    I know this must sound like a stupid question, but I am 15 days into life with no porn and I am seriously starting to miss my online highs. Is this a 'normal' part of a reboot and if so, does this pass? If I can make it through this phase, what do I do to get me through this?

    Yeah. Those highs are an easy way to achieve quick "happiness" so it makes sense that you want to get back there. Resist! Distract yourself get involved with a project, go for a long vigorous walk! Stuff like that!

    Yea.... really easy ways to quick happiness! But I know it is not good for me. Thanks for suggestions. Vigorous walk.... good idea! It is winter where I am so that should shake up things a bit for me...

    You and me both! The last two days I have really missed the highs. But we must see this as a sign of progress and fight on! Good luck.

    If you're starting to miss the highes then remember the lows which were the aftermath of those highs. You ask what can you do to get you through this and I'll answer with another question; what would Sir. Thomas More do? :)

    If you skip a meal, you start to become hungry right? Same principle here :)

    That's a problem that arises occasionally for me as well. Ive just been trying to stay busy. And even when I'm in a boring situation where it's just me and my phone, what I've been doing is going to these forums and also YBOP to keep my mind busy learning. Plus, the more you learn about this, the more you realize how fake and destructive those "highs" we've grown to depend on really are.
