I’ve relapsed once in 15 days yall. I haven’t done this in… forever. I feel strong and capable!! I’ve found that it isn’t about focusing on not masturbating, it’s about focusing on living a good life, one where you’re in control. That has helped me immensely.
That’s a great way to look at it, man! Through all my “failures” over the years, I’ve realized that it’s all paved the road to escape from addiction. I’ve tracked my days for a while and noticed that I give in 75% less than I used to when I had a hopeless mentality. That’s growth, even if I haven’t crossed the finish line yet. You’re doing great and that mentality will take you so far.
