Hey now? I was recommended this application by a YouTube channel. I can empathize with sobriety because I have been around and with drug/alcohol addicts all my life by living with family. Seeing where that path leads got me to where I am now. I've lived a pretty straight and narrow lifestyle. I neither drink or smoke but that doesn't mean I don't have my own demons.
During this pandemic, many people have fallen victim to their own addictions in my case that is Internet use.. Being a millennial, I find it commonplace to rely on your phone and other technologies . With that ease of access, it is easy to develop many unhealthy habits that aren't apparent. In my case that is a lingering porn addiction.
Living a life staying out of trouble resulted in developing this problem. It was my cigarette break from my issues in a manner of speaking. It was my escape from the drug and alcohol ridden madness that my family exposed me to. It was also a coping mechanism for my lack of social interaction when I was young. This is the new age drug that is developing within young people and just like drug/alcohol the withdrawal symptoms are real and crippling. I can tell you from experience. This year I have seeked therapy for this and adjustment anxiety I developed during the 1st year of the pandemic
Now that I have spilled my guts I can tell you why I am here. I aim to develop authentic relationships with those I can be honest with, make friends, amd expand my community circle. I also seek companionship since I heard this app also facilitates dating. I am looking to build a relationship with a woman. That can start casually and then go further from there.
I enjoy being in the company of others, exercise, and practicing piano. With that all said, I look forward to hearing and sharing our joint sobriety experience. Even though my sobriety I seek is digital, it is all the same.
