Welcome,

Is this your first time here, or are you the "second chance" from the past?

What have you tried that hasn't been working?

Looking forward to hear more.

I would like to understand when you say " I fell down about 3 days ago after being clean for like 3 weeks . Except for a few minor falls"

What do you call minor falls?
If it is considered a fall even if it was small one, then you weren't clean for 3 weeks.
Am I right?

* NO, It's not all or nothing, just every bit counts!
* I failed yesterday, and I might fail tomorrow. But just for today I'm going to give it a try.
* Being curios made me lust and get into trouble.

Hashem loves you more than you love yourself. You gotta foucs on the now (however hard that may be). Leave anything from the past and any worries about the future in Hashems hand.

Our seforim say that we must treat aanything that happend in the past as something Hashem wanted. Our choice is what to make of the now.

Lifes about progress; not perfection.
What can you do now to stay clean?

I highly suggest the TaPHSiC method - has worked for thousands.

Go on your homepage to find it. Listen to the 40mins shiur.

Let us know how it goes!

Military,
Have you used the Taphsic personally and has it worked for you? I think if you're offering that advice to people you probably should be a little clearer and share more of YOUR experience with it. Thousands? Really?

And wouldn't work for someone cold turkey? Do they have to do anything else? What happens when the Taphsic expires (I've seen many guys on the thread have consistent falls in between renewing Taphsics).

None of us has it all together, but together, we have it all.

we always put our sobriety before our ego -

Posts: 1263 Karma: 35	Welcome second chance, The oilam tends to get off topic rather quickly here. Two Jews, three opinions and all that. Tell us some more about yourself, what you've been doing to stop, what helped you stay clean for those 3 weeks etc. KOP! (keep on posting)

Apparently our friend "second chance" has kept his Taphsic to the tee, but if there are underlying issues, you're gonna have ouch for sure

So now take the next step, but this is a small one. it's called the 12 steps and I think it can help you my friend

If you can keep posting on 1 thread it's appreciated

Hatzlacha!!

Skrry for multiple threads. I just couldn't find this thread. thanks for directing it back here. Thanks for taking an interest in me, i appreciate your advice. On my personal home page I didn't find anything about the 12 step program but after your suggestion i did a little digging and found recordings of the 12 step program. I couldn't commit to specific timings for phone conferences because it doesn't suit my work schedule. But the next thing I'll do is listen to those recordings. Any other suggestions and how to get there is appreciated.

KOT!!

I only did a w day stretch last time. I just didn't update it. And then it asked me for my last fall and it figured that I've been clean for 70 days. I never in my life did even a quarter of that
I wish...
P. S. What does kot mean?
