I was doing pretty good, got to 22days and was feeling pretty good then I relapsed and I’ve been doing it constantly since, I feel like allowing myself to masturbate is making this a lot worse cause once I’m going that’s it I just spiral. Hope your all doing better than me right now
I know for me a big trigger of wanting to relapse comes from the shame of failure. We have to understand that relapse doesn’t mean all of the work so far disappears. A stumble along the journey is bound to happen, what matters is how you react to it and move forward. Shame feeds that spiral, so you have to be careful about letting yourself feel like a complete failure. I know it’s hard, I don’t have all the answers but this thinking has helped me move past relapses. Hope it helps, you got this 🤘
