  1. Go alone. I went out every single night for 3 years, most of the time by myself. Your sister has limiting beliefs about going out alone, that's ok but you don't have to let her influence you in that way. Having fun is a choice you make. You could go, meet some new people and have a ton of fun.
  2. The "fun" is more about the high level of stimulation you experienced. Just remember that during (and after) your 90 day detox, you'll have a different understanding of what is fun. It takes time.
  3. Awesome to see your journal up here.
  4. Calm.com is also great!
  5. Both Daring Greatly and The Slight Edge are fantastic.
  6. Great to have you back!
  7. Hey Thomas! I'd encourage you to find another activity or two you can do at home when you're bored/tired after reading. It will help you be less tempted.
  8. One day at a time. Read "The Slight Edge" - it will help you understand more about how to take that next step.
  9. Think we have a winner for current longest post on the forum.
  10. Great job on the quiz man!
  11. The key to having a good weekend without gaming is for you to have things to do ahead of time. So good job planning them so far and definitely invite your friends to join you.
  12. ?Boom! Great to way develop your discipline and self-confidence.
  13. It's a party it's a party it's a party heyyyy it's a party it's a party it's a party heyyyy. Cravings are fairly random but you are right that the more clear you are on why you are doing what you're doing the less likely you will be tempted by distractions. Excited to follow your journal.
  14. Hey! Great to have you here with us. I definitely think your plan is a good one. Writing will help you clarify your thinking and inspire you to write more often as well as you get into the habit.
  15. Urges and cravings will come and go. Be mindful of the justifications you're making and get moving around which will help shift the energy in your body.
  16. Hey Cor! Welcome to the forum. Happy you're here with us, especially from Switzerland! This community is a global one. Let us know if you can help at all.
  17. Hey Thomas! Great to have you join us here. Your plan sounds great. A good book to check out would be The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg. A little bit of YouTube before bed is fine... just make sure it doesn't include streams, because that's when you'll want to play.
  18. Being proud of yourself for the little things is really important to build self-esteem. That made a huge difference for me. I talk more about that here.
  19. Some days you just need to pass the time. Just remember that in order to recover there are certain steps to take like having a daily agenda. It would be good to start a project you could up with to give you more purpose. This video shares more on that.
  20. Love eggs too! Eat 4 every morning for breakfast with an avocado.
  21. ?Thanks! I think I could make a much better one in the future but that was just me in a room one-take speaking from the heart. Appreciate you watching it!
  22. I'm a big fan of CBT! You could also check out How to Stop Worrying and Start Living by Dale Carnegie. It's a masterpiece as well.
  23. Big fan of both sites - especially in combination with each other.
  24. ?Great mission!
  25. Love seeing another journal up here! Keep it up.
