Rebooting is the hardest

Discussion in 'Rebooting - Porn Addiction Recovery' started by Deleted Account, Sep 8, 2017.

  1. For me I have to reboot my mind. I literally don't tell myself today I'm going to watch porn or be involved in cyber sex. I just want to reboot my mind so I don't ever do this again, or think about it .

    How long does it take your mind to get away from the urges? When does the reboot process start .

    PMO = porn masturbation orgasm
     
  5. Took me 60 days til I really didn't want P and definitely not M. And be careful with social media and tv a lot of triggers there. That's why i don't have cable or use instagram
     
  6. Best to be ready for what's ahead. As Marino said, it's gonna be terrible, depending on the way you 'used' this addiction.

    As in, if you tried to make yourself feel better by pmo'ing, you gotta find a way to deal with the emotions that you were putting away.

    Good luck!

    Your first reboot to me is a purge. Very few people get to 90 days. The first couple days are usually ok but then the withdrawal kicks in. Physically it can headaches, body aches, the shakes, the shits, dead dick (no erection) etc. Mentally it can be be feeling depressed, anxious, angry, sad, a true roller coaster. Whatever emotions and feelings you suppressed by PMO suddenly hit you in the face. Day 4 to 14-17 are the worst but every reboot is unique. You are rewiring your brain and your dick. Normally you start to see real results about 30 days into a reboot.

    Most guys seems to suffer from P withdrawal the hardest. I'm the opposite. The MO is way more difficult.
