    So I'm back after a relapse. First four days were fine. Now I suddenly feel an immense desire to jerk off. Trying to work through it. I know right well that as soon as I orgasm. I'm going to feel empty and depressed and back where I started. That's keeping me on with this for now.

    I just keep thinking. "God. No PMO forever?" How can I manage that." Surely I'll have to go back eventually.

    Does this feeling pass? If so, when?

  2. It comes in waves. Just worry about today. You can do what you want tomorrow or the next...but today you will not Pmo. Go by hours if it helps.

  3. Man, for me, the only thing that is worse than trying not to jerk off is the feeling that I am doing great. That false pride has always come before I have relapsed, so I am really wary of it now. Go figure! That middle ground is ideal. Stay busy, look ahead, find something to do that'll keep those hands busy. Good luck. I think you can do it.

  4. I can relate so much to this. One minute I’m thinking about how much ass I’m kicking and then in the blink of an eye I relapse.

  5. Totally! But I guess you have to experience it a few times to really understand it. Sure as hell glad it wasn't just me!

    Yeah. Trying to stay occupied anyway.

    It's amazing how my brain keeps trying to manufacture excuses to PMO "just one more time". I try to stay focused on the fact that I've been fooled by that many times before and it's always the same and it will the same if I relapse again.

    I'm trying to think about in terms of milestones also. As in: working towards ten days. Then thirty days and so on. Moving from one to the next.
