Ah I see. I'm sorry to hear that you are having issues too with this. Maybe there need to be different "levels" for these accountability partners/groups
Because we are not all at the same phase in recovery, I think.
When I tried working with accountability partners before in the informal way, one person was really flaky (not on this forum), then with two other people I was able to do the commitments okay but I did not have many, only like 1-2 hours a day because I had an easier period with work too. And then I just got low at one point and then I suddenly couldn't do any of it at all.
Are you going to try the subreddit or the discord server? I don't really use reddit but I do have discord installed from earlier. And discord is more interactive than reddit.

I managed to finish getting samples out to client and took my car in for a very expensive repair. I'm glad both are done. I did not return the clothes yet, that is planned for this afternoon.

That's great! I don't know what the samples are about but this sounds work related. Do you do remote work too or this is totally different?

So today I plan to:
1. Return clothes
2. Get blood test dr. wants for next week's dr. appt.
3. Finish report I wanted to have done last week (or at least work on it for an hour).
4. Call my sister - I've been avoiding this because she doesn't understand my depression and then I get upset.

What is it that your sister doesn't understand about your depression? I'm genuinely interested if you don't mind sharing about this.
