Day 45: halfway to what?

@Mybestlife : hi, how's the 12 steps method working? i heard about it but have never read it. i don't know if it works

 

It only gets better as the time passes. I love this sub forum because you people are doing some big change in your life.
Congratulations, you know what to do an how end this addiction for good.

 

Very good..very good indeed...I'm right behind you...whoa....I'm still in....and it is quit a challenge ...my hardest time is when I am alone and fantasizing ...I can get erections now that I have never experienced before....but I do not touch. Period. If for some reason he lets go, it won't be from touching..I finally told my wife that I am not masturbating ...she is 67 ...I am 58 ....I will continue my abstinence for the 90 days hell or high water....this is something worth doing definitely ....Keep going, you are doing great!

 

@FURPY Does it ever gets easier?

 

This is a great post. I'm continuously relapsing in the 7-14 day time and I never see the relapses as too serious or a reason to go further when the urge becomes too much. Your post has mentioned some fantastic benefits that will be gained by going for a longer period of abstinence.
I'll save this thread and read it when the urges come back. - Thank you.

 

Question - Have you stopped MO or just PMO? My goal is to quit PMO, but I do enjoy the occasional MO when I can't have sex with my wife.

 

That's a good question.....you are healing...when you heal, then what?...I still have a ways to go, but I have extreme urges
I am slowly learning how to channel those urges...if I slip, it will be START OVER AGAIN...I DONT WANT THAT
it's like climbing Mt Everest....lots of people start, but few make it to the top.
Yes...this challenge is like non other...you are fighting nature...nature is strong.
But you have one thing on your side....your will....it can be as strong as you choose.
You can be the weakest man on earth, but have the strongest will.

 

Congratulations on making it half way!! That is some achievement and I admire you're determination and self assurance in stating you will achieve your 90 day goal!! But what's most interesting to me is the question you pose; half way to what? Archieving a 90 challenge, or whatever goal we set ourselves, is a big achievement, but what then? My theory is, during the reboot process we have the time to think about our lifetime goals and reset some principles we want to live by. Of course, this will be different for everyone, but it's our time to work out what makes us happy and healthy going forward in our lives. Good luck and stay strong

 

You will make it buddy!! Just think, there are only two possible alternatives for tomorrow...waking up to Day 59 or resetting to Day 1. I know which one I'd prefer

 

What happens after day 90?

 

But yet....90 days...sooooo....if you go 90 days without food....you die.
No benefits there. But....if you save your seed....there are benefits.....
You read many threads that state benefits....yet, you need faith in yourself.
Faith can't be bought .....can't be sold.....it's free....and it's very old.
It's been around for a long time, yet so hard to find.
You have to accept it, and believe....not so easy, is it?
Yet, without faith, you would not have started this quest.
You yearn to learn....so go with it...don't give up ....
Choose your weapons, and go to war.
The enemy is within, so cast him out.

 

Would that be the world of porn?

 

Good for you, Mybestlife!
