when you say you're not feeling well, do you mean a cold/flu or weak and vulnerable to falling?

I'm feeling good B"H. But I was sick for almost a month straight about a month ago. It wasn't fun. Kaparas Avonos. As they say: You have "a virus" or "Aveiros"?  :D

To me it's the same thing. When I feel sick or weak physically, that's when I'm more vulnerable.
MDM, yes that's true, and that's why some people are noheg that once a day they say a "Giluy Daas"  saying: "I want to do, say and think only what's Ratzon Hashem, anything that the menuval stuffs in, is against my will and I want to have nothing to do with it." Of course we have to prove that we really mean it, by doing our utmost to keep the garbage out. BTW, I believe that this Yesod is one of the most important ones and the menuval will do anything to stop us from integrating it

It is not only the lack of mind.
To me it seems like the feeling of freedom, Hefkayris.
Which you obtain by not having your regular responsibilities.

I have to agree with what I'm reading here about vulnerability.  I can remember times when I have been horribly sick and still pursued impurity.  How could it be that I had no energy to do anything, and still found the energy to do that?  Sickness and depression seem to me to be strangely related this way.  I have noticed that both come along with an increased vulnerability to the Y"H.

It seems that, in our weak moments we can see what are our most difficult challenges

If you held yourself back from devarim assurim even when in a low point, feeling sick, home alone and not doing your normal responsibilities, that is impressive indeed. You have it in you, MDM. Keep strong and read the daily Chizuk e-mails well. We are here for you, and Hashem is here for you. Make use of that :-) Speak to him. Plead with him. Ask him to help you remove lust from your life and replace it with Ahavas Hashem.
