Still going! But very difficult.

Hello,

Since my previous post, I am still carrying on being porn/fap free! I was supposed to finish on the 1st of August, and now I'm aiming for he 14th of November which will be one whole year! Not sure if I'll be able to do it but we'll see.

I have to admit it really isn't easy. The urges of just going to watch pornography and masturbating have been very strong and just get bigger and bigger. Only recently I was on the brink of doing just that, but luckily I walked away and decided to watch a TV show instead. The worry of letting myself down was able to convince me to carry on. I wanted to ask you guys how do you get round these terrible urges and what do you do to stop them from coming back?

Fingers crossed I'll be able to make it to the end!

 

Sorry for the late reply but thanks for the response. When the going gets tough I think our conscience can really come in handy. I know the urges won't go away so the only thing to do is tell yourself not to give in or think how you'll actually feel about it. Over the last week or so I've thought about all the pros and cons of ending the challenge now or until I reach my goal date. Doing this I've now got a great idea why I should carry on, and when the urges come back, I can actually tell myself why I mustn't give in.
