Bl’’n I’m gonna start posting tomorrow how my day was.

As I’m writing this something in me tells me, don’t, do it only for yourself, any outside motivation is no good,

Still thinking

Thursday יום ה' פרשת כי תבא
was a very good day b"h

as I'm writing this, I'm thinking good? it was a very hard day in some other areas.
The answer, good and bad is what you did with your life and day, and not what happened.

To all my dear and loving friends of the GYE community

And to all my friends who were together with me on my journey, replying, taking interest, giving a thank you,

And for the founders and the entire administration of GYE

I wanna thank you so much, I’m going to Rosh Hashanah I’m not the same person. Im not one piece of guilt, I could look at myself, and even more im happy and content.

And it wouldn’t have happened without you
  

You should all be zocha to כתיבה וחתומה טובה, וליכתב בספרן של צדיקים

A sweet happy content year

I feel like I need to refocus not to have any interest in any women on the streets etc.

not being interested at all, [even I'm just looking not lusting]. so I ask myself are you also so interested to look at the men, 

so I wanna start posting tomorrow how my days were

Im working now on not being afraid of seeing a women on the street, It got to a point where every women i saw i got into a fear that maybe ill get triggered and act out so i had to fight my brain constantly. 
Now im trying to get to the point where im not afraid, i know that i can look away and i dont have to keep thinking about it. To continue thinking is not something that happens by itself maybe subconscious but not by itself. So i need to know that nothing will happen if i see something as i will move on. this is very hard for me. but there is no other choice. My brain got fried by fighting all day. 

Fyi, I cant look at or answer to my private messages. Ive been blocked.......

hatzlocha.  this is a very important step.  There are many triggers every day (especially for someone like me that works in the city.) Using the triggers (which you resist)  to gain confidence as opposed to feeling like you are in a constant struggle will be a game changer.

some of the experiences I write about may make it easier to identify me.  This is ok.  I trust that if anyone discovers my identity they will keep it to themselves.  If you do realize that you  know me, I am completely comfortable and welcome you acknowledging me and my struggle in person.

Hi,
This CAN be a good option... However, for many guys here (myself included) a fake email address was/is a big part of the acting out...

Just something to think about...
