So much further to go... 02 Apr 2012 06:12 #135436

OK, I've done the first step. I used to masterbate and not know it was wrong. Now I feel guilty while I'm doing it...but I do it anyways. I can't get further than 5 days in the 90 day journey. I put up filters, but I find ways to get around them.

Hello, welcome to the forum.

Have you started reading the GYE handbook?

Keep on posting, and hatzlacha!

Welcome back!
Do you know yet why you want to stop?
You seem to have admitted that you are powerless over lust.
That doesn't mean it isn't fun.  It just means it's a little beyond your (normal) control.
But to stop you will need to be motivated to do whatever it takes.  And the first thing it takes is full commitment to avoiding lust.  This may mean staying off computers altogether if you can't trust yourself with one.  It certainly means strict shmiras eynayim in all settings.

Avoiding lust.  Surrendering lust.  Recoiling from lust.

Ready?

It appears that the quickreply doesn't have the "boardcode" toolbar, although the quickreply states that they "are still usable" there doesn't appear to be a way to access them.
