How it feels to reach 30 days

Edging is key my friend... as soon as you start edging then relapse is almost inevitable.
Try to use the tools on here when the need to edge kicks in

have to stay busy....I just finish relapse and it feels horrible that I broke a 4 day streak ....but this time I'm going all the way and joined the 365 day challenge .

 

Your mileage may vary there. What do you think happens when you reach 30 days? I think the results you will get at 30 days depend on how long you've been an addict. For example, I was an active porn user for about a decade. 30 days is a drop in the bucket compared to ten years.

30 days is a fine goal to set your sights to. If you can make it there, if nothing else, it will show that you can make commitments to yourself and realize them. It will boost your confidence in yourself.

Here's my advice for actually reaching 30 days: don't think about it too much. I know that sounds counter-intuitive, but just don't focus too much on the daily counter. It will end up holding you back. You can't make the counter go any faster by focusing on it. It's going to go up one day at a time. So just do that. Focus on staying clean one day at a time. The only battle you have to fight is the one that happens today.

Hope that helps
