Who is R tzadok and what were his actual words? What's his source for that?

Ok, how about this one:
I'm drunk.
On life.
It's been a long time.
Haven't slept in 36 hours. Been davening at home. Wife thinks I'm nuts. Wife is right.
As usual...
Red bull...
Reggae playing in my ears...
Something is cracking...
I am finishing a bit of a magnum opus on Bava Basra...
and it's a beauty...
this thing called Torah..
apparently, it's real...
God.... you know, when the deep clouds
disolve into
dust
and you let it rain on you
you and cassius bare your chest to the storm
and you tempt the powers that be
and laugh...
something cracked...
I can't stop perfecting it...
writing...
red bull...
something is cracking... a good thing , I think...
I'm in a place... it feels almost like life... I don't want to go to sleep... I don't want to go anywhere
L'chaim...

1. Great chance of feeling super-depressed afterward.
2. Breaking what you have going.
3. G-d loves you
4. Imagine how good you'll feel if u can control urself
5. We're all rooting for you
YOU CAN DO IT!!!

(these are just the reasons I have on the top of my head - I had exactly the same problem last night and so I hopped over to this thread - b'h it helped me - hopefully it can help you!)

Kanesher - you don't want to fall because it's fake, it won't make you happy, and when it's over, you'll wish you hadn't.

You certainly are...I'm always amazed when people have the strength to post here and stop themsevles from falling. Even just coming here to post is an incredible step, and I can guarantee that Hashem is happy with you for doing that!

How are you holding up?

Truth be told, that when getting rid of an addiction, usually something else takes its place. Like with smoking- people tend to eat more and gain weight. So too with this. I find myself just surfing the site rather than other stuff. Still going strong!!!

Exactly - and it feels so much better, doesn't it?

We can also try to transfer all the extra energy, time, and interest into other things...might take a bit of adjustment, but it might work...
