Your story is very strong and your conclusions absolutely right
one day at a time/ the BIG picture/ it takes a slap in the face to examine oneself
and question who we are- for me it was losing my job and the shame of being"caught"
but Hashem is always looking- and we don't really know how far we can fall
one day at a time -whatever it takes- in the end we are the biggest winners for every
day we abstain-
the battle is silent- except on these blogs- no medals no parades
but we march on... (hold the sniffles-waxing emotional)

Hi Bardichev and Gevurah and all the other matadors,

thanks for your replies, it seemed that for a while all had gone rather quiet. Glad ur all still alive and kicking.....

Like i said before, it isnt easy at all but i feel its all about getting used to this new situation and constantly building on it.

I'll tell u for free that this forum is one of the main ways of sustaining that self-pressure to perform.

Much love

Yechezkel

hi reb yecheskel,
sometimes it sounds quiet here, the only thing you can here is the clinking of glasses
if you follow the sounds you will see it comes from the pubs

hi reb gevurah,
would like to pipe in with my two agorot
getting out of lust is a silent battle mostly
but the rewards are a lot better and more rewarding than any parade or medal
it improves your marriage
your davening
your learning
your general feeling of being 'alive'
and last but not least: your 'zemiros'
carry on
Sometimes life is like tuna with not enough mayonaise

That's better. Most people catch on eventually.

liscen, by me the reason why after a while a month vechadoime, i "fall" its because i simply get bored of my seider hayom, even i enjoy unbeliveble a lot learning, and i wanna know a lot wanna be considered a talmid chochom, im also writing a lot and maybe one day ill print something.... (ill have a haskama from guardyoureyes....), but suddenly i mamesh dont have air.... i feel that i have to much pressure (of go,d) and i start not to be so carefoull about the "perimeteres" the gedorim usyogim.... one thing brings an other.......

and heyois that my day has onlyy biblical stuff in it, because i already explained many times that there is nothing in this world that interest me besides tora and lehavdil movies and porn, im always ocupied with one of them

hakitzer this that i know that evrething starts cause i need "air" and because i slowly slowly let my guard of gedorim down, so this is what by the end brings me to porn, is very good to know, cause if go,d is gonna give me the present of tshuva atack, ill be more carefool this time with all my shvachkaiten, and maybe maybe maybe be mazliach once for all
