Are you ready to go to any length ,and for me i had to being honest,open, and willing. Also i learned from the AA fellowship and by doing the steps with a sponsor that i could not rely on my own will power . I wish you well on your journey. #wedorecover

Welcome to the community.
It will always wear off, people like us need a whol lot more.
My first piece of advice…get real active here. Read, then read some more.

If you feel like willpower wears off, you need better tools for maintaining it daily. You can’t make a decision to abstain one day and expect it to last forever. The decision and the work happens daily. Take a spin through the posts here- people have shared tons of tools and resources that work for them. For me, it’s waking up everyday and making the decision to stay sober all over again like it’s brand new.

Do you want to remain sober? And if so are you willing to go through any length?
-The previous few days before relapsing I had strong urges to rub one out but I refrained and controlled myself. Then I gave in on the last day cause I told myself that I had stopped caring.

because wanking causes poor memory, loss in self esteem and moodiness

I downloaded a porn blocker on my phone but I used my laptop to jack off

I’m willing to fight strong urges and give up short term gratification for a potentially more fulfilling life
