Hello comrades and welcome to the fourth improvement megathread of May! There is one more week left in May, let's make it count.

As usual, some discussion ideas:

  • Do you want to share something you've done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
  • Do you have any goals for next week?
  • Do you have any streaks? For example, "sober for one day." Feel free to post your streak every day in this thread.
  • If you don't have a continuous streak, did you manage to abstain from something for a day or more?
  • Did you come across some useful information or resource that might help others?

Poster caption: "No!"

Good luck with your goals! unity

    Welcome aboard comrade, we are happy to have you! unity

    In regards to being terminally online, I think it's a systemic issue. Everybody is so starved for basic human needs (meaning, community, affection, etc) that it's impossible to resist the free dopamine box. It's like being a rat in a cage, of course everybody is gonna get addicted to the only thing that gives you a tiny hit of pleasure.
