Silentbattle saved me last night...he sent me two texts while i was 'preparing' to do a sin.

He did not even know this when he texted, but he reached out to me last week and he was telling me to call him . Mind you- this was 2:00 am for me (maybe he lives in Israel so it was later for him, I dont know).

It is people like this that save people like me.

Thank you silentbattle and thank you GYEworld.

Sorry to hear that you were stuggling last night. Ya'asher Ko'ach for reaching out for help.
That takes a lot of g'vurah to stop before you acted out. Is there a list of emergency contacts we can reach out to for help when we feel weak?
Of course, when I was acting out in another adictive behavior,I never reached out for help.
