You are a real inspiration. Following your daily pots is witnessing how someone crawls from the depths of despair and illness to a bright airy and comfortable life. Iyh you will guide others out of this mess to life. You are showing everyone that it can be done.

I appreciate the kind words.  I still have a ton of work, but iy"h I'll be able to get out of this.

Day #27

@lionking
Basically right now I'm focusing on not watching any pornography (that breaks the streak) and trying my best to get rid of imagery.  For more details see the first day of this "streak".  For what it's worth, many people weren't happy with this idea so this isn't me advocating anything, just me recording stuff.  I felt like I got most of my major thoughts out there already and now I'm just trying to keep myself accountable.  If I have a reason to go into more detail I definitely will.

B"h shabbos was good.  I'm almost at a week with no masturbation, but it feels so strange that it was almost effortless.  I just never felt a need for it.  This is definitely my biggest streak without a real effort put into fighting it directly (I have gone longer in other "counts"). Hashem definitely helped me out here.  Iy"h it will continue.

See everyone tomorrow!

Gut Voch,
I appreciate your share. I wish you much Hatzlocha.
I was just wondering if you have a plan for when the going gets tough. I've had also tons of times long stretches were it was extremely effortless, however when the road went uphill, my truck stalled. I hope you have a great transmission in place to pull you through those bumps in the road.
Keep up your great work!

I'm four weeks in!  The lack of porn makes such a big difference to my life.  I haven't lusted in a while because of it and the clarity that I got because of it is really wonderful.

See everyone tomorrow!

B"h things are still good.  I was even home by myself for a while which is usually a trigger, but I was careful to not let anything get started.  Thankfully Hashem helped me.

See everyone tomorrow!

Day #30

I made it a month porn free! That's pretty exciting for me and it's probably my record for about 15 years. I feel pretty excited about it and feel like I can make it all the way. 

See everyone tomorrow!

Day #32

I was home alone and ended up masturbating. I didn't give in to porn though.  I gave in a little bit and then I got carried away.  I need to work on that little bit.

See everyone tomorrow!

Day #34

I've been good yesterday and today. B"h the fall wasn't too bad and I got over it pretty quickly.

See everyone tomorrow!

Day #35

I'm at five weeks.  B"h I've been clean and still feel good about this.  It's interesting to me that my fall from a few days ago wasn't nearly as bad as it has been in the past.  Before, after I would fall, that would be it.  Here, there were still boundaries that weren't crossed (watching pornography) which made the "give up everything" time much quicker to pass by.  

See everyone tomorrow!

Day #36

B"h things are going well. Today I was looking at some stuff that I shouldn't have been looking at (not porn) which, for me, always means that it will end up going to masturbation. Hashem helped me to stop though and to realize that I don't NEED to masturbate even if it felt that way. B"h I was able to stop without anything happening. 

See everyone tomorrow!
