Hey guys, I hope youre doing well and your journey is great. I just lost to this shit again. I keep thinking ‚just this one time, why does it matter‘. I really need help to fight against these thoughts, can someone give me an advice.

Hey man, I’ve been exactly where you are, and I know how heavy it can feel right after a relapse. First off—don’t let shame take the wheel. You didn’t “fail,” you learned. That voice in your head that said, “just this once” is part of the addiction, not your truth. Now that you’ve seen how it talks to you, you can start building a plan for how to handle it next time. Here’s something that helped me: when those thoughts come up, don’t argue with them—acknowledge and redirect. Like: “Yeah, I hear you saying it’s just once. But I know how I feel after, and I don’t want that.” Then get up, move, do anything that changes your physical state—go for a walk, take a cold shower, call someone. The goal is to break the autopilot. Also, write down what triggered this relapse. Was it boredom? Stress? Being alone too long? Next time, when you feel those same conditions brewing, you’ll know you’re entering a danger zone—and you’ll have a chance to act early instead of react late. And most importantly, don’t isolate yourself. You’re not alone in this. Everyone here gets it. You’re not broken—you’re human, and you’re trying. Keep fighting. Each time you come back stronger, and that’s what matters.

This advice has worked for me. Maybe it will work for you. Sometimes will power alone isnt enough. I work long hrs. That way i cant jerk off. Then i gym after work. After that its already late. Thats when its hardest but atleast i cut out most of the day. On weekends i spend time eith my family or my girlfriend. If you cant just be out in public. Make it hard on yourself to be alone. That way its harder to relaspe
