Accountability for All

Hey guys, I need a group so I am here.. So I relapsed today, go figure, it was Day 1 on my second attempt. Before that I was on Day 5. I just kept peeking at sites. It's depressing how weak I feel. I'm here for some help, and here to help if I can. I can't allow that inch of temptation to grow anymore. No more looking at porn man, straight up, the inevitable follows it always does.
God dangit, I didn't keep myself as busy as I should have today.
Well, tomorrow is another day, right? I will be reporting here every day.

Day 1 almost complete and it was not too bad. I just keep getting these sexual thoughts in my head and cannot get rid of them.

Stay strong all!

Yes the urges will be at the peak in the first 2-3 days and the BEST way is to get out of the house. Go shopping if you have to, gym, library or even catch up with your friends so you can get it of your mind.

If urges get high at night place your laptop/phone in a place that is difficult to reach making it harder for you to get it.
 
Day 3 - Morning ----------- Less brain fog - managed to get some morning stretches in


Morning urges have disappeared - keep urself busy

Watch NoFap success videos and stories to motivate you every day

We got this boiiiiiiiiiiiis

This is by far one of the strongest methods and you must do it accurately

1. Sign up for OpenDNS. If you want to filter what can and cannot be seen on the Internet, you can use OpenDNS. Schools and government offices use it, and free options are available.

2. Create an account. Once your account is created, set your internet settings to use the OpenDNS IP addresses as your domain name servers. You will then be able to customize your filter preferences

Hi guys I have been fighting this since December I relapsed many times, it feels terrible, but I needed to change, it seems very difficult, because your mind tells you to do it and you do not want to do it, it is a constant struggle. A few weeks ago I went to an academy to learn English, since then I don't have much time, this helped me a lot, because the usual thing was PMO in the afternoon, but now I'm in class, I also try to get out as much as I can (I used to hate leave my house) Although everything seems to be going well the temptations continue, but now I try to remember how I felt when I did it (very badly), I also think about What kind of person I want to be. Guys take care of something, replace that time of day that they did PMO with something else, go for a walk, do sports, let's continue fighting.

You're right Imwithyoum8. When I start getting the urges, I should get away from my situation and go out.

I had to reset this morning. I have noticed a pattern of PMO the next day after a night of drinking. So having said that, I will stop alcohol for a month and see how my journey goes. Does anyone else feel the same about alcohol and PMOing?

I wrote down a few notes to follow when the urges come on:
  • Stop and Meditate
  • Go for a walk
  • Listen to music
  • Take a selfie - tell yourself that you can get past this. I guarantee that you are not smiling in the photo and if you are it's most likely fake.
  • Banana - believe it or not, the dopamine in bananas helps
  • Exercise
Stay strong all!

But this is not going to solve the problem its just covering it up.The goal is to be able to refuse watching porn
even though you can do it anytime.
 
Right now, I'm a scumbag. My eyes are closing and in few minutes, I'll sleep so deeply and then I'll wake up like shit. I have reached a stage where I don't know why I masturbate. I just do it. I'm like a junkie, I need my dose. Sometimes, I don't want to do it but I just do it. I used to be so productive, so energetic. I've become a procrastinator, a useless fellow. I'm ruining my life for few seconds of pleasure..
 
Day 1: Almost done.
Not bad urges today, just mentally telling myself, "No peeking mf, not today!" when the thought arose really helped. Went for a few walks, cold shower in the morning, prayed, read a bit, listened to music, cleaned up the suite a bit, went for lunch with the mother, made a bit of cash selling video games, spent less time on the web looking at pointless shit..
Feels good.
 
Just finished day 8. Almost failed today but pulled through. I am starting to wonder if I am in the beginning of a flatline. I've been tired, unmotivated and depressed these past few days. Either way I will push forward.
