Day 19/90 I must confess iv been doing a lot of flirting, tho nothing has transformed into urge to pm. I pray that I never get those urges, like ever again.
omg, these urges are really difficult, and they test my commitment and motivation.. i was thinking about why i started this challenge.. i don't have problems with porn, but only with (excessive) masturbation.. i think i started it, because i want to live a more fully life, to be more outwards toward other people, because i want to experience intimacy with nice girls that i like, and not only with myself.. i'm rather drawn into myself, not very open This NOFAP challenge forces me to come out of my ego-mind, difficult to explain it, but that is what it does with me.. but when the urges are high, my mind is questionning my motiviation and my commitment.. i'm happy with this forum with you guys, it makes it easier to focus on my goals.. (sorry for my miserable english..)..
Man thanks for the counsel, I have already taken up a three day challenge and passed it. What really pisses me off is that i can't get to my previous streak of 38 days. It's strange but it was easier than a seven day challenge.
Day 4/90 After my last relapse I got really motivated to kick PM out of my life. That motivation I was feeling also helped me start another streak, a quitting smoking streak (currently on day 4), which is paired to my no PMO streak. The problem is I'm feeling the urges of both but by now I'm really in control of myself. I hope this will keep going how I want for at least ninety days (no smoking forever)
Home alone and relapsed again... Trying not to be too angry with myself, but for fucks sake it was so not worth it! Back to day zero for me...
Guys, done with day 4/90! Thankfully, no urges. I’m trying to exercise a lot-not a scientist but hopefully this would help replace the dopamine I’m losing out on. I’m also charging my phone and tablet outside of the bedroom. One day at a time!
Finished the 36th night. Slept almost 9 hours. Where before, sleep was elusive, I actually feel tired and fall asleep quickly when I go to bed.
Same back at day 0! For me it’s All about making a safer environment. I’m not having my phone in my room anymore when I go to bed. Good luck man! Let’s get a new streak going
Once again at day 0 but making steps and I can see progress being made I’m noticing different things and learning how to say no. My phone was in my room and it was too easy to relapse. Making physical barriers a priority now. I know it’s not the sole solution but it will be helpful
Day 3 and 4 /90 completed I couldn’t post because I was out of town but I feel better than ever! Keep going guys!
Sorry to hear about your relapse bro, just pick yourself up and try again. Don't let that bring you down, you can do this, I can do this we can all do this..
