I've realized very recently that I needed to limit exposure to certain thinks that could tempt you to relapse. Like blocking websites, deleting all social media from yourphone would be a good start. Also you would need to be careful of certain new apps out there. I downloaded a app to try and meet new people but got caught in temptation when one girl came on to me hard. I fell today as well. Lasted 7 days…….that was my new record compared to only 1 day. Keep fighting the good fight. Pray to our Lord Jesus because he wants us to succeed! You go this! Take it one step at a time and when we fall we get back up until we meet our goal. I believe in you and so does everyone else on this app.
focus on thinking about how you will feel once you do it, remember this feeling of disappointment within yourself that you feel after every time. Recognize that you don’t want to feel like that anymore and the only way of avoiding it is not doing it. Even when your about to do it and you say to yourself “I don’t care how i will feel after, i just want to feel it again” that is you lying to yourself and you gotta push past that. Once you avoid this for about 2-3 weeks i promise you will become unstoppable.
