05/19/25 Day 9 - Holy wow, this is my first time posting here! Nine days feels like a small eternity but it's really only just the beginning. I dove into some books on staying strong, stumbled upon this thread looking for support, and have been cleaning up all the triggers from my phone and laptop. Plus, I'm trying to get more involved in helping others-it's amazing how much better you feel when you're not struggling with those urges!
5/21/25 Day 11
Oh hey, it was one of those days where I had more alone time than usual. Got a little wobbly for a bit-those "just this once" whispers in my head-but deep breaths and a solid reminder of why I'm doing this kept me on track. Another day down without giving in!
May 22, 2025 - Day 12 for me too. I think staying busy really does help. I still get those urges sometimes, but I've made it pretty difficult to access stuff, so I'm still clean.
5/22/25 day 12 staying busy helps lowkey still get those urges but i made it hard to access stuff so im clean lol
May 24, 2025 - Day 14
It's been two weeks now, and I feel good overall. I am healthier, although there are moments of temptation during stressful periods. However, it's much better than it was at the beginning. I remain committed.
Maybe it's Day 15 now-i guess that means the date is May 25, 2025.
5/28/25
day 18
idk i havent been tempted at all lately lol
May 29th, Day 19 already? Tie sure flies!
5/31/25
Day 21-three whole weeks! Sometimes I get these sudden cravings out of nohere, but it's great that I made it hard to give in. Self-control is tough but doable.
June 3,2025
Day 24. Life is better without pornography, but it's not always easy. Here's to cnotinuing the effort.
June 5, 2025-Wow, Day 26 already? I've just been on autopilot, honestly, no time to even breathe or worry. But seriously, being wiped out after a full day of work and actual living feels pretty awesome for me. U know that feeling when you're done and it's satisfying, not because you're burnt out but just lived your life? Yeah, that's how I've been.
i guess it's Day 28 now-maybe that means the New Year is coming up soon?
June 11th, 25-Day 32 for me. Whew, I feel like I've got this under control, though I'm being extra careful as I navigate through some tricky areas
June 17, 2025-Day 38. Just chugging along, one day at a time!
June 19, 2025-40 days! I think that's really exciting, maybe someone else mentioned this too.
6/28/25
49 Days! Honestyl, I'm so glad I don't think about porn anymore. It used to be like this constant urge that made me just search it all the time to feel better, but now I've got a much healthier mindset. You knwo, I cut back on my screen time and started reading actual books-like, holding them in my hands instead of scrolling through my phone. Adn yeah, my relationship's way better too. Just wanted to say, I'm not making empty promises here-I mean, trying to stpo myself before has never really stuck for me over the long haul-but this time, it's different. Found some solid strategies and a supportive community where people can talk about their struggles without judgment. It's actually working, so if you're serious about changing things up, I'd totally love to share what helped me. Seriously, it's possible!
7/3/25 - 54 days

July 22, 2025-73 days until whatever epic event we're counting down to! Anyone else marking this on their calendar?
7/23/25

100 freakin days! yeahhhhhh feels awesome! been kinda off lately which probs means im moving on. still wanna be here for ppl who need advice tho. u got this dont stress over tiny steps back. ur super strong!
Wow, congrats to you too! Achieving something like that has always been on my radar as well. But uh, let me tlel you, the road has some seriously steep hills. My confidence takes a nosedive on bad das, and motivation? It feels like it's checked out for weeks at a time. Plus, mood swings are real-I swear I can go from zero to crying in two seconds flat.
August 7, 2025
119 days... once I figured out what I really wanted to achieve, it hit me that I couldn't afford any slip-ups. So, I started hitting up books for advice and realized there were certain patterns in my life that needed a total overhaul-replacing those bad screen time habits with better ones, and coming to terms with the fact that sometimes you just need a little help. It wasn't easy; there were definitely days when temptation was strong,but I didn't crack. You all can do this too-I know it's tough out there, but keep pushing through every single day!
Hey there-just wanted to say that I've been reading about Mr. Feathered's journey, and it's really hitting home with me. It's amazing how he's managed to break free form this really destructive habit. I'm in a similar boat and trying to figure out the best way to quit for good, but I feel like I'm still lost on which steps to take next. If Mr. Feathered-or anyone else-has any tips or advice, it would be super helpful!
I guess it's really tough dealing with those intense urges sometimes, huh? Maybe there are ways to cope, but I'm not sure what they are.
Reading books on beating porn addiction is a great step-keep at it! It's not an overnight fix, but you can totally do this. *Sending good vibes*
Oh man, I had some seriously rough days where everything felt like it was crumbling around me. But hey, I'm back on track now, trying to rebuild my resolve from scratch. It's been a few days since the last slipup, but honestly,I need this fresh start with full accountability. Day 1 right here-let's do this!
November 24, 2025
Day 2. I deleted all the distracting apps.
Day 3. I really like that people started this thread about the northern lights. Maybe no one else is follwoing it, but personally, it's nice to have somewhere to keep track of the days.
Day 4 already? Time flies.
Day 8 already
Day 11 already
Maybe today's day 14? I think that's right.
Day 17 already
Day 19 already? Honestly, time flies when you're having fun-or stressing out, depending on how you look at it.
Day 25
I think 28 maybe? I'm not sure though.
30 daze! Alvarez is still hype tho
Thirty-five days-wow, that's a blink-and-you'll-miss-it amount of time!
I think maybe it's 40 days?
I think it's been 49 days.
Fifty-four days
59 days until the big day, who else is counting down? I mean, honestly, it feels like forever but also super quick at the same time.
Guess it's been 66 days already, i mean where does the time go? Anyway, gotta keep counting!
That's about three months left! Whew, where does the time go?
Ninety days.
The number mentioned is 95.
7/17/2025 - been kida busy but gud day tho imho

