Calm Before the Storm
Day 10 and I have no urges. Definitely on alert that I will get triggered and will have to battle these demons.
3 days 15 hours
Tried so many times and today the first time i feel more and more controlled over it, i know this time it‘s different. 1st target are 7 days, i‘m doin this for Jesus
4 days clean
Finally, after relapse after relapse, I'm 4 days clean! Partly because I've been so busy with finals but I want to ride this high and use it to stay clean!!
Darth Vader of Women - Don’t be Fooled
On Twitter/X today, a post about a woman who was a porn recovery Coach for years, had a YouTube channel. Now she is an Onlyfans creator and made a video explaining why. She pretty much said there is a lot of negative talk about porn and sex, and that you should be able to express those feelings however you please. (She doesn’t mention this but I’m sure $ money played a big factor lol). So she’s dubbed the female version of Darth Vader. So my curious fleshly brain said I had to check this out. I click her YouTube, go to her OF, (I’ve never had an OF account so all images were blocked/censored. Then I typed in Google her name _ OF. It blurred the leaked adult content images and I was one click away. Realizing how dumb I was I closed the page I was on and reflected. It is so easy to give into these temptations. One click away at our finger tips is dangerous. I’ll try to put more focus and attention on my discipline and self control. The Devil didn’t get me today. Don’t be fooled. Stay Strong. God Bless!
Days don’t determine how hard it is. Your focus does
I find myself unfocused, allowing my brain to hold onto lust. And not asking god for help. I think something that probably happens to people as they get further in is their ego gets higher and they begin to feel unstoppable. Anybody is susceptible at anytime. It doesn’t matter whether you have gone far or not. It’s all you and the way you continue to think and they paths you allow your brain to take. Anybody can fall at any moment. Keep focused brothers. Avoid lust like it’s the devil.
I can’t get past day 3
I tried to quit multiple times but every time I do I relapse on the third day every time
It’s not “You vs. Yourself”
Everyone on here is in a battle for control in all aspects of their lives. But we all share a common enemy we are fighting: porn addiction. It isn’t a foe that you can barter with, or appease. “Just one more time” “I’ll space out when I relapse until I don’t have urges”. No. That doesn’t work. There is no agreement we can come to with this beast. The only way to be rid of it to be brazenly defiant. It’s not you vs. yourself. It’s you vs. control. Don’t lose.
How do I quit?
I’ve tried nearly everything by and I was going strong for a while just started long distance with my girlfriend and idk it seems like everyday just makes it harder and harder to quit.
New bar
Back at the spot I gave in last week. Odd how much mentally I’ve changed in these short two weeks. My mood is in a weird place, got a lot of free time and just tryna to avoid being stuck in the cycles of dopamine pursuit. Putting my newfound energy to work for the most part and staying busy though.
Day 2/30
I’m feeling kinda the same just still replacing bad habits with new one, but going strong
Refresh after a bender
4 days sober after a week long bender that broke a 21 day streak, the urges are always there, for me it’s just making sure to get myself through them, and keeping away from my triggers
Leaderboard
Hoe am i going back in rankings? It should either remain constant or move ahead whenever anyone relapses right?
relapse as sex
do u count finishing by wanking when having sex as relapse?
40!
Almost halfway 🙏
Weird Question
This is gonna sound so weird but does any of you guys experience intense urges when really you just have to go pee?
A small success
Had my first strong temptation in 8 days. Took a deep breath and decided I wanted to work on a project instead. I made it tough boys👊🏻 First week under my belt, LETS GO!
Day one done
I’ve been able to stay pretty busy. Working out seems to help. Shit, I’ll workout right now lol ✌🏾✌🏾✌🏾
Looking for ideas
Does anyone have any ideas on what to do when the urge hits. I found myself feeling tempted or getting an urge and I want to replace that feeling with either an exercise or a way of thinking. Does anyone have any ideas on something I could implement to kind of distract my mind and get away from the urge?
relationship guilt
took me over 1200 days to finally snap out of my chronic need for dopamine, this girl is truly a fucking angel and it took me 1200 days to finally tell myself just because i’m not physically doing anything with another woman it’s still disloyal. i’m done, super done been done for awhile honestly, i had a relapse somewhat recently but fuck that shit i don’t and can’t lose this one because i probably can’t live with myself if i do, genuinely. sorry fellas i needed to vent hopefully i can swallow this and keep going. she knows the porn addiction and the extent i’ve virtually spoken to other women in ways i shouldn’t, doesn’t know 100% but i think her knowing 100% would do nothing but ruin everything, idk sorry for the long message if anyone actually reads all this lol
I relapsed
I feel so fucking tired just got 60 days without porn and then i relapsed. Its so exhausting falling for this trap over and over again
