I agree and that is why men should get married and have children, for this very reason. On my side it is different, it is total abstinence which requires a different way of looking at it. I do not expect anyone to go the route I am going, this is my own plight and it is a tough one.
 
Of course it is a tough one, specially for a guy that spent years getting his penis bigger...why u spent yers getting bigger??

It was for a loved one i guess,and now that you have stated that relationships arent somethng u look for,yeah it must be a tough path to follow...

Definitely for most heterosexual men women play an important role around their lives..:cool:
 
I havent been feeling great the last months either,and i have been procrastinating things i was supposed to do days even months ago..

Here we all are to support each other even when things get bad:cool:

We all come from different nations, walks of life, social backgrounds, etc. and one things we hold true is Love for Brother. The support I receive when I am under the weather is amazing! When I feel like there is little hope I come here and see that there is so much hope. When I see things as being futile and everything seems to come to naught, I find my refuge here. The Brotherhood is my secret home away from the world where I snuggle close to my Brothers and tell them my fears and dreams.

Hey DLD, dont put yourself down so much Brother. If you are trying to stop masturbation and �naked people movies� it takes time. �naked people movies� is a very real issue that men struggle with. and there is no need to feel shame. i honestly still stuggle with it. However, now I use �naked people movies� as PE motivation. I would suggest maybe looking at �naked people movies� maybe once-twice a week on set days and not the other ones and slowly taper down. As for masturbation, nothing wrong with that either. I feel the same way after I masturbate, I feel like a total shithead. But I change the ways I think now. I useually only masturbate once a week now if that even. To me clamping and working on my girth and edging are more important, so I remember that when I have a ring on and I use that motivation to not masturbate. Find some sort of motivation that may keep you from doing those things. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY DONT BEAT YOURSELF UP ABOUT ANY OF THESE THINGS IF YOU DO THEM.

There is truth in your words, we will always need �naked people movies� for motivation especially for girth work. But to put the ice on the cake, we need to have a girlfriend/wife

Not true. There are many ways to keep an erection for girth work outside of watching sex. Pictures, imagination, external stimulation, viagra or the like, etc. the reason people go to �naked people movies� is it is the easiest way. The problem in this method is the temptation to masturbate, which in many cases ends the session or ruins the session from accidental ejaculation. So for someone who is abstaining from masturbation but wants to do girth work, like myself, creative methods need to be crafted. In my case I get an erection if the wind blows, something that has happened since I began this journey. Prior to that I NEVER got sporadic erections, morning wood, any of that. Today erections are natural and come, as I said, with little thought and throughout the day and night (and this is without any visual or mental stimulation, most likely unconscious sexual thoughts.) I should add too that when I haven messed up my refractory period was non existent! Erection remained after ejaculation and into second session 20 minutes later, the erection stayed the entire time...food for thought)

I've never tried to do girth work without watching �naked people movies�. When I resume training, I will have to give this a try and see how it goes.

For me it is a necessity.

Now I have admissions and also suggestions and warnings to speak on. I finally got an adult filter on my cell phone so there is no more �naked people movies� or applications that have �naked people movies�. My admission is a hole I found in this set up. YouTube does not filter the same way so you can still see adult content on YouTube, even with a filter. This can be changed in your YouTube setting to Content Filter>>>Strict. What is most important is that you do not have access to the password. My admission in all this is in checking for holes in the system I did end up watching a few minutes of a video, nothing terribly bad (no nudity or sex) but, none the less, against my conscious. I took the necessary steps to ensure this will not happen again.

So I think that in every step back, fall, slip or advancement there is a lesson to be learned. In this modern world we need to be super vigilant of that which we view or it may lead us to that which we really had no intention of watching. These filters are super helpful but, like an old leaky pipe, new holes appear as old ones are patched, we need to evolve to avoid the things that are triggers.

I'm not using any filter on my phone or computer, I just restrict myself from viewing �naked people movies� automatically by avoiding the urge to do so. I've not masturbated since 24th of this month and I want to keep at it until God knows when. But honestly, I need a lady in my life because whenever I'm done with girth work, sex should come as a prize for the workout.

The filters are very helpful when temptation arises. I know, for myself, it has saved me many falls. I feel differently though after my last fall, those intense urges to lust have tempered way down. This lust I experience mainly online, I am pretty good in public. This world has become a place where Lust is a fun game and luxury is a necessity, this is what makes abstinence so difficult, no matter where you look there is something there to lust upon.

What amazes me about the devil is when he can not get me to sin one way (sexually) he will attack me in other ways, like causing frustration. This journey has exposed many of satan's tricks and I am becoming more and more able to identify and crush those attacks. I have to say that this has been one of the biggest life changing experiences I have ever had.

You are right, the urge to masturbate can come from looking at girls walking even on the street but the most powerful urge can come from watching �naked people movies� or reading erotic stories. I just avoid these things at all cost. I've been holding myself from masturbating and this is the 8th day.

