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 🙂

Starting tomorrow in c/[email protected]

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.

Ok, then what is she going to do about the shitty disloyal rube she just hired to advise her on matters of national importance?

Wow, they really attacked gamers. Conservatives speedrunning how to be hated by everybody. in c/[email protected]

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.

That was always my thought when looking at those points: "How exactly did a person throw that through the skin of an elephant?"
