It won't get rid of any bad habits but will allow you indulge in 6 of them quickly and efficiently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ya know some seem to need a new one torn??? i try to behave but it goes counter to my nature?

Love, Carson that is how i've been dealing with stuff! and it works and still takes willpower. I think it is the old school way of dealing with stuff.

z00se Posted October 21, 2009 The old... do it as much as you can today and stop the day after is the worst way... just one more If you want to stop you should stop right now. Don't put it off to another day. I think don't let the thought enter your mind or get it out as soon as you can while it's still a baby. The more it revolves around your head the more energy and power that thought will get and then you wont be able to resist. I have thoughts that build up for days finally i can't resist. Keep dealing and clearing the thoughts out often so its still managable. Be active, and keep your mind occupied on something else. Any mind game that works Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You could have said "... and masturbating while watching ..." and that would have made it 7 of the 8. Peace & Love! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
