35 and Older Accountability Group

Checing in one week! Not an easy one though. I'll try to keep strong.

 

check in thursday

 

thanks for the help and sorry for the troubles !

 

Day 15. Been a reasonable week, thought life has been a struggle though.

 

check in friday

 

checking in. Restarting counter. I will beat this. I trust the Lord I will that's for sure. It was a hard week to start with and been able to make it until there thanks to God's mercy.
This last streak I've learnt how powerful stress and pressure are. Not easy. New start I'm not projecting the next streak on days as a challenge but I'll put my focus on today. If I make it no PM through the day. Glory to God for this day. (Psalm 118.24)

 

Hey Guys!

I have read the rules. Im 35 and would love to join. goal is one year. Just going for it!!! No PMO

 

Haven't checked in a in a while. Plummeting with PMO. Not good at all. Definitely need suggestions for sometihng else to help me out with this challenge. Just signing in to this group isn't helping me enough. Maybe someone replied already. Will search through. Also could use a suggestion for a new blocker. k9 bluecoat isn't working any longer.

 

Was also listening to a biblical lecture today. Was saying that sexual trangressions are the worst of all. PMO isn't murder, so not sure why the lecturer said that but making me think how important this is. would be great to get any suggestions regarding what else I can do to break this habit. I need some other sort of accountability. Right now no one knows or cares if I PMO all day since I live alone. If I stay over someone's house it's funny how i don't think about PMO much. Being at home alone so much i find myself using PMO for hours at a time now when I should be doing other things.

 

Checking in today. Wife and I had a small argument and she questioned my efforts recovery. I had slacked off and I appreciate her being willing to tell me. I had my first in-person 12 step meeting last weekend. Will attend again this weekend and look for a sponsor.

 

Freebird, we can’t make your decision for you, we can’t tell you what will work for you. There are a lot of resources on this site, lots of ideas, techniques and methods that work for different people. My number one suggestion for you is, spend some time here, look around and learn.

If you don’t meditate, try it.
If you don’t do cold showers, try it.
If you don’t get up and move away when you’re about to PMO, try it.

There is a wealth of information, but for it to be effective, you have to try it, you have to want it, you have to OWN the path you are going down.

 

Checking in Day 32. Still working away without too many issues at the moment. Someone posted on one of the groups i’m part of, that the first 7 days are the toughest. I tend to agree, you go through phases, and that first 7 days are tough. But not the last challenge!
Keep on educating yourselves!

 

Day 16. "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." Galatians 6:9

 

Check in saturday

 

Thanks so much. What about accountability partners? Is there somewhere else to sign up for that?
