Hi Talz! Sounds great with your "man group"! Is it something recovery-related? A group of old friends? I also read about your beetle encounter with interest :D To me, such things bring me joy. Even when I see a jumping spider running over my laminate floor. Have a good day!
Had to reverse engineer my bloody laptop to delete the Microsoft Store. That's the lengths I have to go.
Tbh it didn't feel too bad, I just snuggled in bed and took a lay down for a bit. The regrets do kick in tho. I knew it was inevitable given the stress and burnout so it was more of a matter of when. Edging is very dangerous, it's Pavlonian where you get teased with a treat so much that you crave it even more.
Morning wood is fine imo, you learn to control it and use the energy that comes from it for more important things throughout the day. Edging is self-inflicted psychological torture.
Relapsed. Should have been wiser, found a loophole while scrolling. I was having such a good day too. Well, I tried lads.
Trying to get rid of the loophole. Think I am just going to relax until it's time to go to bed. Get my energy back up for tomorrow, wake up at 5:30, go for a quick jog.
Day 31 without masturbation. Day 1 w/o edging. Was slipping so bad, but my friend helped me to recommit and am now close to 24hrs edge free.
To those who are currently in a Relationship: You are truly lucky! You have someone to talk to and share your feelings with. I have no one.
you are not alone bro but guess what you can share your feelings in the community in case of need of help or support.
relapsed last night after watching a very suggestive music video of a song released recently, chaser effect followed now in evening
I had two Pfefferbeißer (lit. transl. Pepperbiter, mean. pepper salami sausage) in the morning. Very spicy
We have a square sausage called laurn, has a black pepper taste and goes well on a smoked bun with some HP sauce.
Germany has a lot of different types of sausages. Most foreigners would probably think of currywurst (I hate Berlin for that) or Weißwurst (white sausage) if they are at the Octoberfest in Bavaria. We have bratwurst, smoked sausages, dried sausages, liverwurst, blood sausages and bockwurst
Went for a 30 minute run, could have gone earlier but didn't want to waken anyone up. Feeling good, very tired now.
I saw this dandy plush at a car boot sale, apparently their worth loads. Had a little wizard hat and everything. I'm gonna buy it the next time I am there. Hopefully my parents don't judge lol. Need to save for my holiday.
I know the feeling of not waking up anyone. It sucks if you want to wake up at 6am on a Sunday morning and do stuff and everyone else is stilling sleeping.
Woke up at 5:25 in the morning with nine and a bit hours of sleep. Showered, had breakfast, off for my morning walk. Life is good. :>
Taking a break for an hour or so, very tired. I think exercise is the best habit to prevent relapse. You feel tired out but rewardingly so, it feels good to unwind and cuddle in bed at the end of the day so you get the full 8 to 9 hours and still wake up early.
I find exercise can be counterproductive. Because you feel tired you tend to grab your phone or any other device and start browsing. I only recommend doing it a few hours before bed time and you shouldn’t feel completely exhausted. I am currently abstaining from exercise.
I do it early in the morning, scroll for maybe two hours then get back into doing stuff. By the time I finish my morning routine and had a rest, it's 12 and I still have 9 hours to myself. It can be a trigger for relapse if you're not careful, but usually if you're exercising, P isn't really on your mind.
Hey no worries. Recovery is a marathon, not a sprint. Just learn what you can from this and get back up.
