Hi G. Welcome to the forums.

Forums are fairly active now - but it's important for you to engage with others if you want them to engage back.
What kind of additional support would you want?
-
You can do this! Keep journaling and let your emotions out. It helps to clarify your thinking. One day at a time.

Welcome back brother.

Fantasizing will pass. Maintain good habits and you'll be fine ?

Hey ?Take it one day at a time - your desire to play will reduce over time and it will get easier to enjoy other activities.

Thank you all for the support. Detox day 4 and going strong. It has been a challenge, but I come to the forums and read peoples' stories which helps a lot. I think I'm going to start a journal today or tomorrow for some additional help getting through it.
One day at a time ?

Check out the book Mindset. One of the concepts in there is about the idea of a growth vs. fixed mindset. Right now you can see that you're focused on "well I am the way I am so I might as well go back to gaming" instead of "this is where I am and this is where I want to be, so I will do XYZ to change and adapt."
Gaming isn't going to fix anything. Nor is simply quitting. It's what you do instead that matters.
