Day 38

I’m just constantly exhausted at work now. The job really hasn’t changed much, but I don’t have energy for anything after. I am falling asleep at 5. I hope after this week i feel better. I haven’t had really any desire to watch p, but like I said in the past, it might just be that it is currently “unavailable” and my mind is seeing it as not an option. I hope that it stays this way when the restrictions are lifted. It isn’t like that it would bother me if I had restrictions like these for the rest of my life because it honestly wouldn’t, but unfortunately, covenant eyes is extremely pricey.

hello my friend. first of all congratulations for the series. i have something to ask. do you think that doing mo when you are so bored makes you fall back? Does mo make the benefits disappear?

I haven’t really seen any decrease in benefits, but I don’t feel much different other than less mood swings and generally better erection quality with a girl. I think MO can set people back who have developed PIED because MO and PMO are so closely linked. I think if you are used to fantasizing P scenes when MO’ing you really shouldn’t do it. Another reason MO can be problematic is the chaser effect that will often cause people to relapse. I don’t think you should worry about if it slows down your progress, it is more like does it lead back to porn if it does then you should cut it out.

Day 41

I MO'ed day 38 night. There was no fantasy this time. I got some urges just now. I can tell I am really not out of the woods considering this was a very minor trigger, but it triggered me really bad. I avoid triggers most of the time, but yea, I need to find a way to deal with it better.

Day 42

I am so tired of this addiction. I probably will pay for covenant eyes for another year. I just want to be done with this. It has taken so much time away from me and lately, I have made a lot of progress in everything I care about and I know porn will just ruin it and it will suck away all my time. Getting hit with that big urge yesterday was a wake up call. I hate this addiction so much I’m okay paying money to stay away from it. God that’s depressing.

MO’ed on Monday night. This job stress is really getting to me now. Obnoxious shit just keeps happening with work.

Still staying away from p at the moment. I will have a longer post explaining what happened when I feel the need to at the moment I am just dealing with urge lash-back from this recent relapse.

My last relapse I got really overconfident and I removed filters without taking care of my own behavior and I inevitably relapsed because like usual with p it starts from something small and escalates.
Since then, I have had some of the worst urges I have ever had and for a whole week, I felt like I didn’t want to quit p. I was *that* obsessed. What has helped during that time was giving myself a rule that I had to watch a video that disgusted me for 10 minutes before I could watch p. I never made it past 2 minutes. This gives me a way out to use so I can actually work on dealing with my urges instead of relying solely on filters. At the moment, I feel normal again and I no longer feel obsessed with p. I am disappointed about the relapse, but I feel okay because I am immediately getting back on track and that’s what matters the most.
 
14 days is great progress - keep it up!

How did you get tendinitis in your hands sounds tough - like RSI?
Please take good care of your hands and nip it in the bud - I know some people who have struggled with it a LOT
But look on the bright side - it's another incentive not to act out!

A combination of piano and video games. I did finger exercises a lot one day on the piano and then played a video game for far too long caused the problem. Lately it’s been worse. I thought it got better but I need a longer break
 
Yeah that's tough man
I play guitar and also spend all day typing at a computer, so it's something I'm worried about too
Maybe take a break from piano - use it as a chance to work on theory?

Hope it gets better soon. And of course, stay porn-free friend! 💪

At the moment that’s what I am doing. Unfortunately, I am using the games to deal with work stress. I need to take a break from both.

I feel very worn out. I don’t have any impulse for p, but I feel very tired. Depressed is the best description. The future looks grim at the end of the day. I am not happy.
 
Just sending you some support brother!
It will pass I am sure
I bet it is withdrawal - we have been dripfeeding our minds dopamine for so long that there is a lot of pain when we cut off that supply
But our minds will become resensitized and in the end the pleasure will be greater

Stay strong - you got this 💪
