How's day 13 feeling?

I hope you're having a good day.
Hey thanks for checking in!

I love to start my day off with a shower - and that tends to be the time where I have urges to MO, which was the case today as it was a couple days ago. I think if I wasn't on this 90 day challenge I might have given in. Doing a challenge like this helps me, it gives me that extra reason to keep going when I want to give in. Aside from that I feel great - and honestly it was only a brief moment of my day where I felt that way so I have nothing substantial to complain about.

How are you doing with it?

This is great to hear, nice job refraining @Galatians51. I'm sure now when you have sex with your lady, it's so much better too now because you're not only NOT looking at porn, but also not masturbating as well. I know for myself when I stopped both practices five years ago, when my Lady and I would have sex, it was so much more passionate and intimate because I hadn't spent all of my sexual energy on masturbating, much less looking at porn!

I gave in a few days ago during sex and released after 20 somethings days of semen retention, so there's that, but like I said before, obviously no masturbating. I've been "wanting" for years to hold my semen for 90 days straight while still having sex, but only have accomplished two 60 day periods so far. I figure at this point I must not want it bad enough because if I did, I would have alreadly accomplished it by now. :cool:

But all is good, no masturbating and definitely NO porn.

Best brother.

That's fantastic man! I personally don't think there's anything wrong with giving in during sex... like you said, as long as we aren't PMO and MO on our own, then we are good to go.

And yes, sex with my wife is 1,000x better when i'm not PMO and MO. Without porn i'm so much more attracted to my wife, and then without masturbating (to porn or not), sex is so much more enjoyable.

Just had a random urge to look at porn. I think it’s because I’m home alone. It was a fleeting thought with that strong feeling that feels like it’s pulling you towards it. I’m not writing this because I’m struggling with the thought, but more because on my last reboot I didn’t really write about the feelings I was getting before I messed up and I don’t want that to happen again… so here’s to being very honest about what I’m dealing with.

It’s weird how on day 117 my brain still wants PMO so badly, but I guess that’s the whole deal - we always have to be ready for that regardless of how far along we are in our recovery.
