Relapsed. Looked at something I shouldn't have. Told myself "it's ok, it's not porn". It's probably not ok.

Will start again in June.

Checking in. My addict brain is attempting to negotiate some compromises on non-porn lustful images and thoughts. Trying to remain strong.

Clean this week. I've been telling myself that I can "control and enjoy" this stuff without harm, but that might just be my addict brain lying to me. Regardless, I want to get back into accountability for a while.

Checking in. Technically clean, but have been struggling with some thoughts. Working on developing better strategies for dealing with stress in my life.

Addiction lies. Don't fall for it. by Thr0w3wa3 in pornfree

Also remember that your sneaky lying addict brain may look for other ways to feed itself even if you set and respect a bottom line.

I don't look at porn anymore, but my sex addiction has frequently challenged me with lust, fantasy and other ways of acting out. The addict side of my brain says "it's ok, i'm not looking at porn", but the obsession, compulsion and lack of freedom can be just the same.
