Hi, I've been a hardcore addict for as long as I remember myself. I'm technically still married but in divorce proceedings. B"h, I have 3 beautiful boys whom I love dearly. My journey into recovery started in 2015 when my wife got serious about divorce. I always knew I ha...

A woman wrote to us: I got rid of my computer last year because I felt it was a constant distraction, and rather than addressing everything I needed to, I was distracting myself. But to do that meant quitting my job - which was an easy, work from home well-paying positi...

I get a Mazal Tov, I had a baby boy now, and it's a miracle of GYE! Let me tell you the story in short: About a year and a half ago, when I first came to your site, I had 5 daughters and no sons. I met a partner on GYE with 5 boys and no girls. We became very close an...

I'm in a clean streak now and it certainly feels different. I'm reading more (yourbrainonporn.com as well as much of the online materials here). I had some major stress today. In the past, it has led me to try to escape. I'm not doing that now. I'm listening to music, ...

Shalom Aleichem Ya’akov, MANY THANKS – I did my 1st Shvua after we emailed last month, and not one slip BH. It expired today and I just renewed. I had restricted my iPhone (long ago – friend set up code) but temporarily he gave me back the code as this was only way I ...

I'm currently going through the beautiful and incredible GYE Handbook, and I really find it helpful. I read a bit of it every day or so. At some point, I came to something very interesting in Tool n° 3. They write that if you're blind, then you don't lust. Well, I'm bli...

My name is Binyomin, and I am a sexaholic. I have been sexually sober since August 18, 2016 with the help of Hashem, the fellowship of SA, going to meetings and working the steps. I was introduced to sexual stimuli as a young child. Since then, I lived a fantasy life....

I came to this site by accident, of sorts. Yes, there were several decades of filth and smut in my days, but I always stopped, at least for a week or two, or more. Recovery and lack thereof did not consume my life. I was fine with the pattern. Of course, yamim noraim (m...

Thank G-d, I'm over 100 days clean B"H. My life has changed around. I'm a happy man, home early, awake early, done great deeds during these past 15 weeks. And I feel strong, because with all this good, it would just be a pity to fall and lose all this! ~Shalom4511
