  3. You guys are an inspiration to me. We all know what we're up against and we're all learning and fighting. After 30 days (PMO free for about 25 days which is by far the longest I've gone since childhood) I feel I'm starting to understand, on a bit deeper level, the damage that I've done to myself for the last 20 years, physically, mentally, and emotionally. I have days of feeling different as a contrast, and it feels right. Urges are easier to deal with right now. I hope that continues cause there is still a long ass way to go, and there is no alternative method to abstaining from the drug.

    Also, Thank you to artifact for managing this group. It really is helpful.
     
  4. Congrats on your 30 days. Glad this group has been beneficial for you.

    Hate writing this, but that’s the point isn’t it.
    After a tough week, slipping back into old habits a bit too easily, I have to admit that I slipped up. 56 days and back to zero.
    Thought everything was going fine, thought I was overcoming the urges, but a peek into that world sent me back down a spiral into the old habits.

    So, I’ve renewed the defences, will need to get back here more often again, and have started again!!

  8. Day 40 (Hard Mode). This past Sunday has definitely been the toughest day for me, at 36 days without any release (WD) you can imagine the pressure in the nether region and a bodies natural desire to relieve this build up. I am still at 40 days today with 0 emissions apart from what is being passed in pee. Regardless of this thorn in my side I have been able to remain steadfast because this body is not mine, it is a temple of the Holy Spirit which will honour God faithfully because Christ paid for it with His blood, my literal home is a sanctuary of Praise and we will serve the Lord no matter what.

    I need the Word of God, I have found it to be my weapon against not only the enemy but my flesh. “Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices; My flesh also will rest in hope.” Psalm 16:9. Jesus entered the wilderness to starve the flesh and it was through His spoken Word in which neither satan or Gods hunger prevailed against Him. I have won some battles these past 40 days mostly by entering into His presence with prayer and I have read His Word aloud. One cannot underestimate the power of the Word and how much God flows through it in supernatural way. After reading aloud on Sunday night I walked into my bathroom to brush my teeth before bed with the countenance of His freedom and victory running through and around me, it was a surreal experience, it felt like I had won a significant spiritual battle – slaying Goliath so to speak or like Samson who just killed 500 philistines. I was full of joy, not only because I had overcome but because this is who my God is and He was letting me know right there and then. My faith increased. The battle is not over, I have just won one a significant one of many more I need to fight in the months and years to come.

    The Lord wants to clean our hearts of the filth and stains that have accumulated there from this world, every stain can be removed with Jesus blood, there is not one He cannot clean whiter than snow. He then wants to make his permanent home there. Our hearts are designed to be sanctuaries of purity and holiness and stable, not swaying left or right. It is our heart that must be sanctified, the condition of the heart will reflect the outward man. We must, as mighty men of God sow to the Spirit – Galatians 6:8, “For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.” If we are sowing to the Spirit our heart is in the right condition.

    I have more energy, my brain is clearer, I am more organised, I am more positive, I have more joy, I have more hope, I have more love, I have more patience, every day is an opportunity to keep the Lords praise on my lips and be ever grateful for this freedom I am walking in. Is everything perfect? not by a long shot, early days, the enemy still likes to throw javelins of negative thoughts but I will fight. I must decrease and God must increase.

    Hope you are all remaining strong,

    Blessings.

  10. You're only back to 0 in reference to your counter. Those 56 days were positive for your brain though. Be careful with the chaser effect now. You're brain is gonna mess with you and try to get you to do it again.

  12. Sorry to hear that, but 56 is a respectable run and it actually ties my all-time record. Let's see if we can beat it!

  13. You have been added to the waiting list. Due to the number of people on the list ahead of you, it will probably be a 2 or 3 months before we have an opening for you.
     
  14. @wanttochange123 we have a spot for you in the member ranking if you are still interested in joining, but you will need to turn on your counter first.

    Checking in... this past week was rough. Fell off the wagon. I got frustrated because I wasn’t seeing the results I wanted yet. I’m refocusing on motivation... why I am doing this, why it is important, and such.

    Momentous moment for you Bro! Remarkable feat to remain on monk mode for more than 40 days. Some drastic changes surely have taken place in your brain and body. Semen has fortified your brain! JESUS is always there for all of us!
