    Compelled to do wrong thing I don’t even know why. Right thing doesn’t even feel bad it’s a lot of effort fall into familiar I suppose do I even know what family means idk I want to. Not usually afraid of hard work either so should be able to sort this. Can’t say no to sniffing powder that makes me ill for days not even overly pleasurable doing it really it’s ridiculous. Scares me actually worried about my health and still can’t keep off it. Can’t sleep need to very tired but on edge and know what’s to come. Don’t even want to go to sleep alone pathetic 100%.

    Have to start over tomorrow day 1.

    Up looking at my numbers again been on it about 30 mins total  kills me im so small time will be even smaller time if I keep on going down this road again. Some things good slowly unwinding others bad no nice things for me to look forward to. Like a child need some incentive lol. Son on Easter hol now going to in-laws today and tomorrow. Wife not very pleased with me don’t blame her.

    Just makes me want to do it more misery loves company so they say.

    Weather going to be rubbish from tomorrow over the BH weekend that should cheer you up a bit :)

    You can have an AM just not yet.

    Stick with the plan and focus on the business and family.
    Any interim compromise on some 1/2 hearted attempt to get some dual use case covered  just drains funds.

    RR + sensible 2nd car + save for AM  IF that is what you really want !

    Mate looking forward to bad weather not great really ha

    Only thing keeps me going is knowing I’ve got people who depend on me  needing me to pull it together. Long term I’m on my own know that don’t want to lose my family but I’ve seen how that goes I go down his road though and my life really won’t be worth living. She’ll probably take my house just because she can knows how much this place means to me and she’ll try to make me start over just to break me altogether.

    If you continue on this path of self destruction then that is exactly what will happen. You will lose your wife and son and you will lose half of everything else that you own.

    If you don't want that to happen then you need to smarten yourself up and you need to do it quick.

    Going over figures you have already gone over a thousand times won't change them.

    What is the next level of professional help?

    Please seriously consider that - last 2 days show just how little your fundamentals have changed and that the good progress is still 'forced' if you will. I have no idea how long is long enough before something else is tried but it does feel that you need something more as you simply cannot/will not help yourself in the ways you know to be best.

    What you need to do to keep your family and progress financially is not rocket science. All planned, all explained, all tried and, in fact, all agreed by you but you're still looking for an out. Whatever in your mental make up is stopping you doing these things needs concentrated work before you really do lose the lot. I don't think dial-a-counsellor is enough.

    She doesn’t help me when I need her. Yesterday spent money she tells me it’s payback for putting up with me put me further into debt. Make me pay no excuse for me but hard to do right thing when I constantly have the threat.

    All I can think about me not spending and her ruining me anyway. Ruin myself first.

    Dont need to go to some facility like some total drug addict I do it yes but not to the extent others do.
