That's true. This is the most important and difficult part of quitting addiction. You can't be always in control of your emotions. Awareness in how to deal with these emotions is key.
Keeping a little black journal at suggestion of Gf to record thoughts. It has been helpful. Continuing to progress. I'm thankful.
Happy to finally start my job next week. My relationship with my GF has been hard and trying to keep grades up. Happiness is no. 1.
So happy to finally get a job after a long search. Not going to take this opportunity for granted. Nofap is a life saver!
Hard times worldwide. Congrats on getting work. I was unemployed for a long time also, now I'm in a job again and it's a nice change.
Thanks everyone. Removing porn leaves a lot of time to get things done. Been looking for work for a while and just glad to have some progress on the journey.
Read the Bhagavad Geeta, a hindu legend about the inner struggles of the warrior Arjuna. His struggles inspire me to face my own struggles.
om mani padme hum! always great to come across others who have explored the Gita! hope you are well my friend!
Time to get my life back on track. My problem is now within my awareness. I'm only one guy with a problem thousands if not millions have.
Maybe I should refrain from giving advice until a substantial amount of time has passed since I quit PMO or subs. Last relapse in May.
Don't know what to do with my life right now. Quitting porn and looking for a job. Life is difficult. I guess I will just join the club.
Watching the "Joy of Painting" with Bob Ross with my girlfriend. She is learning how to paint and I am feeling happy for her. Thank you Bob.
A couple of days ago, had a couple of almost wet dreams. For the first time in a while, I had urges. Thankfully, I just toughed them out.
Did a good job at not looking at girls with the intention of objectifying them. Just carried on with my day like normal. Feels great.
Reading Noah Church's book " Wack" and it's so inspiring! A porn addict who recovered and decides to write and help others. Great resource.
I am living a structured life thanks to my gf. Another day that I'm thankful I am not a porn user or objectify women.
I think a major factor in my reboot is removing myself from environments that are associated with porn use. Like my house for example.
Yes, and it also helps to rearrange the furniture in your bedroom or wherever you have usually used porn and fapped.
No, it's perfectly normal. Many people on here report doing the same thing, and I've known tons who do it, and I used to do it. It's still another use of P, though, I'm afraid...
