Hi out there i hope someone finds this and has some advise for me. Ive been struggling for a few years now and have tried many times to stop now I'm giving my first few tryst at using gye. I need help on how to mentally stop myself before I even get close to stoppingredients if possible even hours before around when my yetzer Haraha first starts to poke his head around. Iso there a way to better use the tapshic method?

Another thing that helps i learnt from the audio shiur the science of habit change. Basically find out what triggers you and plan diversions. Keep fighting and stick around. We grow from each other.

Morning'!

From my experience, trying to stop myself mentally has just made me become more mental. Besides, if I haven't trusted my own mentality up until now, who says I can trust it going forward?

Most important is the ability to reach out to someone else. Posting here is a good start, but having someone you can call is even better, though obviously it needs to be someone you know is safe.

That's the significance of a sponsor.

I would add to that. Not just a sponsor. It's the significance of the fellowship.
