I am married with 1 child and I am rebooting

Discussion in 'Rebooting in a Relationship' started by Deleted Account, May 23, 2019.

  1. Today is my 7/90 days. Probably the hardest one up to now. I have a big temptations to relapse, but I will continue to fight :)

  2. Hang in there! You are doing very well. If you have a team of APs you are working with, there is great support in a community for when things get very tough. You cannot recover alone, but many things become possible in community. I am wishing you the best in your struggle. Keep showing up!
     
  3. Thanks a lot. Those are the messages that I really need in this moment :)

  4. Keep it up! It gets easier from here. Each time you say NO you become stronger, wiser, and more of who you were meant to be as a person, husband, and father.

    My boyfriend is 10 months in recovery and he describes it as having his third eye opened!
     
  5. Thanks for the encourangment :) It goes better now.

    10 months of complete chastity ? Or 10 months without masturbation ?
     
  6. 10 months of no porn or porn subs.
    There were a few instances of masturbation (phone sex with me while I was traveling, masturbation to photos of me). I would say the last time he masturbated was in July. So about 10 months of that.

    We’ve had sex since the start of the reboot.
     
  7. Day 8: this morning I fell calm and with more energy compared to previous days. I am also not so horny and this is probably the first time that it happens :)

    This morning I also removed two old Twitter and Instagram accounts, that I used in the past to have erotic conversations about foot fetish. Unfortunately I had also experience with this kind of addiction. I hope that this time I am on the right way to recover completely. My wife and my child are a strong motivation for me and I want to live my life as best as I can.
    I am very determined :cool:

  8. Is it phone sex with the partner or masturbating on the partner's photo considered anyway a relaps during the rebooting time ? Should I avoid this kind of activity in my 90 days ?

    Since you are aiming at 90 days hard mode you will want to avoid anything that might tempt you. Hard mode means no orgasms, so phone sex and masturbation during your 90 days are not allowed. After then you could relax the rules and move to an easier mode.

  10. To be honest, I am aiming at 90 days of no PM. If I will be able to realize 90 of no PMO it would be fantastic, but I am not sure to be able not having sex with my wife for 90 days :)
     
  11. Depends on what you are aiming for. My partner wanted to rid himself of his P habit, realign his mindsets towards women (not objectifying, not always craving “extremes”), and get closer to me and become more sexual. He suffered from delayed ejaculation and that affected our sex life greatly.

    We didn’t know about the 90 monk mode reboot at the time and kinda did things our own way. Now, he has his SAA group and I have NoFap. We also listen to podcasts and do a lot of reading about this topic. And talk about it: both in relation to us, but in a broader way of how the world is as well.

    I was also away for the entire summer right when he was starting this and I’m very sexual so keeping/growing our sexual connection was important to both of us.

    Since I returned home, he has expressed that he doesn’t want to masturbate because it doesn’t feel as good. One time, I asked him to do it in front of me as part of foreplay and he started and stopped himself because he was uncomfortable.

    He still looks at my pictures/watches our videos from time to time, though. We talk about when he does and why to ensure he’s not sliding into old habits.

    I can say our sex life and, though it’s been painful, our relationship is much better. He is healthier and I am getting more of what I always wanted and deserved.

    Talk to your partner, connect with others, and set goals that are best for you.

  12. Bad night the last one :'( I was horny and I had a lot of erotic fantasies, concerning foot fetish and dominant women. It also happened to me sometimes in the past but usually these erotic fantasies disappeared after the masturbation. Now that I could not masturbate, these fantasies were much stronger and last night was almost sleepless. The only positive thing is that I did not relapse :) ... but my mind is still not under my control

  13. I have spent a few sleepless nights early on in recovery, too. You have done very well to not relapse! Keep going on like that and you will soon be free.

    I use the FREEdom process outlined in the link below for mental discipline. Even though it is a process based on the Christian Scriptures, I think you will find it effective no matter what your faith practices are. I hope it might be of some small help to you. Our battle is truly in the mind. We must fight and win it there first!

  14. I relapsed this morning :( It was just impossible to resist, after one entire night without sleeping. I also had pain close to the perineum this morning (probably due to the chastity ?) and the orgasm was also with pain. Did someone else have this problem ?
     
  15. Relapse with P or just MO? If no P, continue to stick to that, and you will not lose all forward progress.

    I've never experienced pain in that area or during O. Others may have different experiences. You may want to check with a doctor if it persists. NoFap should not result in pain, afaik.

    I had a wet dream and it was uncomfortable/painful but it was after about 3 periods of 30 days without O. This happened twice, there where unpleasant dreams to go along with the wet dreams also.

    I also have pain in that area and never knew what it was called until I read a post. It gets really painful in the mornings the last couple days and I have my gf massage the area down there and it seems to help.

    That pain happened to me when I was doing hard mode or if I go a couple weeks without an orgasm. It is normal. Try running your balls under cold water. That saved me when I was on hard mode.
