GYEMember - Please definitely keep us posted - maybe in a week or two - curious to hear how your doing.

It actually seemed to work for me as a bachur. I was masturbating nightly And made a decision to only do it on Shabbos (oneg shabbos ). I was able to keep it till marriage and then broke off completely.... 7 years later BOOM!
I was back worst than ever.
So maybe it can work in conjunction with a real plan.


Can you please explain me how you managed not to masturbate till Shabbos?
 *  NO, It's not all or nothing, just every bit counts!
 *  I failed yesterday, and I might fail tomorrow. But just for today I'm going to give it a try.
 *  Being curios made me lust and get into trouble.

Probably a combo of self will and pas bsalo. But I stress, it's not a long term solution I was just suppressing it like a jack- in- the- box.

But it's hard to get into recovery when we keep falling so maybe it can help someone get weaned off and start real recovery. Maybe.

My main thread is under "What else should I try?."

I am touched by your care for me.
