Kad Posted May 20, 2016 Posted May 20, 2016 Today was day 86 (officially now 87). I am going to make the 90 day detox soon yet this week I am running into problems. I am stressed and anxious and feel the pull to play although I have not felt the temptation in weeks. I am realizing that this need may always be with me or at least for a long time. I don't know if it is self-sabotage from the success around the corner or something else. It seems to be triggered with replacement my gaming laptop with a not one. Its like I am grieving or something. Did anyone else run into these kind of things and what did yawl do? I plan to not game after the 90 day cause I still have so much fixing/living in real life to do and I don't trust myself to be responsible with it. Is that the problem - the realization that my detox may be permanent? IDK. Someone posted about needed more post detox information and I would have to agree atm.Those on the mountain top did not get dropped there - it was the result of hard work to win that view!
Kad Posted May 20, 2016 Author Posted May 20, 2016 I had already seen that and it does not seem to address the emotional issue. Although it sounds like a good idea.
Cam Adair Posted May 21, 2016 Posted May 21, 2016 Grieving can be normal for sure. Check out the book Radical Acceptance by Tara Brach and/or her podcast on the Tim Ferriss show.
