Day 36 - P images crossing my mind today. Need to refocus. My attention span problem is bad right now blinking every two minutes and addict brain is winning the battle. Thoughts fixating on objectified body parts that I just want to look at on screen. I should be working but maybe I'll just go out for a walk. Change the setting. Stay strong.
500 days!!! @persona2903 - Super inspiring Thank you for keeping this group going and sharing your abundance and freedom
20 days left to the 1 year! Reading gandhi's autobiography on brahmacharya it is inspiring. Took him 6 yrs before being able to make the life voe of brahmacharya he also talks about the diet as the #1 key to transmutation. I'm inspired now to do a 30 day long fast/modified diet. Planning to do a 10 day master cleanse, and follow it w/ a 20 day of fruits and nuts only fast
I’m at 19 days. Been really avoiding situations where I could be alone at computer and tempted, telling my mind that PMO is not an option and I don’t need to act on my body’s urges, and listening to my emotions and caring for them. I’m excited to get 21 days on Monday. First time I’ve had than in months. Probably since start of COVID.
Day 44 - the longest I've been without PMO probably in my entire adult life. There are days now when it is fairly easy - the mental images and physical urges don't appear. On those days, even the triggers are becoming less intense. BUT some days are damn hard, and I have to really stay focused on my goal. And remind myself of how f'ed up my life was before nofap. Since I started four months ago, I have about 105 days of no PMO. Given that I was 2x daily plus binges this is real improvement. We can all do this - make improvement. Stay strong brothers.
20th - 21st - 22nd of October kept relapsing I am so weak infront of temptations, i need to take a real sincere decision from inside of me to be completely free of this addiction. New streak started on the 23rd of October Today i'm Day 6 ✅
I’ve been doing great. Longest streak in months. Continuing to fight my mind and let it know that porn is not an option and just try to stay away from computer when I’m feeling physical cravings.
Hi everyone! The ranking is already updated in post 1. Let's focus on what's important and have a blessed day!
Well done! To keep resisting one day at a time, and focus on all the motivating things we can do instead of turning to PM!
Checking in today. On Day 2 after relapsing earlier in the week. I feel like I have to monitor my time on forums now because some guys are just graphic as they describe what’s going on. That and peeking on IG seems to be main triggers I gotta watch. I still feel good about my progress but know I can’t let up.
Day 45 - I read a post somewhere here about "taking a peek" and how it didn't have the same effect as it used to. I've been feeling pretty strong lately so as an experiment I had a look at a P site. Whatever grasp these images used to have on my brain, at least today in this moment, is substantially gone. It was almost like I was looking at a blank screen. The imagery was of no interest to me. I clicked on a couple of pics and nothing, no response from me in any way. I closed the site and went about my day. Now, I have to be very vigilant that this peek didn't crack open a door to acting out that I'll come back to at some point in the near future. But I followed up this experiment with my daily affirmation reading to reinforce my good habits and I guess the "re-wiring" of my brain that might be happening. Something positive is happening because I would have not responded (eg. no response) in this way to these images four months ago before I started nofap. In a way this experiment was a very positively reinforcing action - there was absolutely no attraction to viewing P, so I don't feel any need to go back. I ain't missing anything. So friends, success is possible. Stay on your path to improvement. Every moment, every hour, every day of staying clean creates more possibilities for you to become free of the PMO addiction and to become a better man. Be Strong All.
I am back home from short vacation with family. I’m coming down down from the drugs of good food and pleasure and I find my brain wanting more. I know this will pass and in a few days I will have 28 days clean. That will be the longest streak I have had all year. I want to never use PM again and turn my life around.
Great awareness of self and your present condition. Stay strong to reach your 28 day goal. I'm on the longest streak of my adult life and it is a good feeling. Our lives CAN turn around and we CAN leave behind the PMO addiction.
the changes in my life in the past year is like night and day - I can not think of a more powerful transformation than the one i am experiencing. Its like i am becoming the person i always wanted to be - so thankful on how simple a group of people come together with 1 purpose and want nothing from each other except to help each other evolve can do.
