    I find what helps for me is to put myself in as many situations where it would be near impossible for me to act out on urges.

    Honestly do it, there's nothing to lose, just toxicity and negativity. Just make sure you have all the numbers of people you actually want to talk to first.

    Could you be a bit more specific?
    I feel that my options are limited at the moment: I work from home as a freelance programmer but currently in a bit of a lull. So I've been feeling a bit rudderless... to counter that, I've been working on a few personal projects.
    I think the best I can do at the moment is try to keep myself as busy as possible.

    Day 13 in Year 1 Gryffindor House complete.
    Anxious as F today. I believe I know why... I'm about to do something new (but old) and very uncomfortable. In fact, I have already started.

    "Today, I am worth the extra effort!"

    Setback on day 7 back to day 0.
    I was getting a bit careless and it happened slowly. Classes were cancelled in the night, so I didn't have to get up in the morning. I felt relaxed and started aimlessly using my phone and that's how it started :) From very small triggers to a full hour of looking at that shit and edging.
    Have to stay aware about chaser effect. Any tips are welcome about how I can get back on track :)

    Day 0 hospital wing

    Scrolling through social media and found something that triggers me to open the P site, that really sucks.

    Day 14 in Year 1 Gryffindor House complete! I am now in Year 2 once again.
    Yesterday was a good day... I was too busy to think about PMO. I also accomplished quite a bit, which is a huge plus for me.
    I hope to have a similar if not better day.
    All the best to the rest of you!

    Today, I am choosing to think thoughts that serve me well."


    I happened on this documentary yesterday thanks to another documentary share ('raised on porn') on another challenge...
    It covered every single thing that i am currently going through and a lot of what I have seen other people going through on this forum.
    I have never had/heard my addiction (and it's accompanying problems) broken down so well!
    I would recommend it to everyone on this forum.
    Here's the link:

    Minor dispute with the wife. Involves my past gambling and trust issues.

    Triggers me to want to escape into P and M. My justification is that "at least I'm not gambling!" Can't take that childish mentality. I am a grown man. But I have to recognize these cross addictions that I have and my past triggers. Can't do it. Won't relapse.

    Can I get an amen?

    I think it's Day 23.

    Social media sucks. I wish I could stop using them altogether.

    Day 15 in Year 2 Gryffindor House complete!
    Yesterday was not the best day, but it was a good day... caught myself looking at and actively searching for pretty girls on Instagram! This always seems to happen when things start feeling good. I shall be careful.
    I plan on having an even better day!
    Cheers!

    "Speak Life!" Today, I am victorious!
