What do you guys think about the timer

I’m a little conflicted about the timer resetting all of progress we’ve made and the little tree going away. I’ve been free from porn for about 2 months and I just fell and I just want to know where I actually am at
You’re right. Recovery is not linear, it is a lot more like 2 steps forward, 1 step back. Sometimes 3 steps back but then making 5 steps forward again. Don’t take the timer as the gauge on your progress, use the reasons thing like a journal. Every time you beat the urges, or resist successfully, document your mental state there, why you were successful, why it is important for you to recover, etc. And reflect on that, even if you get relapses.
