Maybe I will start writing here more often.

I see what you're saying.
Is your T the only person you feel will hold you accountable? What about your wife? Just trying to see if there are other people in your life who are supportive enough.
Also -- and this is a genuine, sincere question -- is there a reason you think that people online cannot deal with your struggles together like you and a therapist could? We may not be able to talk to you in person or see you in person, but you're more than welcome to keep posting threads and reach out for help as much as you want.
I have found that this tight-knit community to be very helpful. Many of us, when we struggle, tackle our problems together. Of course having a therapist you can talk to is very helpful, but we can still act as a "supplement" to your therapist in the interim, if that makes sense.
