Day 1
Whelp, here we go....again.
I'm still mad at myself for relapsing, and then again I'm not in a way. Relapsing made me realize more of my triggers and that to be truly successful, you have to take falls and stumbles. But you don't stay down....
Also, it made me realize what my life was before PMO. It was amazing.....I felt like I was traveling back in time. It felt like I there was no such thing as P. I felt happy for once in my life.....I've never felt that kind of happiness since I started PMO 3 years ago. Now, I'm more determined than ever to get that happiness back. I just have to keep my head up, never look back, and move on.-Rec101

Day 2
Nothing much has happened today. Just been kind of depressed and sad.
No major urges just very small ones. I'm keeping my mind of PMO by reading books. It seems to be working, which is pretty cool. Tomorrow morning, I'll wake up and do my morning work out routine. Until next time-Rec101

Day 4
Sorry didn't have time to post yesterday. I was too tired. There was a major storm that I slept through this morning. Lol . Day 3 was just a bunch of flashback and minor urges, and so was today. My friends and I had just gone downtown to see the Holiday Stroll. It's a thing where we walk around downtown and there are people passing out free food and singing Christmas Songs and stuff. It was pretty fun, and I'm wiped out. Gonna go to bed. Until next time -Rec101

I've relapsed... I tried my best to stay away, but after you relapse and relapse, you start to think about something. That's "Why am I doing this?" For me I thought I was doing it for myself, for the people who believe in me. But now I'm having second thoughts. I don't know why I'm doing this anymore. I'm going to try and figure out why I'm doing this reboot. I'm going to find my reason. I'll be away from this site for awhile, but that does not mean I'm going to PMO while I'm gone. I'll reset my counter when I do... I'll come back and post here when I'm ready. Until then, I write this post with humility, Humility that will only make me stronger in my stopping PMO. -Rec101
 
Hey man the reason why you're doing this reboot is easy. Its because you nor anybody else on this forum no longer wishes to be a slave to porn! Personally, it has been running my life for far too long and it has ruined my teenage years! Being a slave to porn made me miss all the fun I should have had to stay hone and jerk off constantly! You are young. The reason you're doing this reboot is so when you grow up you can have fun , have a clear head, and live your life according how you wish to do it. During your time off I hope you can stay away from PMO we are all here supporting you every step of the way as everyone is for me too :)

Hey guys, I'm back. I did relapse, but I've learned to keep on trying and that success takes many failures. So here I am. Gonna try my best until I stop my PMO addiction. I have a huge headache so I'm going to go to bed. Had major urges today, but I stopped them by playing Basketball and doing homework. No flashbacks so far. Until tomorrow- Rec101

Day 2
Thanks for your guys' support! I really appreciate it and it helps ALOT. It feels like my counter is off though. I know I PMOed 2 days ago, but when it goes to 7days I'll reset it. I know it doesn't make sense now but it will a week from now. Anyway, no major urges cuz I've been reading most of the time, but when I'm not the urges are strong. Tomorrow I'm going to start studying the recovery process more and what I need to do to have a good reboot. Sorry for the short content, but I'm doing these late at night before I sleep.- Rec101

Day3
Today we had our holiday concert. And school is cancelled tomorrow since there's a storm coming. I  am going to have a lot of homework during the weekend. The urges we're strong today. I've have minor flashbacks and fantasies pop into my head every now and then, but I just slap myself and try to focus on the task at hand. It's really late, and I need my energy because I have plans this weekend. Until next time-Rec101

Day 5
Sorry I forgot to post yesterday. Mostly because I was out and when I came home I just dropped...
The urges were really strong,but I just opened a book and read. It's a really good way to pass time and keep your mind of PMO. I've mentioned before that I have lower back pains, but now that pain has extended to my right shoulder joint on my back. It hurts if I try to reach for something with my right arm. Good thing I'm left hand dominant. Lol. Is there any chance that this pain will go away anytime soon? Feel free to tell me your guys' response. Thanks, Until next time- Rec101

Day 7
Yesterday the urges were really really strong. I started touching myself for like 3 seconds then stopped and asked myself, "is another relapse really worth it?" I had made up my mind quickly and said no and went outside to practice basketball. Since I've reacted my goal of 7days tomorrow I will my goal 2weeks and when I achieve that I'll keep expanding it. Thanks to all of you who still have faith in me. I know I'll fall along the way, but that doesn't mean I'll stay down and give up. I will keep fight and praying to god until i conquer this addiction. -Rec101

Sorry for not posting, but I've been busy the whole week getting Christmas Decorations up. Anyway I relasped...well my version on relapse. In this reboot my goal is to not to PMO, avoid P and MO, and basically not ejaculate besides in wet dreams. Well I didn't watch P, but I did ejaculate. I was playing a video game and there was a nude seen and I got aroused...and you can guess what happened next. I'm not proud of what I've done, but that's what I'm here for: to get over this PMO addiction. And I'm not going to quit no matter what. -Rec101
 
I think a good idea would be to stop watching P. If you have any files in your computer, USB, tablet, mobile phone, video console, (well, you get the point), etc., you MUST delete them. If you have any sex magazines, throw them to the trash can or burn them or whatever you want, but get rid of them.

