Man you're killing it! Well done choosing to quit p and change your life. P does not relieve anxiety, it creates it only to wire your brain even harder to the stimulus of PMO. You sure are doing very well and your story is not different to many of us in here. Dont feel shame about your...

Another minor setback on Saturday makes this day 2. I really need to start taking this seriously again.

So... I just slipped. Started with me getting really irritated, then isolating myself, then looking at some tabloid newspapers, then looking at their more sketchy stuff, then P ... M ... O. This was day 15. Now it's day 1. I dont even feel like being hard on myself, I just need to face the fact...

Day 13. Urges come and go. When I see a fine looking lady I get excited and since I’m in a relationship I don’t want to act on it. My method to calm myself down has previously been PMO. I don’t do that anymore so I’m back at recognising the urge, exploring it and it’s nature to then let it go...

Thanks heaps mate! This 5,5 point plan sounds really useful and might be what I try to do, without really realising all the steps one by one. Will use this. Been away from RN for some days, but been staying strong and doing activities that align with my goals which ofcourse means NO PMO. I...

Day 9 Feeling quite good today. Having a day off with my GF just fixing things around the apartment. She just moved in (while I was having a severe man cold o_O), so a lot to do with organising things. Serious urges when micro breaking, but there is no way I will be surfing for p when she is IN...

Thanks a lot, my friend! Feels good that you are rooting for me. I will go back and watch some of the background content / basics today. Have been reading a lot of other guys threads these weeks, will continue that. :) This is day 8

This is day 7. One whole week Loads to do today. Cooking, cleaning, working out and going to work. When stopping for micro breaks I really feel the urge to PMO, but I am now more sure than ever, that I need to withstand. I will not fail.

Sorry about the slip, Pra. I don't think MO is unhealthy, but I think that for P addicts it's a slippery slope and for my own part it has always led to real slips - P subs, PMO etc. Another thing is, that I really like myself when my libido is high. I get a lot of positive responce from my...

This is day 6. Found this forum for the first time around a year ago. At that time I was going through a hurtful separation from my then girlfriend of around 1,5 yrs. We were living together, planning to move into the country side together to start a new life with family and such stuff. At...

So happy for you! Well done talking to your parents and really getting to the root of the issue. I am impressed with and inspired by your work. Don't stop now, don't stop for a second. I think I was on the same road - nearly made it to 2 mths after talking to friends and family about my problem...

Very impressive streak you're on. Congrats on starting a new life. I dont think the sex dreams are a bad thing no matter if you O or not. Once you connect with a real person I think it'll cool it self down. Your body is working :cool:

Congrats on not watching p for 5 mths. Impressive! Im guessing you've made great progress in large parts of your life already! Having no science or experience that backs my advice, I really think that thinking about p while having sex is a slippery slope. I try to remind my self that the...

It does, I agree. Relapse is a natural thing, but it is important to remember that the faster you get back on track, the less you will be set back by your relapse. As Tryinghere said, it's very useful to replace PMO with healthy activities, because once the urges come to find you, you'll be out...

How are you doing FittyBands?

I feel you man. Don't be so hard on yourself. You are deeply addicted, as so many of us. The biggest mistake is to believe that falling of the horse makes it worthless to get back up again. Take care, keep in touch!

Thanks for sharing your story FittyBands! And a great thanks to a lot of other users giving great insight. I really admire your honesty in this thread and your analysis of your situation. It seems that you have a lot of resources to fight this addiction but is struggling with finding the right...

Day 2 Right you are, Yogi. Easier said than done though. I’d definitely define my self as a computer nerd. I’m “always” online. Trying to get offline, but my mind is really wired to the screen. Been trying to keep active and will continue so forthcoming days. Doing interval track training...

Day 1 Slept awfully. Had a good Day with a long bike ride and met up with my ex (from 4-5yrs ago). We just hung out like normal friends. No sexual tension what so ever. Went to the beach, played disc golf, ate ice cream. 🥳 Looking forward to going back to work tomorrow. Thanks for the support guys!

Right you are, guys! Had a good day I think. Talked to parents and some friends. Reached out, got some good talks and understanding. Hard living alone, having no one around in everyday life. I get inactive, surfing random stuff —> p-sub —> PMO. Day 0. Tomorrow I have plans all day. Should be...
