    It's been 7 days now since I've been clean. And man is it hard. For eight years nearly everyday, I must break this habit. I feel no changes so far but I suppose it's still very early. I hope to change my state of mind and health physically by doing this. I never would've seen the trouble the porn industry has caused if I didn't start this challenge. It has ruined my mental health. The way I perceive the opposite sex isn't healthy. Gotta keep goin strong

    Minute by minute. Hour by hour. Day by day.

    It is tough. You will have good days and bad days. Stay focused on the bigger picture - staying clean, not falling for PMO.

    Don't dwell on the urges, the brain trying to tell you to PMO. Focus on the positive, repeat to yourself ... I've gone X days, I can do one more. I'm in control. And it feels good. I like how I'm feeling about myself.

    Know your triggers... acknowledge them and make efforts to not let them happen. Change routines, habits. Create positive distractions. When a trigger happens, call it out and make yourself stop, get up move. Walk around.

    Good luck! Keep us posted!

    I hear ya Lachlan. This is hard, and it's turning out to be a lot harder than I thought. But, I think if we keep at it, we can succeed in the end.
