Raw dogging Life: No Booze, No Porn, No Dopamine

Raw dogging Life: No Booze, No Porn, No Dopamine

Raw dogging.

That term has a new meaning now.

But in all seriousness

I have been;

220 days without booze.

103 without porn.

Screen time? Down.

Social media? Cut back.

I need some dopamine.

It’s tough right now.

As close to an addict on a come down.

Remove the comfort blankets

Life gets raw.

No quick hits. No cheap escapes.

No easy way out.

What’s next? Don’t know.

But I do know this

Most of what I quit? Kills men.

Alcohol numbs the pain.

Porn drains the drive.

Screens steal the time.

I could go back.

Or I could keep going.

I think I’ll keep going.

Lewis Hackney — With discipline, I can do just about anything in moderation. I don’t need to go cold turkey/raw dog. But. If guys need to do this to stay in control, I understand. No one should get lost in any addiction.

Both of them look like they could do with a drink and a shuffle.
