Hi, I just registered because I wanted to quit totally from M till O while watching P. I have neveer been able to do it by myself because I always relapsed in the end. I have 19 years and it's been 5 yrs since it all started. Recently I was on holiday and I managed to achieve abstinence for 7 days and it felt awesome. Yesterday however I resetted. I hope I will manage to reboot in the end
Hey rebornone97. I'm in the same boat, I feel like I can never seem to do this solo and I've finally found this sight where we can talk about this stuff without embarrassment. My last instance of PMO was yesterday. Lets reach a goal together!
Hey, You are on right track get ready to enjoy a lot of benefits by becoming PMO free. But let me tell you the truth the journey to becoming PMO free is full of difficulties, you have learn from people who abstain for longer time, you have practice what you learn, you will face strong urges but you have deal with them etc. So take your sword and start fighting until you win.
I thought at the beginning that I would be able to do it by myself, but it's basically impossible. But with such a big and supportive community I think both of us will reach our goal.
Even though is going to be difficult I still want to do it to retake control of my life. We'll get through this together
This is the second day of my goal of 30 days, still have that itching feeling of looking at porn. I look at LOL pics a lot and some of the pictures can be pretty hot. How are your urges coming along? Can they be gradual if you suppress them or are they pretty strong right off the bat?
Try your best at hanging in there. For me the days right after a reset are the hardest ones because it's easier to be tempted into relapsing and screwing everything up. I have contained my urges by using the panic feature of nofap. You should try it out by yorself. I think that setting the browser in a way that blocks the access to certain pages can also be useful. Last but not least spend time on a hobby of yours to lighten your mind
Spot on tips man, I occasionally love to draw, I should just throw myself into that. I also like to walk but I'm afraid I might get racing thought with attractive ladies on my mind. Do you ever get the feeling that you put too much thought into something, doesn't have to be PM, then you constantly question why you're minds stuck on the same thoughts? Gotta say this is my favorite forum so far, we're being honest and positive!
well, You could also try out mindfullness via meditation, in order to become able to focus on the present and on what surrounds you. Try practicing daily by sitting down, closing your eyes and saying in your mind breath in and out as you focus only on your breath. And if some negative thoughts occur on you in any occasion you could use this technique to bring your mind back to the present moment. There are also other positive effects. I love this forum too, it's such a wonderful enviroment
