    Hey guys! I really can't seem to make it past 3 weeks without edging or relapsing. Getting there seems pretty easy too. I keep thinking "I just don't want it bad enough" and "if you really wanted to quit, you wouldn't even be on this site.". Honestly, I don't know what to think. I know this part of my life needs to change and I'll keep trying. My reactions whenever I'm triggered are what really piss me off. My logical brain just shuts down and the crazy monkey takes over. Here's the worst part. After I relapse, I can easily asses what went wrong and how I could have prevented it. AFTER RELAPSING! Should I drill this stuff into my head every day? What to do, what to avoid, what to say in the moment that sort of thing. I'm really tired of loosing at this game. I really haven't experienced the awesome benefits that everyone talks about yet and it's making it really hard to stay motivated.

    If I tell you don't think about sheep, what happens?
    You think about sheep.
    If I tell you don't think about blue cows, what happens?
    You think about blue cows.
    If you tell yourself 'no relapsing' or 'get to 3 weeks', what happens?
    ...
    The best way is to find ways to occupy yourself and use your time so that this stuff is not even on your mind.
