--- Quote from: Still tired on November 30, 2018, 10:05:23 PM ---It makes me sick how much I spent on readings. As long as I had an account open it left that temptation open to call. Since I closed my account a few months back I just don't even feel the urge anymore. I quit Keen on and off a few times over the years. I used to think I would never be able to stop. So I just tried to limit myself and do readings only once a month or every other month. As long as I had that account open the temptation was always there. I could go for awhile without getting a reading, but the curiousity would get to me and I kept wondering what would this reader or that reader say about my situation. Even the times I closed my account before I still wondered. I don't even wonder about it anymore. It gets to a point where you just realize it does not matter what they say. You can deal with things without needing to get their perspective. It's not difficult, life is actually way harder when you are getting readings and trying to make sense of what all these different readers tell you. You can do this. I hope you have a great vacation and birthday.

I contacted customer service and closed my account yesterday and my first thought was ‘I should’ve called one last advisor instead of having them refund my bank account.’ 🙄 I felt sick like I had just broken up with someone I truly cared about. Now that I’m not as shocked (for lack of a better word) I had to remind myself that those readers don’t truly care about my problems. They won’t notice that I’ve stopped calling. It’s not a break up, this is the healthiest option that I’ve had in regards to Keen in a long long time.
I feel really good already, actually. I used to check Keen compulsively just ‘to see who’s available.’ I’m not sure if this positivity will wear off the next time something happens and I *NEED* insight but as of now I feel great.
I might still creep on the forum for a while, I do enjoy talking to most of you and hearing everyone’s input and all of our different stories, so don’t be surprised if I pop back up on a thread here and there. 😂😅 Thank you all for the birthday wishes 😊

I just went over some old bank statements of mine (tax reasons) from when i still had a Keen account and got literally sick when I saw how much I spent on there! all the charges to Keen-Ingenio, OMG! Disgusting.
At least I can say now if I spend $100 a month on readings, it's a lot and it's not with those money drainers anymore.

It's scary how much you spend on readers, isn't it?

OMG yes. Disgusting actually. I feel better now that I can see what a difference I can see in my spending on readings...I don’t feel so bad spending ten bucks in a purple ocean reading here and there lol.

Lol. I'm glad you're managing to spend less, now.

Well, it seems as though Keen didn’t really deactivate my account. I got a call from Keen, and of course being an addict I answered out of curiosity. It was Cookie.
I shouldn’t have answered but I got a good reading and now I’ll call customer service yet again so I can have them delete my account 😑😖
