Hey welcome to the greatest warmest family in the world.

This is the most caring family where we all care for each other.
Here you'll get to true freedom.

Most recommended move would be to reach out to HHM at michelgelner@gmail.com or any other great mentors here like MUTTEL EERIE, or all other great mentors here.
Also there's the f2f Program that will give you some training on how to conquer the beast.

Keep us posted with love akiva

Welcome to the warmest family in the world!

Here, as you have started seeing, you will find true care, concern, and warmth.
Here you will learn that you CAN break free!
There are many tools here to help you in this fight.
There is the F2F Program, the Vaad Program, the book The Battle of the Generation - many have found this very helpful in reframing the struggle.
(Captain, link again? )
There is also an extremely powerful tool of accountability, friends, and mentors, as has been mentioned, that has helped hundreds - myself included.
HHM - Hashem Help Me - is the mentor-in-chief around here. He's reachable at michelgelner@gmail.com. Eerie - 1gimpelovitz@gmail.com, Muttel - muttel15@gmail.com, and iwannalivereal - iwannalivereal@gmail.com are a great place to start!

Looking forward to seeing great things from you!
And don't forget, as always, KOMT!!

Hi,
I have started the flight to freedom program which is very inspiring and...
b"h tonight I am successfully celebrating another Victory, which is also one week streak of clean state. 
Thank you for all your support.

B"h! Yet another Victory! 
From past experience motzeh shabbos Sunday night is a cue for setback. 
Does anyone have good tips for me? 
As I have done over a week of cleaning state, I am scared to fall again. 
Please help.

Sure best tip in the world:

"Reach out to the great people here, I mean by phone all the time"

Hope your comfortable with that, it may be a bit scarry in the begining, but once you talk once and really feel that we understand you, it becomes exciting, to call.

Keep it up and keep us posted.
With love akiva.

Wow! A new warrior has joined the family! Keep up the amazing work!
A great idea that was posted recently works like this:
When we have a short-ish window of nisayoin, it is very helpful to bring somebody else into the test, that is call or text somebody before that window starts, and make up that you will text when you are past the test clean. It works wonders to bring others into our challenges, and have a sense of accountability. I, and many others, have done this, and have found it to be super effective

I can attest to the truth of that, in fact eerie has been on the receiving end of many of those texts...
