	If you are wondering why you can't stop masturbating even though you're guarding your eyes, it's because you're fantasizing.

13 days!!!!!
With Hashem’s help I will make it through this mtzsh clean and be on 2 weeks!!!!
I feel weak at the moment so I will probably stay away from anything that may trigger me even if it usually doesn’t

You are an amazing inspiration
That's a huge step in this battle to know yourself (the most or one of the most important thing in life ayin alei shur) and where you are weak and to run from those situations

RIDE THE WAVES.
Keep Fighting because thats why you're alive!
Never ever give up no matter how many times you fall.
If you are about to fall call someone for chizuk.
DON'T FALL,CALL.

Very happy for you. Each step forward that you take will be met with even more siyaata dshmaya.

You should be celebrating on Purim! Plan ahead and enjoy the day.

Ah freilechen Purim from yerushalayim ir hakoidesh!!!!! Today there are 19 days behind me clean from porn and really acting out!!!!
I am asking hashem to help me stay away from nisyonos and it says כל הפושט יד נותנים לו!!!!
I will beat this but for now I am focusing on today
I don’t need to notice what every girl is dressed up like but if I do notice it can stop there Bez”H
I made a commitment last night to my Rosh Yeshiva to Bli Neder learn in Kollel for 5 YEARS!!!!!
yes me the boy who was never going to go to Eretz Yisroel with dumb plans of starting to date 2 years ago and go to work which B”H never happened!!!!!!!!
I love you all!!!!!
As my Rosh Yeshiva says “today on Purim we don’t see people, we see neshamos” over here it’s more like “we don’t see usernames we see the most heilege neshamos in the world!!!!!

Wow purim was BEAUTIFUL B”H!!!! So was Shabbos!!!!
I am B”H 20 clean and I hope With Hashem’s help I can be clean tonight Bez”H and make it to 21!!

Tomorrow will be the Levaya of Maran Sar Hatorah Reb Chaim Kanievsky I am a little afraid to go because I am petrified of crowds (I always hated crowds but when my very close friend A”H was trampled in Meron it didn’t help) so I will be stressed out tonight but stress equals dealing with it not masturbating

Go to be part of the klal and for kovoid hameis, and to gain hisoirirus. Dealing with stress is so tough without porn. At least you’re able to identify clearly what is causing your stress. Good luck with it. Safe trip tomorrow.

21 days!!!! 3 weeks!!!!!!
I Thank Hashem that I am here and I beg him for another day clean!!!!

The levaya was gorgeous and I just stayed near my Rosh yeshiva most of the time. B”H it was not too bad and there was not much pushing and the crowd was pretty spread out. Plus we were super close to the mittah.

Right when we arrived very early to the levaya I noticed a very pretty girl standing on the porch directly across from me wearing a flashy color making her very noticeable and in my mind she was looking at me too… (could be she was could be she wasn’t I will probably never know) and I really wanted to look at her but I couldn’t afford to have her on my mind so after a bit of back and forth I turned around and faced the stores.

I WON!!! Eat that yetzer hara!!!!
