I'm a fan of Dostoievsky too. I think we are like Raskolnikov (don't remember how to write that name) in a certain point. Struggling with world and its unfairness.
The group is currently full but I can add you to the waiting list. There are currently 12 other people on the list, so it will be at least a few months before we have an opening for you. Reply to this comment to be added to the list.
That is great advice. My problem is that I give in to easily. I'm ready to fight this time and get into the mindset of "giving in isn't an option."
Interesting. I haven't read the brothers karamazov but will someday. I chose the name Raskolnikov because, like him, I felt like I committed a crime (in my case, over and over) and I finally realized it was affecting so much of my life. The anxiety and lack of self-confidence started to take its toll. Eventually, Raskolnikov couldn't deal with it either - he came clean and served his time. I hope that I don't go back. I know life is better without PMO.
Checking in, and feeling better. I was in dark spot there for a couple days! Obsession overload! I've been staying busy and focused today, and got a lot accomplished so far. How about that lol! Hope you all are having a good weekend
I feel I've commited the same crime over and over, and I feel like Raskolnikov too. Amazing book, btw.
You've had long streaks before so you know that you can do it! You're also quite dedicated to this. Keep Going!
@control your life we have an opening in the group for you. Reply to this comment if you are still interested in re-joining.
Checking in, coming to end of Day 3. I know it's early but I am feeling positive about this run. Keep marching on!
Checking in. Like despicable, not much to say. Just glad I'm not overrun with urges as I'm home alone with not much to do today.
Yes I would like back in when possible. I guess I was thinking a month, so I went 30 days without checkin in. Thanks.
Day 6 check in. I think it’s been a little while since I made it past 9 days.... maybe less than that. Little urges and thoughts to do the things that start the chains of events that lead PM but I’m aware of how negative is. It’s front and center in my mind so I’ve been able to shoot that down. Just focused on making it through the night.
