    This IS day 8 for me!! (So finally Im an Uruk soon!)
    On the Weekend I forgot to do all the routines but did the most important ones as well...
    Doing fine so far... Greetings!

    --------------------------------------------------------------

    EDIT: It seems I was a bit too optimistic here

    DAMN - I ...
    RELAPSED
    DAY 0


    Dunno why the wraiths always got me on day 8 recently - lately I see that they wanna trick me more and more. Maybe because my addictive part knows that Im revealing the bad sides of this habit more and more - it tries to create many dumb reasons.

    I have to call back my reasons (why to quit) write them down daily and manage a NEW routine (Start tomorrow and its called REASONS-and-BELIEF-Challenge. On the other side I'll start to write all the dumb reasons and burn them once a month.

    Reason today (of pmo-wraiths) was: You are already so tired after work and all you wanted to do today you wont do either (because of this)- so it makes no difference if you lapse now, cuz after lapse the worst is the down (but you are already down u know hoho).
    Followed by: You reached at least 8 days so its not that much of a great shame if you lapse know.
    And: Your not perfect so if you fall its okay.

    Dont blame me for this reflection - its exactly what was in my mind. Especially the last seems to be really insane - PMO uses a good mantra (Im not perfect, so its okay to not always be good or to fail sometimes) against me. LOL thats real creepy!

    108 days Fellowship!

    Still not feeling well, i´m very tired and demotivated, specially in the afternoon. but at least the flu symptoms are lifting, they´re much less today :). my sleep and sugar intakes are also having fluctuations. that´s probably one of the reasons why i feel low. I´m gonna correct that starting today :)

    Nothing more to add. Have a great day mighty Fellowship :emoji_fist:

    Thats a great Idea to count all the small battles too - because evry small step and evry "no" in the right direction will count on this journey!! I'll also start that know!

    Day 35. Yesterday i gave me little pleasures, like eating a tasty meal and ice cream. i finished a book and started another called "fall in love with you" of Walter Riso. I think porn is a mechanism of escape for people who dosent love themself and feel inadequate, because the first thing i felt when i stopped watching porn was a need of love and care.

    Day 143

    Back in the gym, even one week without a workout and I felt noticeably different! Although I’ve got a busy few weeks ahead I’ll be doing my best to make sure I’m at least getting cardio or body weight exercises done when the weights aren’t available to me.

    Another weird day for urges - I’m still getting frequent erections and it’s really distracting. I just hope that by occupying my mind with work I’ll be focused and safer from temptation.
     
  12. Day 9 coming to a close. Next few days will be difficult since I’m heading out on a business trip

  15. Day 4 complete!

    Earlier today I finished the most recent season of the show I've been watching and now I have to wait until next February for the next part, which is supposed to be the final part even though originally, the season I just finished was supposed to be the final part. They keep extending it, which is fine in the long run because it means there will be more to watch, but I hate the waiting part! Anyway, finishing that show means I have one less piece in my daily schedule, so I will need to find something to fill that time so that PMO doesn't fill it. I might try writing letters to some of my friends.
    The fact that you're looking for an answer means you don't believe the lies PMO tells you, because if you did believe them, you wouldn't have any reason to look for an answer. Stopping yourself just because you didn't want to reset is perfectly fine. It gets the job done for now, so you have plenty of time to work on building up that sense of honor or conscience. Stand tall, brother. I don't understand it all either, but the part of you which is striving to grow in virtue, the part that won't simply accept all this evil which we cause, is the real you.

    St. Paul the Apostle, pray for us!

    I know that I’m under a lot of stress but I can’t use it as an excuse. I relapsed because I had my phone with me in the bathroom. And I knew that it was in my pocket even while I was getting up from my seat and starting the walk. I did it. Dam dam dam.
