One day at time (again!) 20 Nov 2017 14:44 #322625

Dear all,

This is not my first time here. A few months ago, I tried one more time and I really reach 45 days clean. It was great! I was living a great moment in my life. I was not ashamed at all. And for many weeks I was totally involved in my sobriety and being grateful to Hashem, but I failed...

I was so depressed... Since than it's being very hard to get just one day clean…

Today would be my second day clean! It’s a small victory, but I am glad. I know I can’t control my future or even my addiction, but I am/will trying to manage my sobriety. ODAAT, I know it.

I have a good friend from GYE helping me on my journey (I think I could call him a sponsor!) and I am reading Rav Twerski’s book “Teshuvah through recovery”. Hope this forum could be another form to be engaged and not be alone in this journey…

Hi Guys,
I saw Yesterday an inspiring piece from Reb Tzodek Hacohen of Lublin, and let me share it:


מי שיש לו תשוקה גדולה לתאות הגוף, אל יתעצב בזה לחשוב כמה פגום הוא שיש לו תשוקה כ"כ. כי אדרבא הוא כלי מוכן לתוקף אהבת ותשוקת דרישת האמת. וכמו שנחמו ההוא סבא לאביי (בסוכה נ"ב.) וע"ז אמרו, דלעת"ל צדיקים נדמה להם יצה"ר כהר ורשעים כחוט השערה ואינו שקר רק שניהם אמת כי לאלו תשוקתם ותאותם עצומה ביותר, עכ"ל. (צדקת הצדיק לר"צ הכהן מלובלין אות מ"ד)

Welcome back. It's nice to live sober, isn't it? My worse day in sobriety is better than my best day in active addiction. 

Keep coming and posting and working with your sponsor. You help him too!
Much Hatzlacha!
