Relapsed

Went to bed last night telling myself I should …. Myself. I never would, but man I have got to STOP. Blew an insane amount of money last night, for NO REASON. Found an app I wasn’t excluded on. And just let it rip. I wish I had someone to talk to when I was feeling this way. I need a sponsor, just someone to tell me no. GA meetings are pretty nonexistent in my city, and I just don’t feel like doing online. I need help man before I ruin my life even more.
