100%. This forum is the hard mode I thought. Like you, I think imperAtive to get with a real life partner, we are trying to rep Oh i see it the same way. We're all here trying to rewire our brains to REAL People and real sexual intimates moments, rather than porn on a computer. I just thought this was a challenge to do hard mode for 14 days. I responded to your post because I was kicking myself for not getting action ( because this is a hard mode challange) when I could have. It's all good. I told myself I'd do hard mode 2 week challenge and then go to just no PM (CAUse I WANt That BOoTY)! So that's what I'm going to do Unfortunately 6 days in I relapsed and binged for a day. Kicking my self cause now I have to start over and wait that much longer. For the past 6 years trying to quit porn I've been getting laid/getting off with chicks nearly on a weekly basis. The chaser effect gets me... that's why I'm trying this hard mode out to push past the 2 weeks, maybe my will power will be polished by then
3/14 I don't know if it's ironic, but the only time I think of even the concepts of PMO is when I remember to report on this thread hahaha Still, no serious urges in sight. I haven't felt this good in ages. Calm, clear, precise. Why would I trade something like this just for a minute's worth of fake relaxation?
Day 2/14 complete! Loving the community vibe and I truly feel great. Today was my first real challenge too! I was home alone all day. Had little to no urges or thoughts about it though, so maybe if another day like this happens and I get real urges I can turn here. Day 3! I'm coming for you! Namaste!
Day 8! This is usually about the time I've relapsed before. This time is especially tough, because my wife is out of town for 4 days! I made it today praying I can make it the rest! I have so Many thoughts running through my head.
That's 14 for me, @2525! Can't say I'm feeling like a totally new person yet. These last few days have been eye-opening of how much farther I need to go. I feel like I'm still the same person with the same tendencies.. guess it's time for the 21 day challenge!
I've been trying to do that, but, admittedly, I could do much better. Letting myself look hinders the progress I want and need to make
Day 11. some problem with my mind, keep thinking abt the -ves and become anxious. But I know I will get over it. I am not short changing myself anymore for this 14 days challenge!! THink +ve then everything will be easy!
