    Good evening all! I hope everyone's week is off to a fantastic start!

    I have been having problems with allowing myself simple pleasure that are not PMO related such as wine, a hot shower, snacks (relatively healthy, if its chocolate I try and keep it dark). Old vices have no place in my current day to day (like video games, drinking more than I should, and binge watching TV [I still watch shows {The Expanse rocks!}]). It seems that if I allow myself a little pleasure I happen to fall off a cliff. Just looking for any advice or similar experiences and how the situation was managed.

    Have a great night everyone!

    I’ve found that there is some freedom in restraint from pleasure. It still isn’t easy but it can make the path ahead more clear

    I feel the same. Seemingly every pleasure that I want to do, is not productive towards rebooting.
