Yikes, I almost slipped...

Yeah, it is fucking difficult, but there's no way around it. You gotta keep strong, especially the 2nd week.

 

Block off youtube, that's what I did.

 

Yes, block off youtube, resist all temptation.

 

Good work Johnny,

I made a similar mistake not to long ago. Not a playlist, just a series of music videos I knew could be potential triggers. I like you was able to stop in time but it makes the day more difficult then it needs to be. Yours was accidental, hey it happens. Unfortunately mine was not. And did I from my mistake? Not so sure, I watched a couple of videos this morning, that could again trigger me. I think I may have a problem with boredom and/or unstructured time.

This is, quite possibly, the hardest thing I have ever done. But your right. The benefits far out weigh the difficulty.

Keep up the good work,
Geyser

 

Hey, you can do it! Remember that every time you feel triggered and fight it off, you are exercising your willpower and making it stronger! Several studies have proven that willpower is like a muscle that grows stronger with exercise.

Sex is everywhere in our society, and you're going to see triggering things all over. But think of each one as a challenge that makes you stronger in the long run. Don't frame it as challenges wearing you down one by one; that's the wrong attitude and it is actually not how the brain works.

BE PROUD OF YOURSELF, Johnny Chimpo!! You saw those triggering images and you said no! If anything, that proves that you have the strength to get through this.
