    Hi guys,

    I've relapsed this week two times by PMOing. What should I do, it seems I lost motivation. Even if I got motivated again, it won't last for 90 days.

    I though about blocking porn, but it's not an option as the title said. For me, bypassing blocking scheme like K9, Net nanny, or even OpenDNS is just a piece of cake (I'm not being ego, but I know small trick which I won't share that do that).

    So the only option for me is to block the Internet get rid of smart devices. I can't do that, I need Internet for work.

    What should I do :(:confused:

    doing.it, I know the feeling. I have put blocks in place before, and I can always find a way around them. This is where the only answer is to man up and fight this thing head on. I'm being a hypocrite telling you that, because I have yet to beat this addiction too, but I have faith that I can beat it. I also understand the feelings of having no motivation. I know when I first found this website, I was super motivated, but slowly over time I became less and less motivated, even though I had made it over a month without MO'ing, which was a big step for me. Since then I have given in, but this past week has been pretty good. I made a rule that twice I day I have to log onto this site whether I feel like it or not, or whether I am feeling tempted that day or no. I set up an alarm on my phone to go off the two times of day that I most often find myself getting tempted. Before my latest relapse, I started getting really lax at visiting the site everyday. I kept telling myself that I was doing good, and I didn't need to come onto the site, and things like that, but eventually I fell, and I fell hard. But then I picked myself back up, and hopefully I can make it longer than I did last time.

    Other things that might help is to find someone either on here or in real life who you can talk to on a daily basis and you can be accountable to. Even if it is someone on here that you just send a message to each day to let them know how you did the previous day. If you wanted to send me a private message, I would be more than happy to message you back and forth on here.

    The last idea I have is actually writing and encouraging people on here. I have found this to be the biggest help with my motivation. Even more so than writing my personal story on here. Often times I will come to the site and not be really "in the mood", to be in the PMO fighting spirit, but after getting on here and trying to encourage people, I get an instant boost to stay away from PMO.

    Good luck. Keep fighting, and keep up the motivation. You can do this.
