Out of respect for the last thread and the way it ended, I suspect no one really wants to add anymore posts to it. I feel that way at least and I suspect a few other do also. So lets pick up the torch and Finish the mission. Some of you are like me and we are not done. Some of us require support on this journey and appreciate the accountability. Lets do this.......

Put back on course via a 'One Hour Call' with Athol. Seriously worth 10 times the cost, but don't tell him that....

"before you change your thinking, you have to change what goes into your mind"
I'm not posting every day, but I'm sticking with it.
I suppose if one had a severe addiction to porn, it would be a consideration. But I doubt it's a problem for most.
A friend did send me a text with a picture of an attractive nude girl. Looked at it for a second, thought meh, deleted it. Didn't do anything for me. Now if W on the other hand shows just the slightest bit of skin..........

DAY 101 NO MB
DAY 106 NO PORN
Want to encourage all of those doing the detox. Keep at it, one day at a time.
MB is sort of keeping me going as sex itself is still likely to be rare while I slowly build attraction. DW might suprise me anytime though !!
One thing which is great is that my awareness of what triggers me in terms of attraction and fantasy has become heightened now porn is out of the mix. Sort of like learning to taste again after a decades-long ketchup eating experience, if ya know what I mean....
