[QUOTE = "traveler2, post: 1781409, membro: 263645"] Bel lavoro Maxxx, 25 giorni, stai andando alla grande, solo altri 5 fino a 30. Continua a fare un giorno alla volta e prima che tu te ne accorga, avrai raggiunto il tuo obiettivo. Molto orgoglioso di te. [/ QUOTE] Grazie viaggiatore 2, insieme camminiamo verso la vittoria!!!
I was feeling pretty good, confident, then I did something stupid - I had a few drinks and that brought my guard down. Ended up back on some awful sites which I wish I'd never seen in the first place. Very disappointed in myself, dumb move, I almost had a week done already. But I believe in total honesty here, so I am resetting right now and will try this challenge again. My third try. Thanks everyone for your support, I shall try and be smarter this time.
Actually I think that I have destroyed my life and career at this early age of 26 due to these bad habits. My face looks like a drug addict and physically i also look like a very sick person and it seems that I might have gone a long way if I wouldn't have done that. These are the main reasons of depression. But I will take your advice from now on and try to act upon that.
Am going through the same thing. Struggling to break through that 7 day mark. we cants give up. maybe force majeure, Dr. jekyll or anyone who pass 7 days can support us.
This is not an easy journey if it was there would be no need for sites like this. I have been addicted for well over 50 years and it wasn't until just recently I was able to admit for the first time that I am a porn addict. Up until then I always said that I could give it up any time, but the truth was I couldn't because I wasn't honest with myself. Once my wife turned me onto this site and I started reading the forums and the postings I finally admitted that I was an addict and for the first time I saw some of the damage I had caused in some of my relationships. It was at that point that I decided to do something about it and started my first ever reboot with no PMO. I lasted the first time for 48 days and I am now 25 days into my second reboot after a relapse. What I realized after my relapse was first it wasn't really worth it for a few minutes of pleasure and second how disappointed I was in myself and how disappointed I made my wife. I know better now what some of my triggers are and I avoid them or if I start to get the urge I either go do something to get my mind off of the urge or I come to this sight and read some of the posting. We are all going through the same thing and most of us have failed at it, but it is what you do afterwards that will set you apart. Do you get back up and start your reboot again, realizing what happened and work to insure that it won't again or do you just start again not realizing what cause the relapse. I know you can do this. Instead of focusing on a whole week, make it through today and then tomorrow worry about making it through tomorrow and so on, pretty soon you will have completed a week and then a month and so on. Good luck, we are all here supporting you.
Yeah I've also been stuck trying to get past that first week myself. We have to recommit to our long-term goal and know that it's possible to succeed if we're serious about it.
I saw the following video on another thread recently. It's lengthy, but saturated with material and while geared toward entrepreneurship, I think the same principles are in the mix no matter what the goal may be. There may be at least some morsels or insights there to take away from it. Agree or disagree, it at least gets the mind thinking. Thanks, @happysloth !
Day 20/60 Alot has happened and nothing has happened, at the same time. There's no excuse but I'm back in it!
You're already young, get yourself back and be the best version of yourself. It's never too late to change.
I don't know if you do that but I do that : try to find every "P seatbelt" to keep you away from what can make you fail => every time your going to give up you have to "unbuckle the belts" before doing this ****. The more you have the better.
Day 2/60: Today I got rid of my Twitter and Reddit accounts. This is no longer just removing porn from my life, it's to save my marriage as well.
