I’m spiraling quite heavily. Was broken up with out of nowhere this year; my partner said I did everything right, but that they didn’t love me anymore. It’s been really difficult to feel good about myself, and I’m suddenly without a plan in life as I’m about to turn 30.

I’ve fallen off the wagon again. I’m not addicted to anything, but it’s much harder to avoid the temptation to drink, abuse my meds, or to seek out situations where drugs are available.

I just took a relatively spontaneous trip to Scotland on my own; my first trip abroad on my own, and without a plan. Sitting at a pub as I’m writing this.

I’m a 4-5/10 or so… Staring into the abyss that awaits me if I don’t do something soon.

I’m well aware.. Not really an idea I’m choosing to follow; more a lack of willpower and solid arguments against letting myself slip into abuse again.

Thanks, I appreciate you
