Hi, I'm a 22 year-old who masturbates perhaps twice a day. I've been trying to kick the habit a while now, successfully quit smoking in October so I hoping that if I can do that, then I can succeed at this! But I'm not what the best way to start the rebooting is. Should I start with a challenge of a month, or a week or a day? Thanks for any tips!
Welcome! I'm glad you're here. How long is up to you. It depends on what you think will be the most positive effect on you. Some people are more motivated and energized by a long-distance run, others by adding success to success -- i.e., one short-term goal after another. For me, when I started, anything more than 30 days was too intimidating. I wanted to experience a series of successes. So I've been lengthening my goals each time. My next goal -- if I get past 190 days -- will probably be 270. I'm not sure. I hope you keep coming back. Let me know if I can help.
