Hello and back on topic...what are you doing about P&M?

And on dating I know there is a trend for singles to go to therapists that focus on dating have you considered that? Despite what you share with us here...

What am I doing? Let's see.

I am focusing on work, I am making sure I learn every evening, I am trying to make minyan.

My plan is to replace P&M with positive and constructive actions.

When I feel urges I breath and and repeat to myself "I am not lust, but lust is a part of me, only God has control over me."

And as to therapy? How about... No? I went to therapy for a few months and it helped me realise some things.

Look being down i normal, we have ups and downs and that's life.

I am not taking this too seriously because I took it too seriously for 10 years and it hasn't helped. So I will crack jokes and focus on why I am awesome and actually on my way to being an eved hashem.

Now "connected" you got some nerve stealing that kids pen!

Thanks. Also, I'm sorry but I hadn't realized this isn't your first thread. Looking back at your other posts gives me some more context.

You seem like a deep thinker, so if you're interested here's another data point about Yiddishkeit. It's in Hebrew a shiur from Rav Pincus on true kabbalas ol malchus shamayim and kriyas shema. It's really intense but really helped with my perspective on Yiddishkeit.
