Ok peeps.... My first post and probably first of many! Situation is 37yoa, beautiful family and wife. Came to realisation i have struggled with a porn addiction for many years and so have decided to join you brave souls to try and over come its grip on me... "excuse the pun" I have been reading post's and think i might be able to do this by sharing here. I have just reset after 22 days so a bit deflated... Haven't gone that lenght of time for years and was really getting a kick out of the testosterone and adrenaline, was super motivated but caved in after a long day. So I need to identify where my weakness are, record here and use it to form a strategy to learn to control the trigers. Finding my phone has become a quick and easy access to material so this will be the first trigger to tackle. Thanks for taking the time to read this and you all have my greatest respect.
This is my first post also. Don't consider this a failure. Going X days without PMO is an accomplishment. You've reduced the frequency significantly. PMOing only every 22 days is certainly better than daily. Try to beat 22 starting now.
Dont worry bro. It gets easier everyday. Im on day 28 and its been totally worth it. During the 1st week I used to tell myself that ill just wait for 2 weeks and get back to it again but during the 2nd week I got my shit together and they slowly started to reduce, the urges. Now they hit me just occasionally if a porn scene flashes in my mind or when im alone etc etc. Im gonna go till 200 days. Lets hope I make it. Good luck to you too.!
I have felt so many times I just can't remember! Beating bad habits that have been done for years and years is quite difficult! all the best
hard mode day 13 for me. i accord 100% to pafon1 - PMOing only every 22 days is DEFINITELY better than daily three times! this is my first try to get clean - i had no relaps till now. but thinking this way sounds good to me. the urge is not the main problem - the brutal pressure in my brain is a problem.
