I want to quit

I found her to be the most "off." Some said "everything she says will make sense in time." None of it did and never has. There will always be someone else to speak with. It's just your choice when you want to stop the process. You are in control.

Thank you for sharing, I agree it is a choice. Discipline is what I am lacking but I am feeling disillusioned enough right now when I am not going back - it has only been 2-3 days but I am committed to at least stretching out for a week and then longer.

Be good to yourself. Like any addiction, there are ups and downs. I find that my best alternative to calling psychics is to do something that I always wanted to try or complete. The sense of accomplishment has outweighed the desire to call. And, or course, for me, my faith has helped me a great deal. Life just seems to go better for me when centered around faith as solutions I never fathomed often become present.

Yup so true!
Getting my mind to STOP FOCUSING on what I don’t have and challenge the mind to FOCUS ON WHAT I DO HAVE, what I can do to have fulfilling life BESIDES this… it is challenging to practice but it’s sometimes not about “can’t have reading today, can’t think about POI, can’t think about what psychic said” it’s like my brain is still focusing on the “can’t”. And it’s exactly like the phrase “don’t think about the pink elephants” and well one thinks about pink elephants.
So currently I am saving up for trip in April- I didn’t go to this trip with my friends in Sept to go hot air ballooning, which I use to do, and I didnt go skiing with a friend for their birthday and I just feel like I’m missing out on life. So this next “thing” for me is this do this trip in April- to see Complete Solar Totality … and it focus on that has helped me saved money

I was successful in breaking the addiction. It was at its worst for me around 2017-2019 ish. I got readings about 3 POI’s whom I was obsessed with. Each relationship fell through due to circumstances that I had no control of. The last POI kept me hanging on by responding to my text messages for a year but not actually taking action to get back together.
Eventually I was fed up after spending thousands and still empty handed. I finally stopped because I just didn’t have faith in the readings anymore.
In the end I moved on from each person, and to this day I now realize that none of them were right for me and I wasn’t even ready to find “the one” at the stage that I was at in my life.
I recently ended my first long term 2 year relationship which was extremely verbally and emotionally abusive. I am single and sometimes lonely but I’ve learned to cope with reality and allow things to play out. Every once in a blue moon I will get a reading, but I wouldn’t spend more than $50 per year on them now.
My advice is to please tell yourself “Why do I want to be with someone who doesn’t want to be with me? I deserve someone who doesn’t keep me waiting and who is direct about their feelings towards me.”
That was the lesson that I needed to learn above all others. This is 2024. It takes only seconds to send or reply to a text message. If someone really wants to get in contact with you, they’ll do so now. I too made the mistake of waiting months for people to come around, and the psychics only encouraged me by giving the next season’s time frames and telling me the person is scared, confused, blah blah blah.
It wasn’t the people I wanted. I wanted what I imagined the people to be, and none of them were that. Often times we want what we don’t have, and one we have it we realize that’s it’s not what it was cracked up to be.
The right person will one day come into your life and stay. They won’t keep you guessing, or waiting. They won’t ignore you or make excuses about disappearing.

It took me two years and a half to get over my anxiety.. when I look back I am like.. what was I thinking?? So much financial damage in psychics over a guy.. I look back and I now wish I had all my money back..
My psychic binges are over and I have more financial freedom..
anxiety is one of the worst feelings we could ever have..
but good news is that dark chapter is now behind me..
I am so much happier and now looking for a new job, new career choice.. as I am wanting a more challenging environment..
