Shvisi

Saying it like it is, is the way to go
"ill take credit for my self today"

Tomorrow I'll add 1 detail to the equation, Keep On Trucking till then (and on...)

Welcome brother

Keep us posted you're on a good road, just be careful because driving on the shoulder can wear down your tires


KEEP ON TRUCKING ;-)

I agree,
thanks for the chizuk.
I would add (after being here a few years) that settings days might make it even harder.

I won't and can't give advice, I'm just doing whats good for me. 
I'm very active, I work, I'm busy, help at home, even though.....  I'm learning to deal with (out) it.
crying blaming isn't going to help, life is short and we got to keep on trucking.

wishing you all a great year.

Welcome brother

You gotta listen more to dov. His clarity is amazing

As I understand he defines Sex Addiction simply - like any other addiction. For example Alcohol. Many people can enjoy a beer or 2. Some can get drunk on Purim and Simchas Torah and not any other time. An addict however cannot stop and once the 1st sip is downed it's downhill from there

I don't think I'm an addict. But the tools for breaking free are not 1 size fits all. Many can gain from the same meds that addicts take. For a very small minority a big Taphsic fence is sufficient. But it's not for most of us.

You're on a good road pal

Keep on Trucking ;-)

Tool #1 (Stopping) can be a peeling period for many, when the underlying motor is revealed, since ESC was hibernated

How does your motor look today?

KEEP ON TRUCKING ;-)

Wow Mayan, sounds like you're going through a really difficult time. Hopefully, the following will help a bit. It's ok if you're sleeping now, this is for when you wake up.

  מודה אני לפניך מלך חי וקיים
I am thankful before You, living & everlasting King
שהחזרת בי נשמתי בחמלה,
That you returned into me my soul, with compassion.
רבה אמונתך
Your faith (in me) is great!

When you say מודה אני in the morning, you can translate it as it's translated above. (Even if you already said it today, say it again, but slowly, with concentration.)

We all know the Hashem is the Ultimate everything. With regards to the greatness of faith, regardless of what the faith is directed at, however great anybody's faith is, Hashem's is infinitely greater.
In מודה אני, we say how Hashem(❗) has faith in us. Not just faith, but great faith❗

Now, if Hashem, who has the greatest ability for faith, if He believes in me, who am I not to believe in myself? Even if I don't believe in myself, does it really matter? The truth clearly is that I CAN do it, for if that weren't the case, Hashem wouldn't have faith in us.

Mayan, however broken your truck is, however much you consider yourself unworthy, this morning, our loving Father returned your soul to you knowing that today you will have challenges. He knows that today you're going to be tempted. He knows when & how you'll be tempted. Yet, the Master of the universe also knows how strong you are, even more than you know it. He believes that you're able to succeed today. If you don't feel that way, perhaps consider talking to Him about it.

Abba is waiting to see your success, you can do this!
It may be really difficult right now, but tell me: have you ever succeeded in the past when it was extremely difficult?

הצלחה אחי❗
If you already have God rooting for you, I seriously don't know if it makes any difference, but I'm rooting for you too!

Thanks

Ok great!

Others have come here asking for advice how to fix others, e.g. Family they messed up, but themselves wasn't in the equation

Hey, taking it minute by minute sounds like things are tough

Addicts can do with living ODAAT
Non addicts can do with whiteknuckling One Week at a time 

Keep On Trucking ;-)

Do not stop at go. do not collect 200. keep on trucking one mile at a time.
