    One more day of walking dear Fellowship.

    Let´s welcome our new member:

    @MarioVargas

    Have a great day my brothers!!! Stay in the path. The PMO ring has a smooth voice but don´t let it trick you. Keep the ring in the pocket. For those who are still wearing the ring, keep fighting brothers!!!!


    Finishing Season 17 of "rebooting as the best remedy" from nofap legend, Soaring Eagle

    "Lastly, let's discuss the issue of pressure-induced masturbation.

    According to my research and summaries, normally among brothers, there will be the emergence of two negative orientations:

    1. Masturbation before bed: with the purpose of masturbating in order to fall asleep easier, this habit greatly injures the kidney qi, once accumulated to a certain degree the result is insomnia.

    2. Pressure-induced masturbation: turning pressure into masturbation behavior, this kind of situation is also very common.

    I have mentioned about masturbation before bed in the above, in the below let’s discuss pressure induced masturbation. Pressure-induced masturbation can be divided into several groups, there is the pressure from seeking employment, academic pressure, pressure from parents, social relationship pressure. Living in this world one would receive different forms of pressure, therefore there is a saying: it is easy to be born, living is not easy, life is not easy.
    Among the brothers that I have met, some have failed to find a job, some has been scolded by the wife, by the parents, the loss of mood control, big mental pressure, under these circumstances one seeks the comfort of masturbation and through it hoping to get rid of the negative emotions. To be honest, I used to be like this all the time, either being scolded or didn’t do well on an exam, on the same evening I would for sure masturbate. Masturbation was like an outlet for relief, hoping to empty me via masturbation and then to think of nothing, a day would simply pass in this way.

    This way of relieving oneself is not worth having because it is harmful to the body, although it may have an alleviating effect for releasing mental pressure, in summary, the harm outweighs the benefit. Therefore, one must overcome this kind of tendency, there are other ways to clear out the pressures of life, one does not have to rely on masturbation. A good way is through exercising, of course, one needs to pay attention to its intensity. The way that I advocate is to adjust the mind, pressure dislodges your psychological balance, you need to learn to adjust it back to a state of equilibrium, allowing oneself to remain the state of tranquility. The ability to regulate the mind is a mood managing ability, everyone may read more about emotional intelligence related books, which will help in better managing one’s mood.

    Among the brothers that I have consulted, many people relapse due to problems in the mood, life not turning out according to expectations, pressure from life, these led to the loss of mood control. Under these psychological conditions it is relatively easy to break the reboot when we are not feeling too high and have no outlets, why not masturbate, just like that we have unconsciously relapsed.

    In writing this article, the purpose is to let everyone to see clearly the importance of mood management. With a stable emotional state, only then will there be the hope of making a complete reboot and never looking back!"

  9. Thank you very much @RiseToGreatness it is fantastic what you have achieved in this challenge, it is good to gradually leave this damn problem (PMO), and let your imagination fly with these great books, I hope I can throw that ring to the Mount Doom now that for many years I have used it and the damage it has done in my life is enormous.

    for all of us who are in this challenge and the new people who join, fight with all the strength you have, it is worth every damn second of the day to live in a different way, a way where you are free, where you have control of your life, where you start to be happy

    Finally I wanted to ask you where you put (Gollum), after all he is smarter than the Orcs and Uruk-hai?

    Day 14 : )
     
  10. Day 3: Still recovering from this past weekend's relapse. Slowly but surely I'll get there.

    Too long has F(ap)rodo been caught in the evil powers of the porn ring.
    It is time to be inspired by his example and to destroy the porno prison!

    I am a HOBBIT now! The true journey begins.

    I could not stay away too long from this challenge. I felt like I was not worthy of the challenge until I could reach hobbit level again. Alas, I now realize that I need the support from this challenge. I had a full relapse last night at 1AM, and I have been feeling crummy ever since. I did not want to get out of bed this morning, only rising at 9AM, and I took a short, depressed nap at noon. I has returned to the journey to Mount Doom after only two days because I cannot do this alone. Even Frodo had Sam. Merry had Pippin. Legolas, Gimli, and Aragorn had each other. Bilbo had the dwarves, and they all had Gandalf. Even Gollum, a life long slave to the ring (PMO) had Frodo before he completely gave in and lost his life because of it. Right now I feel like Gollum, so I need to find my Frodo to guide me to freedom, and eventually, I will become like Sméagol again, the Hobbit of my past and future, and then I will make my way forward as Frodo, finding my Sam in life. I suppose even the Orcs were once elves before being corrupted and bred into submission, so that means even they were once free, even if that freedom was bred out of them after millennia of corruption by the forces of PMO. However, I don’t think of myself as an orc, I think of myself as a Gollum. Having a distant memory of a life before porn, but nonetheless a slave to it. Orcs have no hope. They are born into slavery, and will die in slavery. As a Gollum, I have a choice. I can choice to continue to be a slave, or I can fight the urges and become a Sméagol, and then a Hobbit, with more hope, and eventually move onto an Elf. In fact, going forward in this challenge, I am obviously still an orc for the sake of the challenge, but I will think of myself as a Gollum, and when I become an Urah-Kai, I will think of myself as a Sméagol, until I reach Hobbit level, when my dual identity becomes one on the join to destroy my PMO ring.

    Best,
