Reached day 12 after forced PMO...so far...

So I recently tried a "forced PMO" technique, where, in the event that I feel a lapse coming on and begin looking at explicit material, I immediately force myself to finish. Since the last time I implemented that technique, I have lasted for almost 12 days and am still counting up, which is my first streak this year that is longer than 5 days. From what I gather, it's a relatively new technique. Since establishing a personal rule to use it at any time necessary, I've only used it twice: the first time was the day after setting the rule and the second time the day after that. Since then, I have been clean and have zero desire to go back and try again. It appears that forcing a negative experience into what is normally an artificially pleasurable event makes said event undesirable. I'll continue updating my progress every few days. For now, this technique has been a success so far. My will to achieve has increased exponentially, though my brain is still a bit cluttered from all of the extra activity. I'll continue to post updates the next few days.
