    I went on a binge today of 3 relapses in a row watching hardcore P sadly, after a 14 day streak.
    Damn I wish I didnt do that.

    I have been on streaks of 11 months, 150 days, 70 days, 35 days, and now 14 days.
    I struggle so much now to keep up the streaks and I want to quit this addiction so, so badly.

    My triggers and problems are:
    - The phone. Social media and too much time on the phone cause me a lot of trouble as there is alot of triggering content there, always looking at pictures of girls that I know and such, and random memes or images which trigger me. Since I use social media for business too I moved it way way back in a folder in my phone so I wont use it as often.

    - Often times loneliness and rejection hit me hard, as the last time I received any sort of physical/emotional attention from a woman was 4 years ago (and not for the lack of trying), any of my attempts resulted in friendzone/ghosting. Yeah I get that people dont owe me anything, and a woman in my life wont solve all of my problems, but still I think it would be nice to have one in my life. :(

    So a lot of times when I feel romantically and sexually lonely (Im a person with high libido too) I resort to PMO.

    Just a few random things about me: I do bodybuilding for 4 years already, working out 5 times a week, Im a guitarist in a band, currently working in construction.

    Thanks ahead for the advice.

    Bro bust out those riffs on the chicks.

    Those are big streaks my man you must have hit some major milestones along the way. Its important to keep socializing with women that you encounter in your daily life. There's a woman for everybody on this earth. I feel like you just havent been trying on your streaks.

    I wish i even had confidence to approach chicks, so youre doing well my man.

    Thanks brother, we are actually soon recording an EP.
    Yeah I think you are right, while I was on the streaks I wasnt trying as hard - maybe I lowkey gave up? IDK
    But now once I hid all of my social media Im hoping for less triggers this time and I am really focused on ending this addiction forever, like really never masturbating or watching porn ever again.

    I guess I must not be falling into a bad mindset after a rejection or just because I havent had someone in a lot of time.
