I have been posting too much on GYE and need to quit. I have not been able to post in moderation and it is making my life unmanageable. If it gets unmanageable enough, I believe be'emunah sheleimah that I will use porn, masturbate or whatever - and then it's all to the wind, for I will surely start where I left off, which was pretty ugly and destructive.
So you will not be hearing from me as much, maybe not at all till I get hashem's help to moderate my posting....we'll see what He wants from me.
Dov, have you heard of PA (posters anon)?
1. We admitted we were powerless over posting on GYE--that our lives had become unmanageable.
2. We came to believe that a Power greater than Dov could restore everyone on the forum to sanity.
3. We made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of Guard as we understood Him.
4. We made a searching and fearless inventory of all the previous Daily Doses of Dov.
5. We admitted to Guard, to ourselves and to another human that there were enough DDoD to fill 10 volumes.
6. We were entirely ready to have Kedusha remove all the explicit words.
7. We humbly asked Dov to sponsor us.
8. We made a list of all persons he had helped, and became willing to appoint him as chief GYE moderator.
9. We said amen to such people wherever they blessed us to be like Dov, except when to do so would injure them or others.
10. We learned not to take insults personally, and when we were wrong, Dov showed us where.
11. We sought through prayer and meditation to improve our donations to Guard as we understood Him, praying only for the budget to carry that out.
12. Having had a awakening as the result of Bard's trucking horn at 5 AM, we try to carry Dov's message to others with similar problems, and to practice riding a tricycle in all our spare time.
