Lots of good stuff here.
Lively chaps.
Friendly neighbours.
I don't follow everythin', but it seems everyone is on some positive path.

Keep it up.

Hi Chevreh, its very good to be part of such an amazing and active group.

The past week i realised something else about myself, through the lens of GYE.

I'v been missing Minyanim of Mincha & Mariv and as well missing the Tefila itself, but i kept on thinking, Na this is just a one off (- a multiply off), end of last week i realised that im missing more Tefilas then the ones i am praying, so i decided that instead of denying that i got a Nisoyen, ill start to work on it!

So for today it worked, and Be''h it will go on.

I think there should be some type of 90 day wall for all sorts of Kaboles, that any one with a specific Kabolo should be able to find support and work together with other people, e.g. non Jewish movies, Tefila, Minyan etc.

Looking forward for comments...

As I posted previously check out habitbull. It's an app that's designed specifically for that. It's meant for you to create your own goal and it will help you as you develop that good habit. B I use it in addition to the 90 days chart and personally i think it's better than the 90 days chart in a few ways.

Sorry, I will try to quiet down, especially since that is easier than trying to change your handle on GYE

Was really a mindless comment. I would have put put an emoji if I could figure it out on my phone.
 I do enjoy and gain from your posts.

Feeling a little curious now. May potentially lead to a slip just letting everyone out there know.

Everything is done together in the group.

Slipping has to be a coordinated group activity - until that happens - and it won't - you're just gonna be stuck

Now about slipping - if I feel I'm about to slip it essentially means falling all the way

Is there a way you can keep on trucking without getting wet?

Well, I feel like slipping also, so that makes 2 out of 15. Actually, I feel like falling

Im confused a little. When I say I feel like I might slip that means that I may do something that may cause me to eventually fall. When I put it out there the test gets much easier as I'd rather not tell everyone hey I let you know to stop myself from this but I did it anyway. So I'm not sure why markz is saying it's a fall ... I'm posting many steps before I'm even thinking of falling. That's why it worked last week.

How you doing? Still hanging in there? Have you been able to get yourself distracted to something else?

Thanks for asking. I'm not "in the danger zone" at all. I just miss it, which is what I meant by " I feel like falling." Like missing a dear friend. It is kind of discouraging, feeling like this longing will never go away. 
How 'bout you? How you doing?

Shua you're a great guy 4 Sure

I did not say it's considered a fall

I meant to say for me a slip is step 1 of 12 straight to a fall

Im happy to hear you have many staircases so your slips are very far from falling or circumventing the railings - you must have a big house. 
When is visiting day?

IIn response to all these wonderful questions. Now is not a good time to visit as I myself am still under construction. Second, I am doing better than I was 13 days ago. Third, does anyone else feel that the longer they're clean the less cloudy their brain is in general. Your mind starts to get clearer and you're less I don't know what to call it but it's something good.

Also in middle of long article about why internet pornography is much more addictive than standard pornography. I'm finding it very interesting. In general I am finding that the more I learn that scientifically there's something actually going on it makes the fight more down to earth instead of it just being like yaakov fighting the malach and avodas hashem... All wonderful things but they don't address the specific test that internet pornography poses to people different than standard yetzer haras.
(in case it wasn't obvious, I struggle with internet pornography. No, it's not just a random fascination of mine
