What is true and what I think don't neccesarily match, unless I ask our loving Father in Heaven to get me into reality. He only seems to help when i work together with loving brothers trying to stay sane with me. Thanks for being there Dovele.

The alternative is one long farshtukene rough patch....It invovles a complete arrogance and thinking just about me.

I am and was a nacissist. I was a sweet, charismatic, nice and smiley but really just an a**hole looking out for myself and trying to control everything and everyone around me with my charm etc. Now I have a few good patches here and there where I am starting to act like a normal Human Being. Progress not perfection for today.

Hey there,

can I please borrow your head, they say "Two heads are better than one."


The scary parts in my head are selfish and only want to stay by me they couldn't care less about you. Same for the one's in your head....However the beautiful and holy parts in my head sure do care about you so it's two against one when we get together with someone else.

Since November 24 we didn't get any posts from the Humanbeing. Is there a good reason why? Should we worry about him? Did he zoom ahead & leave us behind in a cloud of dust?

I was depressed and acting out every few day. I've gotten a proper sponsor and I'm working the Steps again. I'm in middle of Step 2 - Been sober and healthy since Friday (10 Teves) with Hashem's blessing and care. Thanks for asking Tzadik.

I believe that Hasehm wil help me by taking away my desire to lust when I ask him and in general to take away my compulsion to want to escape from reality every time I face something emotionally painful. He will do this every time I ask him to.

Step # 2
