Breaking the barriers! Standing strong!

Let me start with a small shoutout to anyboyd who is Ukrainian hereā€¦ If you fear the war and try to avoid it - I honestly hope you guys and your families are doing OK! And if you decided to fight for Your country in the presence of aggression - stand strong and do not give up, your fight is just and I deeply believe you will prevail!

Having said the above, I come back to our small problems related to PMO. Iā€™ve broken the barrier of 200 days and slowly feeling that PMO is not a part of my life anymore. Iā€™m still coming back to this community at times, but the addiction itself is receading further and further. I hope for all of you to fight it off and continue your lives in happiness and freedom.

If you lack motivation, determination, self-confidence, think of this - todayā€™s world is going bonkers all over again. I do not want any of you to deny importance of your problems, but I want you all to look not at the problems you face, but at ways you might be able to help. Perhaps you are near Ukraine and are able to help on site? Perhaps you are far away, but still can join the protests near the embassies of Russia, Belarusia or Ukraine? Perhaps the only thing you can do is become cyber-activist and try to help out by reaching out to Russians, who are drowning in kremlinā€™s propaganda, and make them realize that their president went rogue, basically betraying them by engaging into this cruel unjustified aggression, undermining their national interestsā€¦ Do something! And by being active, prove to yourself You can do something, even if it is very little.

Myself being Polish, Iā€™ve already signed up as a volunteer and I will see what I can do, having good command of English and Polish alike, possibly helping out refugees on siteā€¦ But I wonā€™t sit idly just watching. And neither should you.

I suppose not. This forum wonā€™t let you motivate untill you awake inside. This is managed by self. So you are bound to feel that. There are many legends over here who awakened and free from this PMO.

Hey guys, it seems to me that this thread is going deadā€¦

How many of you are still up to the challenge to keep it up? Still standing strong and willing to lend the hand to all the others that struggle with the addiction? Anyone here willing to share their stories?

For me, itā€™s been already 211 days and Iā€™m confidently headed to a clean year. In the meantime, I suffered several hard times, broke up with my long-time girlfriend, lost two of my grandparents, and I still suffer being a sort of a recluse, trying to reconnect to the society after the COVID shitstorm thatā€™s been happening for quite a while right nowā€¦ It still is happening, Iā€™m not forgetting that, but there are some opportunities to get connected once again.

And all those things, for many of us addicts, might have been an impulse to go back to the addiction. Yeah, relieve yourself, get yourself a decent PMO sessionā€¦
Whatā€™s better?
Youā€™re too stressed, you have to find a way to vent this tensionā€¦
What could be better?
Any of you had similar thoughts in such times? Well, Iā€™ll give you an answer
You know whatā€™s better? Any-fucking-thing!
Keep yourselves busy, help out the world, keep learning. I havenā€™t learnt this much Japanese in centuries and I donā€™t expect to surpass this anytime soon. Iā€™ve been pushing my work very much, fighting off bureaucratic hurdles in several different things.
And you know what?
I donā€™t want to tell you itā€™s all beautiful, it ainā€™t - I also have hard times, a shitton of them. But Iā€™m not using the crutch anymore, and when the good times come back - I know I can enjoy them with all my power, all my power, you hear me guys?

So get out there and do something, I repeat, any-fucking-thing instead of PMO! Keep up the fight, itā€™s worth trying - Iā€™ve been where you are, and I am where you will be! Itā€™s worth all the struggle!

@wall-e brother, Iā€™m not going good at this point but rather tired in trying again and again. What least I can do? stop thinking about it too much. When you realised youā€™re at the position of losing it, The brain/mind needs to get activated and should immediately stop whatever happens in that moment of time
Next stage
When you pass atleast 7 days without peeking, I really donā€™t know how but you get least interested in doing any assigned work and after 2-3 days, you get the clarity, restlessness reduced and willingness to do more and more to keep ourselves busy.
I seriously never thought I could cross day 10 in my life but kept that spirit up and continued.
Now, two things that bumps me on everytime when I go for long streak---->nightfall! Itā€™s disturbing when you realise you canā€™t do anything about it.
----> peeking! This habit is pissing me off.
At the end, I know the flaws, those micro mistakes but what really makes us STRONGER? THE WILLPOWER to which nobody could not agree more to it.
Iā€™ll be restarting my streak from today and I believe that Iā€™ve already lost this time, but after 7,11,13,15,18,21,30,40ā€¦ days
Iā€™ll regret more if I go against my will this time even after reading this. I believe now that I can stand and focus on one thing at a time. No rush, No peeking, Not even a thought to it.

Galatians 6:4
But let each one test his own work and then his reason to boast will be in himself and not in his neighbour.

Amen
Good luck to me and all

Hey @someBody13
Yes I agree, i quit this app like 5 months ago and came back, it seems like the whole forum is not as active as it was sadly. However I am impressed 211 days like wow man you are awesome, but dont get too confident or in another words always stay on guard urges will keep hitting from time to time. As for me I am now at 31 days, things are going good so far. And I hope I could be where you at sometime, keep inspiring even if we dont reply note that we are reading. Best of luck :+1:
