I fell again this morning. It really really sucks. I feel terrible and so ashamed of myself.

[p]I think it happened because I was feeling depressed from yesterday and because I no longer had the taphsic method in effect, so the deterrence wasn’t really there for me. I just feel so bad. The last few days have been a big downward spiral. But, all failures can be followed by a new beginning. From now on I am going to post every day that I can because I really need the accountability. We are going to have to take it one day at a time. If anyone has any suggestions for me I would be happy to hear them!

Day 0,

Best of luck!

Just fyi you don't have to make a new thread each time (although you can if you want) its just sometimes its helpful to look back at ur whole thread to see how far you've came and your ups and downs and what worked, didn't work, etc.

Think about how good you'll feel if you say no to desire and compare that to how bad you'll feel if you say yes.

Desire is unique in the way that it is never fulfilled - if you give in the desire comes back even more powerful in just a few days. Telling yourself that its ok because this is really the last time doesn't work because you are just adding new images to your head that will cause future falls.

The Joy of triumph over the yetzer hara is worth the effort it takes to win. It IS worth it! Keep fighting!

I've been keeping myself relatively busy the past few days and plan on further packing my calendar in the coming weeks so that there will be no time for boredom. So far no big urges...they usually hit by day 8-9 though so I am coming into the first wave extremely cautious...
