uggghhh. July 9, last post. Relapse relapse relapse. It's august now. why the hell do we all keep relapsing. me included. I spend a month or so away from here but then return, and I've relapsed a bunch of times and feel shame returning to say I have, but whatever. but we're all I the same boat...

How you doing today Searching? I am in a similar position. Replied to you in oct last year -> but have failed back too, particularly today for me. How have the last day or so been? My plan: finish my book I'm reading, easypeasy, then head to read some other books and forums too ->, here, and...

Thanks TLBT -> appreciate the support! I'm working again towards rebooting -> a few more relapses, I am ashamed to say. I am quite inspired by Blondie on here who was posting daily, until he became confident enough he would only return for milestones. I am thinking I would like to do similar...

Last posted 14 February. I must admit I am always embarrassed about returning here once I've had a relapse. Which has happend over the past few days. I was doign quite well for a few months. Some relapses here and there. But it seems that I've slipped quite a bit lately. However I seem to have...

P.S. Zeke - I've been into the beers the last few days. I'm sorry!!! But I am keen to cut down. :)

its weird. i'm day 12. or 13. not totally sure. it might be 14 to be honest. ihave had some urges today, that have come and gone. at some point today I was keen to relapse and then two thoughts that counteracted that came into play: a) (not as signficiant, but maybe decisive) I didn't have a...

nice work GBS. Im just behind you in terms of streak. I like your approach to slips - its refreshing. And definitely a positive outlook. Hope we both keep it up.

Cheers Zeke I agree I need to cut down on beer. Though i do personally think the carbs are mostly in the alcohol. My triggers are boredom and stress: loneliness is one, stress is another - about things I should be doing , or need to be doing, etc. it’s a good thought to write down solutions to...

Working through the urges; internalising the easypeasy messages. Still keeping on. Day 4? I think. Stay strong everyone!

I'm glad I've found someone else that has found EasyPeasy. I'm working through it myself too. I feel our stories are similar. Read it once, not certain I took it in, then relapsed for a bit. However as I read it, I agree with your thoughts - it frames 'rebooting' positively rather than labelling...

I’ve been away from this forum for a couple of months it seems. Which overall probably balances in my detriment. Part of the reason has been disappointment at myself, and the - is it shame, or frustration that I feel towards myself - of coming on here and announcing another relapse. After two...

Cheers. Today is Day 7. I'm happy with progress. Fairly busy day today, so I'll just be quick to check in. Urges about a 4 today - hoping to remain strong! Cheers

Nice nice nice zacker! Keep focus man! Day 90 and then 100 and then 110 --> hope to be there with you some day too!

Hi. I like this idea. I've actually downloaded a book to read called "Unf**k your Shame" which is by some doctor, and she writes a few of them on a similar theme: shame, worth, grief. Most of them only seem to be ~100 pages so a nice easy read. I don't know if they're any good!! - I've only jsut...

Day 6. Thanks all for your support. Looking at dates and days it appears today is day 6 not day 5, which in the greater scheme of things means really nothing at all, but it is still a nice little win to have an extra day added to the tally! I've started tracking my mood, motivation and urges...

i'm still here and it's Day 4! No PMO or MO. Today was pretty unproductive and, naturally, also the urges returned today. I guess it just demonstrates boredom is a trigger of mine. In positives (or in a productive sense) I finished The P Trap book. Still undecided which book to read next, but...

Day 3 no PMO/MO. Not much to add today. I'll probably try to make a longer post tomorrow. Plan to finish The Porn Trap today pending how I go. Hope everyone is staying strong and sober!

Day 2. No PMO / MO I quite like the way some of us on here divide their progress between days without P and days without MO - and that down the line you can track progress for both. I think my recovery is going to need some time away from MO to help reset everything, so I am going to start...

So inspiring GBS, >1300 days no PMO.

It's Day 1 again for me. Last post was on Day 1 i can see - i was planning to make a post and had felt quite down heading into the weekend. I hoped to make a post prior to the weekend. Looks like I lasted a total of 3 days. Then had some alcohol over this weekend and slipped hard. Came home...
