I thought Threads was for people who thought Mastodon was too complicated. What's all this "turn on sharing" mess?

I didn't quit as I said I would, but that's mostly been due to my sheer lack of motivation. I'm coming off of a really bad low point a few weeks ago that's had me making amends with my wife, returning to therapy for CPTSD yadda yadda . . . I'm honestly just exhausted and do not feel like I can climb that hill.

That said, I've had some small victories. I haven't completely quit, but I've gotten better at remembering the terrible smell before I light up, which has helped me cut down a lot. As a CPTSD survivor, I'm pretty practiced at working with the unconscious, so I find meditative visualization very effective (when I can be bothered). I can recommend a particular mp3 if there's interest.

So since I'm writing this, I guess I'll make another extra strong attempt tomorrow, but no promises.

P.s. Any motivation (except health scares) you can offer in the comments would be much appreciated ๐Ÿ™‚

Eh, that doesn't help when my wife is going apoplectic on me and putting me close to a nervous breakdown.

Sometimes I think I won't be able to quit until we get divorced.

Just checking in for my quit, which starts tomorrow, and hopefully helping get this sub off the ground.

Edit: thanks for the well-wishes everyone. Turns out my wife and I did fight over something stupid, and I smoked, because I'm an idiot. Looking forward to doing it again tomorrow.

Wow, they really attacked gamers. Conservatives speedrunning how to be hated by everybody. by MorallyCoffee in c/politicalmemes@lemmy.world

I'm really sick of the age thing when it comes to gaming. Tons of middle-aged and older men spend hours watching sportsball every week, but nobody gives them shit.
