Please forgive me and understand that I am asking, for I want to understand. I am somewhat jealous of your level of emunah and bitachon, but I am not chapping on a practical level.

He loves me unconditionally, no matter what I do. I just want to live today. So what prevents me from falling? He will love me anyway!? The answer I say to myself is I want to live, and acting out is simply not a way to live. It must be stopped at all costs. You seem to have another answer. Please help me understand.

thank you

I hear you and this vort is very applicable AFTER one falls and needs to get up again.

However, let's not forget that our ultimate goal here is ZERO falls. Let's focus and work on that. It is entirely possible even for someone who is already at the rock-bottom.Please see Chizuk e-mail #441 on this page for more on this vital concept (scroll down): www.guardureyes.com/GUE/GUEList/GUEList9.asp

Hit the Rock-bottom, while still on top!

If you don't stop you WILL end up as one of these stories. Don't do this for Hashem, do it for yourself. If you don't stop, it will only get worse and worse until you are one of these guys in the stories.

I.C.
That is the point I was making. Stop because it is not a life.

I wrote a long post for this on the "returning" thread.

But about chupping on the practical level?

I am sorry to have to tell you that neither was I able to apply any of this in practice. It took sitting at meetings with other addicts and sharing with them for me to be able to apply it practically.

I am not saying that it is the only way, just what works for me just for today.

Hi. This vort is Toras Hashem, Toras hachasidus, and as all Torah, not unlike oxygen,and much more than oxygen, is applicable at at all times. Before, during, and after a fall.
At the same time while we study all these fundementals of yiddishkeit and Torah, we strive to never fall of course. The 2 go hand in hand. These are the tools that hashem provides us so as to help us in our mission. As the seforim say, as we get closer to Moshiachs times, the tool of Ahavas Hashem to us and vice versa,(with yiras hashem following it) is the primary tool that will be our final push to the redemption and to success in all endeavors.This was revealed to the baal shem tov in his day.It only intensifies with every passing day.

please explain what it is you are talking about; thanks

Dear fellow GYE-chassidim (that's a good name for everyone on here even if you are not chassidically inclined), today is my day 24. BARUCH HASHEM!!!

Absence of p*** in my daily life creates somewhat of a vacuum inside of me. I feel that I am missing something. Instead of a harem of hundreds and thousands of fake, flavor-of-the-day, over the top, imaginary girls, I have only one beautiful, but real woman in my life. This creates some sort of a bitter regret inside of me that constantly tells me: "If you go back to p***, all these girls are always waiting there for you. They find no fault with you, they expect nothing from you - they are just waiting there for your pleasure."

But this is a lie. They are not real. P*** is all fake - 100% of it - appearances are all fake, moods are fake, sounds are all fake, everything that goes on is 100% falseness and an act. There is not 1% of reality in it. It is a business built on people's own imaginations and brain chemistry. They know how to push your buttons by slipping falseness to you, which you willingly interpret as reality (willingly making yourself into a brainless, salivating idiot). P*** is like science fiction. I can sit here all day and say to myself: "I am definitely missing not having access to a time machine," and feel all this regret and emptiness inside of me. But in reality, going and watching science fiction gives you pleasure only to the extent that you want to believe that presented falseness could be real.

So, at the end of the day, the imaginary waiting thousands of girls in p***, would not have any effect on you without you wanting to believe in their realness.

We all know that p*** is fake, but we know that the way to get pleasure out of it, is by imagining that it's real. And we got addicted to this imagining.

NO MORE P*** - no fakeness for me, thank you. I am gonna go ahead with real life.
