Hello comrades and welcome to the third improvement megathread of September! It's the middle day of the month, good time to review your progress so far and remind yourself of your goals for the rest of the month. 
As usual, some discussion ideas:
- How is your September going so far?
- Do you want to share something you've done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
- Do you have any goals or plans 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?

Good luck with your goals! 
September has not been great for me. This is probably the worst my mental health has been in a while. I'm in my "I want to run away and start over somewhere new" phase that I know is an impossibility. I wish I had an actionable plan to get my shit together and improve my life but it feels like so many avenues are just cut off for me. I feel like I have no agency in my own life. I don't get to do what I want on a day to day basis and, largely speaking, I don't know what the fuck I want to do because I so rarely have any agency that it feels like that part of my brain is atrophying away.
