Haven't posted here for a few days- b'H everything's still good, but only just...
I came very close to falling a couple of nights ago, but b'H I'm still clean. It's getting difficult stopping myself getting complacent- I've been clean for over a week, and when that happens I always start relaxing mentally, and telling myself I'm sorted. Which I'm obviously not.

Yep, I'm not sorted. I fell last night, at about 10:50. I was trying to do something which was taking longer than I wanted it to, and I m*** to relieve the frustration. Not what I wanted to do...
I feel like I'm hitting my head against a brick wall. I can't seem to get further than 10 days clean at a time. I know this is an improvement from when I joined GYE, when my longest clean streaks were usually seven days, but still, I don't feel like I'm going anywhere...

True. I really need to look at my signature more.

1 Rebbi, 2 friends, and (to a lesser extent) my father. Admittedly, I didn't tell my father myself, my Rebbi told him. The others were all me though.

Well, thats great! Now, to clarify my point a bit: when was the last time any of you spoke, and have you shared the time you most recently 'fell' with any of the people that you just listed?

I don't think that this is what Dov meant.

Just to clarify: I shared the fact that I fell on Wednesday night with a friend on Thursday. (That's what typing fast does )
