Hello
My longest streak was 29 days but now I really reached 35 days and going .
The goal is to reach 90 days but I really don't know what's before me. I think I still get the urges but they're weak, I guess the neural pathways are getting weaker that's why they the urges are weak.
When we are bored ,tired,alone,angry,anxious our brain learned to watch porn and masturbate because every time we felt this feelings we watched porn and masturbated over and over again.
Can anyone tell me what's before me?

First of all, congratulations!!

What's before you is a big change of habits, more emotional stability and willpower, but only if you keep being consistent.

Your mind will try to trick you, especially when you feel at your best, so ALWAYS be on your guard.
NEVER, and I mean NEVER lay down you guard.

Good luck and congratulations!!

Congrats that's really good going!

I've managed to get to 100 days on a couple of occasions, but these were before my bad relapses during lockdowns. I seemed to have more willpower those days.

In general, I think things get easier after the first couple of weeks. You get urges, but as you say, they are weaker and easier to push away.

What's in store? At some point, you might get some kind of flatline: a total loss of lipido combined with low overall motivation.

Also, beware, while the urges generally tend to weaken, they might return with a vengeance out of the blue, when you least expect it. This might happen after encountering a trigger, when you're particularly tired, or even when feeling chill and content with yourself. A lot of guys relapse between 30 and 90.
 
Day 57 of breaking free from my addiction
No longer objectifying, much more focused and productive.
I'm so grateful to tell you that I feel like I'm going to put this shit aside for the rest of my life.
Educate yourself, and take faith in God.
Porn & Masturbation is not an option any more.
