Made it to 90 days it only took me 2 years to

Discussion in 'Success Stories' started by Deleted Account, Apr 22, 2018.

  1. Well after starting this journey around June of 2016 when I made it to 42 days then relapsed a bunch of times till toward the end of January i started this streak now I have hit the 90 day mark . I will keep this short and real hear are some of my notes on the 90 day journey
    - Urges have a time limit they will not last forever even though it feels like it some days
    - Its a daily discipline you have work at it every day ,
    - You cant get down on yourself and talk negative to yourself I used to be the king of being negative
    - Some days were easy , them some are highly memorable like on day 45 when I was pushed to the absolute edge of relapseing for some reason the urge to pmo was ALMOST more than I could handle , that's were I found urges were time limited was put the test it was the hardest urges I have every had but it let up but wow was that close
    - Around day 86-threw day 88 it was tough again urges to act out came and left threwout the day but seeing I was so close to the 90 days I pushed threw
    - As far as the future who knows I would like to begin a more healthy masturbation without porn but I know little things can lead right back to were I used to be at well that's my story
    any questions I will try to answer them as best I can

    what changed in your personality ?
     
  4. Well I just stated the truth it did take about 2 years of trying and relapsing before sticking with it for the full 90 , the list of benefits is
    1. A more clearer mind before I was very foggy and forgetful now I can remember converstations and important dates and times with ease
    2. Don't feel I have to stare and want every women I see every day
    3. more determination before I half assed things now I push threw whatever life throws at me
    4. sleep better not waking up a bunch or having a hard time getting to sleep
    5. less self critical I don't beat myself up over things
    . As far as women wanting me more or having more hair on my head that didn't happen I can take rejection a lot eaiser when I did ask out one the other day it was no big deal when she said no
     
  5. Well from the previous relapses I learned that being self critical was holding me back I have become more determined I began to believe in myself more when things got dark I said yes I can do this which was a big turning point. I started this streak thinking I will just get in 2 weeks and see how I feel at the end of those 2 weeks I felt good enough to go for the full 90 days straight. Determination and beleving in myself where what changed in my personalty

    What techniques did you do to achieve your goals?

    Meditation? Exercise? Healthy eating?
     
  7. I did use meditation at the start of my streak for about 15 minutes a day I would try again but its pretty boring but is good at de stressing as of writing this I am thinking about doing it again in the morning which was a problem time for me to relapse with my laptop next to my bed which I moved just getting out of bed and focusing on my breathing helps it takes some time to get used to
    I have always exercise at least 4 times a week weightlifting and cardio jogging exercise bike before and during my streak
    I try to take healthy vitamins I am not the most healthy eater mostly a multi vitamin
    - one of the big things that helped me was taking notes during the whole time writing down how I feel and why am I doing this and what helped with urges and what did not, finding out the urges were time limited and I didn't have to act on them thinking they would last forever help me push those big numbers

    I think usually when guys claim women are more attracted to them, they are really saying women are more attracted to their (new-found) confidence. Everybody is more attracted towards someone who respects themselves, man or woman.
