streekgeek-
First of all, what is UP with your subtitle? Why does it change every day? Second, you’re so special to work with handicapped children! I almost cried when I read what that lil girl said… She must have such a special neshama- to live with all that pain when she’s only two! I wish I could just hug her… I’m really trying to do more chessed. In fact, I just signed up to a weekly chessed thingy! I’m so excited. You know, a females primary role in life is to bring kedusha to the world through chessed and tznius. I find tznius a big challenge because growing up, my mom and sisters always wore really tight, short stuff… But I LOOOOOVE doing chessed. It makes me feel so good about myself 🙂
As for the speech, Hashem knew that you’re strong enough to stop even without hearing a brilliant speech- that’s amazing! Anyways you managed to stop so don’t feel sad. Please. Have a restful peaceful spiritual Shabbos!
Shopping-
Don’t feel like you’re disconnected! I mean, I’m not fortunate enough to know you in real life but from reading your posts I get the feeling that you’re really spiritual. I also have a hard time with textual davening… Pretty much everyone I speak to about this tells me the same thing so please don’t feel bad. It’s great that you talk to Hashem! There are so many people that don’t have a personal connection with Hashem. They just live a frum life but they aren’t doing it for Hashem, they’re just doing it because it’s convenient. I try to daven for them every day because it’s so sad! About chizzuk hotlines- I always listen to those! I’m kinda obsessed. Kol Halashon, Chazzak, Inspire By Wire… The people that run those hotlines have got such amazing things waiting for them in the next world. So jealous. And about brachos- I thought I was the only one with that issue! I usually remember the bracha before eating but almost never bracha acharona… I feel so guilty! Oh well, another thing to work on… Have an awesome Shabbos!
OURtorah-
You didn’t seem that way at all! You came across as your usual amazing self. Your advice is very true. I have been looking for someone like that. When my parents are in bad moods, all I want to do is get out of the house! It would be amazing to have a place where I could just hang out… But a mentor wouldn’t like adopt me the way I wish… Really, I’m worried I’ll over impose which is why I don’t have a mentor. Also because…how do you get someone like that? I dunno, really conflicted about that… But thanks for your advice, I thought of it every time I passed a teacher in the school halls today 🙂
MODS-
I’m truly sorry- I was really obnoxious yesterday. Please forgive me, you guys/ gals are so nice to do this in your free time. And I really appreciate that you guys read through my post and fixed it up so it can be posted instead of just not approving it! Bli neder I won’t do stuff like that anymore. Have a good Shabbos!
kapusta- Thank you for your post. I don’t think that therapy will work with my life right now, but I’m sure somewhere out there, some other issue filled person was helped by your post. You’re so amazing! Thank you!
streekgeek- I’m so glad that shiur inspired you! I’m obsessed with R’ Wallerstein- he’s an amazing person. This Chanuka I cried every day and stared into the candles every night( I heard that the chanuka neiros have the power to cleanse your neshama of impure things). And I’m so sad Chanukah is over!! I felt so connected to Hashem the whole time. Chanukah is a one of a kind chag, don’t you think? I’m trying to do more chessed these days… You’re right- the feeling a person gets from helping others is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!
OURtorah- Right now, all I want to do is just be NORMAL so I’m not going to cry to anyone about my parents. What I’m working on is appreciating my parents. They are the people Hashem knows are best for me. There are tons of people with parents that are a lot worse than mine! Hopefully, next year Chanuka I’ll have a good relationship with them… Thank you for your post- even though I will not be using your advice, your caring shown through.
Goq, I would’ve responded earlier if only I’d SEEN this earlier. 🙁
You are the kindest, funniest, most caring guy ever. And anyone who says you’re not doesn’t know you. If you want proof of that- usually on these kinds of threads there’s always some moron that says something to the extent of- well at least you know it! But I looked through this thread and there wasn’t ONE idiot saying that. You are one of the posters that make me wish I knew them in three dimensional life. If you’re “different” or you “stick out” it’s because you are one of those real human beings that are so special they make everyone jealous.
I’m running outa the house in a minute for my schools chagiga, so I can’t write too much- just wanna say-
Shopping- You are AMAZING!!!!! I’m jealous of everyone that is priveleged to know you in real life. I mean it, you’re awesome. Hashem is def shepping tonza nachas from you.
Shucks, I gtg.

K, you’re right. This is the official end of my posting my life story here. It’s wrong of me to use something made for fun and games and turn it into something that makes people sad. Do you forgive me?
