Hi, I'd like to say on the first point the fact of getting up after 2 or 3 days of being down, I think it's your strength and you should value it. I'm telling you honestly that such an ordeal couldn't happen to me because I wouldn't have the strength to get up again afterwards, whereas you do and I think you're getting too flustered when you should be aware of your strength. I read in a book of moussar that the strength of the yetser is after the fault to make you feel bad. What you have to do is say to yourself, I fell anyway, it was G who wanted me to fall, He wanted me to fall, and if I stayed low for three days, it's because G wanted me to stay low for three days. But after three days, G held out his hand for you to get up, and you grabbed it. If G had held out his hand earlier, I'm sure you would have gotten up sooner. Then, if you want my opinion on watching television, it's a waste of time but it shouldn't be demonized either. Ideally, not watching it would be the best thing but I think that if you are watching it now, it's okay, as long as you're careful not to watch anything forbidden that you tell yourself is only for a few days, maybe it could help you choose your shows and even watch something that could help you in your life. If you want to talk more about it, I can give you my e-mail.
