Urges on Yom Kippur? 05 Oct 2022 23:51 #386282

Is it normal to get urges on Yom Kippur? I found it much easier to say no but I ended up falling right after it.

I've read here that it is common. Need to be prepared, before and after spiritual and emotional high days, to try not to fall.

I also had a very meaningful YK and sincerely davened saying that I would not do P&M again and fell this morning. Feel terrible and hope others are able to be stronger than I was

After being on a high spiritual level, one can fall very hard.
My experience...

I often fell on a spiritual high, like aseres yeme teshuva etc. Get up and move on, don't dwell on it. If Yom Kippur makes you feel anxious. that could of also spiralled a fall.

Some say it's a sign of white-knuckling.

Maybe this is a good way to explain simply: working harder instead of working smarter. So the goal is to be happy, composed, tranquil and calm, and focusing on other things in life as opposed to high strung and stressed out, focused on not thinking about certain things, not fantasizing, not falling.
