Kanesher,

I would add that, it's not only addicts who might have inappropriate thoughts in this situation.  So cut yourself some slack, my friend!
Just as an alcoholic needs to avoid that first sip, a lust addict needs to avoid that first slip.Slip today? No way! ;)Fall today? No way, Jose'!

I got triggered by some next door neighbor - I didn't even seek out anything. She burned her arm with a pan and her husband wasn't - and she banged desperately on our door screaming in pain. I took care of it as best as I could, with cold water and silverdine and calmed, found her husband and sent them off to miun.

I feel like such a pervert. I got triggered by THAT. and it's unfair. What I was suppose to do? "Sorry, I'm struggling with lust addiction, do you think you could scream and knock next door?"
Woops! Just read this post, I guess the PM I sent you looks pretty dumb, now! Ha.
1- ditto to kedusha. this kind of trigger isn't exclusive to addicts, pervs, etc. Sometimes it just happens because - we are not dead.
2- there may be few things more triggerring to me, a person who knows the power of lust and has used it, than suddenly encountering a person of the opposite gender who is deperately in need of help turning to me with vulnerability, putting her trust in me and me alone. Oh, and we are kind of alone.
If I'm a real sicko, sorry. I guess I'll just pretend my arm is the blintz next time....

Dov,your insight, and honest candidness (is that a double of the same thing? Like: Good Yom Tov = good good day) are amazing.

If you want to reach out. you dont necessarily have to wait until someone responds to the post. at this link: rehab-my-site.com/guardureyes/forum/index.php?action=who;start=0;sort=user you can se who is online and where they are. Say you feel like you want to talk to a certain member who can help you.... you can click and see if there are onlnie and which thread they are on. Or you can pm them and know that they should see your message relatively soon. .... Just  a thought ....


Great idea OTR.

agreed. by the way, when you look at someones profile you can also click to bring up all of their recent posts. so if you like to follow what someone says and get chizuk from it you can see all of their previous posts there. I wonder if there is a tab to click to check if the kids brushed their teeth and washed negel vasser. Now THAT would be a great thing for a  mom to have!


Watch out kids, moms spying :D

I am feeling weak. I am looking for someone to chat with on gmail. Last night I exposed myself to something I should not have and now it is coming back to haunt me. I am focusing gently and fully on other subjects, but I still could use some chizuk. My email address is in my profile.
