Mindfulness, and breath work might help with the hyperactivity. Look up super-brain yoga also. Also strength training and aerobic excersice to get rid of all the excess energy. The urge surfing videos can also help with the excess energy if you can replace the word urges with the hyperactivity you feel.

I hope Hashem helps you feel calmer soon. I can identify with the feeling of being overly hyper, it certainly isn't pleasant. You can be be aware of your current surroundings and breathe deeply and be aware of the breath.

You can try to identify something you can see, hear, feel, and smell to slow you down.

21 days. Was a good run. Really didn't wanna post. Feel so stupid after 21 days. I'm only posting that it should be a deterrent for next time.

I think I went wrong with taking the whole thing too hard. I completed 40 and 38 in the past, both were a lot easier, even though I was a lot less careful. I guess lesson learned. 

Managed to overcome strong urges today. The "I anyways lost my streak" type of urges...
This i a great opportunity for me to work on this, as in the past few times, I kept it going for a few days until starting a new streak... Not this time Y"H!!

I was trying to be "too" carful. I was trying too hard to avoid any bad thoughts or urges or triggers. I was to strict with myself. The pressure slowly started building up around 16 days in when i started having very strong headaches, until Day 21 when my mind was ballistic the whole day until it burst. I learned my lesson that I have to take the whole struggle more easy and relaxed. 

I'm very proud of myself.

I Managed to abstain a whole day while having the very strong "I anyway lost my streak" type of urges, together with very strong regular urges.

This is a first for me, as in the past I always stretched out the fall for a few days before i picked myself back up.

I'll be totally honest and say that late into the day, I was in the park with extreme urges and had already made up my mind that I'm gonna fall through, I'll just push it off a few minutes and first take care of my laundry. Hashem saved me in the end.
