“Passive” viewing.

Day 1

Hey everybody. I’m on day one here, about to hit 24 hours. I wanted to see what everyone else does when they “come across” something on their normal timeline or home page on social media. I won’t go into detail but i was just scrolling and came across a somewhat explicit video, (pretty lightweight since it was on the front page) but i did watch the full thing. I didn’t *do* anything about it, if you catch my drift. But really I’m wondering if I should reset my streak since I didn’t stop watching and decided to watch the full thing (about 2 min long), regardless of wether I took any action toward it.

Nah bro it is not good, every time you remove a boundary you’re that much closer to relapsing the next time. You have to set the bar higher and higher and not ‘sneak things in’ that will trigger a relapse. Even if you don’t O, watching the pron spikes your dopamine levels which will only make the addict hungrier U got this. Dont give in

I did something similar today - I reset my streak. I looked at it with lust and still watched the whole thing. I felt better by resetting and learning from the experience. I’ve deleted Instagram now.

I think it’s ultimately whatever you set the bar at, for me personally it’s going on to the 🌽 site, if I falter for a couple of seconds but recover I think that shows strength rather than failure, just my opinion though
