Struggling with a Habit: Seeking Guidanc
For the past five years, I've been struggling with a habit that leaves me feeling regretful every morning. I find myself unable to control it, and it's starting to impact my daily life. Unfortunately, I don't have the means to seek professional help or consultation. What could be causing this behavior, and are there any medications or treatments that might be helpful?
