Yes, it will still be a life time battle, but if I really want, I can keep on fighting - one day at a time - for the rest of my life.

When you realize you're sick, you know your only choice is to take the appropriate medication and treatment. And if you do, day by day, you will be able to keep yourself clean. I've managed to stay clean for 238 days, B"H. Now, I wish to share not only strategies, but perspectives that GYE has shown me, which have proven effective. Like I said, I don't have the cure. But I've lived with the disease under control, B"H. I believe I can help others. Thank you for the great work from GYE, and thank you for giving me the opportunity of sharing it with other people.

My life has grown so much because of it, and there are dozens of families I have come to know personally who have been saved by recovery. And they found it through GYE.
Susanne wrote: Dear GYE, I am so grateful for what you provide. This is simply a fan letter. I am a single woman who needs ezras Hashem every day in every way, with more than one issue. Today's chizuk e-mail was so rich in help. Feeling hopeless and seeing effort as pointless is entirely a tool of the disease! May Hashem continue to bless your efforts and allow you to raise up the lives of good people who have a disease.

I was in denial for many years thinking that this hobby was "no big deal", and even if it was a real problem I felt it was impossible to overcome. I was referred to this site by a close friend in passing and after reading through the many posts I began to come to the realization that if all these members can do it, then i can too.
