General

I am a 30 year-old Chassidic man who learns in kollel. Ever since I can remember, I have always been obsessed with desire for women of every type, denomination and variation. Over the years, I would masturbate in hiding. Gradually, it got worse and I started getting invol...

Hello, GYE! I'm so excited for having reached this point and experiencing the cleanest, most honest and most growing 3 months in my entire life, or whatever I called "life" before now. Death, perhaps. What helped me? The forum. The dedicated, constant posters, moderator...

An email we received from a wife, Jan 1, 2016: My husband is in a leadership position in our community. We are currently married 20+ years. The "perfect" couple, totally "in love." In year 16, i caught him with porn. He confessed, wanted to get out, but didn’t know how...

Since I have never said this before, thank you for all that you do in maintaining GYE. I have been sober for almost a year - and for most of the last 3 years - because of this website.

I've joined GYE recently, and I can't thank you enough for the life-transforming process that I'm zocheh to go through! I don't know by what Zchus I got to find out about your website and to get in touch and feel so comfortable with so many members... But one thing I do ...

Thank you for your website. I have definitely learned some things. It was especially helpful to me and my wife to speak honestly about the issue. We had spoken before, but this website gave us much more clarity. I felt I could be more open with her since I felt she h...

I wanted to update the chevra how things are going for me. First of all, you all should know that I never really believed that I would be able to stop my masturbation problem. I have major anxiety, and I'm also a very sensitive person. For many years, I've used masturbati...

I've been on Guard Your Eyes for some time now, working on myself and my shmirat Einayim. Over the past 5 years, I have had over 3 years clean. However, that mean I have been falling for at least 2 years. But I never give up. After every fall and relapse, no matter how ma...

I was a guy who used to fall multiple times a day. Recently, I've been working really hard on myself and, with the help of GYE, I was able to stay clean for 6 months straight! After a recent fall, I opened up to my wife about it immediately, and she was able to take it a ...

All I can say is "thank you!" Since signing up, I have really become a better person. I now win when I have an urge; I owe you my sanity; I owe you my nitzchius. I can only imagine the reward for your hard work. *** Keep up the great work. It is now time for me to help ot...

Dear GYE, I would like to take a couple of minutes before Yom Kippur to express my ultimate gratitude for ALL that you've done for me in the past couple of months since I've joined. Last Yom Kippur, I remember feeling so much despair. I thought I would never be abl...

I am very happy to share that, b'Ezras Hashem, on Shabbos Shuva 5777, I will be 2,700 days clean. The significance of this number is as follows. As we know, in Halacha, when it comes to changing a habit, there are (at least) two significant numbers: 30 and 90. For example...

Hi, I just donated $180.00 to the campaign. This is a small token of appreciation for my 583 sober days. This is a miracle and a gift from Hashem to me, and Guard Your Eyes was the vessel to bring me to this day. Guard Your Eyes opened my eyes my mind to a possibility tha...

To Guard your Eyes, I just wanted to take a few minutes to express the tremendous amount of hakaras hatov towards you and your organization. Since that sentence can't get any more cliche, I'll get a bit more personal :) This year has been quite a challenging year for ...

Hi, GYE! This is 'an honest mouse' here. Following from your recent chizuk email about being in touch to explain how we have grown in the past year, I just wanted to be in touch to say thanks. After around 20 years of progressively worse behaviours with porn, masturbati...

"Another year is ending now. Just one like all the others..." That's what I used to feel every year, when its end was imminent. One more year that I thought I would stop to watch porn, to masturbate myself, and... nothing. I expected hopeful to a new year, but deep insi...

Thank you for everything! You have no idea the revolution this website caused. Just from my end, with God’s help, a Yid held back from going off, and a couple, who were ready to divorce, are working things out. Who knows how many people have been helped and are being hel...