I consider you should not focus on PMO altogether, but only in P. In my case, once P was entirely removed, my masturbation frequency dropped to around once a week. I no longer feel the need to orgasm anymore unless my body really aches for it. And when that happens, believe me, you won't need any porn.

P always lead to M and edge or to MO. But when you are very horny because you've been abstinent for some time, M does not call for P to get a good O. I think that M when your body is telling you it wants some sexual-tension release is good, but watching P --to MO or not-- is a bad idea. Tell us what you think.

Keep going.

Today has been pretty tough. Temptations are pretty strong but somehow I'm more than able to get over them now. I now realize that rebooting is not easy, especially the first couple week, but from reading the success stories, I know that it's possible. Thanks for all of your advice and support, and ever since I started his reboot, I've never given less than %100. So I will keep giving %100 until this PMO addiction stops. Until next time -Rec101

Day 30 here, I'm feeling like shit.. Never in my whole life, I've felt this worse. I've had symptoms of pretty much every disease, but nothing in diagnosis.

Im 17, and I've missed my college for like almost 2 weeks now.

Body pain, Muscle spasms, Sinus infections, Hay fever, Allergic Rhintis, Anxiety, Slight Tremors/Shaking, Fatigue, Irregular breathing, Anxiety Attacks... etc -.-

Anxiety is taking a big toll on me.

It's so freaking hard, all this can go away, with just one P session.. But I've come up so far.. I cannot give up now.

Day2
So one of the reasons of why I'm rebooting is because of my acne. I'm in middleschool and I'm about to be in highschool next year, and I want girls o be attracted to me. Other than PMO, Acne is really affecting my self confidence. And if you guys say that "M doesn't cause acne." Well I can say that that's %100 load of bullshit (lol) cuz everytime I go a certain period without PMO or MO, the breakouts start to lessen. When I relapse and PMO, the breakouts get worse. So hopefully if i can make it more than 2 weeks without PMO, maybe I won't have that much acne next year in highschool. Also, I'm going to change my diet and excrsise more (my New Year's Resolution). Anyway, the day went by pretty fast today, believe it or not. Mostly I was out of the house cuz of Christmas shopping, and when I got home, I just played guitar and looked up online lessons on guitar lessons. The urges weren't that strong today. I'm managing to keep my mind of PMO and on other things. Until next time - Rec101

Well I'm happy to say that I'm still going strong on this reboot. I haven't been posting in the past few days because of the holidays. My whole family is having a gathering at my grandparents for New Years. It's pretty hard to find time to post with ur cousins always hanging around you. I barely even have time now. I'm sharing a room with 3 other ppl! The temptations are there but are immediately denied at the moment Cuz I'm with other ppl. I've metioned my Lowe back pain before, and it's still there, but the more I go without PMO, it seems to be fading away little by little. Anyway I better get back to bed before one of my cousins wake up and wonders what doing. I'll try and find more time to post and update. Until next time-Rec101

Day 11 Part 1
Happy New Year! I know I'm a bit late, but i was spending time with my family and had no time to post. Anyway, I'm got home late last night and this morning I woke up and my underwear was wet. Yup that's right! I had a wet dream. But the wierd thing is that I have no memory of what I dreamed of. Ussualy when I have wet dreams and wake up I remember it for awhile, but now I don't. This has happened twice. Is it normal? Is it because of the reboot? Plz feel free to post and tell me what you think. On to other news, the urges are REALLY STRONG! As usual the second week is a bitch for me. I can never seem to get past it, but now I have the confidence that I can. I'm praying to God for the strength to get over this addiction, and now I have the power. I will post later tonight. -Rec101

Wet dreams are very normal when you keep yourself away from orgasms for some time. If you can't O during sex or M, at one point you'll ejaculate while you're asleep.

Day 11 Part 2
Sorry for posting part 2 so late. I had ALMOST relapsed cuz I wasn't thinking and the urges were so strong. I prayed to God and managed to keep my self together for the rest of the day dwelling on other things. This wasn't my first time over coming a huge urge like this and I know that there will be more to come, but I will be prepared and ready with God on my side when they come.-Rec101
