I feel I'm stuck with my addiction, this what I'm am... Outside I put on a mask and  playLike nothing wrong. This sometimes puts me down.

real work invested into bettering yourself and improving this situation should lift you up.

This so true. Often we think that it's all about the results. That's the way we're conditioned to think. When it comes to matters between us and G-D it's all about the effort..

Wilnever,
What is the "Success tracker" ? the 90 day chart ?
 *  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.

Wilnever,

Part of the new integration of the Flight to Freedom program into the site is the option to use the "cure tracker" to track your urges and write notes on them. It's much less black and white and tracks success based on how involved you are in the program instead of just streaks. It also takes your 30 day, or 90 day average to track progress instead of just tracking perfection. Anyone who wants to use it instead of the 90 chart can be switched by sending a PM to @MenachemGye.

Maskim! weres illnevergive up?
I'm sick of the Un-scientific approach of today's medical and social environment. 
we will never heal and become a better society unless we realize that all people are addicts. Any thing we do that we aren't interested in is "addiction" and medicine doesn't fix addictions. 

Pain causes addiction and medicine cant fix pain. 

Unless we heal our pain, and become truama conscious so as not to cause others pain, we will never be living in a functioning human society.

I'm still around. I haven't had much wisdom to add lately. The few things that I did learn over the last few months that I feel would be helpful to share, I don't have the mental strength to put into words.

Thanks. 

I am nose-deep in therapy and a pretty big mess these days. I don't have any support besides my therapist and sometimes I feel like I am running in circles. Every time I think I make a breakthrough, I uncover another deeper hole. 

It will get better, but it's taking time.
