Day 3 out of 30. Seeing my partner for a few days starting tomorrow so hopefully that keeps me going through to the end of the week.
It's been too long that i have not come back here and I have not been able to meet the 30 days goal. So guys, no matter what do NOT forget that we can recover from our addiction! Day 1, here I come.
Day 14/30 Two weeks y'all, and still going strong. Experiencing the consistency that comes with staring my problems in the face every day, rather than trying to ignore them until they go away on their own. Trust me-- one of these is the better way. I'll let you figure out which. Today I went on a 15-mile bike ride in the city with friends, up along Lake Michigan... The nice thing about riding your bike in a big city is if you let yourself get distracted by a lovely lady, you'll most likely crash into a parked car. Aha. How's that for negative reinforcement? Joking aside, getting good exercise was a "distraction" from homework, but an excellent way to clear my mind, so that I don't end up relapsing from the stress of school the next couple days. Pray for me, or whatever you do, because the next couple weeks have the potential to be real rocky, but also really fulfilling. Trying to milk my last few weeks in this city for all they're worth, and my vision for that does NOT involve PMO. Shalom urban_pilgrim
Day 14/30 (cont).... Oh. and I should mention. I'm taking a break from Facebook & Insta for exactly 1 week, just to reduce temptation and to focus on schoolwork. You guys can hold me to that. urban_pilgrim
24/30 today was a good day, i just had incident when i was checking FB during my lunch, without expecting it i saw a picture (I won’t be more specific than that) there, and I got very anxious and quickly closed the website. It triggered me a lot and the image stayed in my mind for hours, I actually don’t use FB nor Instagram regularly but sometimes i do it to see how my friends in europe are doing, like once a month or something...I will stay strong and urges will pass away at the end of the day!
yeah that can be confusing. It counts by each full day without PMO- so on Day 5, you will have gone 5 days without PMO. hope that helps a little, and good luck on the journey.
Day 5. Hell yeah! I'm starting to get my confidence back. And I also had a really vivid dream last night which is a great sign. Onto the next...
Day 22 done Had trouble fantasising this morning. Also why does every film and tv show have sex in it. So many triggers. I watched a film that was rated ‘12’ and the whole thing had sex in it.
