Thanks for the call today, 
Came on late,  a fellow gye'r called in a rough patch. 
I enjoy hearing the 4th step samplings.

Those roving scholars get on my nerves. 

What goes through my head, 

Dude,  Just sit down and learn, and if it so exciting you wanna share it with the world, share it with you wife, your chiddushim will enamor her,  she'll fall in love with you all over again, her little rosh yeshiva.

Now id like to get back to what i was doing. .

So... chavrusa, what were you saying about Trump

hear you.
my problem is that as we work the program, the list should shrink, not increase, and I'm afraid (add to fear list) that i will blow it with someone over shabbos.

There was a lot of positive feedback on the highway signs; the oilam wanted more.

Here is the initial post, and below are the additions.

I would like to encourage you to KOT (keep on truckin'); I'm just not sure which highway you're on.
There are many roads here; most of them lead to the same direction.


route1.jpg

is the Godly way. Hashem is here; Hashem is there; He will protect me from any second stare.


route12.jpg

Then there is the "12 - steppers" and those who like parables dealin' with steak and sushi. Are you an addict? This might be for you? But then again; do you like raw fish; well-done ribs? Perhaps not then.


90.jpg

There are those who say the JDI approach (Just Do It); Get to 90 days and you'll be ok.

This is my personal favorite. Which direction you wanna go?

So bottom line; let us know more and each one of us will tell you what worked for us and what didn't.

First things first though....Get on da damn truck!

b'hatzlachah

additions:

No 'falls,' 'slips,' or 'accidents' on da road!

This one doesn't need a caption; we just need the rig up in front.

Who relates to this?

ya' think anyone is so haughty about his opinions? not on this site!

Scare tactic!

Bottom line; get on da freakin' road!

If I may try to alleviate that fear, I would suggest that successfully working the program does not mean new situations won't arise or that when they do you are angelically able to not feel it, it means that when they do you are better equipped to handle it.

I agree to that, and that is exactly why it is botherin' me, for I am not dealin' with it correctly.

esslassos hits the nail on the head here. It's like a sports competition- when you finally get in the ring, on the court, in the pool... wherever your competing, that's when your training kicks in. It's not the time to start training. The time to prepare was many months in advance, and according to what one prepared is how they will have familiarity and ability to use the tools.

For me, I don't get stronger or less compelled to act out. I have the same lustful urges as I did before I started working on my sobriety this time around, but I DO have people stored in my cell phone that I can call in a rut, guys on the forum and a  few different phone conferences that I attend each week. I don't know if I will ever get to the point where I forever stop feeling the urge to act out, view porn, do something destructive to my wellbeing- But I do know that if I continue to talk to guys in the same predicament I invariably come to learn more tools and how to deal with it. 
  • I've never been one for signatures.. but sometimes people change
  • I'm seeking the life that I find manageable which may not be the life you find manageable. But let's make a deal. I want you to find yours and you want me to find mine even if they are different.

I'm a introverted guy outside of gye. Someone like you that's highly sociable is gonna have 20000 friends and 2 or sometimes 6 re-sentimental guys, so I don't know if it's such a stinking situation
