Could Use Some Help Today

I have been super stressed lately and all I want to do is resort back to my old ways, watch some videos, and get off a few times. I went to sleep thinking about it and woke up picking up where I left off. I came close to breaking last night and I am trying to hold on so I can eventually be better but right now I am left alone very briefly and its the only thing on my mind. I have been free since Saturday but I am pretty close to losing my grip again. Could use some words of encouragement or tips and tricks if anybody has gotten some.

Reaching out here should be helpful I hope. Notice not many people are on at one time. Maybe you need a friend you can call or text at the time you are having these feeling. Anyone have thoughts. Like an recovering alcoholic sponsor

All addictions are pretty much the same....They are symptoms of deeper emotional issues. It's a sign that something inside you is in need of healing.
It could be a trauma experienced during your childhood or it could be something in your subconscious which you are totally unaware of.

It might help to talk to a therapist whose purpose is to make the unknown....known. Then you can heal it.

God Bless

I have been there and I am sure many of us have. You should talk to someone. I go to SAA meetings virtually and they have helped tremendously.

Practicing mindfulness really helps too. It's ok to have those thoughts. Acknowledge them and talk to someone.

You got this!

     I was recently separated from my wife of 33 years and it's complicated. Anyway I rented a room about 15 minutes away and I see my kids about once a week. I see the people who own the house I live in once in a while but other than that I stay in my room where I do my cooking, wash dishes in the shower, read, color, and sleep. I get out at least once a day. I grocery shop and I attend 2 meetings...
