complete reset, things I learned from last time

I relapsed today after a 10 day streak, which is over double what I've achieved before using this app and properly dedicating myself. For anyone else in a similar position, here's what I learnt from last time as I head into attempt NO2. 1. avoiding temptations. anything you can control, control it. I don't have any social media, but I found that the strongest temptations where when I was gaming by myself. get in a call with some friends if you're gonna game! watching films n stuff with my parents rather than by myself helped a lot too. 2. dont have your phone on hand when you wake up. this applies to everyday life outside of quitting this addiction too. today was the first day on this journey that I didn't put my phone downstairs before I slept, and as a result I had an insanely lazy morning with no motivation to do anything and it lead my down the rabbit whole to relapsing! You don't have to have a crazy action packed day every day to distract yourself, but if you're having a chill day stay productive. 3. create good habits, and some healthy forms of dopamine. I don't have many hobbies, so I decided to take up running as I am not in my desirable shape. it helped so much, and I'm already seeing huge improvements in fitness. 4. porn is the enemy at all costs. I am not doing no fap, although it is a goal of mine to cut down as much as possible which I was and still am succeeding in. I masturbated 4 times over the 10 day streak and I had almost no guilt after the fact as I wasn't using porn. when I relapsed today, I felt like shit and it reminded me how horrible it feels to be a porn addict. going into a fresh start, I'm going to get a porn blocker on my computer and phone and get my mum to make the disable password so I don't have the choice to disable it until I'm finished. My question to you guys, what are the best free/ not crazy expensive porn blockers for android phones and windows 11? if I could get some recommendations that would help loads. thanks guys, stay strong

Seeing your commitment man you’re destined for success. I do not know you but I am proud of you. Keep stacking the every day wins and as long as you turn those losses to lessons you will never be defeated. Keep up the good work brother.
