Totally! I took another person’s keys thinking they were mine. Stuff like that went on for almost a week.
Hey what's up guys! I just feel so welcome here because there are so many other people who are working towards the same goal as I and we all have something in common. Anyways, I was on a streak until I relapsed this morning half an hour ago. I decided that the only way I'm going to do this no PMO goal of mine, is to work and compete with other people, as that has always helped me in any activity. I don't know why, but just being in the presence of people, and knowing that they're on the same journey as you, makes things easier. I'm pretty competitive, so I think competing with others on this challenge will definitely help me big time! Day 1: I have just started this challenge at 6:53 AM after just relapsing. I'm feeling pretty good, especially since there are other people to work with which will help me a lot, and I've just relapsed so I practically have no sexual temptation left in me. Looking forward to completing this 90 day challenge!
You're right about the effect of doing this with others. I'm convinced- at least for me- that it can't be done alone. We're social critters and we need eachother to heal. Welcome
Thanks for sharing that. My brain has been pretty dysfunctional all week but I know it will pass. Thanks again brother
I'm in day 7. I thought it was day 8 but like I said earlier my brain has been pretty dysfunctional the last few days.
42/90. It's been a while since I last posted. Not feeling horny anymore guess I'm in the flatline period for now. I feel much better when talking with people I don't feel insecure or shy anymore, getting confident day by day.
Day 45. Yesterday was an awful day and I'm pretty upset still, but I know porn would just end up making things worse. Will try to focus on something positive today and keep moving forward.
I did a week. That's the longest in a while. I've tried before just stopping m but I'd be in a constant state of lust trying to arouse myself which isn't easy anymore without porn. I've been trying to keep my eyes and thoughts pure this time. I'm convinced ( for me) that I need to be willing to surrender lust in all its forms if I want to succeed at this. I define lust as objectifying a other for my selfish desires. I see a big difference between horniness and lust. I can still be horny and can still appreciate an attractive woman as long as the woman remains a human being instead of an object to satisfy my desires. Anyway that's how I'm thinking it out rite now. .......thanks for all the support and I wish all of us success on our healing journey.
I've made it another say. I was having a slight urge today but so far it's been fairly easy to remain abstinence. For that I'm both surprised and grateful. One day at a time. Just today.
