    Day 52. Emergency report.

    Tempted. Tempted. Tempted. Tempted. Tempted. Tempted. Tempted. Tempted.

    Woke up tempted, too. But instead of pmo went for a walk and street gymnastics. I enjoyed. Very nice weather. Opened shorts season. Could have opened earlier, I guess, but it's still difficult to believe that it's so hot already. Maybe global warmings is really a thing.

    I don't know. Very difficult to abstain now. Seems that I am sacrificing big pleasure. Well, probably I am. But pmo never fulfills me. After every relapse I am just sorry that I did that. I want to see, where can I go with hardmodes, and every relapse brings me back to square one and leaves me with questions and doubts. And I think I want some answers now.

    Actually, this thing is very simple. Simple choice - to keep abstaining or relapse and admit that I failed. But my brain keeps offering me various convoluted scenarios.

    For years I pushed emotions away with pmo. In my teen and later years I masturbated almost every day. Sad -> pmo, angry -> pmo, anxious -> pmo, avoidant -> pmo, depressed -> pmo, too happy, manic -> pmo,... I think back then I could pass baseline test easily because of so much numbing myself. But now I am not even close to baseline. Of course, I don't know how to deal with emotions in healthy way. But, live and learn.



    Next reward - denim jacket on July 3rd.
    Hard mode + no shutting blockers down - day 52.
    No matter what happens in my life, this is important to me and this streak has to continue.
    No coffee at all. No tea, chocolate, etc. after 18:00.
    Calisthenics workout every Saturday. I can do one additional workout on any chosen day.

    Day 52. III. Emergency report.

    Still tempted.

    Checking students' algebra stuffs works. I have a challenge for myself to check them in one day. Can I do that? If I do, I'll buy a pizza pie as a reward.

    This should get my mind off temptations a little bit.

    Day 52. IV. Emergency report.

    There is a fight going in my mind. I know that after relapse I'll be sorry, but I still want to pmo. :(

    Let's try to calm down with chill musics.

    Doing fine in general. Tonight I'll be home alone for a few hours but if I prepare myself I will manage I'm sure.

    Stay vigilant brothers!

    Day 53.

    Not sure if this is an emergency, but I am tempted. It is what it is...

    Got up on time. Went for a walk. Nice weather. Can't complain.

    Not sure how I feel. There is some happiness that I survived yesterday evening without a relapse. That was not easy. But at the same time I'm a bit tired and low. And frustrated... I would like to just rest, but I have stuff to do... That's life.

    Let's stay focused. Good chunk of time left until July 3rd.
