Starting to read easy peasy

General Discussion

I started last night reading easy peasy.

At chapter 4 now and needed a break.

I’m trying to read through it.

I still feel a little stubborn, but willing to try to use this book to fund a solution.

I have only started reading chapter 4.

In a separate topic, when I do complete 2 days, I go through a different cycle.

Sure the original cycle is temptation, lust, relapse, shame.

If I go 2 days past shame, temptation and lust return, but if I defeat that, then I feel anxiety like I do now.

Anxiety has become part of my healing and I hate this part more than the shame.

as it says in the book jsut go ahead and do your routine for now :wink:
and be kind to yourself mate.
regarding the anxiety it mighty be a part of the flatline… as in the flat line might cause the anxiety since it is a realy uncomfortable feeling

I will continue to read.

I just relapsed because the anxiety led me to images and a site.

Does this book really work?

well , it works if you want it to work xD that is the beauti of it :wink: it shows you why you are attached to PMO amd it also elaborates why you are hooked to PMO despite all the bad consequnces you are alkready aware off :slight_smile:
it gets you to the point where you keenly understand whether you want to quit or not and how to go about quitting :slight_smile:

it explains how the process can be enjoyable and easy :slight_smile:

but it also explains how and when it does not work !
basically if you do not follow the instructions or if you ever deside to go back to PMO :slight_smile: it definetly helps since oyu will get mroe knwoledge and uderstadnig about yourself adn the addiction!

The book is very detailed and slow for me to get through.

I find it like a calm mentor who does not judge or cause negative feelings. That is something I am greatful for.

Some information I have heard in the past, but there is always something to learn.

I feel a bit odd just with reading because I NEVER READ ANYTHING EVER. This book is the first book I have read in years.

I dont like reading because I always had trouble retaining what I read or sometimes remember something that was never in the text.
