Thank you so much for this message, lamaazavtuni. I don’t have the words to describe the benefits of this kind of message. With every message of support, I feel less alone in facing these challenges. When the urges come, I think about the people on this forum who help others, those who manage to overcome their struggles, or those who are going through difficulties but refuse to give up. It gives me more strength to fight back.
For example, this Shabbat was difficult at certain moments, but by keeping these thoughts in mind, everything seemed easier, which helped me overcome the urge much more easily.
Also, this Sunday, a similar urge came in the late afternoon, but instead of staying on my phone, isolating myself from others, and withdrawing into my own corner, I turned off my phone and went to spend time with my wife and children.
Thank you to everyone who gives hope to others.
Day 4 clean!!
