Hi Natrixo

Welcome to the site and this amazing community. 

Love the analogy of driving away from addiction. Have you got blocks in place ? Accountability with someone to oversee your money ? The best way to drive away as you say is through connection, talking to people

There is an 8pm text only chatroom on here each night. Would be good to talk further on there ?
