To my dear brother.

I would to give a big thank you to GYE.

Last week my wife saw the delete history box open on the computer and she asked me if i have been watching stuff again and i told her point blank about my addiction (P..n) and that it has been going on for years.... she was shocked beyond words she could not understand how someone like me could be watching this stuff, i am supposed to be good... everyone knows that... bla bla bla and of course i did not blame her for being mad, i tried to explain that i tried stopping and that i have been going to meetings and that there are other nice frum people who suffer from this.... she did not talk to me for three days, i told her about the GYE website and she went to check it out and she saw my account was logged in so she checked out everything that i posted....  she then told me that she would do whatever she can to help me, when i ask her what happened why the change of heart she told me that she read my posts and she now now see's where i am coming from, she saw me porting my heart out for help and she saw that i was sincere and really wanted to change... this past weeks we have been extremely close i am going for 90 on 90 meetings and she went to two s-anon ( support group for wives) meeting this week. b'h i see a much brighter future coming,
Had i not found GYE and posted my feelings i dont know if my wife would have believed me or trusted me ( although we still have a road a head of me for her to completely trust me).

It must be sooooooooooo much easier now. Not only did we have to hide our problems in the first place, but we also have to hide our recovery from those issues. You don't have to worry about that anymore. Now you can concentrate only on growing. You now have another supporter helping you along.

wow, chalk up another great zechus to Guard and his website.

we should all feel and express the gratitude we have to Reb Guard for providing this wonderful website full of chizuk, advice, guidance and community. his zechus is entirely unimaginable.

p.s. did anyone mention money? we should all support his work in any way including financially.

have a great shabbos
