The Moment before a Relapse

Discussion in 'Porn Addiction' started by latinboypr, Sep 13, 2017.

  1. Right this second, I experienced probably the most challenging emotion I've ever felt while being on nofap. My best friend has no idea I'm living a PMO free life, and he mentioned me something about an escort that can come to your home and give you everything you want.

    I even thought of calling her, I had a basic idea of what I was gonna do, and then I stopped, and I felt like I was in a river with fast currents, trying to drag me down a waterfall, but I just stood there, not moving any further towards it.

    A part of wanted to do what I always do, to M in order to "Clear my head" and therefore I can reject the idea of calling her. And then I remembered all those times I did that and how it didn't make me happy.

    I'm not doing it, not the escort, not the M, nothing. If I want to make my life better, I have to understand that this desire is nothing except an addiction.

    Time to meditate, listen to some music , clear my head and maybe cry.

    Sorry I just needed to write something, I feel this is a victory, but you have no idea how much force it takes to deny this incredibly strong urge.

    Anyway, good night everyone.

    I have a feeling that I know exactly what you're talking about. Urges like that are rough, but congratulations on your progress. The hardest enemy to conquer is yourself, and you just kicked your own ass (in the best possible way). ;)

    I was about to relapse too, but it was too obvious that I was about to fap out of self imposed boredom. Plus I've already seen everything there is to see, couldn't even get excited.
     
  5. It wasn't so clear last night but I woke up feeling I did the right thing, it's just that moment where everything becomes blurry and nothing matters, at least I know I'm walking a better path now than I have before, I want to always make the right choice.

    I had a hard stressful day at work yesterday. Started doing my usual and looking through escort websites trying to pick the right one. Recently Iv become very perticular with the type of girl I pick and the kind of service they provide. Thankfully that saves me from seeing them but luckily it was like I knew something was going to happen so I took just enough cash with me and left my card at home. I know exactly what that overwhelming feeling is like. The good thing is you've got it under control, I'm yet to find that hopefully I will soon.

    I've been there.. yes being picky or having a budget certainly can help in my experience.

    I'm struggling with porn still, but I have been over 6 months without seeing an escort. I found adding up what I had spent or was going to spend, and then thinking what else I could do with that money helped big time!
     

  8. Maybe Ive kept myself from doing it, but lets assume a hypothetical, I walk down the street and an escort offers me sex, I don't feel confident I'd turn it down.

    The mere distance and lack of money deposited at my bank account for a down payment is what is keeping me from doing it, which is why I'm not depositing a lot of money on my account on purpose.

    I am only one step short of doing it so, it's not like I really figured it out, all I am doing is preventing myself from doing it, if I had an easier access I don't think I could've resist.
     
  9. So i think this is how i beat addiction and realign the brain

    Each time a decision of no is made when its hard...you break some of the default negative behaviour and rewire

    Well fucking done!!
