Relapsed again
Anytime there’s an urge to watch porn, think bout how miserable you feel after. I sometimes come on here to read other journals and covers with others so I don’t fall off track. I’ve been able to go 2 months without M, deactivated my Snapchat, ig too but I find myself downloading Twitter again everytime. I find myself going through profiles of random ladies which makes me yearn for PMO. Anytime there’s an urge, I remind myself how bad I want to break free and how miserable I feel after. I don’t trust myself but each time I stay PMO free, I feel proud and then remind myself of the ultimate goal

Thanks for the response. I will keep trying to remind myself that the relapses are hurting me in the long run. But in the short term, sometimes the urge comes on so strong and you think you’ll just feel better if you look at porn. Then as soon as you’re finished the shame sets in, almost instantly.

I’m going to make a promise to people reading this thread. I won’t look at porn for the rest of October. I’m going to make that my initial goal. I don’t like breaking promises so I’m hoping this will keep me accountable.

Relapsed with one image then stopped. Not going to go back for the rest of today. But I’m sorry to say I broke the promise I made earlier in this thread. So I am resetting my counter.

Relapse carried on yesterday so today is my Day 1 again. Feeling some temptation but sticking to keeping my phone downstairs in a public part of my house. Also going to try another SAA meeting later and see if it’s helpful.

Day 2. Avoided porn yesterday. Going to attempt No Nut November and not drinking alcohol all month. Also focusing on the Three Circles concept that is talked about in SAA.

Relapsed last night. Going to try and start No Nut November again today since yesterday was a total failure and I can do better.

Day 2.

Locked my phone in the car again last night. I am doing that as a precautionary measure when I get urges.
