working on it

ive gone off the wagon recently and noticed myself getting SUPER IRRITABLE

it's funny bc it[s the same exact feelings I had when I started on day 1-3 and was super irritable, expect now it's because I keep relapsing!! Like too much sugar or something

This is a good sign for me that my body WAS adjusting before I fell off, so I will do my best to continue it.


My new goal is to get a streak of 9 days (a record for me) by Mid Agusut. hopefully can do it even before end of July! Let's see
One thing that has helped me is putting my phone away an hour or two before going to bed and using that time to read a book. It also helps putting your phone in another room other than your bedroom when sleeping as it reduces the stress that comes with using porn before bed. Just try a little adjustments and before you know it, you'll make some progress.
Wish you all the best and take it one day at a time

day 1 complete

again slight depression, but also feel more purposeful than usual, probably more than necessary

I notice when I do relapse it's been when work gets stressful or just get bored (two ends of spectrum)..

It's moments like these especially when we relapse feel as though the whole world has come crushing down on us. I for one normally relapse when I didn't get enough sleep during the previous night and feel a sense of lethargy during the next day thinking that if I take one peek or use P I'll get rid of my stress or tiredness but in actual sense it's P that's causing that stress and why I couldn't sleep in the first place. I created a loop and when I stay away from it that's when I feel the withdrawal symptoms trying to wage war in my head. Actually what my body is doing is coming to terms with the decrease in the artificial highs that P gives and wanting to get back there hence it acting out but it's only temporary.

Just pick yourself up and remember why you started thus and that your giving up nothing in letting go of this drug and all it does is brain wash us into thinking its all we need in life. It definitely isn't. Try reading the EasyPeasyMethod of quitting porn and visit their site at
https://easypeasymethod.org/ it truly is a game changer and helps you realise the myths porn has created ever since it came into our lives
Good luck and you got this!

Hey June, what helps with me is to realize where I failed previously, then patch this. If I come back stronger each time I will win.

Stay strong!
