Motivation Bouncing around dopamine hits

Hey guys I’m a recovering addict, went to rehab for drugs. Alcohol has never been an issue but I seem to be picking up gambling habits that set me even further back.

I’m a lot better than before but I am definitely going down the dark part of life again.

The closest ahhh feeling is whenever I get a sale at work.

Any tips for motivation, not a big fan of NA/AA, haven’t tried smart recovery though… thoughts around this?