That's awesome, honestly. Just wondering if yo're still clean though.
Day 1 - 21/05/25, and honestly, today went way better than expected. Fingers crossed it stays that way!
Day 2 - 22/05/25
Staying solid, though my feet are starting to feel it a bit.
day 3 - 23/05/25 omg so much to do already
Day 4 already? Time flies when you're having fun, honestly. 24/05/25 - feeling like it's been both a minute and an eternity at the same time!
Day 5 - 25 May 25
reset - I did the whole thing because I got super nervous about my presentation today:(( Now I'm right back at where I started, ugh
Reset x 2 - May 27, 25... Another day where I just didn't get anything done, ugh. Same old story.
Day 1 - 28/05/25
New start.
day 2, 29/05/25
reset - 30/05/25
Just started day one of the countdown, which is today-May 31, 25. Can't believe it's finally here!
i guess someone mentioned reset on January 6, 2025-I think that's when it happened too.
Day 1 - 03/05/25
Everything's fucked, no point worrying. Let's just start the damn record
Day 2, April 4, 25
Day 3 - 05/05/25
reset - 06/06/25 (yeah, I totally forgot we were in June already for the earlier posts hahaha)
When someone said progress isn't always a straight line, honestly, I didn't think it'd zigzag around as much as it has been. This is seriously starting to wear me out.
Day 1 - 07/06/25, let's do this! Honestly, for me, today is all about getting that momentum going-can't wait to see what we accomplish together!
day 2 - 08/06/25
i think i finally got a handle on what's been going on with me-it looks like skipping the gym leads to slipping back into bad habits. so maybe i'll make it a point to hit the gym every day starting today, no matter what happens, you know?
day 1 - 15/06/25
new start today. hoping i make it this time
January 7, 2025-day one of teh adventure!
Day 2 - 02/07/25
Need to improve today.
Day 3 - 03/07/35, I had a little setback but everything else was pretty good, I think.
Day four already-time flies! April 7, 2025, here we are.
Day 6 already? Time flies when you're having fun-or maybe I just need a faster metabolism to keep up with everyone else's pace.
Day 7 - 07/07/25
I didn't really notice anything today. I only realized there was an issue when it came up at the very end. It's kind of strange. Maybe I just got super distracted, you know?
Day 8 already? Time flies when you're having fun-or in my case, barely keeping up. August 7, 2025, here we are!
Day 10 already? Time flies when you're having fun-or in my case, maybe just running around like a chicken with its head cut off. 10/07/25,here we are!
day 11, 11/07/25
Day 12 already? Man, time flies when you're having fun, or in my case, just trying to survive the week. - 12/07/25
Day 13 - 13/07/25
Maybe I should start over somehow? '-' July 15, 2025
resetting everything on August 16th, 2025, i mean let's just start over that day honestly
i think day one was on 10/11/2025, maybe that's right?
reset.
So yesterday was kind of a restart for me, and tdoay's going to be day 2 starting later tonight. I've got some tough stuff coming up financially-like maybe having to cough up 14k for damages at my place. Fingers crossed that the landlord will okay the replacements we talked about earlier.
Day -4? I guess I'm a day behind on my countdown. Time to catch up!
day 1 - 7/6/25

Reset scheduled for June 25.
Time to finalize settings.
Reset - 23/6/25
Back at it again. Better luck next time.
Day one of a fresh start-January 21, 2026. New year, new beginnings.
June 27, 2025-day one already! Here we go!
Day 3 already-man, it's June 30, 2025, and honestly, I'm starting to struggle a bit.
Hey everyone, just dropping in as the new kid on the block. Tried tackling this solo but yeah, nada. Feels great to know there's somewhere I can vent without judgment and stay on track.
So, Day 1 here, fingers crossed.
It's June 28, 2025, marking a fresh satrt.
I think today is my second day without it-June 29, 2025.
Got it, let's get this party started!
yasss fr keep it up! day 3 clean \m/ june 30, 2025 irl lit vibes
Day 4 clean-whew, what a rough day. Felt like a real jerk about everything, but hey, I'm still standing. Anyway, hope everyone else is hanging in there too-take care, especially on this tough day-July 1, 2025
Day 10 clean. Feeling tempted-like this inner glass breaking into a million pieces. It's empty and frustrating to try and pick up every shard. Digging them out feels like tearing off bandages but I know it's the only way forward. Sitting here, surrounded by these invisible bits of me, is tough but necessary.
July 7, 2025.
Day 20 clean! Yay, July 17, 2025 is officially in the books.
I've had a solid week overall. Not chasing after guys for once-I'm focusing on healthier stuff instead. And I finally found a therapist who feels like a safe space, which is honestly really important to me right now.
Hope everyone's doing okay!
It's day 28 for me too.
I'm not feeling fantastic, but I also don't feel tempted at all.
How about you?
Day 10 - 17/07/25
I've been having trouble with masturbation and pornography recently, and I ended up joining chat sites as well. After doing a lot of research, I now understand the factors that led me down this path, and I am very motivated to stop completely. The longest period I've managed without relapsing is six days, but currently, I'm on my second day. I plan to track my progress here and would appreciate having someone to hold me accountable. Today marks day two, and I feel good about it so far.
July 30th, 2025-so yeah, Day Zero for me. I'm kinda here 'cause I finally admitted to myself that this is really becoming an issue. Honestly, I need someone who can kick my butt into gear and keep tabs on me, but the thought of asking anyone close? Eeeh, it's terrifying.
8/6/25 day 1
