    The reason it's so hard could be partly that nothing happened yet to set your mind.That has happened to me.When i said.This is it, now i'm not fapping because it's my new lifestyle, not because of all benefits that i will receive.As with other areas of life if you constantly say to yourself "I can't do that", it sinks deeply in your mind and you avoid doing it.It does matter what exactly you say to yourself!Few days ago i was feeling bad about myself because a woman asked me if i care for a cigarette and i said to her that i don't have which wasn't true.My Cognitive Behaivioural Therapist told me that i wasn't going to feel bad if i told her what actually was true that i do not want to, because of the reason that i know smoking is bad and actually i'm gonna feel responsible for her health.

    90 days is a long long time!How you expect to get rid of instant gratification for all this time if you can't do it for 5min?Start making instant gratification exercises.When you know you want something deny it to yourself for a given amount of time.Set a clear actually achievable goal.I tend to deny myself a cigarette whenever i feel, but instead i do something first and then reward myself.It's just like training a dog, watch some videos and see, it's just that you are training yourself.

    Train your focus and concentration.Meditation teach that.If you don't like the idea.You can go to a shooting range.Sports shooting teaches the same thing.I think it should have similar effect.Focus, concentration, breathing!It will give you the ability to catch a thought, examine if you wish, laugh at it if you must, release and switch focus to what you were doing.I feel virtually no urges at all since i started doing that.Sometimes i feel even that i am not doing something right, but there is results.I became more confident and got attention from women, feel less anxious and stressed.I even feel sorry for the guys that struggle so much.I know what it is.I used to feel that way myself.

    I promised a cigarette to myself when i'm done with this, so i wish you well, stay strong, love and peace!
