Day 36

 

yes.
here is what happened.
i had gone to give an exam. the centre was 3 hours away from where i stay. the exam itself went well, but while returning, i got an urge. one hour into the return journey, i decided to give in to the urge and relapse when i reach home. but there were still 2 hours to go before reaching home.
in those two hours, the urge also went away. but simply because i had decided i came home and relapsed.

that is so nice man!

 

MOed. Was travelling throughout the day, into the night today. Messed up my bedtime. I should have just stayed overnight somewhere. Slept but urges woke me up in the middle of the night, and I chose to gave in…

What do you do when urges wake up you up from sleep? I directly go into autopilot.
I don’t PMO, been a long time since I have done it. But I am not able to shake off compulsive MOing in such cases.

Any tips?

 

Day 156 in the books!!!

 

Every certain amount of days I try different things
so right now I’m finally working again which makes things easier so I’m up at 5 and come home after 6:00 pm and shutting down in bed by 9:30

I do take supplements like vitamin c, zinc, mag, omega, d3 and multi vitamins

I try to read at least 20 pages of day
I walk 5km almost every day
I try scheduled time for shows, games etc
I did have a few lady friends that helped on my streak

Try to keep yourself busy!

 

Day 17
Periodic stretches of temptation but nothing very strong.
I may be flatlining, usually didn't enjoy my days anyway so it's not miserable only noticeable.

 

Day 35!

I've been MOing for some days now...
On one hand, I'm happy I haven't watched P for 35 days. However, my goal when I started this was to abstain from PMO altogether. So, now I need to figure out why I feel the need to repeat this behaviour so often and how to stop it, because I don't want it to lead me to consuming P again... Any suggestions?

Stay strong, everyone!

 

Day 3

Feeln really good & positive right now. S/O to Achilleus for sharing his techniques, the porn reboot podcast has just totally changed my view on this thing! I would definitely recommend listening to it if you guys haven't yet.

One thing that was a bit of a revelation to me is that holding a streak with the pressure of this is the last time ever is just unhealthy. We're human, we make mistakes. How do you bounce back? How do you think about yourself? At times, I've really hated myself and a lot of that blame has been due to my disappointment in failing to stop PMO. In my failed willpower. There's a fraction of truth there, sure, but if I give in to the i'm a failure with no willpower attitude, that just gives me more permission to give into any temptation. Then I have a week where I fall off the rails and it's back to square one. It's like a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Reframing is key. I may fuck up occasionally, but deep down I know I will succeed. When I slip, I'll learn from those mistakes and do better next time. I won't dwell on a fuck up and let it ruin my week. I've got a bright future and can already see how things have gotten better from the past month of recovery. Looking forward to the ups and downs of the ride!

Off my soap box but was good to write that out and hope it might help someone!

 

Every single time I have gone back to porn after a streak greater than 2 weeks it has always been a choice, I think it's similar for everybody.

You can do better, you deserve better.
I believe in you.
One of the most beautiful things about people is that we are more than the sum of our impulses.
Go crunch some numbers.

 

Day 11, to the relapse guys I’m the absolute first to understand the relapse! My day 11 was coming off a 20 day. I know we can all beat this, I’m certain it’s possible, relapses weren’t so bad when I stopped beating myself up about it. That doesn’t mean I am ok with it, I just pick myself back up and go again, I know I’ll break through and so will we all!

Day 5: Today was amazing as well and I hope I never lose ever again.
