    Today I'm a mess. I eat junk, drink tea and coffee all the time and can't focus on work. I shut the PC on and off, I watched an old episode of South Park, I watched some minutes of GoT looking for nudity but then I shut it off. I disabled my acc. software for watching yt, nearly escalated to sexy stuff. In between I did some work but without much effort or delight.

    I'm determined not to relapse today! I will take the pain. I will survive this day of shit.
    It wouldn't be so hard if I just could focus on something.

    I don't even have explicit fantasy on my mind, it's just that my body says: PMO!

    Writing this is already helping and I would be grateful for your support !

    You are strong and have the ressources, this shitty day will have a nice silver lining when you'll look back at it.

    If you feel like every cell of your body is screaming for it, go for a short walk or go talk to someone for 10 minutes, since you're at the workplace. Concentrate on what they say and try for the conversation to be almost one sided for their benefit only. It will help you focus and clear the way for the rest of the day.

    Also, breathing techniques ! Can be done virtually everywhere (even in a meeting) without anybody noticing. It's a skill so the first times it won't be very effective, be prepared for that ;)

    Peace

    When this used to happen to me - and it did, and it was strong - I would go outside for a walk, and not let myself back in the house until it had passed. This is the addiction fighting you, because it's scared for its life. It's lashing out like a cornered rat. It is going to die, because you're killing it, so it's throwing everything it has at you in desperation. Hold on. Don't quit now. Your job is to be still on your feet when it hits the mat.

    Can someone send this post to NASA to calculate how many metaphors I mixed?

    Thanks @TheFutureMe and @AllanTheCowboy
    I'm just coming home from a little shopping spree (unfortunately I'm working home today).
    I feel lighter now, yes I will look back on this day with a good feeling in the end. I think Nofap helped me today, I will shut down my computer now (for the rest of the day) and do some more work. If it wasn't an efficient day at least it was a clean one. Tomorrow I will eat better and choose my actions better.
    Thank you again and see you soon!

    Believe me, It is not your body that says: PMO! but your mind...
    It is a huge issue to understand and a key point. In fact, your body is tired with PMO. It sucks its energy.
    Keep it up. You are doing great my friend.
