    Checking in. Things are going better for me this week. Finally taken some action on a few things. I had a very long over due Dr appointment on Monday and have blood tests on Friday. I finally booked an eye test. And I joined the gym yesterday and managed to drag myself there this morning. Nutrition has been much better the last few days too.

    All good on the PMO front. For me if my spiritual/prayer life is in order that is in order too.

    Day 6 checking in...... Been sleeping well, exercising regularly and often and with it getting some good social interaction. My gf has been very supportive esp during my more grumpy/moody (angry) moments but staying truthful and talking things through helps a lot. Really need to get some therapy going but it's pretty pricey even where I live.

    Good luck everyone and stay strong! Thanks for sharing your stories/journey too and likes.... Reading other people's struggles helps to keep me focused

    Boom. 90 days.

    I've been here before. Many times. I even made it to 180 days once and 150 days twice.

    But this time feels different. I completely changed my life in the last 90 days. Going to bed early and getting up early, and starting the day with exercise. Cutting out video games. As long as I can keep doing this routine, I feel I can do it. And it's completely doable. Of course I will stray a bit inevitably, but as long as it's not too much and I remind myself to get back on track as soon as possible, I should be good. My life is no longer about selfish pleasure, but more about serving others and finding joy while doing it.

    A few days back I really got off track with my routine, but just the thought alone of going back to it made me happy, I just want to be in this state now, instead of having to force myself into it.

    Back to day 0….I think I need to get more sleep as tiredness is a real trigger for me:(

    I was always told sexual desire peaked at about age 35 but never happened for me…. I wish it would as I am 54 now!:DAnyone find desire getting less with age?

    Day 7 check in..... Seems pretty common that I get some wacky and pretty vivid dreams towards a week of being PMO. Some parts were pretty sexual in nature too and this morning it was a bit tougher to keep those kinds of thoughts at bay. However, having some company during the day and staying determined and keeping up with the exercise definitely helped.

    Hope the rest of you are staying on track or keep the spirit going.

    Please try not to dwell on when you 'fail'. I know from too many experiences that it doesn't help.... Being here and sharing with others is a big step in the right direction. Try to find things you can do to distract yourself from those thoughts when they occur....Getting outside and moving in some way and without your phone..... Even just a walk somewhere.

    Yes, quite rightly says @StuartR. Don't give up, fight and don't let the beauty inside you be destroyed. May God help you and give you peace and joy in your heart.

  16. They say feeling intense emotions is part of what happens when you give up an addictive behavior. Self-acceptance is the key to getting through those moments. Not that I am a nofap wizard or anything myself.

  17. Not really... maybe a little. Desire comes in waves and is worst after a reset. Once I get a good streak going it can drop off to almost nothing for a while. And then another big wave will hit me and it's reset time again unless I'm feeling really determined to resist.

  18. Guys... please don't turn off your counters if you reset. Because then I won't know how many days you have and will have to drop you from the ranking.
