    Keeping myself accountable. Another slip today. Was very tempted and was about to turn off Google SafeSearch.

    I think this might be the only time that I have said this...but I am glad the weekend is over lol

  3. Day 56.
    Been a little tempted lately. Trying to do dopamine detox is tricking my brain again to think P is okay. Really hoping to get past this hurdle.
     
  4. @RiseToGreatness Forget what I said about being an Uruk-Hai. The spell of porn is strong in me, and I'm back to being an Orc.

    ...sigh. This one really sucks, for some reason. Can't wait to look into some of those porn blockers; thank you for the recommendations.

  5. Day 223. Been pretty stressed lately and I've had my fair share of temptations lately, but this forum is always in the back of my mind when it comes to that and thanks be to God I have not given in. See you all in a few days when I reach elf king status! God bless.

    Day 22

    The urge to peek is getting stronger! But I must control myself for once I peek, I'm very likely to go down the rabbit hole.
    I just watched a flexibility video done by a woman. "It's a sport related thing" I have told myself, but the truth is that my mind is looking for sexual stimulation everywhere. I have to watch out for lies like this and ask myself if the purpose of what I'm doing is really pure.

    By the way, this equals my best streak since I joined this challenge. I'm happy about that.

    Day 55 completed:

    A death silence swept the halls. I try to pass unnoticed under the mountain but the PMO forces are cunning and have arisen.

    In the bridge of Khazad Dûm a strong battle is fought against PMO.

    I'm sorry dear fellowship, I finally failed.
    Nevertheless, This streak has given me strenght and confidence.

    I think I'm going to try a dopamine detox because I feel like I tend to rely on other dopamine sources when I'm not doing PMO.

    Day 0

    I failed. It always seems to be Mondays that defeat me. If I can break through that barrier then I think I will be able to complete longer streaks. I sometimes overthink nofap which causes me to relapse. If I can focus more on other things and take my mind off it then I will be able to destroy this ring forever.

    still those hesitations periods are a red flag bro. you got to see what´s happening in your life (feelings, circunstances, triggers, etc) that makes you wanna slide. take measures bro, now.

    no need to reset the counter to enter the challenge bro. that´s one of the rules: "start in the streak that you´re in" ;). so for us, you can change the counter and put the correct data on it, no problem.

    this comes to prove once more that perseverance is the game changer in any achievement in life. you did great my brother, i remember you struggling to get pass one week, and here you are, 22 days in!! amazing :) it was a great period of reboot.

    now you need to know why you fell. what tools/skills you still need to develop in order to keep sobriety running. Carry on my brother, you´re doing great!!!! :)
