    The dark places will always be present, but don’t let that keep you from looking for the light

    Nice Toast! Good way of looking at things: I sometimes look back on my slip ups with frustration and sadness, of wasted attempts. Yours is a much better way of looking at things: as growth and learning, and experience. I am also a big supporter of early morning workouts - 5-630am is the...

    Thanks Toast! You too. I agree - need to make a list of goals so that, at the very least, I'm moving forwards, by doing the things I think are important. Things like, finish that book and work on reducing body fat below a certain percentage. I might look into a body fat scale as you guys have...

    Thanks toast! Agree. And 100%, what agood line - if it doesn’t challenge you it won’t change you. So true. Makes me more enthusiastic about this undertaking. Not much to mention today. Adding another day clean. Reaching 18 days clean I think? Looking forward to hitting 21 and onwards...

    Nice work dude. Seems like we’re at a similar stage in our recovery. With a background of attempts to quit lingering in the past. Keep strong. Keep active. Day 9 today - keep at it.

    Thanks Wink for the positive message. I agree gotta keep on the positive mindset with this process. Keep pushing. Today’s been fine. Somewhat productive. A bit of nerves and sadness. Mostly just thinking bout how long I’ve been working to get it outta my life and how many slip ups I’ve had...

    Thank you for your advice: I'm going through journals and posts now and I'll keep doing to more often. You're definitely right - there's a wealth of knowledge and experience within this forum - no need to reinvent the wheel! I'll also have to restart my hard reset - I've been MOing (without P...

    My rebooting journal

    May 2024 I've had a couple of relapses since my last post. Two I think, to be exact. Naturally, my absence from posting here coincided with some relapses ... who would have thought :/ Last was around two weeks ago so I'm slowly getting into gear. I've been listened to a podcast by a guy...

    My rebooting journal

    Hi and thanks for reading. 04/25/2024. I want this to be the last (and first) day of my new life. Have been fighting porn for years. Probably like a lot of you here. I actually had a thread in the 20-29 group, but as it does, porn has stuck around, and I've got older. So time to join the next...

    A porn-free life.

    Still struggling. I have done ok but not great. I made this post in Jan. since then I’ve managed up to 2 months porn free. That’s a good achievement. Last month has been hard though. Frequent relapses. I am not sure why. I DO know that I neglected this journal as soon as I created it. I have...

    A porn-free life.

    This, from this day forth, is my 1 year goal; it is my 10 year goal. Thanks for reading my journal. I've spent I think the last 10 years, on and off, trying to quit porn. So many promises, relapses, lies and angst. So much wasted time. I've used a journal before a few years ago, however...
