The Lord of the Rings Challenge

Day 287

Re-started Wim Hof's breathing method and I finally can see the benefits.

 

Day 16 (Hobbit)
I have urges, but I can handle them.
Funny paradox - the less sexual thoughts I have before bed, the more sex dreams I have (or more I remember).
Good luck Fellowship
You are awesome!

 

I try it out - I heard it once but never tried it - thx brother!!

 

It's great that you took that into account!

 

Day 16. Hi! I'm a Hobbit now

 

Day 139

Urges have been easier to manage today! I've had no temptation to relapse, but did feel slightly insecure in my singleness - I'm not desperate for a relationship but I'm becoming more easily triggered when I realise I like a girl or see happy couples.

I'm beginning to see why so many people decide not to count the days anymore; on one hand it feels tedious, but I know that the moment I stop taking this reboot seriously is the moment I begin to fail. I will not stop counting the days until I reach Mount Doom on Day 500 - but even if I do reach that milestone, I reckon I will need to keep track of the days all the same.

 

Day 7 complete! Very clean streak so far, I'm happy about that. Lots of battles won, like @Paul S. is doing. I think that's a really good idea.

@RiseToGreatness Thanks again for putting so much dedication into this challenge. I fully approve of the two new rules; they will help us focus even more on our collective goal and make us better people in the end. We're in the fight of our lives.

@newbobido Keep on doing your best! It sounds like you're very aware of your usual triggers and the things in your environment that make you more vulnerable. That's a good thing to know and it'll help you do well.

St. Ignatius of Loyola, pray for us!

 

Day 459

 

Day 11

 

Hey guys, I was an active member of this support group and also successful in quitting porn 1 year ago but I am again in the same addiction due to compulsive use of porn from last 2 months.
I really need some support group to quit this addiction for once and for good.
Please count me in the challenge.

 

Day 39 complete

after a few times when I looked for some sexy images I now feel that I have some of the old neural pathways revived. But I did’t look at any images yesterday and not planning to do it today.

I felt bad this week because my wife didn’t have sex with me when we had planned it, but I talked to her yesterday and I understand that she she still does love me, she is just not into sex. For me I don’t know if it’s a legit need to have sex with my partner or it’s just that she is the only one I can have sex with and I want sex in general.

 

You’re in brother. Welcome

 

Just a quick question: after a couple of hours i will finish a 40 day streak.
And what about ranks and items, will i start with rank hobbit and gain all items until day 40?

 

That’s it… I’m out! Just kidding. Seems totally reasonable and honestly I would have assumed those were relapses anyway.

 

Day 452 no PMO. Taking the day off work.
