This seems to be helping speak less LH

I heard from a source that I consider to be very reliable that in the Oilam HaEmes when you get there that the mitzvois and aveirois you get don't match up with what you did because if you speak LH about someone they get your mitzvois and you get their aveirois.

I completely believe this to be true because of who said it.

So now when I am seething mad at someone I no longer want to speak LH about then like I did previously because the last thing I want to do is give them my mitzvois.

In the zechus of my sharing this may we all merit to do many many mitzvois and all merit the most beautiful place in Oilam HaBa. Also may I stop ever feeling seething mad at people.

Mmmm. Then better not bother with other mitzvot if LH is a weakness.

Nope.

I don't understand. Are you being sarcastic?

I don't want to counteract anything that prevents you from speaking LH but even so for accuracy sake (1)It is a opinion mentioned in a medrash, not a universally accepted halacha (2)even that opinion isn't referring to a situation of speaking LH on someone on a one time basis.

I've learned this in the Chofetz Chaim book and I find it very depressing. According to this idea, I may as well go out an eat a cheeseburger, because I've already lost all of my mitzvos, I have all the other person's aveiros, so why bother doing anymore Mitzvos?

Well for one thing you'll still have your aveiros for eating a cheeseburger.

But anyway as Leah233 said it means a situation of constantly talking LH and badmouthing someone. Not a lapse here and there. But if you do find yourself constantly speaking LH about someone don't risk it...
