    That's it. I am done with it. It is destroying me.

    Ground zero is 6 January 2024 at 2100 hours (UK).

    90 days will be 5 April 2024 at 2100.

    Wish me luck and pray for me.

    Hey man, try asking yourself how important is this for you and why you are doing it. I've found for myself that if I don't know the reason I'm doing something and I have no hope for the future I usually make up my mind to relapse in the present with my addictions not only fapping.

    Good point. It is really important to me but I think I have just got into a rut. My habit is as bad as it has been in many years.

    I feel somewhat more settled today and am hopeful that there is a platform to build on to work towards 90 days, as my initial goal. At the moment a week would be a major step forward...

    I would like to know a platform to work towards 90 days too.

    Try to make yourself busy as possible for the next week. Once you have a streak of 5 or so days on nofap it can make it easier because you don't want to go back to day zero. Just remind yourself why you are doing this. Don't think of it as though you are giving something up, but rather make it part of your identity and BELIEVE IT: "I am not a man who looks at porn."

    So by the end of 14 January I will have completed day 1.

    90 days will be 13 April 2024!

    Bro you are back to ground zero like every day, are you assessing why you are failing? We need to make adjustments on our journeys in order to succeed.

    I dont know what is happening. It feels like my addiction is out of control. This is the worst it has been in many many years. I don't know how to stop. And to make matters even worse, the blocking software appears to have stopped working entirely...

    So - you guessed it - new ground zero is 17 January 2024 at 2010 hours.

    That means that 90 days will be 16 April.

    I have no idea how to dig myself out of this mess.

    Start by recognizing and recording the precursors to a lapse
    When where why who how what.

    Record also your environment as well as your emotions and inclinations

    Afterwards you can then formulate ways to stop all repetition of such occurrences

    One cannot hope to drive safely without learning how to drive safely. You need to learn about yourself first.

    Take it day by day!

    Just have a target not to relapse that day. Or maybe it can be made for 12 hours, just make an achievable target that you will not break and go from there.

    90 days is too far to look, make shorter term targets and make sure you hit them. I am at 5 days now with this method.

    A reward for yourself may be helpful upon achieving your target.

    I had a relapse today. I watched porn and masturbated for hours, so much so that my testicles hurt. I didn't get a good erection during masturbation. My erections are much more difficult even when watching porn. I go back to zero. It really depresses me. I really need to get out of this addiction, I don't want to miss out on the rest of my life.

    I fell again today myself. Ground zero is now 23 January 2024 at 1510 hours (UK time).

    This will mean 90 days is now on 22 April 2024.

    However, my current goal is just to make it to Friday!

    Last looked at porn today (1 Feb 2024) at 1340 hours.

    This means my 90 day period now runs from Groundhog day (2 Feb) to Labour Day (1 May)!

    However, given current performance I am aiming just to get through the weekend.
