    Every time I encounter a sexual image on TV or on the internet, my brain keeps obsessively thinking that it's a relapse and that it will affect my recovery....I don't know what to do, that obsessive thought keeps causing me great deal of anxiety and worry that will not stop

    Hola, bueno al final del camino debemos de reconocer en el caso de los hombres la belleza de la mujer (vida real) superar esos sentimientos es una meta pero en equilibrio o control... La P virtual es muy diferente a cómo llegar a tener una relación estable con alguien, hay un precio, esfuerzo, tiempo invertido, No es algo inmediato -- fugaz -- ánimo

    Your brain is probably trying to tell you - "And... That's it, you failed. It's a relapse man, give up that stupid lifestyle, It's time for a little fun, you already lost so who cares?".
    I can tell you one thing from my experience - It's not about creating a perfect streak, closing yourself in a bubble, becoming a monk. Sometimes you will feel bad after seeing some erotic pop-up, advert or sex scene in a movie. But... It's a part of the process. And most of the time it's out of your control, so the best way to cope with that is to simply accept this and move on with your mission. In the end you will learn something important - Self-compassion and self-control. The urges will come and go...
    You should be concerned only when you consciously choose to surf the web in a search of hot pics, or when you consciously grab your equipment and start to masturbate...
    Sooner you will learn to accept being just a man who drifts in a sea of lust the better for you.
