My driveway and sidewalk are available to be shoveled...Just sayin
Youre probably not that far from me!

The Video in Markz’s signature is 100% Emes and revolutionary. And it applies as well, to taiva b’chlall, not just addiction.
Highly recommended for those who haven’t seen it yet

I mean small and simple ones and just for the off Shabbos. There is no reason not to make any goals. How about something in davening like davening before zman tefillah, and/or being grateful for something during modim and something in learning like five minutes from a mussar sefer and ten minutes halachah (Purim and Pesach coming up) and something in chessed like helping out at home or making each person at home feel special. 

Just ideas, but doing a whole bunch of small things like these can really just make you feel productive and happy. Being at home can then be much less stressful than "my goal is to not watch porn and masturbate".

Very good and important point.
Thank You

Just finished a great work out. Feeling happier bh.
Its no coincidence that these bad feelings were during the last week of me not working out.
Gotta keep consistent in that

Hey guys...

Slipped here and there, looking at pics of girls for few moments, really wanna masterbate, really wanna go on the computer here and just enjoy.

So what’s holding me back?

Honestly, right now it’s the streak that I wanna keep alive, it’s the busha I have from you guys (though it’s all anonymous, but def helps that I’ve spoken to some of u on the phone), I’ll feel more depressed, it will be harder to get back up etc etc.

Theres just only so much to do at home here.
But for my mental health I gotta be here abit longer...

Oy ״איך נפלו גבורים״,

A struggling,

YeshivaGuy

Aza Baal Gaavah!

What makes you greater than me, huh!
Come off your high horse right now, will ye?

Kidding aside, if you start feeling down like this, why would you say its positive for your mental health.

Don’t tempt me buddy, I got half a mind to fall waayy off this high horse, והמבין יבין.
Im not down from being home.
I was feeling very down in Yeshiva, and am at home relaxing and reducing my anxiety levels, while remaining in touch with my therapist.

Oh no. Sorry to hear. 

You know what your problem is?
You’re too deep and way too serious 

Ask your therapist to guide you how to be more shallow, like you know those peeps that are super chilled and have not a care to their lives or what’s coming tomorrow.
Let me know once you’re healed on this regard

YG,
Let's make a deal. I'm tempted to masturbate tonight as well. I'll hold back as a zchus for you and you hold back for my zchus.

Also, forgot to welcome a fellow klan to our clan.
Can you share how you reached 92 days? Perhaps YG and I will get some chizuk out of it.
Thanks
