    Relapsed
    DAY 0

    I was making so many mistakes... I didn't take anything seriously. I thought its going to be a smooth journey like last time but its not.
    Oh god plz give me and my bros/sis the strength and courage to get out of this addiction.

    I have to get out of this 1st phase of 7_10 days. Then i'll set some goals for my future.
    From now on i'm gonna be super strict regarding this. I don't want to fail again cuz it takes a lot of courage and effort to get back on your feet. I'm not afraid to make mistakes but i don't want to fail this easily i want to give my 200%..
    I'm gonna follow my routine of meditation and hoffman method breathing, exercise.
    Jay jaganath ❤️

    Day 8 - No M.O
    Day 0 - without watching P or sexual images.

    Watched sexual images but without any reaction to it what so ever. It's a slip but still a massive progress on my side because even thou I looked at images I didn't do anything or feel anything. Slowly I start to realise/remember how pointless and useless these pixles are and that none of it is worth my energy. There is absolutely a change going on. Next step is to realise/remember that it's not worth my time. Normally I wouldn't watch it without MO. But I just felt that PMO won't make things better for me.

    Detachment almost always hurts but it is for the better in the end.
    Sometime I almost feel like Gollum: "MY PRECIOUS!!". But I don't want to become like him.

    The more I think, read, study redpill subjects, including the manosphere type of redpills.. the closer I get to the conclusion that we only distract and fool ourselves throughout our lives. There are so many traps that can hijack our attention. Is there even a point of having an intimate relationship for many men in this world? And what do we need all the entertainment for?
    Or is it something much deeper, beyond that, that is waiting for us to be discovered? A life as a monk makes more and more sense as a lifestyle. I mean as a way of living - To find everything you need within yourself to be happy.

    I've been thinking of how many "onion-layers" life have that hijacks our minds and prevent us from seeing the ultimate truth. Entertainment for example. I mean it's fun, or can be. But to what end or goal? I think most humans are like blindly "surfing" waves dopamine having absolutely no idea where these waves will take them. They just do it. And they let fear control them almost 24/7. I don't want to be like that. I am not like that. Only to some extent but I can see the illusions in and around me. I just need to learn more about myself, take action and gain more self control. The modern human mind is overly confused. Peoples minds are scattered like small puzzle pieces and in worst case scenarios some people can't get a single piece together, others barely have half a braincell active, [insert any politicians name here].

    If we can get rid of all the distractions and learn how to redirect and focus that energy into the most important things in life we can experience real change. Real success. I think focus is super important. Lacking focus is like walking in a dense forest without any compass. PMO makes you lazy and leads to brain fog. PMO lowers the intelligence. Every successful man have had intense focus on his goals and never let them go.

    All the changes that needs to be made will have to take place within ourselves if we wan't to see real change happening outside ourselves.

    @Ice22 . I just hope you don't make the mistake I made. I still watched porn whilst not fapping and though it gives you a great feeling of being in control, to be able to watch porn without fapping it can lead to you being desperate for day 90 to come. As a result on both occasions I was like a trapist monk on holiday when I reached my goal, to the extent over the next few weeks I was Fapping like it was going out of style.

    Don't get me wrong I think you know what you are doing but it's just there are so many beware signs all of us need to follow.

    You are absolutely right and I must be very careful. The best thing I can do is to avoid any viusal stimulation and anything that even reminds me of P.
    I think maybe my feeling of control could be an illusion without me really knowing it.
    I mean it is an improvement since two weeks ago but I'm far away from recovered so yeah I must be very careful and realistic. I mean watching P when on NF is not logical at all. I'm holding on to crap that doesn't serve me and never had. Like an alcoholic trying to stop drinking by hiding away vodca in the closet. It just makes no sense to do so.

    I also recently realised that one of my main problems in not lacking understanding of things because I do understand many of the roots of my problems. The main problem I have is the igniting spark. To get things started or to know when to stop doing things.

    For example I have problems calming down in the evening. I always stay up too late. I think I must come up with a plan on how to slowly calm down before bedtime. To release all problems and be in the present moment.

    In the morning it's not very difficult to get up, but the worst part is to get things started. It's like everything is slow at the start of the day until later when I start to "wake up". But then I'm too energized and it's difficult to slow down.

    @Ice22 I remember watching a lecture in this forum about the rat experiment which explained addiction. In short the experiment was about all these individual rats who were given a choice of normal water or spiked water to drink which contained a chemical which got them high. All off the rats chose the spiked water when they were on their own. However after the experimenters created a rat like heaven universe for them, where they all got to interact and have fun together, none of the rats ever drank the spiked water, possibly due to fact they had more interesting things to do with their time than getting a short term high. Obviously I can't speak for you but it certainly struck a chord with me.

    Yeah, I've heard of that experiment! Thanks for reminding me of that! I needed to hear that becase it gives me a completely different perspective. We can get so absorbed and so isolated by the addiction that it feels like it's the only thing in the world, when there are way more things to discover in life that makes us happier.
