stayrein OFFLINE Senior Boarder Posts: 52 Karma: 0	Thank you for Cornoy. I think that writing, helps express what may be suppressed in the brain. The main thing is for consistency. Every time someone responds, I get an email, so I hope that I can keep up, and not let myself down. I will keep you posted.. Today will be my first clean day bh.

I also find that if i wait enough time, things will work them selves out without my input. Why stress if God has it under control anyway.

Do you mean this in lust related areas or everywhere else? (or both) just curious.

Just to add my two cents about posting, I happen to find it extremely useful in almost all areas of the struggle, from keeping busy, to releasing stress to getting rid of lust, to keeping myself motivated.

Anyway KUTGW.

stayrein OFFLINE Senior Boarder Posts: 52 Karma: 0	Thank you for the encouragement. I believe that the blogging alone is not going to solve the issue, but it definitely helps. I also gain a lot from everyone's responses, as it reminds me that I'm in it with others. B'h I'm off to a good start. The issue is that the first few days are the easiest, and therefor easy to slack. But I promise to keep on posting. Have an easy fast everyone.

Hi all,
I am posting for today. Not that I have anything to share, but I feel positive posting. It gives me a reason not to look at porn. The anticlimax thing about the beginning of a clean period is that it is usually very easy, as I mentioned yesterday.
Why complain?
I am realizing how many lustful thoughts I have a day. I wouldn't have even considered them lustful in the past. Got to be really self aware.
Have a good night,

stayrein OFFLINE Senior Boarder Posts: 52 Karma: 0	I didn't think that it would come so early, however it's one of those days were a dose of Lust could really calm me down. I don't plan on using it. Iv'e just got to see what Hashem has in store for me. It's getting interesting. I need to let him make things happen, and go along with it. Take care

gibbor120 OFFLINE Platinum Boarder NEVER EVER GIVE UP! Posts: 5251 Karma: 166	Welcome stayrein! I'm a bit late to the party. First of all, I would stay away from Facebook. Stick around, there are a lot of good people, and lots of good advice here. Many of us have been stuck for years. Many are getting sober. I acted out for over 20 years. I have now been sober for over 4 years B"H. Many have done it, so can you!

stayrein OFFLINE Senior Boarder Posts: 52 Karma: 0	Hi Gibbor, thanks for joining the party. I am really not a Facebook guy, but I do know what you mean. Sometimes when I do browse, I get stimulated etc Thank goodness i haven't been in a rut for more than 4-5 years, but that is enough to know that i want to be free. And Bh im going on a week, thanks to the support here. My plan is to post every day (or other day) for 90 days, rain or shine.

stayrein OFFLINE Senior Boarder Posts: 52 Karma: 0	What's up people? I did not post last night, as Shabbos comes out late, however I am doing well. Today will be going on a week, thank G-d. I would like to thank those that responded, as it is very encouraging. I hope to have more to share this coming week, perhaps some insights etc Have a good Sunday.

stayrein OFFLINE Senior Boarder Posts: 52 Karma: 0	Thank you, 5 weeks is great. i usually find it toughest around that point in time. Just stay focused. It's good to know (not in a good way) that I'm not the only one here is is struggling. Today has been rough. I can't say it's been perfect, but I'm holding on. Will stay away from the computer after this post Imy'h Tomorrow will be a better day, Have a good night, it's wroth it.
