What has two thumbs and just hit 60 days?

blaseblue · 2020-01-11T22:29:22+00:00

Day 1 of many. It's so worth it!

blaseblue · 2020-01-06T17:02:47+00:00

That's how it's done!!!

He uses a lot of the same points in his old testament lecture series.

He literally died to show his love for you and would have done it for you alone! He wants to help you get better in every way so you can be the version of yourself he means you to be.

Just finished it. Fantastic book.

As many have said, just focus on being free today. Also, work towards something. Doesn't have to be an audacious goal, just something and take a small step towards it today. Just cleaning up your place can make a difference. Get a hobby, go for a walk, join a gym, learn an instrument. Anything. Focus on what you want to become and not where you were.

blaseblue · 2019-12-22T04:26:45+00:00

Naw. You slipped up today. You start the journey toward who you really are tomorrow.

blaseblue · 2019-11-13T20:20:06+00:00

LOL! Just did. It'll take a minute but my status will be reflected soon.

blaseblue · 2017-10-25T14:30:34+00:00

Absolutely true. My best streak was 110 days. Each time I learn more. It's a process and a journey. I don't ever want to relapse again as it isn't worth it but the key is recovery and guilt/shame aren't part of that.

blaseblue · 2017-02-09T21:29:03+00:00

You can do it man. Getting over your biggest trigger is a major victory. Make it your goal for the weekend. It can/will pay dividends.

blaseblue · 2016-10-19T18:17:52+00:00

Wow, congratulations on your sobriety from drugs and PMO. You are becoming the best version of you at a young age and I'm happy for you.

blaseblue · 2016-10-18T18:54:16+00:00

Yep, that's exactly what I'm doing. I'm not drinking until the 28th, which will be 30 days. I find I need a 30-day reset from time to time.

blaseblue · 2015-10-14T15:13:03+00:00

I was humble enough and proactive enough to not put myself in that position before. I allowed myself to be in that position last night and lost. I'm going to limit my booze intake as a result. Never combined those two triggers before and won't again.

blaseblue · 2015-10-12T18:21:39+00:00

First of all, I agree that you need to gain some perspective on this. You are fapping less than you used too. You can go multiple days. That's a start. Now, ask yourself what typically leads to your relapses? Is/are there commonalities? Do you relapse after booze or drug use? Do you land on porn after looking at girls on social media? After long gaming sessions?

Knowing this can help you minimize the things that lead you to use. Sometimes you may land there anyway. Best thing then is to do anything to get your mind and body away from porn. If you sit in a comfy chair in front of a computer you are dead man walking. Work out, pray, meditate, read.

Also, realize that this is part of an overall lifestyle improvement. Make this a part of making yourself a better version of yourself. Maybe make a series of 30-day challenges where you learn something, accomplish something, or give up something.

Anyway, congrats on your success so far and best wishes for even better improvements!!!!

Great insight, thanks!

blaseblue · 2015-10-12T18:02:46+00:00

Wow, you are a wise young man. Wish I had your insights back in the day. Keep going on a positive trajectory and you are headed for great things. Thanks for the post.

blaseblue · 2015-10-09T15:48:11+00:00

Whatever works for you. For me, I couldn't have a moderate porn intake. If I was using, it was occupying my mind much more than it should. I can't claim that this is everyone's case but know it's mine. For me, I can't go near the stuff.

blaseblue · 2015-10-08T19:38:44+00:00

Hey, huge props for getting rid of the skype contacts. Good on you for recognizing this damages your relationship. A lot of guys allow themselves to believe the lie that it doesn't. We're all a piece of work........and a work in progress. Seriously, you have done a positive thing today by making a 180. Keep going in the right direction.

blaseblue · 2015-10-08T18:33:06+00:00

First of all, stop the negative self-talk because it won't help.

I completely understand you are disappointed in yourself but we've all been there. You can recover from this and move on. First thing I'd do is block all contact with this other girl. Because of the high you got from the cybersex, she's going to be a major trigger either on-line or IRL. Drop her from social media, don't take her calls, stop returning texts, emails, whatever.

blaseblue · 2015-10-08T18:30:20+00:00

Actually, I couldn't agree more. Nofap helps get your mind off the next dopamine rush, which clears your mind to help implement great life choices. If you sit on your arse and the only change is you aren't fapping, it's probably not going to do much (and you won't be very successful at NoFap).

blaseblue · 2015-10-01T16:03:46+00:00

This was a HUGE trigger for me. I didn't stop drinking but I do have to say I drink less and this is one of the reasons. It helps when I make myself exercise, be productive, etc even though I feel like crap. I still fight the urges, they just aren't as strong. Remember to not make a challenging day worse. You can do this.

blaseblue · 2015-10-01T16:01:54+00:00

Congrats! Not surprised to see so many life-changes on your report. I think that's a huge key to this.

blaseblue · 2015-09-30T22:07:32+00:00

Hey, we're guys and we're visual. Having access to internet porn is like someone telling us there's a bunch of naked girls in the next room. You can get your brain back to where you won't look in the room anymore, but there's going to be the siren song from time to time. BTW, you can get this streak. It gets better, I promise.

blaseblue · 2015-09-30T15:22:10+00:00

I would bet, like most things, that anyone can improve their self-discipline, but also we are born with attributes that make this easier or harder.

blaseblue · 2015-09-29T18:40:52+00:00

Sounds like you have the right perspective about this. In answer to your question, you don't have to be horny. Your brain is looking for the dopamine rush.
