90 days ago I had enough! Porn and Masturbation ruled my days and I no longer even enjoyed it. I just did it because of habit, addiction, and because I felt like I had to. I decided it was time to walk away.
Today I am celebrating my success over the past 90 days. I've had some bumps in the road for sure, but I can't believe I've made it this far. I'm not thinking too much about the future right now, just feeling good about where I'm at. I would really like to work on my anxiety and stress more in the next 90 days while still being sure to be mindful about sex and masturbation. I'm not letting those thoughts and feelings that come up to control me.
Enjoy the day everyone. Remember you can do this. You have the ability to change. I never thought I could come this far. It is possible to make it through a day, a week, even a month without looking at porn. I know, hard to believe!
I wish you all great success on your journey.

As always, thanks for the reply Phineas. I do think that MO is a big part of PMO especially for those of us over 50. We started with just masturbation as kids, maybe we found a magazine or maybe we were just in our bed late at night and fantasizing about all the possibilities out there. I know that my body could use a nice long break from it and that it would most likely help me heal quicker to be away from it. We'll see how things go. The fact that I'm at day 90 today and have had only 5 orgasms during that time truly amazes me. And, I had them without porn or a computer. I'm not sure I'll ever completely be away from masturbation, but we'll see. It does show me that I can control myself and still enjoy life. Before this reboot in those 90 days I may have normally had 100, 110, 120 orgasms.Some can work MO back into their life, say, after they've successfully rebooted. They do it 'mindfully', without fantasy. Good for them, lol...! For me, it's part of the whole thing I want to get away from.
