Patrick's Journal: A gay guy's imperfect reboot

[marsturm]

Every day without P is a good day.

 

[marsturm]

As long as I don't watch P everything is fine.

 

[marsturm]

Did I take away anything good from watching P? Yes. Realising that I can't take it anymore.

 

[marsturm]

There's only one question I need to ask myself: Have I been watching P today? If the answer is no, everything is fine.

 

[marsturm]

There is no better feeling than waking up in the morning and knowing I stayed clean the day before.

Morning wood has come back. Awesome.

 

[lyon03]

I never thought I'd congratulate someone on getting morning wood back but here goes: well done Patrick! I've always admired your commitment and dedication to reboot my friend so please keep coming back.

 

[marsturm]

Wishing you all a happy and P free day!

 

[lyon03]

You too Patrick. How goes your reboot my friend? Thinking of you.

 

[marsturm]

Feelings need to run through the body like water needs to run to the sea.

 

[marsturm]

The road to freedom is paved with the willingness to let go.

 

[marsturm]

I have the ability to start over at any time in my life.

Thanks for sharing Patrick. As I just shared on another thread, I'm not sure if it's truly helpful to just post slogans or lists on our threads. I hope that doesn't sting/offend my friend. What I'd like to know is how you're doing with your reboot my friend. Are you still using hook up apps? Are you sleeping well? Are you PMO-free these days? If not, what is your current goal. I'm writing all of this as a friend who cares. I look forward to your next post. PORN IS NOT AN OPTION.

1 month P free and counting! How did I do it? I just didn't do it.

 

[Red Bear]

Congrats, man. Keep it counting!

 

[marsturm]

Merry Christmas to all my fellow rebooters! Have a great P free day!

 

[marsturm]

Hi guys, Happy New Year to you all! I am one month porn free and counting! Let's walk together into a fabulous porn free 2018!

 

[lyon03]

Happy New Year Patrick! Keep going my friend.

 

[marsturm]

Thanks for your message, lyon, and Happy New Year to you, too!

I'm still P free but had a bad hickup through using a dating site which re-activated those neural pathways. Lesson learned, so no P relapse but a stupid relapse into old brain behaviours. It's back on the horse: No P, no addictive acting out without it.

Wishing you all a happy P free day!
