30 Days, worth it!

Hello guys, I am a Swedish 18 year old dude who enjoys fantasy books, metal and astronomy. Interests which helped reaching this point.

To start off positively let's go through the benefits first:
-Feeling alive
Emotions are stronger, I am feeling a stronger connection to women and it feels amazing talking to them. And when something feels wrong it truly feels wrong, for example when I was supposed to do military service I knew it was wrong. Earlier in addictive times I had felt nothingness for military service and I might as well have joined the army. Though I do think God might have been behind the bad feeling.

-A clear mind
If you have been living in addiction for a long time it might be hard to understand what it really is to have a clear mind, when dryly put in words. It is fantastic. I feel more present, more concentrated, therefore performing better in school.

-More motivated
I used to be lazy, a trait that is mostly gone.

-Clear eyes

-More energetic skin

-More happy
I look forward to things more, life just feels better.

-And of course, confidence
When living in addiction for years it is easy to be unknowing of how it feels being confident, and it feels great. Confidence is really nice, though I still could use some more.

These 30 days have probably been the best in my life. Think about that, just quit porn and the best days of your life will most likely be ahead of you.

How did I do it?
-Working out everyday
This helps with building discipline, which is necessary for overcoming an addiction.
-Getting shit done
This greatly helps with discipline, and you feel relived when there is not so much work to be done.
-Exposing myself to uncomfortable situations
For example cold showers, talking to people I wouldn't normaly talk to, performing guitar solos, doing karaoke sober even though I can scarcely sing. This builds confidence and of course, discipline.
-At least trying to meditate
I have been having a hard time developling this habit, though I notice it is easy to resist urges when meditation has been done in the morning. So it is clearly a powerful habit to have.

For me I think, tip one and three worked the best. Now good luck reaching 30 days, it is hard to describe in words how amazing it feels, so try to imagine how happy you have the potential to be. I used to imagine myself in a boat, sailing the seas feeling the wind in my hair while smiling to the woman I love whenever I had an urge. This made the sailing scenario seem more preferable than porn, and the urge was easier to overcome.

Cheers guys, I wish you the best!
