    Hello World

    I am excited about taking this challenge.

    I am recovering drug addict, ex-smoker and I am still battling anxiety and depression.
    I have currently abstained from regular drug use for 10 months, as well as quitting smoking cigarettes for 9 months.
    I have been trying to change my life for the better for all this time - but I was not really aware of the influence of PMO might have - until today, where I studied the topic extensively.

    I must say, I am intruiged and excited as the info corroborates with my existing knowledge gathered through working out, meditation, therapy and counseling.

    Maybe this is the last brick in the puzzle for me to really get my life back.
    Thank you for this opportunity.

    This is a great first step! I hope you find this forum a source for help and healing.

    The solution is not to suppress our thoughts and desires, for this would be impossible; it would be like trying to keep a pot of water from boiling by pressing down tightly on the lid. The only sensible approach is to train ourselves to observe our thoughts without following them. This deprives them of their compulsive energy and is therefore like removing the pot of boiling water from the fire.
