Dear Chevra (and especially Guard), The Rosh Hashana that I just had is incomparable to any other that I had experienced in the past. I still have a very long way to go, but I felt that I have at least an opening in my life with which I can relate to Hashem. I...

I want to thank you for your work here. Only a few months ago, my life was full of such pain and I had no idea where to turn. The past yom kippors had such dread because I knew that there was little I could do. Today I got to 50 days clean. I could not...

Dear Rabbeinu Guard, I had no idea this site was run single-handedly, or that it was your full time job. At one point I thought there was a whole team behind "Reb Guard," but then I didn't know how you managed to deal with people consistently. Then I thought you were...

Her nickname comes from the famous saying, "As long as the candle still burns, 'efshar Letakein' - one can still fix" In honor of her joyful announcement, we uploaded a beautiful niggun called "The candle still burns" - a perfect song for her story, and particularly ...

17 days, I'm still alive and I'm feeling better about it all the time. I am starting to believe I can do this... Not in a cocky "I've got this all figured out in 17 days" kinda way, because I really don't, but I feel like yesterday I may have had my toughest ...

Baruch atah Hashem shehechiyanu v'kiyemanu! I am in a bit of disbelief right now. What began as many attempts to go for just forty days, and what was always an ongoing battle for me, has turned into one complete year. I wrote to you a few months ago in regard to some friends of mine a...

When RAM (Rage at Machine) first joined us, he posted (partly in jest): I came upon this site recently. Truth be told, I was googling "porn" when this came up. I was not looking for anything like this. I first browsed this site with a mix of curiosity and contempt. Like many here...

Last Rosh Hashana, I davened that Hashem should let me die. Literally. I was saying "zochreinu lechaim" and crying "no, please don't, because I can't live with this anymore". I wanted to serve Hashem, but it just used to be just too painful to wake up every morning. More than anyt...
