35 and older accountability, Group 2

You are still here though brother, this says something about your deep desire for restoring to your normal power and freedom, coming here, tired regardless you showed up which is the miracle. Time to rise again brother with all enthusiasm and a little wiser than before, this time could be the last time.

 

wow congrats brother! Leaving the past behind, dying to every temptation, this is the new norm.

 

One day at a time brother. You are doing great.

Hi Guys, checking in ...I have some how manged to come this far without PM ....
Ones again thanks to forums like this.

 

Hi, just checking in. No PMO since my last check in. Not sure where my streak is, somewhere between 14-30 days, I think. I’m taking some time today to reevaluate and realign my goals and progress. I’ll be revisiting my No PMO stats then.

I’ll say this: this is by far one of my best streaks ever. If I count my previous two 30 day streaks, I’ve gone like 90 of the last 93 days p0rn free. That’s a big deal.

This past holiday (US Thanksgiving) was exhausting for me, so instead of pushing myself head first back into the rat race (like I would’ve done in the past), I’m prioritizing rest and emotional regulation for the next few days. I’ll still be working, etc, but my main goal is giving myself time to properly rest and reset.

Cheers to you all. Hope things are looking up.

 

Thanks brother... I really need the encouragement right now. I'm trying to sort it all out as this was by far the worst multi day kind of binge in almost 2 years or more. I did have a lot going on and a lot of changes at the time. I also have no woman in my life. I'm thinking about a journal post where I will go into more detail but my conclusion so far is that I brought many new changes and stresses into my life that disrupted my baseline dopamine from healthy sources and eventually my system found again the large source of dopamine which is the unlimited online P and PMO and I've given into it. I have been so easily triggered for almost 2 weeks now. I didn't expect this to happen and before this I had one of the best months in a while. I wish I would have fought the urges more earlier on because for the last 2 years almost, I haven't been so easily triggered.

Yes you are right I need to rise again wiser than before.

Thanks again brother.

 

Yes this is a path of self-love and self-forgiveness for me just as much as discipline and patience. I like Emerson quote on temptations that we gain the power of every temptation we overcome. I learned the best way to overcome these temptations is not fight them but to rise above them. Its like instead of trying to get rid of them I learned to USE THEM to remind em of my practice.

Example... A beautiful girl shows up, my mind is triggered to lust. I use it as a reminder to go to my PRACTICE which for me is a devotional reminder of Trust, principal and few moments of silence without thoughts. Known as contemplative meditation.

 

I just saw this video was helpful to me as I am experiencing some inertia about my new project as its a huge.

He made it sound very simple and he has a really good book called Gene keys

 

Checking in...Happy w/ my current streak, but sad that I cheated my wife. What is the gain of PM-free if I can´t keep my vows? Sorry guys.

 

Does anyone know of any support groups/communities for fitness/weight loss, that sort of thing? I might be looking for an AP for that?

 

Neither the porn addict or cheating partner is you brother this is a temporary situation your in as you repent and seek light you are forgiven instantly and this law has no power over you. Keeping you in prayer and trusting your peaceful healthy self revealing it self.

 

I have a weekly community supportive call there are some other guys doing a 21 day challenge to exercise daily, you may benefit from, (details in my signiture) if you want more professional help you can look into the app classpass I have used successfully inthe past.

 

just checking in here guys.. im still doing my best

 

Thank you bro! This will be my mindset. I believe that.

 

Grateful to hear this brother, your willingness to forgive yourself and believe in that is the Grace that is upon you. One day at a time brother, One of my teachers would wake up in the morning and look up to the sky and say..."God.. please help me not fuck it up today" and that was his prayer.... I find that is my case too, just one day at a time, turn to Light at any point of temptation, and keep the forgiveness frequency going towards all, including and especially ourselves.

 

Hi guys, doing alright....stopped counting days...now come to a point where I have the energy and the room to focus on other areas of my life. I feel its a first right step

 

hey guys checking in currently doing the December challenge! We can do this!

 

No, thank you. This isn’t really what I’m looking for. I’m looking for something a little more frequent than a weekly call, and a little easier, too.

Does anyone know of any weight loss/fitness communities/support groups online? Similar to NoFap, but for fitness? I might be looking for an AP for a health/physical fitness journey.

 

We have a bodybuilding group here on the forum. The link is here,

https://forum.nofap.com/index.php?groups/bodybuilding-fapstronauts.43/forums

I am one of the group leaders. I've fell off the wagon with my training but I am about to start back. It would be nice if a group of us would get this group going again. No one has posted there for a few months. It is open for anyone to join and we discuss fitness goals of all kinds. If you start working out, I'll start too
