Psychic readings addiction - recovery

Psychic readings addiction - recovery

One of my friends introduced me to something called psychic readings . May be 3 or 4 years back. I don’t remember. Without my knowledge of when I statures frequenting on psychic reading apps. And o became addicted? Until after much later I dint realise I was addicted. I’ve been trying ever since to recover from it- they are costing me my money, confidence, peace. Moreover even u situation in life isn’t changing. I’ve been stuck trying to find a life partner. It’s been 6 years since I moved to Australia) originally from India ), haven’t found a partner. This is a vicious circle where I ask psychic when and why, I get some re assurance, n then go back when I need a top up of re assurance. I need someone, some space where I can come to instead of going to a psychic in that heat of moment. To be there n re assure . I’m currently 35, female, good job, have friends. But not someone soo close n not all understand this dependency. Hence I can’t say I’ll call a friend always.

I felt a strong urge to open psychic app, ruminating thoughts. But I came here instead. Trying to stay grounded.
