20 day challenge [join me]

Wassup! Just joined , glad to be in a community where we’re all going for the same goal !! Struggled for years and I’m tired of it ! I’m joining in ! I’m on day 2. Will check in everyday and respond to whoever whenever . Let’s get it

 

Lets do this !
Day 0

 

Day 5 now and going well. Such a difference doing this as part of the Nofap community instead of alone.


I just saw the quote in your avatar @pak_assassin. There aren't many that are more appropriate to our situation. Nice choice.

 

In. Let me start my rebooting with 20 days.

 

I find it helpful to surround myself with people more often , like friends and family to keep your mind off of urges if any one is going through it ! Stay focused on the battle !

 

Day 5:
No relapses or any kind of urge. But, there is a feeling of emptiness. At times I feel like I am not interested in anything around me. Hope it will be alright in few days.
Things I have been doing since morning:
* Keeping myself occupied through work.
* Never allowed my mind to be free.
* Started learning a new language (Hindi)

 

Please try to do some mindfulness exercise. Meditation. Try to focus on the things you are doing right now. I am trying to practice it for some time . It helps.

 

Sure bro. Starting from today. Mindfulness is the goal

 

Way to go brother. All the best. We all are in this together.

 

Day 6:
The monster has started to peep in. Have been struggling to kick out the thought of PMO since morning. For the past four days it was calm as an ocean, but the Tsunami has stuck today. The thought of relapsing has been constantly poking my mind. Fighting really hard to keep it at bay. When ever I feel like I want to go back to the PMO, I start diverting my mind (Either I chat with people around me or to the place where I can't be alone). So far a hard fought and successful day.
Things I did today:
* Continued the practice of meditation
* Tried few Kegal exercises
* Kept busy throughout the day

 

The road to moving from active addiction to successful recovering is tough. Especially when your work and comfort revolves around triggers. If sobriety were easy, everybody who wanted to be sober would be. I am keeping up the positivity, and installing confidence in myself to get back on track. I hope you all feel the same, and will do the same.

Welcome to day 1-ners, and Congrats 2nds, 3rd, 5th and 7th Fapstronauts.

 

aniseprakash, you are quickly shaping up to be my role model. Keep up the struggle.

 

The Mighty Grim, your words installing confidence in me . Thank you for appreciating. It takes a huge heart to do so.
You will succeed as well, just have confidence on your willpower. Keep a journal and meet new people. The best is yet to come for you and for everyone.

 

Few things I do differently these days

1. If I am alone in home. I will get out. Go for a run or walk or go to a shop.
2. I try to sit in my home office with the doors open. Let people come in. Who cares now
3. I am married and I go to sleep earlier or at the same time as my wife. No more late night porn surfing.
4. I plan ahead for the evening time. Like read a book or take my son out to the park or watch ted talks. This helps me keep busy in the evening rather than surf porn.
5. No more phones to the bathroom.

Hope this pointers help my fellow friends as well.

 

I failed you brother.

 

Start again buddy. Regroup and go for it again.
