This is just my opinion, but I dont see the need to reset your counter. You put gf in quotations, is gf a euphemism for something else i am not aware of? Changing your counter to no porn/ no masturbation would be the appropriate choice when recovering in a relationship imo. Anyways, please correct if i am missing out on sth.
I'm on 29 days. Tomorrow, I'll be reaching 30 challenges and I'm gonna be continuing 60 challenges then. So amazing without PMO. Keep positive attitude at work.
Checking in for the night. Feeling alot of anger today and 2xs I reacted privately in a way that would have shamed me publicly. Restarted the 7 day anger fast after about 53 hours of no innapropriate or destructive expression. Later in dealing with my ex I felt alot of anger but was o.k. with how I handled it. I'm starting to believe that anger is my way of dealing with other uncomfortable emotions. It's my default and I need to be free of it in order to get to what's underneath. The way to get free of it is to feel it without Indulging in the angry thoughts that go with it. Be with it until it resolved or disolves. No matter how often it arises or how long it takes. Also to really live in the spirit of the Serenity Prayer. There may be more to it. Anyway this is what I think . Another day pmo and addiction free. Things are surfacing and I'm not running away or hiding. One day at a time.
I promised to introduce some books for building framework for everything in life and view of life. @happysloth And others who are eager to gain good information about the world we living . Here some books I recommend: 1_understanding power by Chomsky 2_science set free by Dr Sheldrake 3_The field by Mactggart 4_people's history of the united states by Howard 5_Foundation Trilogy By Asimov 6_Structure :why things don't fall by Gordon 7_The new world order by Epperson 8_web of debt by Brown 9_Pale blue dot by Sagan 10_Super intelligence by Bostrom
CXLV I don't have much time on my hands, Cap'n, but at least my days are full! I'm grateful for all of life.
Yes I have found there are ways to express yourself, and stand up for yourself when necessary, which don't contribute to all the hostility around us in modern life. What helps me is to recognize that although I am totally justified in being upset, I can still choose to handle the situation in a calm and civil way if possible. We're human, and sometimes emotions boil over, but it's good if our default mode of dealing with conflict can be more measured and thoughtful. I try to give myself some time to take a few deep breaths, gather my thoughts, and form a constructive response instead of just reacting out of pure emotion.
Totally on board. Broke a streak of 381 days in December of 2018. Trying to get back in a big way! Good to be here. (I haven't been able to resent the counter here. It should say ZERO!)
Day 111. My previous longest streak was 110 days, so I'm allowing myself to feel pretty good about this today. However I'm NOT going to fall into the over-confidence trap - I know I have more healing to do. One day at a time my bros.
I am not sure what happened to me. I think got bored and cockly once I passed 365. I need to get back there and just keep going....
I am trying to delete and/or reset my counter. So far it hasn't taken. FapistMonk (it should be 0, as of today)
