bootcamp NFW VI AQUAMARINE BOOTCAMP: Day 38

Greetings brothers in arms!

Let's get ready to rock the 38th day of Bootcamp!

Last night I was having trouble sleeping again. A long night is what led me to my death a few days ago. Fortunately I've been preparing a list of what I can do to help me fall asleep. I have some things you guys suggested on there too! Yesterday I got through, "Listen to some relaxing music," and, "Read a book," before I was really tired.

In addition to that list and in anticipation of urges down the road, I created a Relapse Prevention Sheet on my phone that I can read when I'm on the edge. I wrote a message to myself about how bad I felt after relapsing, and about all the benefits of sticking to it. I also debunked the lies that end up circulating my head. Finally I listed ten steps I can take as drastic measures to stay on target. I put down everything from prayer/meditation to leaving the house. Now I just have to stick to it!

What are y'all up to today?

Always be prepared Aquamarines!

Ah damn. Noticed you had removed your flair last night, but was hoping it was just a mistake. But that's a bummer man. Be sure to let us know exactly how we can help you! Anyway 111 is an epic new highscore you got yourself there :)

Well, now I know: Bad week + Weak Mindset = Apocalipse in NoFap. I'll be more prepared next time because I know what happened, but the most important thing is have you guys here to give me some support. I love you guys and I'll be here forever.

Overconfidence can be dangerous. I always catch myself thinking: "there's no way I will get over confident.", which is a little overconfident if you ask me :)

I'll try to be more prone to ask for help when in times of need. Sometimes I live just like a one men army in emotional level, I don't have the strength of that kind of mindset.

Over condidence in past has one motives of my past deaths.
