Relapse

Looks like relapse. Last night, I was high and had the idea to "see if I could get an erection," and got close to ejaculating. That triggered compulsive viewing of porn for like 30 minutes, and finally I literally humped my bed to orgasm. Lol... Then today, just like I did before I started reboot, I looked up porn and masturbated. I don't really know how to feel..

I think the main question is...was the bed satisfied first?  Ha.  Don't kill  yourself.  No one gets clean the first time, everyone fails the first time.  I think you have to ask yourself, what are your long term goals.  So, what are they?  Quitting porn is a process, not an event. It happens over time, not at once.  There is no reason you cannot be completely clean in 90 days.

It doesn't mean anything.

Keep going, porn is not an option. 

Peace.

I relapsed 3 separate times in the first week.  If you push yourself through the first 3 weeks it will get easier.  It did for me anyways.  Perhaps you should try Sex Addicts Anonymous.  I go to 2 meetings a week and it has been a big help.  There are tools other than this forum to help fight addiction.  I go to counseling, go to SAA, stay active on this forum, write in a journal, and have gotten on anti-depressants to help me overcome my addiction.  It takes arduous work to rid ourselves of an addiction that probably many of us have been caring since we hit puberty, and we don't get rid of it, we just learn to manage and control it. 
 
Try to quit the marijuana.  To reboot fastest, you need to sensitize your brain as much as possible.  I've cut out nicotine, alcohol, marijuana, caffeine, Adderall.. Anything except food really..    I'm even considering cutting out chocolate.   


I've been at this for 22 months now... Gotta speed this up and quit the relapses.
