There is no limit to thank you's.

Karma can only be given only once every six hours.

I think you can do on a phone when you go to their profile.

(asked in an earlier post) what is karma about? Last I checked karma was some form of destiny that buddhists believe in. What is it about on the forum?

RResponding to discrimination against budhist comment that no he was only discriminating against destiny since he said it's some destiny that budhist s believe in so either he's against destiny or budhists. My sincerest apologies for not being clear.

A karma is like a truckma, only smaller.

But seriously, karma (at least here on GYE) is kind of a popularity measure. Meaning that if someone likes you or likes something you said, they click on the "+" under your name, and your karma goes up. And if they don't like you they click on the "-" and your karma goes down.

Hey guys in the group,

Sorry I've been silent, just been super busy. I get all the posts of this group in my email and can check it periodically. I'm back to a second job, first from 8-4 then the second from 4 (or whatever time I get there) till 11.

I am trying to stay positive, about life in general. I need a new hobby.

It's nice, but isn't the point of the forum to NOT have a mechanism that lowers one's self worth? (potentially)

Had i long talk with my Mentor/Psychologist or however you want to call it...
...2) Getting power on how much our thoughts can control me = When i feel a drive/desire its the thought that i need to satisfy my desire/drive that makes me act out, and i'm aiming to get control and be able to tell myself "i know i'v got these thoughts - but i can have these thoughts and still go on in life (without having a need to act out, thats the way normal people think (thats what he said - as i have got no idea how normal people think).



Just a bit of a better explanation, as it seems i didnt write it so clear.

If i build a wall not keep on falling, as i did with the TaPHSiC Method, but i do not build a control on my thought process,
What will happen is that every time i have a strong drive, ill crash into the wall, and the wall will keep me,
but what would probably eventually happen - or the wall will get shaken, or i will get bashed up!

So the idea is to be able to gently divert my thoughts not to crash into the wall, or at least not a hard crash.

WS it's great that you have a live person to talk to. I have not taken this step but many people on GYE say it's very important. Do you find it has changed things for you?

Yes it sure did.

However i always had an open relation with him, got to know him when i was still in Yeshiva, When my parents realised what is going on with me, they sent me to him, so sometimes when i feel im up/down to something i try to call him & get some help.
