I imagine the OP is taking ‘personal responsibility’ as part of his journey to wellness.
For him to name the shop and the WL would probably set him back.
No matter how you look at it, you were correct with “I should not say this”
Yea back in the day when "the stuffs" were actually properly good stuff. These days everything is made to double the original amount so your just getting low quality product, its also laced with god knows what.Quote:

You just don't know these days what's inside and what is laced with.
Point is.

A good perspective is hitting rock bottom isn't something that happened to you, but maybe for you? And yeah, like GFM says, no value to be gleaned on this forum. Log off forever and be free.

Brave guy for admitting all this, I salute you.
Continue seeing a drug and alcohol counsellor.
I also would suggest you see a psychotherapist rather than a psychologist in this instance.
It's pretty clear that punting has formed a major part of your self-identity. You need to explore your unconscious mind. Something a psychologist doesnt specialise in.
(Think what they show psychologists do in movies, but really don't. Psychologists at least in Australia specialise cognitive behavioural therapy)
Thank you, OP. It is very brave of you to share your story. It’s great that you acknowledge the issue, are actively seeking support, and are getting help to address this addiction.
As 2 posts alluded to, consider getting away and enrolling in a dedicated addiction and mental health retreat program.
I am not affiliated with the website, but a resource like recovery[.]com can help you find a centre (close to home or abroad) that may suit your needs.
All the best on your recovery journey.
Which what?Quote:

Wow what a story! Thanks OP for sharing. I guess every man would have to sink at least once to grow up strong mentally.
This happened to me twice. First time I almost decided to divorce but fortunately, the lady I sank my heart in, pulled the plug and found another man. I felt deeply hurt in heart but after a couple months when I sobered up, I felt fortunate that it had stopped this before any real damage.
The 2nd time was in Sydney. I burnt $30k in 7 months. This was crazy as I always have very strict budget. When I realized that I was having a problem. I start my own therapy by seeing other WLs. Fortunately I met Joey from Euston St in Rydelmere. She had a feeling for me and sort of filled my emotional gap. We developed some sort of personal relationship but not too close. She never asked for any benefits, nor initiate messages but always responded mine. We never met outside the shop and she would decline if I book over two hours session. I soon cut my ties with other WL I had problems with and back to my normal life.
Since then I never fall again.
