    Starting over at day 1 today after a really nasty binge week. I had been so stressed out from work and stuff I just let myself go, and feel rather bad about it now as I was working towards a goal I wanted and almost gave up on it just for a few pmo sessions.
    I am going to post on here updates of my journey daily as I try to reach 30 days pmo free and if any of you want to join with me I welcome you on my journey to beating this porn addiction!

    Don't count days and don't reset on relapse. Focus on goals and reducing the number of faps per week, month and year. It will work because the progress doesn't get reset after 1 relapse so keep going

    On day 4 with no relapses feeling pretty good like I have a little energy back! I had a little slip up today though I was checking my snapchat because I got a notification and while on their clicked on a ad/short video that was a woman in a skimpy outfit showing off her big tits and tattoos. I felt the blood rush from my head and realized what was happening and quickly shut it down and put my phone away. I could feel my addiction flowing over my mind trying to get me to keep looking and look at more but thankfully I stopped before I fully relapsed and started listening to a porn addiction recovery audio book instead once I cooled down from the arousal to help me stave off any more cravings.
    I just got home from work and plan on working on some projects to tire me out so I don't just browse my phone and end up slipping again.

    Hey, I will be joining this to get some support. i will post my number of days as well.
    I am following Hard Mode and it has been 14 days successfully. i started on 13 september 2022. First few days didnt feel anything because I was motivated enough. But now slowly i am feeling the urge but controlling them by taking up productive tasks.

    Thanks Mate,
    today i woke up with some sperms on my body. I felt really demotivated. As i am typing i am feeling i lost all the work of 14 days. I feel like I lost my brain power which had recovered. I googled a liitle bit. Found out it was due to wet dreams and was about to cum completely but i somehow managed to control the ejaculation. But i guess little or more ejaculation has the same effects.
    But i still do not know if it is true or it is just due to lack of sleep.
    But NVM i am just going to reset.

    What happens unconsciously while you are sleeping has nothing to do with your recovery. I would not reset. You can only control what you control. If you were walking through the mall and a woman suddenly ran through naked you wouldn't reset. That's out of your control. Be a little nicer to yourself.

    How is everyone doing?
    I've tried to stop completly several times before, although I massively reduced the amount of porn exposure, more often than not I still masturbate watching youtube bikini videos and other lighter stuff, and that still affets me greatly. As I feel to urges again yestarday, I'd also like to join the journey and report day 1. As well as heard from you people your current situation continuesly until we are free from this. Cheers.

    Hey guys how is everyone doing! I hope everyone is doing well on their journey today. Yesterday on my day 5 I almost fully reloaded because my friend came into town and we got together and had some drinks and I wasn’t in the best state of mind that once I got in bed my head was racing to fantasize about sex and me playing with myself. I thankfully stopped my self before a full relapse mostly in part my phone had died on me and I couldn’t look up porn even though the thought crossed my mind. I am gonna need to stay away from alcohol until I recover because it makes me horny and want to release my pent up hormones.

    Hey there! Thanks for joining the thread and joining everyone on here on our journey to a life without porn. I need to do the full detox with alcohol and drugs too because they make it so easy for my mind to make excuses to watch porn and believe the lies my addiction tell me.

    hey guys.
    Today I felt the urge. I could not control and just saw some pictures and stopped. the urge doesnt seem to be random at all. The urge are at peak at the same time when i used to watch porn. so to control it i have to change the habit. need more will power to control the urge.
