yes, the problem started when you entered the train of pmo. why did you enter? what boundaries did you cross? what feelings were you trying to cope? that´s the real questions. but congratulations for not taking the last step . now be very aware bro, the tendency to peak can appear again. take action now.
been there so many times brother. relapse over isolation. i would say that 1 hour is already too much. now i take no chances. if i predict i´m gonna stay home alone for several hours i take the gadgets out of the house. no questions asked. Learn and rise again my brother. you can do it!!!!
Happy to see your progress brother . Hope to see you in 9 days when you begin your journey. Let´s go!!!!!
37 days my brothers. here´s an interesting study that proves porn causes emotional instability and relationships problems. https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/n...y-use-decreases-satisfaction-in-relationships "These findings of pornography’s negative impacts on relational satisfaction are consistent with an Open Letter on Porn written by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, world-renowned researchers and clinical psychologists. In their letter the Gottmans stated: “We are led to unconditionally conclude that for many reasons, pornography poses a serious threat to couple intimacy and relationship harmony.”"
Seems like almost all lines of defence failed. However because I haven't enter the site nor seen anything graphic, i don't consider this a relapse/reset (@RiseToGreatness If that's ok for you). Feeling good today, bit low on energy but still did my job, worked out and ate healthy. Day 13 down!
Day 9 completed and day 10 going to start all the best brother and have a nice day Your brother in this struggle
Day 13 checking in. I've said it a million times already, but it really sucks how porn is so normalized in today's society. Seriously, I can't go a few days without my friends showing me a porn meme or coming across something on YouTube that really shouldn't be on YouTube. I think for the former in the future I'm just going to look away and appear disinterested (even though I suppose the opposite is true). It's not worth the urges and strife just to momentarily please my friends. I'd get new friends but everyone my age is obsessed with porn and sex, so there's not much I can do on that front.
