Reb 36, I'm constantly amazed and impressed by you - at how quickly you're moving forward, and the fact that you constantly do this cheshbon hanefesh. Fantastic, and it makes me certain that you're growing at an incredible rate!

i have an obsession with listening for sounds of s*x. like some people have  problems w/ voyerism (?)  . for me it's listeningism . i am working on letting the bumps and scratches i hear, go  uninvestigated  . so as not to be drawn in. tho,  i think can say in all my 20 years of listening i can count on one hand the amount of times i've been right . but the YH' is not logical -

Well I hope you get over this like the rest of us. We all have our own Nisyonos. Focus on the task at hand.

I think it's great that you're aware of feeling stupid, and you're planning remembering that for next time - that's a great approach!

May we all learn from you!

OK . i'm  in trouble . i never got up from the last fall four days ago . i am acting out without wanting to and without  caring . just to do it . i feel dead inside .i think i'm depressed(though i don't feel depressed is that possible?). the situation in my life right now is totally taking me over and not giving me time to get a hold of myself at all. it will be over soon. i think i have to wait it out . until things get back to normal . if you knew what i was going through you would understand. i wish i could get into detail for more help. i may need to take a break from posting now b/c i can't do any avoidah and i'm just depressing myself writing "did  nothing today again."
