I loved it that you say rewiring your brain and I think your comments that "you only watched it for 10 min and it was only Youtube crap" is very important too.
It's just like a baby learning to walk and in doing, so falls over a few times. The baby that tries - WILL LEARN.
The baby that doesn't try to walk is on trouble.
You may have relapsed, but , you can hardly say you haven't changed. You have changed massively. Just the way you are responding to this show it.
You made 22 days. I still recognise that as a great achievement.
(I'm sorry I am a math / stats freak...)
Formerly, IF you acted out and watched porn every day
365 days a year....as I used to
And now you have gone
22 days not viewing or acting out. Here's your achievement...
****** ToBeFree Leaderboard ******
Frequency of acting out, 365 x per year
down to 17 x per year, that is
an astonishing 95% performance improvement!
Anybody in
any field of endeavour who can manage a 95% performance improvement in their first go should be congratulated!
PS your comments on Binge Control are spot on too! CSC
