On the way home, had a thought about looking at porn (my DOC) when I got home. Looked at my timer to see how long it had been and I had just hit 14 days! Two weeks is the longest I’ve ever managed to go!
Looking at the timer at various times has been frustrating, difficult, and sometimes inspiring for me, but between it and these forums, I’m still on track.
Though I did have to laugh a little since the quotation for the day used the word “friction,” which for a chronic masturbator…
This was four days ago. I’ve been through several days without a craving, and I’m getting hit like a brick with one today. Of course, all my triggers - bored, alone, frustrated.
Right now, I’m going to try this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4sfbciCr24
Dont allow your addiction to trick you, phone a friend, work out, go be creative in the kitchen, anything, be strong, you can get through this… good luck and god bless… just dont allow yourself to much boredom time, thats when ur addiction loves to attack your mind…
Lol @ friction. I feel you. You know it feels so good to have someone who knows how I feel. I’m glad you didn’t give in. When you’re bored, alone, frustrated, how about getting up getting your hands dirty. Could be dirt from a flower pot, play dough,hello, idk. It’s just a random thought,but maybe if your hands get busy doing other things,it might help.
So, as difficult as that was, I made it through the day. Glad to see day 19 on the calendar.
Good job staying strong! 
I feel like looking at my timer is inspiring and irritating at the same time. Every time I look, I’m like wow, I gone x amount of time without a single drink, that’s wonderful (in a half hour it will be 4 days) but at the same time I’m like time is going by so slowly!!! Has it really only been 4 days! So it’s like a double edge sword sometimes.
I’m so happy to hear that Iggy… Mind if I call you Iggy? Lol
If it’s good enough for Iggy Pop, it’s good enough for me.
