To me it sounds like you're doing good because you've recognized the problem, come to terms with it and are not working on correcting it.

When I was going through my hard times I always felt like I was making absolutely no progress. I felt like I was in a stalemate and nothing was changing. Looking back I realize that I actually was making progress the whole time simply by not giving up.

Another thing that has helped me greatly over the years is really paying attention to the things I'm thankful for throughout the day. When I'm enjoying a nice cup of hot coffee I will acknowledge it in my mind and give thanks to the universe ( not exactly but you get the point). I think a person really needs to put a good chunk of their time towards thinking about the good things in the life and the things you are thankful for, all the little things.

There was a book I read years ago that gave me some really interesting insights and helped me quite a bit. It was called The Art of happiness and it's about a western psychologists long interviews with the Dalai Lama. They talk about life. Not really my thing but I actually got a lot out of it. you can probably find it an audiobook format and just listen to it while you go for a walk.

Don't give up man. Why don't you make a simple New Year's resolution right now to go for a 15 minute walk every single day no matter what. Little things like that make a big difference.

Take care
