    So im about a whopping 2 hours since I PMO'd last and I just wanted to share on part of what caused it. Often while im trying to abstain I always have this nagging thought that im missing out on some porn vid that I've been waiting to stumble across. I know in my heart that its not going to be there but when I look I find something that suffices ( in fact just by abstaining for a few days it doesn't take much to get me going). It really nags at me even though I know I wont find what im looking for I search anyways. Then I dont find that super dirty new scene I'd tryed to convince myself was going to be online waiting for me so I find the next best thing and get buisness done and then go on to feel like crap knowing that I screwed up and that even if I do 'reset' i will have to go the next several days being moody and depressed. If I do find the will power to get through the next couple days I know the urge will return. Im tired of this struggle I know that for certain.

    Yeah, it's really true.

    We feel so attached to it and makes it harder.

    But just try our best to stay clean.

    Stop thinking about it. I know it's easier said than done but thoughts are weakest when they are the newest. It's a lot easier to squash it right off the bat than to think, think, think and then fantasize about it. It will draw you in. Immediately start thinking about baseball and focus on that pitch then the connection with the bat and picture the bat shattering as it splinters in slow motion with the baseball just as it connects then the bat flies out to mid field ect... just create something else until it goes away.

    Thanks for the input guys. I trybto distract myself with other thoughts or activities. It just sometimes gets overwhelming. When im feeling down is when im most vulnerable. I guess its depression because I cant find the motivation to get off my ass and do something more productive with my time. Im hoping that through abstaining from PMO for long enough I can past the urge and the motivation to get something productive done will come along with it. Definitely need to squash the delusion that there is something worthwhile in a porn scene for me to see though. Porn is really nothing but a let down in the long run.
