Never felt better. I'm more open person, my mind is cleaner and I feel a lot of joy. But it's not over. I have to fight everyday to be a better person.
205 days - It was like a dream for me when I first tried to forget about that addiction. Today I was reading article about that masturbation is healthy and everybody there was shaking his heads to accept that it's true. What a bullshit. I remember when I was doing it... those days when I was out of energy and feeling awful with myself. Maybe it's not only about pmo thing - I made a little progress in a every aspect of my life but I know that it's playing a big role. Why this world is lying us so much? Giving us remedy for our emptiness by porn and telling us that It's normal. Now I see those youngsters who reads all that lies in the internet. I remember me few years ago... Now I want to feel happiness without things giving us fake instant reward. I'm very thankful for places like this. It was really helpful for me to abstain from PMO. Thanks again guys. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew5:14-16
Congrats just make sure to keep carrying on and never give in to this addiction if it is still an addiction for you.
Yesterday I was viewing this forum and... I was little shocked almost 333 days. What can I say about my life? New job, new friends, old friends too, new perspectives... I've met a beautiful girl. Everything changed. Faith in my life is really important. I believe that is a main factor of those thing that you'all can read above. So... God bless you all! and pray for me sometimes. Love
I'm very happy for your success! I'd recommend meditation as a secular alternative to prayer for those of us who do not have a belief in God. But apart from that, I found your post very useful, informative and inspiring!
Meditation. Especially Loving-Kindness meditation. That has a very similar effect to prayer, in terms of the emotional experience.
Congratulation brother, your a real legend I have one question what was the hardest phase of the journey ?
You really inspired me man. I believe I can do the same and so that's my goal, I know it's possible and so imma take it day by day and set small goals, that will eventually lead to big goals.
Thx but I'm just regular guy who found the light. The hardest part? I think the beggining - I remember my ups and downs... It was not so easy to stand up.
I see that you're on the run... One Tip? Don't ever believe in thoughts like - "Today I'm gonna watch porn last time..." And about blocking sites: there's a program called - Cold Turkey. If you gonna block something you can't unblock it:]. (Free version offers 3 days block period...) http://getcoldturkey.com Keep it up!
I like the cold turkey idea. But surely once urges kick in, most people will just uninstall it, right? A permanent blocker than can't be undone would be awesome.
