Day 6

One week

It’s been one week and I am feeling really good. This is the first app that I’ve tried where the content restriction is actually working. My biggest trigger is at night before bed. Just laying down, my old habit begins tempting me. This week I’ve been able to toss my phone across the room and leave it there. To help distract and recenter my thoughts, I picked up a Book I’ve have for five years and am actually reading it and almost finished! Continued reminders of why I want to stop for good have been my rock as well.

Be a soldier NOT a gooner

Porn seems harmless until you try to stop. Then you realize it was an addiction. A porn-free life is possible! Don’t let your mind make you think otherwise. Keep fighting the good fight boys! 🫔 FUCK PORN!

How to avoid gooning.

Be so busy that you literally don’t have time to goon. When your laying there in bed so tired just go to sleep. The urge to goon while being tired asf is a very strong. Trust me if you just go to sleep it gives you that same mental clarity that you get after gooning

The dreams are crazy

Around 22 days since I’ve watched porn. Dreams are so much more vibrant which is interesting. Like there is a clear difference before and after. Most dreams are sexual dreams which is not appreciated but that being said there is a clear difference. I would assume it’s to do with dopamine. Since it’s being spent less on PMO

Day 2

Urges!

Can’t seem to get past a few days. I’m 2 days in and hoping I’m done with porn. I’m ready to put it in the past. I’m struggling with triggers. Social media, scrolling TikTok, or just watching movies. A couple people mentioned push ups. I’m way out of shape but I’m gonna start doing it. I’m going for it.

Relapsed

This is tough man, I relapsed. I gave into the stress for a temporary bit of relief… The signs where there I was having a lot of stress and looking for an escape, I need to be aware of this next time and find an alternative solution Disappointed, but I will pick myself up quickly and start again.

Huge setback

So, I’m the guy that came on here a few days ago and found out my partner was pregnant. Well 3 days ago we found out she had miscarried. It really has been a tough few days, and as a result I fell straight back into the porn trap as a coping mechanism. I live in the U.K. so I’ve even gone to the lengths of downloading a VPN to avoid the new anti-porn laws. I’ve picked myself up from the miscarriage, but now is the time to re-focus and get away from porn for good.

Day 1

Life.

I’ve been having problems, my whole life I’ve had this addiction since I was as young as 13 it led me down a dark path and since I had sex at a young age I always correlated sex to love. So to love someone is to have sex with said person.which leads into now my birthday was last week I turned 21 and I’ve been married for a little under a year, at first I kept it a secret but multiple times within my relationship it was discovered and she told me how disgusting it is to her, asking questions like why can’t I just have eyes for her, and saying I can’t love her whilst doing this. This is her 3rd time catching me and at first she wanted to help me heal found me this app and have been with me every step of the way but after last night i think my marriage is over she can’t take anymore of this. My lust over women is my downfall and she’s so heavy on the subject she will leave me. I’m lost. Tried explaining to her how I feel about all of it how it’s just a release it’s not a fantasy of cheating or wanting other women but that just doesn’t help. I love my wife and I want to be with her i just am lost on how to get better I tried many times and don’t know why I relapse. I think it’s to late to get better

Day 31 + Escape Plan

Urges and traps are still present but pressing forward. Escape Plan: If temptation hits: step away, pray out loud, text someone, do something active, refocus on your ā€œwhy.ā€ You don’t fight alone.

Day 10 feeling great but urges

More energy, focus and clarity. Urges are so strong though where I’m convincing myself I’m missing out by not capitalising on being so horny after these long streaks. Benefits vs the massively increased sex drive is hard
