Today is my first day on this journey. As a matter of fact, signed up just a few moments ago. Struggled with addiction to shmutz for over ten years and lately taivah has just been increasing and scared I'm going to graduate to "live" fixes as opposed to just images. I have tried everything - filters, therapy, etc. I want to know from real people who have struggled with exactly what I struggled with and how they addressed this. Please help!

Welcome brother

Keep in touch!

Welcome!  What kind of therapy?  Why do you think it didn't work?  Did it help at all?

I don't think you need to find someone who struggled with exactly the same thing you struggled with.  There is enough in common that we can all help each other.  Also, you do not mention "exactly" what you struggle with.  Keep sharing.

welcome! you are in the right place.
one thing you will learn here is that "exactly" doesnt matter. its not 7000 strains of a virus that requires 7000 different medicines and dosages.
its addiction and  there is no magic solution to cure it. 
but here at gye we can help learn how to deal with it and live life as if it didnt exist and better than we would be living had it not existed.
hatzlacha rabbah.
