This post is a little sad, so be cautious if you read this. I fail again, and again, and again, and again. Every time I fail, it feels even harder to bounce back. I can even hold for fucking 2 or 3 days now. I mean, how bad is that? I workout, I do a lot of things. But apparently is not enough. I will need to fight harder. But my body and mind seeks comfort. I don’t know what I really seek with this post. I’m close to give up, but I also know that giving up isn’t a option. I mean why, did I even sign in on this app? Because I wanted to quit this shit! But… I keep failing. Somehow I think there is a deeper issue, it’s not just because I’m addicated. It is something else, something I have an idea about, but not know for sure. I wish that I could speak with a person eye to eye. But I don’t really know who. If you have any advice, please give it. I hope my post wasn’t too sad.

Have you tried real authentic connection and love. Can you admit you need those? Can you admit you're distracting Yu ourself from those needs? Stop shitting on yourself.

Brother I hear you. I started the app today, but I have tried to quit before in the past and never found success. I go maybe 2-3 days without it, and relapse after an impulsive decision. I always would tell myself “just one more time and I’ll be done for good” or “it’s been a few days I earned it” and those thoughts always turned into more and more. We need to realize that the “last time” really needs to be the last time, or else we’re doomed. What gets me is boredom. When I’ve finished working out, I’m off of work, and at home alone, I get the urge. To combat the urges, make a check list of hobbies or tasks. For me, I’ve really gotten into reading more. I’ll work out, try to walk 10k steps a day, read for at least an hour, or watch YouTube videos to occupy my mind. Occupying your mind being the key. I hope things get better for you brother. We both got this.

I have found that having a conversation with someone about it helped me, it took me a while to talk but once i did it felt so much lighter and gave me the strength to keep going. There will be people in your life that you can tell and that will want to talk with you to help you out. Also i have found that my addiction is connected to other much deeper stuff which talking about has also been very helpful in working through
