2 days now, I'm moving a 3 day drive from where I am now so I'm not expecting much self-control the next few weeks

I've lost track. A week or so maybe? The urges are overwhelming right now, but I'm afraid if I start I won't be able to stop.

How much does a change of scene or activity help when the urges are so strong? What else might help in this moment?

Changing scenery, like getting up and going somewhere else, really helps me.

Unfortunately I am very restricted in what I can and can't do right now. I'm waiting for a bed so I can go into hospital and I'm not allowed to leave the house until that happens.

I have been doing my best at trying to distract myself, changing activity, it just feels like it's only a matter of time until these stop being enough.

For now though the urge has reduced a bit so I guess it's a start.

Today will hopefully be day 1. It is 1:30 am now, andd I'm about to go to bed. Another ER trip. It's been a rough coiuple of weeks and the last few days seem to have exponentially grown in the s**t department.

Almost made it to 30 days, but I'm back to 0 today. I've been so stressed out lately, and my anxiety feels out of control. I feel like people are attacking me when they ask things, which are probably meant innocently. But it doesn't sound innocent when I hear them. I just needed something to pull me back together and snap me out of this messy way I feel.

You should be proud of making it to almost 30 days, that's a long stretch! Just start over, knowing that you've made it to that point before and you can do it again. Be gentle on yourself when slip-ups happen.
