Resisting temptation

@Human1000 no

@MizzO sorry, thought maybe sex addiction.

@Human1000 you thought right but I have been in recovery for years now....just recently divorced. trying to be single is... difficult.

@MizzO stay strong…

@Human1000 Trying...i wabt to get on here sometimes and post wild stuff...but I have already said how I don't want to be like that. There are people here who know that I am and have been different and that keeps me in check a bit....but I'm already feeling disappointed at the thought. For you guys who see my struggle also witness me fail and give in....I'm really struggling. And there is some guy who is trolling me from different pages trying to "break me" smh....

@MizzO Kudos to you for all the work you've done on yourself. And yes, being single can be SO difficult. I know, first hand, after many years of therapy, myself.

@MizzO We support you and your struggle. People need to know its a real addiction of the release from anxiety.

@PhoenixPhail I'll just getting into therapy...I wish I would have done it sooner. I thought being married cured me but I think it was one big deflection, though interestingly enough I wasn't the connflict that brought about the divorce

@MizzO Hindsight is always 20/20. This is the perfect time to get into therapy. Things play out as they do. It could very well be that the earlier goings-on in your life - the habits, the deflections - were exactly the things you needed to get you into therapy [i]now.[/i]

Whatever the conflict was that brought about the divorce, you can use that to your advantage. I can see you have the strength to do that. Your willingness to do therapy is an indication of that.

I think you're doing well. Keep doing. 👍 🤗

@PhoenixPhail Any tips on what to do in the moment? Right now it seems like all day is just one big moment to overcome.

@MizzO Practice [i]anything[/i] in the direction of loving yourself. Give yourself breaks, frequently, if you can. Take time for yourself. Take time to appreciate all the things you DO have, all the gifts bestowed upon you from life, itself.

Try not to dwell on all the things you need to overcome. Make a list of positive aspects and reflect on those. Pat yourself on the back for all your accomplishments in your life, even the little ones. Surely, there must be many.

And congratulate yourself for being so courageous, brave and resilient. You have so much strength to have made it through so much. Be confident that same strength will carry you so much farther.

Know good things are already here and waiting for you. Finding moments of joy and happiness, anywhere you can, in anything you do, will open the channels to the abundance that awaits you.

Trust that your Inner Being knows the way. ❤️
