Congratulations @Aceveteran !!! Keep up the good fight! Wish I were as strong as yall. Im new here and also struggle with porn addiction. Its a new addiction for me. Only recognized it as an issue about a year ago and since have tried very hard to limit and remove porn from my life. Best of luck on the days to come!
I crashed hard and had to reset twice this week furthest Ive gotten has been 6 daysā¦ this is super hard to beat
@FollowtheHare I understand your feelings. It can be difficult to stop. One thing I do is to avoid my triggers but sometimes sexual content just shows up unexpectedly and then the urge stirs up. What keeps me from not watching porn and masturabting is the success stories Iāve read on thithis forum. I draw strength form their stories and I believe God will help me get through that moment. Its Day 23 for me.
Awesome job on day 23!! Iāve defnetly recognized my triggersā¦the one Iām having the hardest time with is boredomā¦as long as I keep busy I donāt have urges 2 days down
Hola compaƱeroā¦
Yo tambien llevo luchando por aƱos con este flagelo. He intentado de muchas maneras, pero no he podido.
pero tengo una confianza muy grande, que con la ayuda de toda esta comunidad que padecemos lo mismo, si lo voy a lograrā¦ayer complete mi primera semana de sobriedad, y el reloj seguira contando.
Un abrazo, y mucha fortaleza que tu tambien lo puedes lograr.
yo tambiĆ©n he sufrido mucho a causa del porno y la masturbaciĆ³n, mil lagrimas he derramado por su culpaā¦pero se que con la compaƱĆa y respaldo de esta linda comunidad lo voy a lograrā¦un abrazo y gracias por compartir
@Jofregucas Iām not sure if you have any English, but I Google Translated your posts, and you have our support, too! Thanks for the love.
Iāve reset several times recently, and am now 26 hours free. I got sucked into a trap of āethical porn,ā and then found myself right back at my old favorite porn site again a couple days later. Moderation and escalation are a thing, beware.
Anyway, glad to be back on the wagon. Trying to beat my prior 31-day record!
Thank you very much for your greeting, and for your words of encouragement. I would like to get in touch with you so that you share my experience of recovery, I just start and I need a lot of advice. Good night and a hug.
Weāve all been there. The most important part is not quitting never give up brother this does not define you. Just get back on the horse and keep running! yeah you reset big deal. You will beat this itās not about the number itās about the mindset.
Hey @Jofregucas, feel free to direct message me here, but thatās as far out of anonymity as Iām going. Itās not personal, but Iām in the midst of a job search, and the type of work I do tends to put me in the public eye, so I canāt really risk exposure.
ok Ignacioā¦De donde eres, cuantos aƱos llevas en esta lucha?
Iāve been alcohol free for five years, now trying to get free of porn, which according to the app, Iāve managed for just shy of six days.
I think it is worth watching, for those struggling with it.
Excelente, bien por ese progreso con el alcohol, y ten la seguridad que tambiƩn lo lograras con el porno venceras
Iām starting my 1st day sober. Been married 17 years and have kept it hidden. I will pray for yāall and please pray for me
Iām not the praying type, but Iāll tell you what - if you want advice, help, or anything I can offer, please feel free to ask. Just tag me in a post and Iāll get an email notification.
I really appreciate it. I will probably take advantage of it.
Please do.
Iāll pray for you, I know itās hard. Howās the journey going so far?
I relapsed after a week but have been good since then. Just taking it day by day. On my days off I make sure I have plenty of projects to keep me occupied
