Checking in, still kicking! I greatly appreciate that all are giving support to each-other! It's wonderfully wholesome!
Hey guys, hope you're all doing well. Relapsed today with PMO, first time with P in over a month, I think. Disappointed in myself, there was no good reason for it (I mean... obviously). Some stress items at work and loneliness caught up to me, and I let it take control. Day 0 for me. No way forward but through.
We should Stop to be more aware of the triggers....HALT...Hungry, Angry, Lonely, and Tired!! Times with those are times to notice of our vulnerabilities....God bless you and 90 Days and Beyond!
Thanks, @Soldado_De_Dios, flag to still be here. I MO'ed yesterday, but no P, so I'm on day 1. Helps sometimes to ignore days and think about how far I've come this. I can still count my P sessions this year on one hand, that's so much better than where I've been.
Great example that even if someone relapses, he doesn’t start at zero again (Just the countdown starts there ). Keeps me motivated to go on with the journey, even if it seems to get hard and my mind keeps saying: „you will not make it, you can’t stay away from porn your whole life…“ it is good to know, that the journey goes on.
Unfortunately slipped up last night. I keep forgetting just how much I hate it and the industry as a whole. I feel like at the time of the slip up, my improper thought for a second was like "oh it's not so bad and there won't be repercussions". I'm gonna try something different a bit this time: to apply an immediate repercussion, to prevent such slip ups. I spend most of my time home, and I like to play games/watch youtube to chill, so my restriction will be that after slipping up (starting from now), I'll be going 72 hr without that. I usually don't relapse in a short time, so I'm not in much of a risk of relapse during this time. Just to get a bitter taste, so that in the future, I'll at the very least remember that, 10 minutes of very temporary filth isn't worth the 72 hr restriction. Will report back to let you know how this goes in the long run. I fully intend that, what happened was the last time, and that it's a thing of the distant past. And I am now free from it. I'm already a non-user.
Yes! You are already a Non-User! I had to finally place a block on my TV's YT usage...and I try and use other Apps (A Fast) of YT...I also have Covenant Eyes on my Laptop and Phone(this alone helps a lot)! Some more ideas to try for All really! God Bless Everyone here in this Blog on their journey out of this Horrible habit!! 90 Days and More!
Hey, everyone. I'm starting over again. I relapsed. I've been complacent and ended up doing it again. Do anyone of you know a great blocker for android and also affordable? I know the best filter is self-control but I need some assistance. Thanks.
Hi there, I can strongly relate. For a blocker recommendation, I've found that "Stay Focused" is a great one. It blocks apps of your choice; It's free, but if you want all functions, it's like a one time payment of like 3 euro. An update on this and also a reminder for my future self: the restriction on chilling is flat out painful (and therefore very effective). And I'm only half way through it ._. I don't think I'd ever ever want to have to go through this again just for 10 mins of very temporary filth.
Hi. Thanks for the recommedation. I have that one already and it's great. But what I meant is a porn blocker, something that's impossible to bypass and effective. If it's affordable, that'll be great too since budget is a little tight right now.
Day 10, every day I make it to 90 days something good happens in my dating life. It is just so difficult to get back there
Ah, I'm actually not really aware of one, I apologise. One more reminder for my future self: 12 hours remaining on the restrictions; this is agonizing o_o The sheer length of the restriction is so... impactful. I'm glad that I'm now a non-user and will never have to go through this restriction again. All I can say is that, I don't think I'd ever, in my right mind, choose to go through this again, just for the terrible price of 10 minutes of a filthy thing that I deeply hate anyways.
Day 1 again, too. Really can relate to that, brother. 10,minutes of actually repugnant stuff is definitely not worth giving up some of our soul's health.
Amen to this also Gent! No 10min. Is worth that garbage over a Perfectly Clear Mindset! God Bless Your Journey outa this! 90days and Beyond!
