    Hello all.
    After a bad experience I decided to stop masturbation & porn 21 days ago cold turkey. The first week I was doing great with no cravings. So I decided arbitrary to go for 1 month (first time ever). After week 2 there where some cravings but in week 3 started to look daily at the calender to hit the magic '30 days' mark.
    The last couple days everytime I go to sleep I'm constantly fantasising of porn and having a very difficult time not to masturbate.
    I'm afraid that I'm just gonna hit the 30 day streak and slip right back into my old habits. Also counting of the days is probably not very supportive for a reboot.

    Agreed. Dwelling on the days is not always the best thing to do. I've found visiting NOFAP and reading others stories/journaling helps me. The counter is a good thing and it helps to track your progress, but it's not good to "count down".
     
  3. I wrote about this many times here I will link post I just made below.

    You are connecting masturbation and porn together, and these are separate things. You are setting yourself up to fail.
