HHatzlachah! You don't lose what you gained during that time of cleanliness, keep growing and you're doing great! It might help not to focus so much on the streak, but you have to find what works for you. In any case, hatzlachah!

I read something very interesting, it's a speech by Rav Abergel who said that in spirituality we don't see failure and success but each step forward is a success in itself. You had 262 successes and that's huge for that you should jump dance celebrate that. It's huge and I'm sure that you didn't go back because of the fall, I'm sure that the you of today is no longer at all the same as the you of 262 days ago, you accomplished something extraordinary and today you know that you can do it again. You fell it doesn't matter, it happens. But you are no longer the same person and that proves that it is not a failure

The positive attitude will take you places! KOMT!! (Just one question, if I may. What was the reason for the fall? What can you learn from it going forward? Was there a specific trigger?)

262 days clean! Today is day 3 after just 1 fall. Yesterday I was left alone somewhere with unfiltered internet. My yetzer hara told me to go on a website to just look for a moment. I started putting in the name of website and my heart starting pounding hard and my hands starting shaking. My mind was in major turmoil I had a big urge to see this, on the other hand I have a goal I am working towards. Then bchasdai Hashem I accidentally deleted the URL I was typing in. I started typing it again and then I STOPPED. HASHEM is the one who deleted the URL to give me a chance. I DONT WANT THIS!! I turned off the device and went and did something else.
