Fighting urges
Day 21

Seems like 14-20 days is a tough milestone. Did pretty solo even to 18 but urges were creeping in around 14. Day 18 was the toughest. Like I know the feelings afterwards but just didn’t care. Can’t really talk to the wife about it either. Life kind of adds to it. I felt hey at least I have the wife and can work on healthy resolutions. But she went on a week and a half vacation. So fighting urges. Feeling rejected (just a busy season without a lot of intimacy) and now in home alone for a week plus.
Paul, I Feel you. My wife is on vacation too and I often too feel rejected a lot as she is not as active as I am sexually. When you are alone, fight the urges head on. Question yourself and reflect on WHY you are feeling the way you are. It’s easier said than done to just “be busy” and I honestly believe that the more battles you win in times of weakness work better than just being busy all the time. Stay strong, stay mindful, and be patient with yourself.
