I voted the 3rd one "thoughts/fantasies, although mostly just thoughts, and just as R' Cordnoy suggested it's more an issue with yechidim.

It used to be for me the forth "M" but I haven't even come close to that in a while B"H Hashem should help further.

My second would be "trigger happy on the computer" although not to xxx sites but to places that have a 10% chance that there might be somthin'.

As far as the first choice, I B"H have no problem on the streets, I take off my glasses, look at the ground while walking and getting out of the way of potential problems.

I'm thinking of changing my vote - it's been swinging between 2, so for the next 2 months I'll change it to the 2nd

I changed my vote to thoughts/fantasies, it's been what I have been struggling with the most for the past while.

I refuse to vote! I need to choose more then one option. Even in the presidential election you can choose a vice. Maybe the poll could be 'what is our biggest concern 1st place and 2nd', or just choose all that apply.
BIG SHOT!
Free Choice?!

So you admit there's a president, and that was the question

ok fine, so I voted for president problem today. But I plan on changing it soon. unlike our other president, I don't think that this one will stay the same for four years (or even four days). But where is the 'change your vote' button?

I voted "Thoughts/Fantasies", but would have co-listed "Eyes Wanderin' in Street" (and maybe also reversed the two) had we been allowed to vote for more than one.

Not intending to seem overly-confident Chas veShalom, but -- maybe because of my 180-day streak today -- I currently feel that my decision to forever stop with both "M" and with Internet-porn ("Trigger-Happy-Finger on Computer") is so "rock solid" that these are simply not options.

And thus practically, most of my effort now is on trying to control:
  1. ​my thoughts and fantasies: for now. I've been very successful with not actively indulging such thought, or with forcibly kicking them out whenever they try popping in , B"H. (And this is because it is so clear to me that indulging such thoughts can so easily trigger "acting out.")
  2. "Eyes Wanderin' in Street": I've been pretty good at "looking away" fairly quickly when suddenly seeing a pretty face or body, and I'm also doing my best to avoid intentionally looking in the first place. But I feel that I still need more work in this area.

With that, I wouldn't define my understanding that I need to be constantly vigilant in these areas as "worry."
I invite you to follow:

Halevay veiter.

My decision to forever stop was.....oops, I actually never made such a decision. I know that would be a big fat lie. I made it for today. Thank God I have been makin' that decision every day for quite some time now.
