2 weeks abstained from PMO

At a time of going through a break up this hasn’t been easy coz I’ve been very lonely and addicted basically to dating apps which has made this hard. But two weeks of abstinence. At one point I had a year. It’s a nefarious addiction this one.

With my bad habits I keep notes on my phone to remind me what makes me unhappy about my behaviour. That way I can refer to them when my brain is trying to trick me. Hang in there. :+1::+1:

PS- I went through a phase of this too. I just managed to break the cycle by finding other things to excite my mind. Nothing wrong with M but the P bit bothered me and I just kept reminding myself that P made me feel bad after. Keep going.

23 days very heightened emotions.

24 days after a few days of rocky emotions had an incredibly balanced day! No loneliness, no pangs of emotion. A bit tired and bleh but great otherwise. Went for a hunt and a walk, walked the dog.

26 days had a thought of relapse but had a conversation about it with myself. Realising even music can be an influence of my thinking. I think I knew that but it’s coming back to me. Feelings of loneliness and depression diminishing but am spending a lot of time in nature and with family while on holidays.
