Nope but I'm hoping the mentoring will come through GYE and finding a sponsor/mentor with someone who lives locally over time. I have messaged Guard to see if he can put me in contact with anyone in London.

Doubt it will happen, but good luck

I would love to get rid of Facebook. But I have so many nice memories/pictures that I feel like I can't just delete it. I get invited to events / friend social events / Jewish events on Facebook so if I suddenly deleted it I feel like I would miss out on so much, plus its one of the only ways I use to contact lots of friends.

I believe the answer for me is limiting it, so as well as my taphsic method I have a list of precautions which I am going to PG stick to e.g. Going on FB once in morningg for 5 mins and once in evening, than i won't be carelessly browsing.

Half measures are of no avail.

Go quick to meet the guard before they remove his bear hide, as I heard the Royal decree may be passed soon to remove all avatars

Baruch Hashem 24 days clean.

Throughout the past 7 or so days I have had 6 nocturnal emissions! I have never had so many! Most of them happen without any type of dream at all, and I am certainly guarding my eyes to the best of my ability during the day, a lot more than I used to!! What's happening ?? I just feel like laughing when it happens now... I guard my eyes in the day, I say the full section of Shema, psalms etc before bed, rock under pillow, ask G-d specifically to not let me have a nocturnal emission, and BANG it happens, once twice in one night!! The only thing I have been doing differently recently is saying Tikun Haklali every day, which if anything should stop it??? so confused....hmm...

Maybe I will try and say the bed time prayers with more kavanah etc, not sure what to do apart from pray more to Hashem. obviously, Hashem is making this happen for a reason, so I'm not complaining as such, just wanting to get advice about it, maybe theres something else I should do which I am not trying.

I heard somewhere that your feet should be outside the cover?? Can anyone elaborate on that.

Thanks,

Eli

Probably just your body getting used to the idea that it isn't happening in other ways anymore. eventually the "production" will slow down and it won't happen so often. It's a pretty common thing to happen. 

Hang in there, life gets better and better

Baruch Hashem 30 days clean. Just a quick update, the Taphsic method I am using is really great. (see first page) also I have managed to get a job as a pharmacy assistant in a Hospital in London (Training to become tech) - IY'H this will be the right job for me. Should be starting in a few weeks,

Eli
