Three weeks down! Should feel good about it, but actually feel like crap right now...
Anyway, let's make it four weeks!

 

Well, I made it to this evening and then relapsed. But my goal still stands.

 

Incidentally, I said earlier that I was gonna stop counting days, and now I feel the need to explain why.

Let me start by saying that when I say I'm gonna stop counting days, I don't mean I'm turning off my counter on this site. That's gonna keep running; I'm just not gonna check it.

Now for the reasons. First, I decided to stop counting days because I feel like if I focus too much on it, I'm gonna become too reliant on the counter, and not on the things that will actually help me quit porn and masturbation. This isn't just me wanting to break a habit, this is a lifestyle change - that's what you do when you recover from an addiction. You're changing your life. You're turning it around and getting rid of what was wrong with it before in favor of a new, better life. I need to out my focus on the things that'll actually help me do that, not on how long it's been since my last relapse.

The second reason is because what sometimes happens to trigger a relapse is I'll check on how long it's been, notice that it's been 20 days, or 25 days, or 30 days, or whatever, and then the addicted part of my brain will say, "You know what? I've had a good run here! I think I can afford a little indulgence." And then, boom - relapse. But if I don't actually know how many days it's been, then it's harder for me to make that excuse.

Now I don't want to be misunderstood. I'm gonna keep my counter running (just not checking it), and I still am gonna be on this thread. I might even jump on here on occasion just to see how everyone is doing. And I'm also not saying that any of you who are still keeping track of days should stop. But when I said earlier that I was going to not keep track of my days anymore, I felt like it would confuse some people. So, this is why.

 

Day 22 down!

The length of a streak doesn't matter, it's more of an indicator... NoFap is a day by day thing. So even after 20, 30, 60 or more day, we still have to give our best.
Make it a lifestyle and you'll never have to count days anymore!

To all my best brothers in this battle
I wish you a very good week!
Keep up the good work!

 

Day 25 down!
