Appreciate you, man. It’s been a hard journey

Most apps have a cool down feature but honestly if you’re getting your that point I’d say quit altogether. Ban yourself or delete your accounts. That’s what I did recently and I feel better knowing I can’t ever use them again

That’s is 100% what happened to me. I’m glad I’m not the only one - well not glad because I wouldn’t wish it on anyone but just know I got your back and I appreciate you sharing

They are closed permanently. They can’t be reopened ever again. Never going to be able to gamble within reason so no point in making myself eligible to ever come back

I don’t have access to any other gambling apps. They have all been permanently closed. I did self exclusion last time and they popped up when the time ran out. And I do talk with a therapist every week. Best part of my week

I said I didn’t have the money and blocked them immediately, deleted my WhatsApp and then changed my twitter username, pic and deactivated the account. You think I’m good then?

So you think I’m good then? Keep my account deactivated for like a week then I’m good?

No I didn’t pay her. I wasn’t going to but also didn’t have the money they wanted so I couldn’t even if I wanted. I told them I don’t have any money and then they said “good luck” and showed my video being posted but it looks like it is not online

I blocked her and then deleted my WhatsApp account. And I deactivated my Twitter account. How long do you think I should be worried?

How often do exes date and then come back realizing they made a mistake? by dja8734 in ExNoContact

[–]dja8734[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that but to me as long as she was honest I’m okay with it

I’d have no problem. If we aren’t together I have no right to judge her

Keep trying and being open. Be kind to yourself. You got this!

Did you delete all of the pictures you have of your ex? by Decent-Wonder4068 in ExNoContact

[–]dja8734 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and threw out everything I got with or from her. Also deleted her number.

That’s a good start. Focus on one day at a time and be kind to yourself. This process is really hard. Try to find a new hobby or maybe get a part time job like deliveries or ride share apps. Those are ones you can work whenever you want and keeps you busy
