My 60 day NoFap Challenge(ex 30-day)

Okay, I'm starting a 30 day challenge.
My name is Anthony.
My addiction story began at 14, now I'm 31. Since then I have masturbated almost every day. Despite this, I have a family, job and apartment. But I have a feeling that I am losing a lot of productivity in my life. I am wasting time because my act of masturbation can last for hours, energy for important things, as well as self-confidence.

Now my addiction looks like this: everyone leaves home (I already anticipate diminishing satisfaction) and I start surfing websites. Now it is Сhaturbate and Pornhub mostly.
I also formed a habit of touching my penis periodically (of course not in public). This happens unconsciously and often leads to masturbation, so I will try to control this behavior and be more attentive to myself and my feelings. And also study my problem every day. I would be grateful for your advice and support.

 

Thank you. I have tried headspace meditation earlier. The maximum streak is 30 days. I'm thinking of practicing again now.

 

Interesting. Once I heard about this method. I'll have to try it. TY!

 

Thanks for the kind words!

 

Okay, I want to summarize the previous days of my challenge.
At the moment, I am still following the path. And here's what helps me:
1. There was a lot of work + I was a little sick, which also contributed to abstinence). Free time, especially at the computer, strongly provokes viewing of pornography and faping.
2. Began to meditate again. Now it is 5 minutes for Headspace. Next, I'll take a course on pain in this app. When I meditated earlier, I felt pain and anxiety in the area of my heart. This pain seemed to make it difficult to focus on the right things all the time.
3. I plan to start working with a psychotherapist in the fall. There are many things in oneself that need to be dealt with.
4. I also use the rubber band method and it really helped me a few times.
I continue my journey.

 

I completed my 30-day challenge, but I understand that now the risk of breaking is higher. Therefore, I will automatically renew it for another 30 days.
I was close to breaking down because I was looking at pictures on Pinterest at work and there were pictures of half-naked girls.
Meditation works great for me, now it's 15 minute sessions every day.
I have ADHD symptoms, and I am trying to create a system for more stability.

 

I was working on Pinterest again and fell into pictures of women in sexy lingerie. Then I went to Twitter with its variety of porn accounts. I didn't fap, but that mentally masturbated. I will reset the counter. By the way, I haven't worn my rubber band for a long time...
