I'm really upset right now. This was the first time I posted and I didn't think to look at the posts on the original forum. It's an OUTRAGE!! I missed all the fighting . Now I'm afraid to post anything, it's going to turn into another megilah. Thanks for all your posts, it's greatly appreciated but lets try to minimize the fighting, when I'm not here I don't want to miss anything. Just kidding lets stop the petty bickering, we're all here for one reason and one reason alone.

Thank god I'm at day 22. Today was a very difficult day for me, I'm traveling and I needed to stay by my mother in law and it's hard for me but thank god I found a meeting in Brooklyn where I'm staying and taking it one day at a time. I'm hoping to get some sleep tonight. Looking forward to another sober day. Good night and keep the peace. There is no need for specific commentary on each word or sentence unless your name is Rashi.

Thank-G-d you missed all the fun!

22 days one day at a time is a great brocha. Hatzlocha with your meetings and thanks for the sense of humor. It's well-taken!

Good night!

If you decide to be done with your problem just let me know. I'll have you fixed up in three weeks.

I never said I had gayvoh. You are reading my mind there. Really the only way you could know for sure if I have gayvoh is if you ask me, but you never asked me. You should have asked me and instead you guessed.

I find cognitive therapy pretty humiliating. When I found out that I was just a very gullible person and the yetzer ha-ra was just pulling the wool over my eyes (that I did have a choice, and without a group,) I felt pretty low, and I still do. I was happier when I was in SA because I knew that I had an important job to do, which was to shoulder the burden of this addiction and to be sober at any cost.

I am not wasting my time in a discussion. If you need me you know where to find me.

ouch! careful people im new here just popped my head to see what was going on and i got my peyos singed from the firefight! has anyone heard of different strokes for different folks. or whatever floats your boat, milks your cow etc. everyone has to understand what speaks to them most and go with it. hashem made everyone unique as well as providing the tools for them matching their unique strengths and abilities. for the more business like people a quick fix and be done with it might be better, whereas the deep thinker might want something with more food for thought, something more all encompassing. bottom line know your options well, know yourself, and jump in hashem will guide you! much hatzlachah to all

WOW. I am just wondering. Who hutz meDov and Nederman actually read everything they've written here... a gantze chabure do....

can anyone who has been helped by cognetive please post

No need. The famous doctor and rabbis have already spoken, surrender is the only one true method.

Nederman, I am sorry but it seems your posts are causing a lot of strife and unnerving people... Our website needs to be a place of peace and healing... If you have any chassidim who feel your approach is the right way and they have been helped by your approach, they should send me an e-mail to eyes.guard@gmail.com and I will reconsider.

I have nothing against you, nor against your approach. But too many people are complaining, and there's too much disagreement going on here as a result. This is not conducive to recovery. I must have the greater good of the community in mind.

Sorry.

Fair enough.

So how are unstoppable and scaredandconfused doing? Is more controversy and machlokes needed to get them to tell us how they are doing?
