Hey Fapstronauts,
I'm on day 22 without PMO.
I know some of you aren't religious but I get the strength from God. It feels like a wonder.
I am a woman and you have to know that some of us are also struggeling with these porn issues and lust.

 

Welcome! Always a joy to have a fellow fighter among us.

 

Hey guys,
So today, i did relapse. You were right. No doubt about it, it will be hard. It was foolish of me to think i can breeze through it.
I seen some peeps on day 72 and struggling hard. But, i do feel like i am on the verge of moving past this habit. I have not watched porn since i started, relapse by MO.
Oh well, you struggle i struggle we all struggle. I am not discouraged by any means. Just want to wish the best for everyone who is really trying.
Your hard work will pay off.
I am still learning all the ropes to this site and such, hopefully i can be more involved

 

*Sigh* I made it 21 days.

 

I've figured out how to block certain websites on my computer. This should help.

 

Day two of no PMO and April completed.

 

Keep it up. I'm back to square one, but you gotta start (or re-start) somewhere.

 

22 April today. And still going !!

Who's managed to go the whole month fap-free so far?

 

Day 13: Couple of near misses, but still hopeful to make it though weekend unscathed


Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for I am with the Lord.

 

Two relapses in the week, but what's worse is the chaser effect which on both occasions has spilt over into the next day. Am so tired, depressed, and feeling physically depleted. I know what the underlying pattern is that is playing out, goes right back to my teenage years. I'm in my early 50's now. Yet have no idea how to heal the lost young man that I was back then, who is anesthetizing and pushing his pain down. Am working in the present, allowing the feelings and recognising them, but then it's like a voice whispering in my ear, let yourself have a go.. you'll feel better. The anxiety that has been coming up this week has been right into the red zone.

Keep on my brothers. keep on.

 

Im in! Time to take control! lets get it done!

 

Day three completed. Not really any urges A few thoughts.

 

God bless you Brother

 

Hey brother. That's tough. Thank you for sharing. I hear what you're saying.

My practise at the moment is quite simple; I'm learning to be ok with discomfort - the discomfort of painful emotions and unwanted thoughts. Nothing bad will actually happen to you. In fact acting out will be more painful than the pain of the thoughts themselves. So don't run, but don't dwell either. Just let them go in a kindly friendly manner. They will fade. Teach yourself to be ok with discomfort.
