My friend's sponsor would almost be happy when my buddy would act out with his lust. He would say, "Well, now you have a precious opportunity to look inside deeply and see what is missing in you - what pains are vexing you and distracting you from real life and leading you to act out!" And they'd sit down and do just that.

Not to prevent another relapse, but to do what recovery is for! Our masturbation and porn use are not our real, actual problem - but just a symptom of the real problem we have. Uncover, discover, and discard is the program Hashem has for us.

Talk to an Izhbitzer Chusid. They know. Hashem works through everything - sometimes especially through our falls. It's not over at all. A new layer is really just beginning for you now.

Love,

Dov

Checking in. Not such easy going, but still going. At times I feel a lot of support, at others abandoned, disconnected. At times I can utilize my strength to pull through, and then I find myself trying to grasp at it, but coming up without. Keeping awareness of what is really going on for me is not an easy task and I can only hope to continue practicing the skill and becoming better at it. I am clean for three days and I am feeling some lust urges.

Sturggle Current streak: 178 days OFFLINE Platinum Boarder Posts: 1706 Karma: 1	That today was has passed, but if I recall, it was a good day. Today, things are good, B"H. I feel good. I thank HKB"H for that. Remembering that I when I don't feel good I can turn to Him as well. Dov, thanks for that conversation we had a while back. I've been thinking about it since and it has helped me focus in.

Very true. I'm learning the same. But, why do we have to learn it the hard way?
