probably at least the next month off-and-on. Just reminding myself that I've gone too far to go back. Great to see all of you still persevering, even if there are some stumbles! @Soldado_De_Dios you're inspirational as always man! @liveFreeOrDie love that you're picking back up and fighting! You have the right mentality. Keep watching your danger zones and staying active. @art7 you are so close to 90 days! Think about how awesome it's going to be to hit 100! Keep it up, just a couple more weeks.
You can do this "yyngLeo"! God will be with us and help us...He is just but one prayer away from that! 90 Days and Beyond!!