Congratulations on a week of success! I believe we are neck and neck now :)

Yes, the world has made lust a necessity and completely acceptable and there is no where one can look without seeing skin and promiscuity. I have no idea who taught these girls and women to dress like this and I really wonder where their parents were when they were growing up. We now live in a world where nothing is off the table, if it feels good do it, whatever you lust is, indulge! There is two rivers one can take here and the decision lays in the lap of everyman who charts these waters. One way is narrow and leads to success and the other is broad and leads to failure. The difference in these paths can be explained by Mathew 7: "“Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few."

I masturbated last night twice after watching �naked people movies� and shot a huge cum into the air. I will have to start all over again. I didn't feel any guilt because I no longer do it daily. We will see.

It is an ongoing battle and there will be victories and there will be times we slip. After you do slip you should NEVER feel guilty! Guilt is the devil in disguise! What you should feel is conviction to do better as time goes on. Guilt only serves to keep us away from our goals while conviction brings us closer to our victory.


After my last fall 9 days ago I have felt a new conviction in this. I realize now that there is no �naked people movies� that can give me what I want and there never will be. I will always feel empty after viewing these things and if I masturbate it makes this emptiness even greater. The small bit of "good feelings" I get never lives up to it's false promise and when all is done I feel disgusted. I think my temptations are being turned into convictions, my disgust is outweighing the short lived joy of �naked people movies�. This has only happened over the past 9 days. My ability to allow the temptation to come and go without giving it any credence is so much easier than trying to avoid the thoughts, this makes things worse. We all have passing thoughts on many things that come and go and this is normal and when I can see that these thoughts will pas easier when I do nothing at all it makes life so much easier.

I am not sure about the future, anything can happen so I put no trust in myself whatsoever, I simply remain in the moment and I can handle that. If I give any kind of energy to my past or future I am squandering the joy of the moment. In the moment nothing is wrong!
 
I guess since this is a confessional I would like to admit a loss:(. I no longer measure what I used to :( I Lost and inch :(. It was not cemented and I really have not done steady PE for years so I know gains are lost over time and when the penis is not used or maintained, like my penis, uncemented gains are lost. I still maintained my permanent gains but that loss I did not! IMy last official measurement was by GQ Magazine at 10.5". I really never measured seriously this since then. I know not using my penis, growing older, eliminating sex, eliminating masturbation, coupled with no PE maintenance I lost the gains :( I know that a lesson is learned here is one of SRT and that is one of "use and maintenance." I will not rebuke myself for losing uncemented gains, but I will take responsibility for not maintaining or, even, using my penis and sticking with a size I no longer had :( ...I should have consistently measured and maintained. I now know, with years of experience, that gains can and are lost over time if maintenance and use is not employed. I am seeing an opportunity to take up SRT as a newbie and prove how quickly I can gain an inch, in full DLD Beast mode...especially with the LengthMaster, BathMate, Phallosan and SizeGenetics...I bet I can regain this loss in less than 6 months! Pictures will not happen, with all the photoshopped pictures what would it matter? A live video is the only way to prove today so there is no dishonesty possible. I said I would never do this again but maybe I should document this new journey with live video. I never really had a Progress thread so maybe I will start with that. Goal, 10.5", Girth, I am good. I feel guilty and I am sorry for my transgressions but I will make it up to you with gains!

When I started SRT I quickly realized that many factors played into PE aside from just gaining (healing, maintenance, useage, etc.). In my new experiment in SRT I will regain my losses. Since that time I have not done anything and I have used my penis very infrequently, if ever (BAD!) I think I will use this as a chance to prove the effectiveness of SRT and present that with my regained size! SRT started so long ago, it is like a life time. I have been so content just loving my Brothers that PE was not important and sex, well, that had to go. But, I am excited to show y'all how fast DLD can gain back that loss!

On the masturbation front, I have been good. It is strange, I do not have this huge urge to masturbate or view �naked people movies� at all but I will be thinking on something or praying or some other mental exercise and all of a sudden an image of �naked people movies� will appear in my head and will continue to press. I try to shift my mind but it seems to make it worse. I get frustrated because it robs me of much time! I try to do things and these images and memories play out and take me off course. I always fear I will slip up, ALWAYS! I sometimes thing I am scrupulous but then I think I am not tough enough on myself. I will be the first to admit that this has been hell and humiliation at the highest level. How pathetic I must seem, trying to keep myself pure, trying to be honest, all for what? It seems sometimes like it is a punishment but then I see Jesus naked before the crucifixion and I regain the strength.

I think I have made the 10 day mark so I may treat myself too a night of �naked people movies� and masturbation! Just Kidding! :) But damn, I would love it though and that is what is so sad. I fight so hard to stay pure and it is so hard to do!
 
Mike...your behavior is deplorable!! I akin this to owning a one-of-one Ferrari and leaving it in the garage...that baby needs to stretch its legs and run the way it was designed!! Now get out there and speed-shift thru the gears like you're meant to do :)
