My Journey of quitting Porn (Day 8)

I learned that what my mind tells me about my status quo is often very deceptive. I had a pretty much flawless streak of 3 months staying clean after I read "your brain on porn".

But after that, I relapsed like every week. For two months. And I always told myself how easy it is now to stay abstinent again. But after I posted my first entry aight days ago, I realized this wasn't true.

The only reason why I did not relapse again, is because I would be ashamed to reset my streak in this forum. And it wasn't easy.

I mean yeah, my practice of quitting for years makes it a bit easier now. But without this motivator I would have relapsed again.

I think it is still progress.
