I relapsed after 12 days

I feel like a failure, from day one I promised myself that I would overcome porn and madturbation altogether. But I failed not just myself but Gos. Please give me guidance on how to overcome those urges especially when they hit hard.

When you have urges find something else to focus your mind on.

12 days is actually pretty good. Don’t be ashamed. failure is a big part of the process. You can learn from it. Dust yourself off and keep trying. Change up your environment and the apps you have on your phone so you’re not as tempted.

I think a good first step is to realizing that relapsing is not the end of the world, it’s just a step towards getting better. Next time maybe you make it 20 days, and then after that maybe 40 days, or maybe you quit right of the bat on this next try. The point is that you’re actively trying to get better, and that’s the best you can do.
