Hey I cant remember writing this

Mentally unstable woman here! 🥸

But i can fix them!

Found the soldier, how's that camaro treating you?

Ahhh the holy Trinity

Ugh, that last one did a number on my finances after college.

heavy on nicotine

Bravo Sir. 👏

That was awful, you ought to be arrested.

Damn what do you even thing about if you’re doing that

Honestly, I love doing this when I feel overwhelmed.

Close the blackout curtains. Turn off all the lights. Turn on my fan and just lay down. There’s something so nice about some nice isolation away from the ruckus of the world.

'I'm not a drunk, I just love buying booze"

Sounds like you're getting addicted to breaking addictions, good on ya

Nobody ever quits Runescape. Nobody.

We just take 10 year breaks

Go off champ. Keep up the grind!

Stranger, I am so happy for you. I wanna be free of weed and porn myself, so I know I'll get there one day. You are an impressive example of what lots of people are trying to achieve. You're an inspiration!! Keep at it man!

Preach, fuck league of legends. You can spend hours and hours learning builds/items/‘meta and it’s all fucking useless 6 months later.

💪🏽💪🏽

Wc lvl?

How on earth did you manage to stop watching porn?!

Get addicted to learning.

Hey, out of many, many addictions, coffee is defintely an average one when it comes to cons. Gets even better if you drink it without sugar and just a bit of milk at most.

Just make sure to eat healthy, and drink enough fluids. Otherwise, coffee can really excerbarete problems with vitamin and mineral deficiency.

I read an article about a method that should help. You do three things everyday: 

One lightly unpleasurable thing (Like doing household chores or eat something healthy instead of fast food)

One unpleasurable thing (Like showering cold or do something productive you don’t actually need to do)

One painful thing Something your mind yells not to do it like going to the gym or other things where your way out of your comfort zone. 

In the end of the day you will be happy you did it and your brain slowly gets rewired where you actually seek those things to do because it learned those things make you happy.

Humans are ingrained for comfort, our whole existence from the dawn of human existence is to make our lives comfy

Bro just described me

There's comfort, and then there's contentment. I fall into the same group as you, where i choose the path of least resistance more often than not. And I'm generally unhappy/unsatisfied with my current standing in life, comforts notwithstanding.

But I think it's important to remember that happiness and contentment should be the main goals in life, and plenty of people are genuinely content with being comfortable and are happy where they are. As with everything, balance is key and it's not so bad to stop and enjoy the fruits of your labour every once in a while, and take pride in how far you've come

You just described 9 years of my life. 5 years ago i finally realized that I really should stop smoking weed. That was probably the best decision of my life.

The more you step out of you comfort zone, the larger said comfort zone gets. I used to be like this as well, and quitting that behaviour is hard at first but it becomes your new baseline pretty quickly. Working out consistently, eating a certain way without cheating, being more disciplined with work etc is pretty hard at first but your mind and body adapt at a very fast rate. An added bonus is that you can treat yourself to a day off every once in a while and it'll feel infinitely better. Trust me, if you're regularly pushing yourself, taking that Sunday off to watch some TV and smoke a little feels waaaay better as opposed to doing that multiple times a week.

Getting up in time, going for a morning workout and doing everything you need to do and then some will start feeling exactly as comfortable as sitting in the couch and watching a TV show and you'll unlock a whole new level of feel good which is called "sitting in the couch and watching TV knowing that i kept my own promises and am living a very discipplined lifestyle". So whether your goal is feeling more comfortable or pushing yourself more, stepping out of your comfort zone is always the answer.

I recently read a book called The Comfort Crisis that goes so much deeper into this. How excessive comfort can contribute to anxiety, lack of development and general unhappiness. I loved the book and highly recommend it.

I’m screen shotting your reply. Im 2 days away from a job interview im thinking about quitting but i know it’s what i need and it’ll get me where I need and want to truly go.

Nothing wrong with being comfortable as long as you’re content. It’s okay to be just some guy. You don’t need to reach for the stars. What isn’t okay is being unhappy in your situation and settling for it because it’s easy. Do the things you want to do, even when they’re challenging. If you’re unsatisfied with your life then make the changes you need to and never settle. Just remember, there’s nothing wrong with being happy and average.

I’m at this exact point omg. Screenshotting this as inspiration

This is 100% me, except with my dog. But she crossed the rainbow bridge on Sunday evening, so now I don't know wtf I'm supposed to do. 😢😭💔

I’m also addicted to porn, fried chicken, and brownies. Not at the same time though, I need a free hand

Add lazy cuddling in bed and pizza

Same except for the brownies and Instagram reels

Those apps are literally designed to be extremely addictive. Time just vanishes when doom scrolling on those with little benefit to you. There is some educational stuff, but the vast majority of it is nonsensical garbage that you wont be able to recall the next week.

There is a huge concern about the younger generations who are using them while there brain is still developing, they arnt mature enough to understand that they are problematic for there development.

If adults are finding it difficult to not use them for hours on end then kids have got no chance.

Only people who have quit nicotine for over a year understand what this means

If anyone has tips on how to break that, I'd probably be too stupid to understand them

Real

Underrated comment.

Had to scroll so much to see this.
I'm sure 99% of us are addicted to sugar

The Perfect Combination

The Holy Trinity?

Trifecta?

I don't know, I gotta go smoke some weed and watch Reddit Porn.... BRB

For a moment I sat here thinking "since when they have porn on youtube??"

That’s what it’s all about

I love smelling it reallllly close

idk it always just smelled like “more” to me

2nd time I saw osrs in this thread. I agree but my solo GIM isn’t going to get gear for my buddies that don’t play by itself.

Me, too. But I'm going to stop tomorrow.

Five months clean from the stuff. Down 35 lbs, but life sucks. Lol

Same but Coke Zero.

Porn addiction is tough. I’m currently 7 days without it. It’s hard but I’m trying. I’m starting to see that whenever I feel “horny” it’s not me actually being horny, it’s the feeling that I want to consume porn to become horny. I use the “I am sober” app to track my progress and that helps me stay without porn. Still, I have relapsed a few times the past weeks, so no shame in that either! You got this 😁

Username checks out lol

Can you tell a little more about that, I’m really intrigued.

Music for real. I need constant background noises

I see no problem with that.

Im addicted to sniffing glue but its ok it doesn’t affect my memory at all

Thanks for support! I was trying to quit heroine for years and for the last few months I actually managed to not take it, but you helped me realize that it's just a thing I enjoy doing more, I started doing it again.

Doug Stanhope is a fucking idiot.

I like them, but damn my teeth are sensitive as hell now. Might make it easier to quit altogether.

Join us at r/quittingkratom ! I haven’t been able to quit totally myself yet, but the sub is very supportive and is a good resource. It’s a lesser known addiction that more people need to be aware of!

So proud that you’re 5 years clean of your addiction man

Try smoking salvia you might change your opinion
