Welp 14 Days Back To 0
14 days strong, gone…just like that. Progress over perfection tho. It was my longest streak ever, confident I’ll be able to reach it again and surpass it this time. Everytime I PMO now it doesn’t even feel good besides the dopamine hit, and the post nut clarity sets instantly. That’s growth I suppose. But also been realizing motivation only goes so far and it’s super important to have systems in place to avoid fucking up the goal when the urges get loud and feel almost impossible to resist. What emotional pains & traumas are you hiding/using to numb via your PMO addiction? Find that cause and try other healthy ways & systems to relieve yourself. One day, the desire to PMO will disappear. Unfortunately, today was not that day for me, and even tho I got 14 days without it, the journey is going to be very long and difficult. One blip on the radar is how I’ll look at tonight. End rant/ramble.
A streak is nothing more than another tool to keep you on track. Everything you say here is right - find the triggers, put in place systems to nullify them and deal with the pain that drives it all. Deep breath and go again.
