This is the first i am acknowledging my struggle to anyone as well as the first time i am writing a post in my life! I am going to try my hardest to be 90 days clean. ill admit I'm scared. I have been slipping a lot lately and i can't live this lie, and its just not about the lie its about how dirty and low i feel, i used to think I'm the only one in the from community fighting this struggle but I'm glad to see that there is a support group. I hope i do well , today is going to be day 1, I am nervous and scared but hopefuly i can take day by day and fight and see where it gets me.

Welcome to the right place!
you are doing an amazing thing by coming here and opening up, come in relax have a seat and start reading and posting, the guys here are very warm and welcoming and mainly non - judgmental, and if you care to tell a little of your struggles so you could get the right guidance, with much Hatzlacha!!!
הסיבה שיש דברים קשים העוברים עליך היא בגלל שהאדם חושב כי "אני עומד" שהוא מנהל הכל,
ברגע שיתן הכנעה כי השי"ת מנהיג הכל אז כבר אפשר להתמודד עם הקשיים. שמעתי מאדם גדול

If life is a LEMON make LEMONADE

Thank You Hashem for every moment of Sobriety!

Welcome fighting yidd. I echo what Belmont says. Join the community and read the handbook. You will likely keep falling but if you are trying you will slowly learn tools for living that reduce and sidestep the struggle, and give you a life of joy, integrity, peace, freedom and so much more. I haven't "arrived" (who has?), I still fall, but I've experienced all of this already.

Welcome to GYE, fightingyid!!

It really is great that you made it here!! Why not tell us more about yourself, about your struggles? The more we know the more we can connect, and the more we can connect, the more helpful our relationships will be.

What have you been doing these past 4 days that helped you?

KOP!! and of course, KOMT!!!
