    Today is my third day on NoFap. I was fine until I got home and the urge to watch smut enter my mind. I haven't broken my promise, but it is so difficult. I find myself having to inhale some air so the feeling can subside. It is so painful, if it could all go away so easily. But, I know my body will go through pain as my mind rewires itself. How long does this feeling last until I make peace with it? Anybody who says porn is not a drug is full of baloney. It's addicting and painful to give up. But I'm glad I discover this website because now I know that I am not alone. There's thousands of people going through what I'm going through, and we all want to get better. That's a motivational booster for me. I finally get to unload so much burden without the fear of being judge. We are not bad people. We just have the misfortune of being victims to porn. I know I am not a bad human being. I just made a terrible, terrible choice when I decided to watch porn when I was thirteen. Never would I imagine that it will harm my life so much. But, I am going to make a complete 360 degree turn with my life, no matter how painful it will be.

    Good for you, Tremenchap! Stay strong!!!

    Remember, you are changing your brain by doing this. Your cerebral cortex is literally changing shape, morphing into something different. This is just like weight training, you are weak now, but with enough practice your muscles will grow large and you will become strong. The change is inevitable if you stick to 100% abstinence.

    Next time the urge comes on really strong, try to pretend that it is just a really heavy weight you are lifting, but the weight is NEVER too heavy! You can always lift it. You have complete control of your mind and your body, if and only if you choose to exert that control, which is sometimes extremely, extremely difficult, but never impossible.

    You can do this. I just started today, and I can do this too. I joined a Crossfit gym and I start tomorrow. I'm committed to changing not only my habit of PMOing, but also to change my entire perspective on life. I have goals I want to accomplish, and if I don't start now, I'm not going to start.

    Keep it up and stay strong, Tremenchap.