Yes, but that’s not why it’s wrong. Your life story is private. It is also against YWN policies to post information that makes it possible to track down a poster. – 127
Popa’s answer sounds right, I think…
Nechama and Leah are sooooooooooooo cute! How on earth did Nechama sing that song?! It goes soooo high. That girl is awesome.
Shopping- Have you ever spilled your life story here? I’ve never seen it… I guess the mods are really fast! Thanks for pointing out that I shouldn’t be embarassed abt crying during davening. I’m usually not like that, but I guess I just want to look normal after everything that happened withmy dad. I just want them to forget about it and think of me as a typical high cchooler! Which is prbly not going to happen… Look, at least I’m trying!
OURtorah- The last time I tried doing that the person told everyone. Please stop posting stories or I will just delete the post. -127 I don’t want t o try again. I want to…. I dunno. I just want to wake up one bright morning and find that all my symptoms have disappeared. Whatevs….
mod 29 is so cute! He/She’s great at coming up with subtitles!
streek- THANK YOU for that post! I’ve been really worried lately about just the stuff you were saying- not being able to stop thinking about that stuff. I hope it’ll all go away by the time I’m your age. It’s not so much the images I remember, it’s the stories- I feel like they’ll be in my brain forever… And I always think of them at the worst times! During davening, on Shabbos, while giving a shiur in camp on the parsha… It’s awful! I heard a shiur by I think R’ Wallerstein, x sure, in which the speaker said that the soton doesn’t want you to be a ble to bring kedusha into the world and so whenever you are, he brings bad thoughts to your mind. If the person he’s distracting has a history with the internet, then it’s really easy for him to stop us! He just makes us think of the stuff we’ve seen and done and then we lose hope and stop bringing kedusha into the world. That shiur really helped me! I really admire you for having the strength to break outa your habit. By me it was more of an addiction than a habit, dunno about you. It seems I used the dark side of the internet to escape my issues instead of facing them… But B”H Hashem gave me the courage to stop. Life is harder without the constant distraction but it was def worth it.
CUSTARD!!!!!!!!
Yum.
HEY!!!!
Way to make me feel guilty…
Do I really make the mods jobs hard?!
awww…….
<sniffle>
The little I know-
Daven for that person to find better ways to get attention. And for him to acquire social skills somehow…
MOD 127-
OK, I get that. Thanks.
As for your suggestion about therapy, thanks for caring. You’re really nice.
My pleasure. I’m sorry you’re going through such a hard time, and hope it only gets better.
OURtorah-
I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE your new subtitle! It’s so you!
I’m jealous ^_^;
MOD 127
I wish you hadn’t done that, but I’ll trust you on this one that it’s for my own good. Can I try reposting that with even less details? Cuz I feel really bad- it’s like I’m playing with these peoples feelings and not telling them what happened in the end…
You don’t owe anyone anything. Especially not private details about your life. Especially on an online forum. Feel free to blame us mods for deleting posts that have compromising personal details. You can just say that B”H things are doing better, without specifics, and we’ll be happy for you. On another note, I’d like to suggest that you look into options which would allow you to get therapy free or very cheap.
lil froggie-
What might that be?

K FINALLLLLLY!!!!!
School is really way too much sometimes (always)…
My dad was in a good mood for a few days after that but then his old nature came through and he’s back to his cursing/ controlling self. I like this part of him more than the depressed dude that he was when he was in trouble with the law, but it’s still real hard having him as a parent and having to witness all he does first hand and still be obligated in kibud av. My sis is in therapy cuz of the strain he’s having on her but I’m not working, thus I don’t have the money to do so myself. Too bad, I’ll have to hold out on my own I guess…. BH life is back to normal which isn’t really normal but… the usual.
And I want to take this opportunity and thank all the wonderful people that posted such long messages even though they’ve never even met me in real life. Thank you for not jugding me, oh gosh i gtg. I’ll continue this soon.
What happened with higuys is something that no one on the cr can judge ateres for. We don’t know why they did what they did, we don’t have ANY real info. So if you were thinking of going to ateres and you changed your mind because of this, please don’t. We don’t know what went on there and we cannot judge.
And as a side note-
higuys, you just made it very easy for someone to discover your true identity…
lil froggie-
WHY? A subtitle is an amazing thing. And yours tells anyone that looks at it that
1. you’re sensitive and caring cuz you’re wishing everyone a happy chanuka
2. ur funny as can be seen by the hOppy part.
3. The moods think highly of you! You’ve been here for just one month and already you’ve been granted a subtitle!
So be hoppy 😉
My sister lost her Dor Yesharim number too and they gave it to her after she gave them her ss number… And that happened just this year!
popa-
Uh uh.

