I know that I'm not closely counting days, but I do track my lapses and check-in occassionally to record streaks. This helps me to stay focused, and it is a little way to celebrate current abstinence.
In that regard I realized yesterday that I'm actually still counting back to June 3rd! How you say...? Here's the breakdown so far from latest lapses to now:
PMO > 183 days
P > 26 days
MO > 5 days
Mind you, I'd rather have just a straight count, "one counter" as it were. But to be fair to oneself, this kind of breakdown can help to assess what's really going on... The fact that, on November 7th, I didn't PMO, or take it (P) farther than I did, was itself a miracle. In fact, I kind of got bored with it. I would say that my streak from June 3rd on has helped me in that critical moment to not go further...
Nonetheless, to continue on this current streak to be totally clean from everything is what I want, and so the MO count is important regarding this.
