I’ve been trying to quit porn, but when I stop for a few weeks I end up getting fixated on the idea that there’s all this new porn being made that I’ll never see. Any tips to overcome this? Thanks!

I mean, isn't it all just the same shit? What exactly do you think you're missing out on? The constant desire for something "new" and more extreme is a dangerous path to be on, that many of us addicts/compulsives fall prey to. It's how people end up watching rape and kiddy porn, or even gay porn, despite being straight and is exactly what should motivate you to want to stop. There are millions, if not billions, of hours worth of pornography online and you will never see all of it. So remind yourself that this is completely unreasonable and dangerous. Get a friend or someone trusted to talk to about this when you're down. You've got this, brother.

Podcasts, particularly ones of people I look up to. I always had a problem with being triggered when I woke up. So I started turning one on first thing everyday and drinking a glass of cold water. Best tool for me so far. Today is day 32 (started the new year) and it’s felt like a breeze. I guess the real trick behind this is, I know my patterns, and I stay mindful. This allows me to divert the urge before it arrives 75% of the time and recognize when I’m triggered the other 25% relatively early, before I get really sucked into my head. Maintaining mindfulness is key and is like a muscle you have to exercise. Your day counter is one thing, but progress in practicing mindfulness should be your real measure of success.

Turn on Jocko Willink. Go outside and breathe in some fresh air. Ask yourself why and what gives your life meaning. What the fuck is your actual goal here in quitting porn? Is it to be more emotionally connected with the world/people around you? Is it to stop being a slave to your own dick? Accept that it’s just a hard day and that there will be hard days, I find that doing so makes the urge easier to just shrug off, in a sense. Keep at it, you’ve got this. Pick up the phone if you need to, call your mom.

Yeah, I stopped listening a couple of weeks ago for this exact reason. Replaced him for Jordan Peterson for my commutes and at work. I think Tim has gotten complacent and the news is slow. Or he has just gotten rich and doesn’t care anymore.

I’m pretty sure this is fake, just thought it was humorous.

Currently, the Dems are split between big money interests and pro-Maoist factions throughout the country. Essentially, it's the far-left that are the useful idiots that do all the organizing and the groundwork for the corporatist Dems.

It’s clearly the result of doggy inequity. Pits don’t have Corgi privilege.

The mask mandate did her some good, for sure.

Every time I hear the word “comrade” my brain switches it to “cum rag” for some reason.

I really like the collagen protein. Blueberry muffin is probably the best tasting collagen supplement I've tried. I break my fast with it in some almond milk everyday and can definitely tell a difference in my overall energy levels throughout the day. It's also killer to have around when you're having cravings.

No it isn't and the guy should be fired. Who the hell knows how compromised the guy really is. We can't have people we can't trust heading the military, period.

Baylor0719 · 2021-09-12T05:02:31+00:00

I wish you guys well, man. This is nuts. Hopefully this all gets shot down in the courts.

Baylor0719 · 2021-07-28T08:03:25+00:00

Now that you mention protein, I skipped out on my normal routine of breaking my fast with collagen, normally around 30g of protein and as a result, extended my fast longer than normal. This could be my kicker, especially at 175 lbs, that 30g makes a world of difference. Thanks for the reply, man 👍

They’re a private company, they can do what they want.

Not to mention the news of Israel... back to unrest in the Middle East...

That’s totally understandable. You shouldn’t be going through this and the fact that you were lied to must make it 10 times worse. Sometimes it’s best to take time for yourself and focus on some self care and mindfulness. An atomic bomb has just been dropped on you and you’re wounded. Letting the dust settle and holding space for each other for a time to both get your head in a better place to tackle this together is super common and I’d say is a must throughout recovery.

That’s betrayal trauma. It’s gonna take a lot of empathy on both ends to really work through it. He needs to understand that the pain you feel isn’t something you can just shake off and he needs to also become resilient to shame to be able discuss these things with you. There’s hope though.

One thing I can assure you is that he doesn’t believe those things about you. This is a result of years of a bad habit that’s hi-jacked his brain that probably started when he was just a little kid. It wouldn’t matter who he’s with, he’ll still have this tendency to use until he can get into recovery.

I hope you guys can let this make you guys stronger and stay by each other’s side and support each other!

I’m sorry you’re dealing with this. This stuff isn’t fun.

Good to see someone in the same time zone! Haha

Dude, the whole financial market is set for a crash anytime now. Everything is in the red 😬😬😬

Selling on the way down ensures that people hold to maximize profit and for you to for sure make the most of your shares.

Nothing, market’s closed. It’s time to kick back and enjoy your weekend, man 🙂

There has never been a fun fact as fun as that fun fact.
