I find myself yearning for Lent, almost like a child waiting for Christmas. It's a perfect opportunity to stave off alcohol, weed, energy drinks, coffee, masturbation, porn, junk food...
Maybe the mirage of a hardcore fast months in the future is precisely what's making it harder to abstain now. "I'll free myself from this... just a few months."

@grips it's okay and good to fast outside of Lent. I'll be doing it soon myself I think
