    Well a week ago, my wife called me out about looking at porn and I lied, then finally fessed up. But I still lied. This morning I edged but for 5 minutes . So I didn't want to have sex tonight mainly because I'm really tired from work but I could have preformed. For the last week I thought things were cool. Tonight I am on the couch. I was honest tonight my wife says she is focusing on herself and our children. I do understand that she still stings from before and I understand. Tonight I emailed someone from an addiction meeting. I feel it's time. I feel like I just can't control myself and I feel like I can't do it alone. I always prepared myself for a day my wife went cold. I'm a lot better than I used to be. I used to watch porn everyday and materbate till I was raw, I would sext with other girls it was bad. I've come a long way to just relapsing here and there and it was rare. My marriage is falling apart, and my wife doesn't completely understand my addiction but I do understand how she feels but I feel I have problems controlling myself.
     

  2. Hello, I'm sorry to hear about your problems, but if you made it to day 74 then you can't have too much of a problem controlling yourself. Keep up the good work and hopefully you can make things right with your wife. Good luck.

    I've made it to day 100, it's really tough, on Sunday I'm going to go to a support group for this addiction. I emailed the guy who runs it, I'll call him tomorrow

  4. The obsession and pleasure of PMO simply has to be replaced with the obsession and pleasure of something else until you've completed the reboot period, and then, hopefully, PMO urges will no longer be torturous. As for me, music stream sites help a lot. But let's face it! Cold turkey is cold turkey, and it's never fun but necessary. We're all here because we never practiced moderation in the first place.

    You described it perfectly these urges hit and they drive me crazy to where I feel I have to get rid of it. I try really hard. I honestly don't know what's going to happen I never do. But I know that I need to go somewhere where I can talk to people like me. I don't have anyone I can really talk to about it. I do understand why my wife feels the way she feels and why she so hurt and angry. I just wish she understood how the urges feel to me and not just judge me. I'm a lot better than I used to be,but I need to reboot. I'm always ashamed and embarrassed to talk to someone in person about it but I know I need to fix myself even if my marriage can't be saved I need to do it. I love my wife with everything I have but I need more help than she can give me.
     
  6. Then I suggest that your mood changes into self-righteous anger so you can save your marriage! Don't let PMO have the last laugh over you if you wind up in divorce court! Like a soldier, do what needs to be done and declare victory!

    I honestly need to get past the urges, the feeling drives message crazy, i used to sext with girl, look at porn everyday and I would pmo all day on my days off, I've beaten all but losing the urge to masterbated. I will edge but I won't orgasm because I will eventually snap out of it and realize what I'm doing. I think overcoming the urges is going to be the toughest yet. Thanks for your advise and being straight forward with me. I don't have a lot of people I can talk too, and when this stuff hits I try to reflect and see what I can do to control it better
