Day 2 here. Recovering from my addiction to pornography. I am trying to make it part of the routine to re-read the previous report. I did that, and it was helpful. I have to remember every day how my life has become unmanageable. I need to be sincere with myself, pointedly remembering where I am really at.
I set some boundaries yesterday around usage of technology. I followed through with them for the most part, but they could use some additional work. Boundaries included computer usage restrictions, only news on the phone and only notes apps on the iPad. I need to reinforce those today.
I have to remember how every thought can contribute, so I need to seek to avoid trigger thoughts, which can be far away from acting out but still lead to it especially as they build up.
Overall if I put my addiction in terms of a stock chart share price line, I have been sinking and riding low for a while, I would say it’s been on a general decline for a while. Right now since I am on day 2 and I am feeling a slight measure of control over my life it’s got an ever so slight curve upwards. So, that’s positive but I have a long way to go.
