A 30 day streak of mine just ended. I was getting strong urges in the days leading up to it and eventually caved in. Any advice on how to handle this in the future? I want to get back on track and I am afraid I have lost some momentum and I want to build it back up. Any advice?
I can definitely relate with this - you're going strong for a period of time but then the urges seem to build up over a few days until you 'have' to give in. Try and try again is all I can say! Try and do it differently/recognise what caught you out this time.
Thanks Gilbert, since posting that I have continued to relapse. I am going to try jounrnaling again because last time I was able to get to 30 days, as oppose to two (my record since then). I think that what did finally get me at the end of the 30 day streak was that I was bored with my life. So I am going to try and keep things interesting by hanging out with friends, or going out when I get those urges.
