Hi Everyone,

I first started with masterbating in high-school. It started here and there and eventually tuned into everyday. Throughout my 4 years of bais medrash I continued masterbating almost everyday and always wanted to stop. I tried so many times but it usually only lasted a day or 2. Now I’ve been married for a year, am learning in kollel, and have a baby on the way and I just want it all to stop. I am optimistic about this program and hope it will help me finally break free. Thanks for reading.

Welcome to forum! It's great to have you on board with us.

Before finding out about GYE, I was also stuck struggling without any end and I thought that it would be impossible to break free. Although I'm still fighting, I've been able to break free from masturbation and I've made progress that I previously thought was impossible. There are many resources here that will help you tremendously and will b'ezrat HaShem give you the tools necessary to break free completely, like the new flight to freedom program here that you've probably already seen.

B'hatzalacha!

I’m in the same stage as you! You came to an amazing place. I’ve only been here for a bit. But already I’ve seen results, albeit small ones, that I couldn’t have imagined. I found that it is great to share a lot about yourself so people can give you tips and chizzuk that’s more detailed and direct. And it also helps get things out of your head and into writing, which is great for dealing with a challenge.

I just wanted to comment and let you know that if you stay connected here your chances of putting this behind you are tremendous. I was hooked on stuff for decades and I am now bli ayin hara clean for five months. I would not have been able to go a month without GYE.

I also highly recommend the book the battle of the generation it has become my best friend and I read a chapter every night.

The Battle of the Generation by Hillel S. has been a huge help for me. Message me to find out how you can receive a free copy.

some of the experiences I write about may make it easier to identify me. This is ok. I trust that if anyone discovers my identity they will keep it to themselves. If you do realize that you know me, I am completely comfortable and welcome you acknowledging me and my struggle in person.
