I know stories of people being told by rabbonim that they can use a TV in extreme circumstances; whatever you were told has zero bearing on a public forum, where the halacha lemaysoh for everyone else is that it’s assur.
Ask this rov if you should be posting that it’s allowed in general, or if you should have stipulated that YOU were given a heter based on your circumstances.
Drug addicts are told that they can use their phones to call their sponsors on shabbos; does that mean that “using a phone is allowed on Shabbos?”
It’s like what you quoted from the kiruv rabbi earlier; “just being a role model” is the rabbinic function for a kiruv rabbi, but you made it out to be as if it’s what every rov is everywhere. Same thing here – even if you received such a heter, it does not mean that the thing is permitted for anyone else, and it’s your responsibility not to teach others to do as you do when they are not under whatever circumstances you are.
