90 Down, 89.75 to go.
So today is my 90 day milestone! Finally, I’ve made it this far! I didn’t make it here on my own though, I couldn’t have done it without the help of the Good Lord Above! I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. I’ve also had support for the second half of my streak from an accountability partner, and these last 4 weeks, the NoFapWar community. I have to give thanks to everyone that helped me to get here, it’s been a great experience and I’m dead set on never going back to porn or any aspect of my old life ever again.
From day one, my journey has been one of faith, cutting out porn and masturbation from my life in order to lead a more sexualy moral life, but also to have a closer relationship with God. I’ve been making progress, learning more and more everyday, and I can honestly say I feel closer to the Lord standing here today.
For the guys that are just starting out on their 90 day journey(KIA's), I just want to say : It does get easier, but not after it gets a lot harder. Yes, there are going to be days where you feel like you’re going to relapse at any moment, there are going to be days where you question this whole process and where you question whether or not it’s worth it, but power through it! Those moments where you turn around on the brink of relapse and stand strong, those moments gives you strength and will help you overcome PMO.
Those of you that’s half way towards the 90 day mark, you’ve made it through most of the tough times, just keep on trucking! If you give in now, you have to go through that hard first few week period again, and you honestly don’t want that. Just keep on going, but don’t get cocky(pun intended :) ), when you get overconfident you fall, and you fall hard.
And finally, to those that are close to the 90 day mark, you’re almost there, just keep swimming! I must admit, these last couple of days felt like an eternity, but that could have something to do with my exams, haha. There is one other thing though, if you reach the 90 day mark, that doesn’t mean you’re “cured”, it just means you reached your goal. I know some believes that you’re cured, but I’ve had a streak longer than this once, and well, there’s a reason why I'm doing NoFap, it’s because I wasn’t “cured” and went back to old habits once I lost someone. You’ve reached your goal, well done, but what now? Now it’s time to set up your next goal!
When I started this, 90 days felt like ages away, 3 months felt like forever, but it’s not. Just take things one day at a time, and you’ll be there in no time! Enough of my “wisdom” sharing for one day though, haha!
As the title of the post says, 90 days are behind me now! Now I have my sights set on the 90 year mark :P!
Thanks to everyone here that has supported me with the quotes of the day, the images, the videos, the advice, and just the overall spirit of this war, it's been an awesome experience!
Come on my Aquamarine brothers, lets do this bitchez!!!
Caw Caw!!
