I have a personal struggle that I appreciate your letting me share with you. You may have heard that I make a Parnassah (livelihood) as an entrepreneur - by helping people/companies buy or sell things. You could say I'm a salesman or a deal maker. Either way, if a deal ...

His e-mail contains a lot of wisdom and it can help us all to approach our struggles with lust with the right attitude. Duvid Chaim writes as follows: Dear Guard, First and foremost, a huge Yasher Koach to you for this site and the countless hours that you undoubtedly sp...

Before the 12 Step Program, I couldn't bear Shabbos without my family near me. I hated being alone and all unto myself. The worst thoughts and urges would appear, and I didn't know what to do with myself. Baruch Hashem, not anymore. If anyone wants to really "prove" to th...

Ilan wrote me today: Sometimes I wonder, "how can an amazing guy do nonsense like this?" I was thinking yesterday that I cannot really beat this addiction. Even if I put a filter on this computer at the university, there are five computers next to this one. I thought ...
