Markz, it takes an honest courageous and humble man to post about a fall. For those of us who look at 664 as almost impossible your fall actually did us a favor. In the back of our minds we are thinking, those guys who make it so far are malochim. We just found out you are human, so we can do it too.

Your 664 is not erased. Just as someone who uses mesiras nefesh to control anger, lashon hora or whatever other yetzer hora he is battling, and succeeds for an extended time and then subsequently slips, does not "lose" those good days, the same goes for your incredible accomplishment.

If you could one day elaborate what it means "you had to m****" I would appreciate it. Its a thought I sometimes get also and would like to understand it. May Hashem help you continue (not start again) staying clean with strength and menuchas hanefesh.

I fell and hit the restart count button.

Do I feel I lost my sobriety?

No because I never had it

I don't believe 'sobriety' applies to myself a non addict.

My Clean streak log

Began Wall of Honor journey: Aug 13, 2015 28 Av, 5775

Humpty Dumptied: 3am today

Began new journey: Jun 7, 2017 13 Sivan, 5777

At some point in the middle of the night I decided "it's time to Mast*". Now it ain't gonna work without Porn, and of course I won't go on a non filtered device, so I decided to see what i could find on this filtered iPhone.

I discovered a way to access many porn videos outside of any web browser despite all my much appreciated TAG restrictions

As mentioned previously, I do not like to share my loopholes with other gye's and drag other Trucks over the cliff, so pls wait till I do my due diligence and call Tag again... although I know TAG is not the solution

Can I pinpoint what caused my fall? Not really. And that's a hassle for me :-(

What could I have done better?

Needs some though...

I must mention however that compared to my bad old days, these past 664 days were highly productive thank Gd to you guys and gye as a whole!!

The Trucking continues!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Amazing honesty. While I wouldn't wish what happened to you to anyone else, its a real dose of reality.

Hi Markz,
I am sorry to hear about your fall.
True your clean streak may have ended, but your success streak has not. Over 665 days, you were clean 664 of them. 664/665= over 99.8%. A shooter who scores 99.8% of his shoots will probably be the best player to ever play the game. Even after a rare miss it is incontrovertible that he is still still on a successful streak.

Markz you mean so much to so many. You have your 664 and a tons more in your truck by having a chelek of other people's days. 
My dear friend, you now have a different kind of challenge.
How to deal after a fall? A much different task. As you have now pressed all sorts of psychological buttons.
You are already batting a thousand by honestly posting that for all to see. Now continue on... 
Oh by the way - there is one button you didn't push. 
That's the loser button. 
That's reserved for only those that throw in the towel.

Loser button?

Now that sounds like a cool feature

Cord should we ask the dev to add this?

I have a longer follow up post pending, but the reason I'm posting now is that I'm sort of in the same struggle mindset of 2 days ago and I know that posting has proven to kill some brain cells which must be a good thing because as I'm typing I feel my horomones calming down

Hormones are in what part of the brain? Please remind me. Right now it feels like my little brain is inside my hormones

Im actually doing laughter therapy now which is a serious form of therapy - that has proven to kill a couple other brain cells cv

On a serious note

Before posting now, I decided to give the emergency panic button a try, and I got an email of some guy lying in his grave - clearly not dead - and my sex drive didn't die either, so my verdict is out that the panic button should change to

If you're under an attack of lust, click the green button which will post on the forum that "Im Slipping”. Then watch the forum for prompt replies from other gye's"
