Giving this a try 25 Nov 2015 20:27 #269663

Hello,

I am new to this site. I joined after I read some articles about this site and I realized that I needed help in my struggle to be clean.

I wanted to do the 90 challenge and have my own forum. So this is it.

Hopefully this will do well. Well, more than hopefully, lol.

Re: Giving this a try 01 Dec 2015 20:38 #270052

Thank you all for the welcome and support. I really appreciate it.

Also I have about 6 days and it has been tough, nearly slipped yet still going. I really feel like this time I can succeed, instead of the years of struggling like the pass. I have read the GYE book 50 pages in and I have so impressed and inspired. I really feel good about this!

Thanks!

I got to admin the first week was hardest. It is getting much easier now, albeit still a challenge. Also I am reading the handbook what an amazing resource. I will apply the information there. For the first time in my life I feel I can actually in an efficient and practical way be clean for the long term, sustainable purity.

Thank G-d for GYE!

Re: Giving this a try 04 Jan 2016 02:55 #273245

Reading the GYE book and realizing that hey, I am not crazy, just addicted to these things. And knowing that this isn't just a battle of self control, this is a serious problem that requires serious effort, serious prayers, serious precaution, and serious steps. Just like someone who isn't an alcoholic just has to be careful not to drink too much yet, an alcoholic has to be careful to never to have a drink. So too realizing the real level I am on helps me stay focused and not delude into thinking I can do certain things and nothing is going to happen. Now I know I am addicted to these things and something will for SURE happen. So it makes it a little easier to stay way.

And the attitude book really helps make this fight more successful by keeping in mind all those ideas.
And this week I am going to set some time to read some success stories from others on the site and try to learn from them.
Thanks for the support!!!
