hi all, just checking in, the couple 5 days were smooth, thanks to the home security & safe internet I've applied recently, but I feel unmotivated to do the required daily tasks like reading, exercising, and learning new things, every time when i think about one of these task i get overwhelmed and get angry like I have no mental well power to do it.
We have each other in the group, but in the end we are alone and responsible to fix ourselves. P is a lie and unpleasant all around. The escape leads to chains but you are breaking free. You’ve got it brother!!!
Merry Christmas group and lurkers! If you don’t celebrate, have a great day too! Habit and the illusion of escape are the enemies I know I face. It’s silly.
hi all I'm checking in today, I realized that whenever a problem or a bad thing happens in my life I tend to think about relapsing the first thing, anyone has a technique on how to cope with bad moments in life?
Wish I had something insightful words of wisdom, but here I am with 2 days. Hoping the new year will be a more aware and intentional one. Have some easily attainable goals which include reading, playing guitar, working out, cooking, and communicating better with my wife. Whether they help me achieve the no PMO goal remains to be seen, but I'm sure it doesn't hurt to aim for some self improvement along the way.
preparing for a clean slate on 2022, i even got myself a calendar so I can to check my victory days , wish you all luck on 2022
mental willpower is a real thing, and scientifically proved, the frontal cortex in an addict's brain is numbed and that part of the brain is responsible for logic, well power, and handling stress. in my case I want to be a successful person and own my own business, but this goal requires will power more than I can handle in my present status, so if do hard work for a long time in order to pursue my goal I will mentally burn out very quick, that's why overworking is one of the reasons we relapse
Checking in New Year's Eve Friday. Hope you all had an amazing time over the Christmas holidays and I wish you all a prosperous New Year, God bless. Current streak 2 days., Let's go 2022!!
Checking in. Temptations recently returned out of nowhere, but luckily disappeared. Staying busy as well as talking things out have helped a lot. Trying to see the positive and focusing on what I can do. Things should hopefully improve in the new year and I wish you all the absolute best. Here's to a much better 2022. Cheers!
Hi artifact and all, I’d love to return to the group when there’s room for me. Thanks a lot! Happy 2022 all!
just relapsed, it's funny how my brain remembers P in each aspect of my life, I guess I relapsed a long time ago before this when I was overworking and had guilt for thinking I'm not good enough.
I completely agree. I usually relapse after I push myself too hard or stress out too much. We need to find healthy ways to relax and reward ourselves.
