Welcome to GYE!

How old are you?
What's your background?
How often do you indulge?
How much of your day is spent thinking about indulging?
Have you tried to stop in the past?
Did it work?
How do you feel when you're not able to indulge?
Why is the question of whether or not you're an addict so important to you?

We're looking forward to getting to know you better!

honestly i don't get it. On the high of the holiest times of the year and most inspiring instill find myself less then a week later in the muck again. May HKBH forgive me i know I'm addicted and hope posting will help towards my journey to heal. I believe this is a small version of what avodah zara was like!!

Shalom aleichem, New Year!

I don't know the answer.

But as a good jew, I'll counter with my own question.

What brought you to gye?
What is it that you hope to get out of this site?
