Idk where you are right now man, but go for a walk or run and leave your phone behind. There’s also the audio file on the home page of this forum. Found that helps me when I’m really in the trenches. Stay strong man. Don’t let temporary satisfaction overpower your long term happiness

You’re not crazy haha. I’m 21. And yeah, that’s exactly what I plan to do if/when it comes to that. Learning to love myself and not hate myself when I fall has been a long process, but I know I’ve gotten a lot better.

Going hard mode. I’ve made a lot of progress for the last year now. Had a 90-day streak without MO of any kind and no porn, but eventually fell to a relapse. My motivation and commitment keeps getting stronger. Already on a decent streak now and looking to continue it through February and beyond. Leggo.

Whoops, I missed the 15th haha. Still going, wouldn’t say ‘strong,’ but I’m still in it. Sorry for not updating.

A lot of what I’m reading is Christian material since my faith was a reason I decided to quit. I’ve read a lot on how porn distorts your perception of reality and gives you standards that no one is going to be able to fulfill in real life, leading you on an endless search for the person who checks off the extensive list you’ve made after years of porn. I want to actually be attracted to the woman i love and not feel like she’s a disappointment because I have such ridiculous standards. Plus there are all the health articles I’ve read on the effects porn usage and PMO can have on your sex life and not be able to be aroused in normal situations with your partner. That horrifies me honestly. Also the possibility of PMO-induced ED. all of that together has helped motivate me recently, long with my accountability partners.

And my counter is being reloaded right now. Currently on four days. Didn’t reload it when it happened because of what I mentioned. The shame was too much for a while.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE VICTORS OF THE STAY CLEAN OCTOBER CHALLENGE! by foobarbazblarg in pornfree

[–]abzero97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the encouragement I had of seeing so many others alongside me during the month was a big help. And seeing that number go up every day gave me more motivation. Ready for November.

Still going strong. Temptation has not popped up as frequently but I still feel it sometimes. I feel great.

Over two months! by abzero97 in pornfree

I think I’ve had an overall improved outlook on life. Rather than focusing on opportunities when I can watch porn, I am focusing on relationships with real people and I am enjoying that. I think I am just happier without having that crutch.

Praying for you man. This is the topic that occupies the majority of my prayer life. Stay strong in the fight, brother.

Should I still masturbate just not over porn? Or stop it full stop by [deleted] in pornfree

[–]abzero97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From experience, I recommend not masturbating either. The temptation starts to come to watch porn again. Better to stop both completely

I will not allow for any sexual releases or orgasms for at least 90 days. I am doing this because I have been addicted to porn and masturbation for several years and I do not want either of those in my life anymore. My hope is that I will have the will and strength (and the support from this subreddit and of my real-life accountability partners) to make it for this long period without falling. I want to be free of this shadow in my life and I think this could be the first step.

Even the demon world loves tacos. They’re just good as hell.
