It has become difficult to get back up since my last relapse (Did it again on Diwali of all days!!). Apathy has taken control of my mind again. It's like i don't even care anymore. Thought it was going well before, and it was, but now, i don't know.
I'm trying to find a group, like a 12-step program. Anyone knows if such a group exists? Please let me know. I currently live in chennai, my family lives in delhi and i usually meet them during summer and winter breaks. If there are 12-step groups in delhi or chennai or anywhere around india?
To be honest, i can't do this alone anymore. I can't confide in anyone unless i've reached a healthy level of sobriety again. And if i have to find a lasting freedom from PMO, i believe it is through Connection with others. Not just online but in real life. "Opposite of addiction is connection", as they say in the 12-step program.
I've been reading Russell Brand's Book on Addiction recovery, and highly recommend it for everyone in this group.
So please, if anyone knows about the existence of such a group, share it in this thread and we can all take advantage of it. Thanks for taking time to read this long post. And..
Belated happy diwali to all my brothers here!!

@Sleepingwarror, are you part of this 12-step group? I need some info on it. Testimonials, feedback from past members. Thanks for info BTW. Appreciate it!

Do not binge, Do not binge, DO not binge! It burns off all the acquired benefits and puts you back into the pit of PMO. Do not make the same mistake I've been making all throughout the past three years. If you feel the urges, post a message here telling why you won't give in to your urges. Then maybe the guilt of relapsing might overcome the urges(sounds silly but still why not try it, it worked for me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

Stop relapsing again and again just because you did it once. Just because you tripped a little doesn't mean that you have t drop back to the start of the mountain. I know that mere words and philosophy aren't very concrete to beat this giant addictive monster but still try to stay motivated at all times. Good luck! Let's make it new year completely sober :')
