    Hey,

    I was on a 2 month free porn streak until yesterday night due to alcohol.
    I was drinking and playing ps4 with some friends when I started to feel very dizzy, suddenly I got triggered by some Tik toks from very hot women (can’t have that app, already deleted it) and just unblocked all porn pages and began with the relapse, once I relapsed I felt good actually, the dopamine released got me feeling very relaxed and I ended up sleeping within the next 20 minutes.
    Couldn’t even sleep for 5 hours straight, I woke up feeling like a piece of shit, my hearth was hurting so bad for the mistake I made and I just felt so embarrased that I couldn’t fall asleep again. I though I was done with the porn urges at that point, but I was feeling soooo bad that I just went to pornhub again because of the pain I was into to feel a little better, didn’t masturbate or anything but I did watch some videos.

    I was starting to feel a lot of benefits been only free P, it is harder for me the MO since I can’t even reach 9 days but I have to deal again with this porn urges since that is what fucks up your brain.

    Completely agree about alcohol being a trigger.
     
  3. Although it may sometimes be difficult, I have accepted that I can no longer drink to the point of drunkenness, simply because you lose control.

    Either you relapse because you become devil-may-care when drunk, or you relapse with a hangover because you convince yourself that pornography is the great panacea.

    In any case, alcohol is no longer worth the trouble to me. I'll have one or two beers (real ale) here and there, but absolutely no spirits.

    Definitely agree about alcohol as a trigger. It lets down our guard just enough to give in. Good insight.
