advice/tips for someone who wants to stop calling!
peppie:
i've realized nobody can help you better than those who have suffered through it. i actually tried to talk to someone more professional about my bad calling habits but i notice people really don't understand and it's quite embarrasing to even try to explain what this problem is. finally, it's viewed as something very very bad psychologically and i don't need somebody looking at me like i'm a freak show.
for those of you who stopped after persisting calling, you can write down what helped you to stop and how you cope?

For me, i had to seriously look at the reason I was calling and then focused on why I couldn't stop obsessing and calling. It took a very long time to get to this point. Basically, nothing ever came true from the readings and I was so miserable, I desperately wanted to change. I started working on myself and trusting God instead of psychics. Its not easy to stop and I fell back into it many times. I would go a little bit without calling and would start feeling better, then I would call again and get sucked right back into the pattern. I would suggest trying to figure out what is making you hang on which leads to calling. Then start trying to change it. Its not normal to call psychics all the time. Its not normal to obsess about something and not let go. The admittance of that is what started my healing. And yes, its healing :)

I also made myself read through notes I had taken on past calls, embarrassing though it was to see how many calls I made and how ridiculous some of the readings were, that I paid good money for and got little or nothing out of. ...And reading it again made me realize how wrong they were, how wasteful it was and just how much I was out of my mind to even listen to it much less pay for such garbage.

Yes... this helps me... I mean I have pages and pages of notes. PAGES. what's helpful is that in this current situation I am in I noticed peopel who said something before were saying the same thing exactly again but they were wrong last time. It made me dump those readers and really understand that finding a reader who is actually right is pretty rare. I think I'll do what you said.

I'm at this point now. The worst part is I feel I can't tell anyone. Like I stated I told someone "more professional", but that was a more ostricizing and hurtful experience more than anything else and I won't do it again.
I think the reason I do it is because I am in such a bad situation and I have no option to leave so I live in persistent fear of what's going to happen. I know I should just "let go and let God", but there's that notion that if I know what someone is going to do I can stay a step ahead and protect myself.
If you have any more advice about what worked for you, Baypark, please keep 'em coming.
Oh and thanks :)

Not.ONE person in my life knows I've called psychics so I understand.
Since I don't know your whole.situation, I don't really know what to suggest. If you're in a bad situation, there must be something you can do to get out. If not physically then emotionall meaning accept what it is and try and move on. No situation is forever. We control how we react and our decisions. Regardless of what the situation is, you need to put YOU first. Your emotional and spiritual wellbeing. YOU need to be the most important person in your life, so you have to figure out how you can change it, even if its a simple thing like changing a reaction. It sounds like you have " hit bottom" so now the only way is up and that is a good thing because it forces you to make changes for the better. You just have to figure out what those changes are :)
