I feel like this new found life I have is harder than I thought…I find myself still pining for my vice, and I want out so bad…trying to think of something I could do more. I can’t work…or volunteer more than I’m already doing at the toy and action figure museum…just too much time on my hands…thinking about listening to audio books more and streaming t.v but that’s been a losing battle with my current hardships of just getting to get out of bed…advice?

Maybe MA literature is different to NA. I still think you should check it out.

I don’t have suggestions, but I really wish you luck. I’m in bed without that vice, and it’s not the best place.

How in the hell do you spend 300 dollars a month on vaping? I spend about 15 dollars every 3 weeks buying vape juice. Of course, you have to buy coils and such, but my last one has lasted a long time.
Are you using cartridges or something?
That’s more than I spend on my dogs expensive “thefarmersdog” dog food per month.
That might even be more than I was spending when I was smoking cigarettes.

Do exercise. It increases those endorphins and is better for you.
It’s hard giving up the drug vice but weed was the easiest thing I ever gave up. Alchohol, whilst not really a problem was way harder and cigs were something beyond me…
You need to develope some positive pathways so it really makes a difference. We are all different and the chemicals will call you till you get over it but start somewhere…
Go for a regular walk whilst your craving. It’s hard but it does work.

I agree with @rogueone . I would start going for walks or something.
Get those endorphins going the natural way.

I’ve been going to AA regularly in the past. Alcoholism is a strong bond for people in AA. They say there is no such thing as a bad AA meeting, but they’re wrong about that. I have been to bad AA meetings before. One woman was bragging about how many people she had screwed over, and another guy was trying to make connections to his old motorcycle gang. MOST AA meetings are good, though. I like to get into a meeting of about twelve to twenty people. In the big cities they have all different sizes of AA meetings.

Once I went inpatient and they didn’t have room so I ended up in the alcohol and drug ward. Sat in on a few of those meetings. Some people would go on and on forever.

Yes. I’ve experience that too. They say in those meetings that the newbies should keep quiet, but like you say, some people can go on and on and on.
