    I'm so craving a night of gooning and edging. I am trying hard to work through the urges
     
  2. I know this was a long time ago, but hopefully you made it through successfully!

    For the past 3 weeks, I relapsed 3 times, usually on the 5th or 7th day. I already did this 3 times. It sucks. But I still think it's positive because instead of ingesting PMO every, for the past 21 days, I did only 3 times. Although I still can't go over the 6/7th day because I feel better, the urges get strong, and my brain tricks me all the time. Not looking for any excuse, but, you all know how fucked up this is.

    I think this point so often gets lost for people recovering. Even though I relapse more than I like, the fact that I’m trying means that I have far more moments away from porn than I have with porn.
     
  5. Excellent point! It is good to recognize the progress. But you cannot let some progress justify an occasional backslide to undesired behavior.

    Totally agree! The end goal for me is to not ever look at porn again. That would be amazing! I just want to make sure that if I skip up I don’t beat myself up over it, or feel shame as this seems to lead to periods of going backwards recovery wise. But if I only feel guilt (versus shame) about the slip up or relapse then I more likely to make some sort of change so as not to repeat the same mistake.
