After about 15 years of ups n downs with this struggle...

Thank you Hashem. I am ever so deeply grateful.

I have updated my avatar cos I need some Chizuk.... makes me feel more proud with myself.

Thank you to all my friends here too.

Amazing! Your persistence and courage is really incredible and inspiring! Keep it up, and keep on posting!

Hello, excellence. I have just recently joined GYE and I have been reading through a lot of the different threads on the forum. I just  discovered yours and I was really moved by it.  I read your whole story and I can really relate to a lot of it. I just wanted to say thank you for sharing it as it gave me a huge amount of chizuk. I am so nispoel at how you never give up, even after falling. And now, 180 days! Wow! I hope to one day be able to post that on my thread. I wish you all the best and keep posting!

Just want to log a thought that's been nagging at me, really meant for BB forum but my thread is here. My wife mentioned to me that she visited a friend and was browsing at her friends photos, and saw that her friend (who i see often) had pics of herself at the beach in minimum underwear only (trying not to be graphic). for some reason it made soooooo jealous. 
I believe it's a nagging thought that will pass. I don't believe in coercing my wife to do anything that she is uncomfortable with. To be honest I have nothing to be jealous of, because I BH have a wife who is ever so talented, she is forthcoming too as a loving and connecting wife, and helping me with my needs, and I certainly would never want to swop her for that woman. I think what's really bothering me most is that I am feeling bothered...... can't work out y that one comment got right into me....
never mind let's move on, it will pass...

Hi all,

Just over a week ago I had a very near fall.... Was having it difficult for a couple days... then found myself in Mikva alone, and for various reasons its a location where I have fallen back in the day numerous times.... I caught myself at the last minute cos thanks to HHM there were certain boundaries he had set me that I couldn't allow myself to cross, which ultimately saved me. I was rather shaken. It was a wake up call. Now that it's been a week and I'm back to myself I'm more comfortable posting about it. 

Thanks to you all.
Excellence

Dear my very close friends,

Firstly, Love to you all. You are my support, strength and guidance in this turbulent world.

Today is another milestone for me.

250 Days clean

I'm not sure y but I feel like this is a special number and Hashgacha Pratis for Erev Shavuot.

I pray and care for everyone one of you here, I have grown so much from all of you, especially those who have guided me outside this forum. You all know who you are!

It is a continuous journey for me, I have grown so much from all my years of ups and downs, and pray hard to continue growing and helping others. I am not immune in any way, and every day I must remember that I am vulnerable.

Wishing u all an enjoyable Yom Tov.