Hey streek and shopping!
I really missed you guys… 🙁
I’m so sorry you were worried about me, shopping! I should have posted that I was going on a lil break… So sorry!
I was gone cuz I decided that Chanuka is a time to grow and be close to Hashem, not waste my time on the internet. So I decided no more internet for me till Chanuka is ova! But… on the first night of Chanuka I cheated. And I don’t know if you remember, shopping, and it was probly b4 streek’s times that I did this, but a while ago I started a thread in which I mentioned that I have issues with self control sometimes on the internet. And on the first night of Chanuka, I slipped for the first time in 5 months. You can’t even imagine how awful I felt. I cried myself to sleep that night and the next morning at school I cried during Shacharis too. Hope no one realized…. Yikes. But now I feel closer to Hashem than ever before! K, just sharing that- not sure why… Anways, I stayed off the internet for the rest of Chanuka!!! Until now, that is. 🙁
Look at least I tried, right?
I am IYH going to update that thread right now, shopping! finally!!!!!!!!!! BH for Chanuka vacation, right?
So glad I’m back, I really missed the cr.
Hey lil froggie!
OMIGOSH you got a subtitle while I was away! Congrats! It’s kinda cute 🙂
Hi streekgeek,
lol that’s really funny! Is that a permanent change?
I’m sorry things didn’t work out the way you’d hoped.
Stay strong!
I reacted by cracking up. 🙂
BTW- wats up with streekgeek? Haven’t seen her post in a while…
Where is ThePurpleOne? She sounds like a party! I wish she’d post these days…
That book was traumatizing! I was shaking for hours after I’d finished it! It made me cry tonz. Are there really people going through this pain?! I mean, I always knew that some parents are abusive, but having it all down on paper… Wow. One thing it accomplished was that I now appreciate my family. Kudos to Shoshana Mael!
OURtorah-
(((((())))))) sending hugs to you where ever you are. I will bli neder have you in mind during my shemona esrei tommorow. Stay strong, Hashem is at your side! Have you ever read the poem about footprints in the sand? I don’t have the poem with me right now, but basically the story goes like this-
There was once a person who died and went up to shamayim. There he saw his whole life flash before him by the sea. Whenever times were good, he saw two sets of footprints in the sand. However, when times were rough, he only saw one set. At the end of the viewing, he turned to Hashem and asked, “Hashem, during my good times you were always with me, but when I needed you most, why did you leave me alone?” Hashem replied, “my beloved child, who I love more than anything, it was during those times that I was carrying you.
I hope things go well!!!!!!
Can we please have a name to daven for? I will bli neder have him in mind when davening tommorow morning. Please let us know if the outcome is good.
live right-
No. It’s not. Because it’s letting me teach you basic decency. Think abt what you’d feel like right now if you were Shopping. Think twice before typing. That comment was rude.
OK, done. Now how awesome am I on a scale of 1-10?
HINT: 10.
Lost-
I’m so sorry things are looking bad. Keep your head up! Life is a roller coaster ride- if you go low down, you’re going to spring up and go really high someday. Look ahead and know your value. Hashem loves you.
Well, someone’s loved….
Hey Shnitzy!
I’m so sorry I haven’t updated you guys. That was really mean of me…. It’s just that life is so insanely busy and I literally don’t have enough time to post anything more than a three sentence post like this one. IYH, I’ll post something on either Friday or Sunday- that’s when I have free time. Probobly not till Monday… So sorry!
MODS-
You’re welcome
LAB-
Firstly, congrats on your new subtitle!
Just wanna say you’ve got lots of talent.
Shopping-
This imitation can fool no one. Your charicteristic ( paging spell check- SOS!) sweetness can never be copied.
😉
When I get my degree in social working, I’m going to use this as my advertising line. Thanks for the inspiration, Shopping!
Whaaaaa?
I don’t have pationce to google this stuff so I guess I’m destined to be lost in this confusing world of yiddish forever… 🙁
always runs-
I doubt mochelli is abusive/ controlling. If he would be, he wouldn’t have cared enough abt the fact that his wife feels she isn’t getting enough money to start a thread about it. Does that sound right?

justsayin-
Search joseph on the cr search engine- you’ll get a lot of threads. He’s basically the master troll in this place. Psycho, loser, all that…
AHHH!!!! I feel so priveleged! Thank you, thank you… I’ll run along now and write my acceptance speech.
Hey, can I become a member? I only have one screen name… What does coffee-mail mean? Goodness, don’t I feel left out 🙁
