Quoting from my post in the No Screen Challenge: "This past week has been a little rough, with a major deadline this morning and an urgent family issue that took up about 2.5 work days. The stress definitely reduced my self-regulation. I had to work after 18:00 each night and I gave up and listened to YouTube videos while I worked. I watched a couple extra videos for entertainment after finishing work last night and other nights too. Worst of all, I watched porn several times recently--without checking my porn challenge thread, I'd guess three times in four days. "Today, my plan is to try to relax and recuperate. I'll meditate, prep some healthy food, spend time with my daughter, and plan my week a bit. I hope that that will bring back some of my self-regulation. Also, I expect that not having to work late will take away one thing that was really making this challenge tough. "What I'd like to do is take stock of some of the things that went wrong this past week and write up some implementation intentions (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implementation_intention) to help me pursue my goals."
1/30 Implementation intention: if I find myself intensely craving porn, and feel at risk of succumbing, then I will masturbate without porn.
Hello I am new to this forum and i want to start with no P lite mode... so i am in! Day 1/30 lets gooooo!!!!!!
Welcome! Sorry I've been absent lately. I've had some family obligations that have changed my internet access a bit. But now I'm back in and am ready to meet this challenge!
16/30 I haven't been posting in these forums much lately. My dad was visiting me from out of town and it really reduced my computer time. But I'm back at it now!
Just wanted to pop in and give some love and respect to those of us doing "no porn" only. I'm in the midst of a personal 90 day no-porn commitment, so I hereby declare my Day Zero on this challenge. Let's show our solidarity on this effort.
Day 1/30. Had a good, clean day yesterday. A "No Porn" commitment is the foundation for getting better at living.
Day 1/30 yesterday was the day I decided to stop lusting and looking at porn and everything else. I'm glad I found this site. Today I will not lust.
