90 days ... and now I celebrate It is really my first time in years so it is possible to everyone I often wondered how can someone reaches 90 days where I can't even stop for a whole day but here we are so thank you all for your support , encouragement and kind words it has been a real pleasure and for any one wondering if it is worth it ... CUT THE BULLSHIT it is one of the few things that can change your whole life dramatically .. life isn't a torture or a mess but we can make it very hard and suffer and porn addiction is really funking HELL and you can't know that until you get out so whatever your idiotic mind say to you believe me do every thing that you can to come clean bcz you will feel really sorry for all those years that you were a walking dead I wish you make a distance between you and your brain .. I hope you have the courage to face reality and stop escaping and I wish you all the best .
Bro, instead of pmo, why not have more sex and orgasm with ur gf ? The challenge is not to watch porn and mo.
Congrats @Reaching for the stars, big win, I'm happy for you We all can do it, abstaining from PMO is definitely worth the effort, I still have a long way ahead but, I feel it. Thank you for those motivational words. Positivity attracts more goodies The key is going through the pain rather than escaping it. Almost there, keep going @Haladavar Day 35 Still going I saw some triggers on Facebook, but not enough to take me down
Day 1 again. Relapsed yesterday due to a combination of urges and stress over huge things, anxiety and gf might be breaking up with me. Will get some clarity on the gf this weekend I think, and I've realized I can't just fix my anxiety over night. It's been getting better, and I have to remember if I get anxious about muscle tension in my face/neck, that will only make my anxiety worse.
3/90 I am taking some austere measures and I don't know if it will work. I have been waking up at 5 am and talking pure cold showers in the last 2 to 3 days as measures for self-discipline. My productivity has already begun to improve. Waking up at 5 am: Day 2 Cold Shower: Day 3
Congratulations on completing the challenge! It encourages me and gives me hope that I can also make it. Keep up the good fight!
Day 0. Relapsed again -- I seem to be able to go for like 4-5 days before I go down that slippery slope of "oh I'll just look" and end up PMO'ing. I've resolved to try and not let despair get the better of me and instead try to be confident that this is the time I'll finally kick this habit (I took heart from something I read online: that the greater number of times you try to kick an addiction, the more likely it is that you'll eventually succeed). To add on to this attempt to last 90 days, I've promised myself that if I relapse again, I'll take the step of joining an accountability group. The massive amount of shame I've felt from this habit has led to me being paranoid about keeping it private. Maybe the fear of finally having to out myself will give that extra push over the top.
Also, gonna make an effort to come back here more often (hopefully on a daily basis), to remind myself of the journey I'm on.
