Hi all,
I was on here about a year ago and was trying to reboot, but unfortunately didn't succeed. However, since that time I've had about nine months of therapy which was spectacularly valuable. It's actually the third substantial amount of therapy I've had and I was ready to rip out a whole load of negativity from my life. I won't pretend that everything is sorted out, but the back drop of self-criticality and self-hate that predominated substantial periods of my life has ended - at least I'm aware of it and pick it up a lot faster.
So, I'm keen to be in a proper relationship now and whilst sex isn't a relationship, it can be an important part. As such I've been rebooting for a while now - I'm currently 9 weeks and 4 days clean. I can't deny there's been some masturbation but without porn or orgasm - I know this isn't good though, so have stopped it.
Anyway, I'll leave it there for now - I hope you're all well.
