I'm at a loss for words!!!

I decided to post my questions after pushing it off for weeks and the love & support is second to none, I'm sobbing as write this!!! 

I'm not using Instagram for girls just for mindless scrolling (we all know what happens when doing that) but guess what, I've been on here for 3 days and today I UNINSTALLED INSTAGRAM!!! It's a huge step for me and I'm sure it'll be hard but I won't give up thanks to you guys. 

I will be sticking around here and reading all the wonderful stories 

​Stay strong!

Amazing! Hate to bring in a bit of rain, but do you have an alternative to whatever instagram was doing for you?

ASHRECHA! 

I feel privileged to be amongst such mighty warriors!
Scrolling and browsing is what many of us share in common... the sacrifice is hard but the opportunity is massive! 

Have us all in mind! Keep flying!

Heroic act!  Maybe post some more about your challenges so people can respond....

WOW!!! I did not expect to see this announcement so fast. Hero is an understatement!

Please stick around with us and keep sharing your own wonderful story as well.

Thanks for sharing.

I actually don't, it was very hard for me yesterday when I had some spare time, I hope to find something I can do to keep myself busy, maybe something that's productive as well, I'm having a hard time finding things I like doing (read a book? Nope), I know some people won't get it but that is a huge part of my struggle 

I think this is the result of sharing and talking to other people who struggle with the same things, I'm an extremely closed person and I've never shared anything about myself with anyone, heck, I remember sitting in front of a therapist and just not saying a word (I was pushed to go by a relative).

So yes, I've shared something about myself here for the first time, although anonymously but still, and the love and support is beautiful, maybe this will help me open up a little bit. 

So uninstalling Instagram and hopefully keeping it that way only works because of the support and connection 

Thank you all! 

Kol hakavod! Amazing! you are an inspiration to us all!

There's the sur mera, but it needs to accompanied with an aseh tov to be successful. I've started reading the book "The battle of the Generation" (thanks to Vehkam), it's a game changer in terms of changing one's perspective about this nisayon. The oilam here is very into it. I highly recommend you jump on the bandwagon. Here's the link for the online version: guardyoureyes.com/ebooks/item/the-battle-of-the-generation

Keep on inspiring us!

I know the feeling, I have a believe that I'm a quite and closed person although it's not quite true, It's actually mainly my addiction that caused me to escape from people and closing up due to the fear of my innermost secret being exposed. I'm working on courage to open up despite the vulnerability and fear because I know that if I wont create the change for myself, nobody will. Brother, I know it's hard but you need some courage. I'll pray for you to get it.

All the best!
