Death to the Counter

Yep. Social media is a trap. And I know EXACTLY how you feel with the streak. Last time I ran into some stuff on social media I scrolled and searched for awhile to where I felt I should reset my counter, even though it wasn’t explicit porn. But as soon as I reset it, it’s like I felt a license to go and view again and immediately fell back. But, now that I know that, I can reset it and be ready for that thought when it appears. At the end of the day, it’s your journey. The counter is a tool, it should help you. It’s not your master, you’re the one in the arena, make sure you’re using it the way that works best for you.

Delete the apps man. It is a life changer in more ways than just getting rid of suggestive material.

You will lose sense of how long your streak is if you don’t reset it. You said you had the longest streak you ever had yet you still relapsed despite the higher threshold to say no. Ultimately, you’ve got to free yourself from this porn problem. And the only way to do that is to be honest with yourself. The counter is there not just for tracking, but for accountability. Delete the apps. It’s the only way. If you don’t have an online business or some similar reason for why you must have social media, consider yourself lucky and delete them asap

Yeah I know I need to get rid of social media. Just so hard man

It’s your journey. For me personally I had to get rid of insta and all social media. That also helps your brain not crave these instant dopamine hits. If that helps you then do it but don’t cheat yourself
