Need Ideas to Distract Myself

Day 17

Hey guys. I’m going pretty strong, the longest I’ve ever gone. But recently, life has just been kicking my ass. I’ve had to have two funerals, and I just had to cut off my friend I’ve known since middle school because of his drinking problem and aggression. So, naturally, running back to porn feels like such a good idea. I’ve already slipped up a little, seen some pictures that I actively sought for. I’m slipping. Does anyone have any tips or tricks on not letting go? I don’t ever want to go back to how I was. I used to watch it every single day, sometimes I’d beat off until my meat was raw. It was horrible.

Sorry for your losses Anthony. Pray for strength bro and try to go outside, be in nature, spend time with family, friends and loved ones. Get off your phone. Porn won’t make you feel better, you’ll only feel worse after. Better to feel deprived for a while and after the urge passes, you’ll feel so victorious, rather than to give in and feel horrible after, and you’ll probably end up relapsing more times after that. Try to stay strong brother, trust me the relapse isn’t worth it. Praying for you

Go for a walk whenever you’re tempted

Hey man. Sorry to hear about the losses you’ve been through. What I would suggest is just continue to improve on yourself and continue to find the beautiful value of life.
