Ye... such double standards, what a deep state, corruption on the highest levels, they probably have the data to the chips in the vaccines.

#love the post. I wish there was a way to comment on each post without creating a whole new post. Like a "comments" section on each post. Just a thought. Especially for guys like me that love replying to a gatrillion posts a day :-)

we will never heal and become a better society unless we realize that all people are addicts. Any thing we do that we aren't interested in is "addiction" and medicine doesn't fix addictions. 

Pain causes addiction and medicine cant fix pain. 

Unless we heal our pain, and become truama conscious so as not to cause others pain, we will never be living in a functioning human society.

I’m not going so fast. I’m not done here yet. But just curious, why is your karma so low?

Dear HB, if you have something to say, I welcome you to say it. Go with G-d! However, it is not cool to use my words and strike through them to make your point. That is disrespectful to me. I have never shown you disrespect and I am surprised you would show it to me. You have no idea what was behind my comment and you didn’t ask for clarification. Please do not “edit” my words again. With much appreciation, TG

Settle down children
Hi, my name is ILH and I’m grateful for having to focus just on today. 
Easy does it... I don't need to be perfect. 
If you figured out my identity, don't be shy, come say hi! 
It takes tons of courage to fight the good fight, but we don't have to do it all alone.

Hey, I’m old enough to be your father (possibly grandfather!). Who you calling “children?” Point taken! :-)

Welcome,
Pease go for some real help.

What you're doin' with your daughter is wrong, illegal and sick, please stay far away from her until you have recovered.

Godspeed to you

NOTICE: For the safety of the members and the forum, I removed some of the information written by "noselfconfidence". 
I can't agree more with Cordnoy and I'll try to reach out to "noselfconfidence" to guide him to seek real help before lives get destroyed. 

Can you please update us about when he reaches out? we are all concerned for him and his daughter.

WARNING - LONG POST :-(

Over the past few days on gye many of us have been “Codependencating” - jumping the gun to try change someone else…

(Disclaimer - the following is my opinion :-)
A few days ago 1 fellow mentioned inappropriate desires which he may have acted on. Many - including our Heros jumped to “help” our brother - but did he want help? How many months was the guy on the gye forum that he’d be comfortable to have a serious 1on1 with any of us?
He stated quite clearly that he only joined because of his wife’s push. 
Such people need time to acclimate and can possibly get help.

I recall another time many months / years ago where a molester posted once about some inappropriate behavior and immediately got push back from some of us, I’m sure getting him nowhere, so what was the point?

On this regard I’d agree with HB that unless the individual is a danger to a member of gye, or his posts are really problematic - he should be welcomed and treated with compassion and care.

All of us have some quirks.

Teshuvahguy, I agree it’s unusual to strike out text like our friend HB did, but a private pm would suffice, or better yet just KOT!

Let’s stop trying to change him. He’s trucking nicely on gye and so are you!!

I'm sorry. Yes it wasn't nice at all. It was a mistake and you should be upset at me. I wasn't sure if I should do it. I understood from the way you expressed yourself last night, that you wouldn't be coming back, therefore I was "moreh heter" to write it, because it wouldn't hurt you anyway. But yes, it was not nice at all and I should not have done it, so I would like to give you an apology, I'm sorry and I don't blame you for being upset, it was disrespectful and you have always been respectful to me.



You are respectful and have taught me much. I hope you can move past this mistake of mine with forgiveness and peace. I dont judge you if you can't. Feel free to PM me to continue the convo. Only love

Ok…time to say goodbye to GYE. I no longer find it healthy or helpful. In fact, it’s at times a bit toxic.  I will continue my count and that’s it. No more interactions with other people on the site. To those who have helped me, thank you and hatzlacha. I wish you all only the best. 

please dont go! (unless you really know that its not good for you,in that case who am i to tell   you what to do) whatever you do , much hatzlacha! it was really enjoyable to read your posts ,you added a lot to gye !

if you do  go C"V , can i have your karmas?

Sleepy I am on a mission to get your karmas out of bed. They've been sleeping for way too long. Time to wake them up guys.

I’m sorry but I have to disagree here. If someone is actively molesting, which this guy implied in his post, we don’t have time for him to get acclimated and feel comfortable reaching out. He is already hurting people and he needs real intervention immediately, and he needs to be told so in the strongest terms. 
If someone falls off the roof and breaks his legs, do you give him an aspirin and wait to see if it helps, or do you take him straight into surgery?

I agree and you agree and so does his wife who told him in no uncertain terms that he needs to get help - but where does he stand now?
Likely helpless / therapist less / gye friends less. 

In concept you are 100% right. 
In reality I believe I have a point too, and we need to find the balance.

I learned this from a top therapist. I’ll try find his frank talk on the topic, and share it with you guys. 

Thanks for your input!

We all seem to agree that there is something called 'a really problematic post'. We also agree that we need 'to find the balance'. That's why there are people who run this place who define what is a problematic post, and they do their best to find the balance. I would add that I for one was affected in a negative way by that post. I believe there's a very big difference between people who are looking for help that post about themselves, and in their description of their history they describe terrible wrongdoings, to someone who is posting about a current problem that he is struggling with right now. It affects all the people reading it. Besides for the fact that we have no idea what exactly the intention of the person posting was when that was posted. So even if that person will likely be helped less, I will be helped more. I, and all the people reading anything on the forum, will have a forum that is a little safer. I am new here, and my friend markz is here for a really long time, so if I know a little about what could be going on behind the scenes in someone posting I don't think I have to educate you. Hatzlacha and KOMT to you too!

Markz, if you felt the need to rebuke me for my (very polite) comment to HB about altering my post by telling me it would have been better to do so via PM, then wouldn’t your own comment criticizing me have been better delivered via PM? You know, kinda “lead by example” sort of thing? Anyway, we’re all over it. Time to move on.
