About to relapse, any advice?

Do 15 pushups! Now!!!

 

i would try going for a walk too. just get outside and get some fresh air.

 

Damn nice you did even 30 Thaha that's nice to hear You could try meditating with the app "Calm" or try to read Marcus Aurelius Meditations

 

My advice? It's not worth it. Remember how low and crushed you feel after you give in and do it.

 

It has a meditation series to teach you how to meditate called "7 days of calm"

 

Like Dankest has said go for a walk or go to the gym if you can. A simple walk allows for fresh air, clearing the mind and lungs and to admire the beauty of nature and the wider world around you that you shut off when you P, M or O. The gym is great to because it's an excellent source to get an endorphin kick and feeling better about yourself its basically an underutilized antidepressant in my view. Don't give in!

 

i've discovered former BLACK FLAG front man Henry Rollins' spoken word/observational commentary and the recordings of philosopher Alan Watts post on youtube to be an incredible stabilizing factor in my recovery from PMO and substance abuse...
*listen for Henry's story about his masterbation helmet, yeah we've all been there

good luck

You can do this! This is the best start to a reboot I've ever had but I feel the temptations to. The heat doesn't help it's sapped my energy and I've been feeling the brain fog all day. My brains been trying to rationalize looking at soft porn or substitutes but I'm not listening! Mental urges suck but keep at it. Suffer today to celebrate tomorrow!

 

Focus on reality! That's what I keep telling myself. Between that and being on the forum it's the only thing getting me through these urges today. You're doing it the right reasons!
