    So I just broke my 5 day streak yesterday. Porn triggers are everywhere even on a simple messenger app like telegram. I'd advise to use CloudViel a free to use telegram client which does not have any search functionality. I succumbed to a romantic scene in a movie and then used telegram of all things. I know what I have to do, be extremely mindful when I see a trigger but sometimes I get lazy and let the train of thoughts run wild which eventually leads to the sin. Now I'll muster all my strength into being mindful the next time I see a trigger. What I've observed is that once the urge fueled by my carnal thoughts reach a threshold I become an automaton, all actions leading to watching porn happen automatically and I feel as if I cannot intervene. We must intervene ... just a little earlier than we usually try to and that's what I'll do next time. Wish me luck.

    Its strange how much I've learned from this problematic behavior of mine.
     
  4. Wish you lots of luck, and lots of inner strength when you find yourself encountering a trigger. Keep fighting and you will strengthen your will power each time. Again, all the best.

    I forgot that my mind is also a trigger not just any trigger but a random one.

    I always let the guard down whenever I feel the trigger and it does make me fall down
