    Last week i vowed to keep myself away from ponies.
    Did it work? WARNING. MAY FEATURE AMOUNTS OF BEING SAD AND UPSET.
    Yes. No. Sort of.

    Day 1- Monday
    Normal Day. I said goodbye to ponies in the morning, kept it through school and home. By the time i got home i was already craving ponies. I carried on, and focused on doing other things to keep me away from them.

    Day 2- Tuesday
    Perhaps the most painful day out of the lot, i felt like going on several pony chatsites, even entering the pony thread in a faviroute forum. I never clicked it. I carried on doing what i did on monday, but this soon got boring in a way.

    Day 3- Wednesday
    After missing ponies for 2 days, i felt like bursting out. I usually go on youtube and watch about 7 episodes a day, but i still kept quiet. The nintendo wii managed to help me, and i looked at thorpe parks website.

    Day 4- Thursday
    Second Stretch here, second half of the week. Pain. I knew i had less days to go then i already done, so i pushed it, drowing out every possible sign of ponies.

    Day 5- Friday
    I was RebeccaRolled today. Forgetting i had Non-Pony week, i went on youtube and searched for ponies.
    I had broken my target.
    And thats the first time i felt happy about breaking a target.

    Nice job, Coasters! Five days is quite an achievement! It is really difficult going without ponies...
    I remember when I had to go without them. Never want to go through that again!

    Mine was like:

    Last Monday: *Looks up at clock* Crap...I've been watching pony YouTube vids for 7 hours straight. I don't think there can be any more denial. It's time to accept that I am a brony. *Downloads whole series*
    Last Tuesday: *PONIESPONIESPONIES* :omg: *Goes to work* Aww....people annoying me. *Thinks about ponies* :grin:
    Wednesday: Same as Tuesday.
    Thursday: Off of work *watch much more ponies* :omg:
    Friday: WHAT?! My first week as a brony and there's no episode?! FFFFFFFFF
    Saturday: *Hangs out at friend's house all day, ponies and fun stories all day*
    Sunday: Oh, the next episode's a Fluttershy episode? My patience is rewarded!
    Monday, Tuesday: Same as Last Tuesday

    So yeah, my week was, like, the polar opposite of yours. xD

    Well, I have been on a Synchtube every night for the past week or so watching ponies with some friends. I haven't gone a full day without at least an hour of ponies since I first joined the herd 2 months ago. I could see going 1 day, but not a full week. 6 or 7 hours without ponies is easy enough, that is called sleep.

    That is unless you dream about ponies in your sleep. Then you never go without ponies! :D

    I lasted a week.
    That was back in August... I wasn't so committed to the community like now.

    Even then, I lucid dreamt and dreamt about ponies while I slept in my decline. That was enough.

    I am totally sane.

    Yikes...I'm not sure I'd want to do what was attempted here. When Everypony went down for most of a day, I had to hum a few bars of the theme song near constantly to stave off the shakes.

    I'd go nuts if I tried what you did. Well...Delve deeper into madness, at least, but my point is that your a braver pony than I.
