Someone mentioned YNAB upthread.
This idea here is a big part of their system.
It's what I learned in Gamblers Anonymous where one of the tools are a Pressure Relief Group Meeting where you sit down with other GA members and set a budget and deal with any other pressing matters, such as creditors who are pressuring for payment and other real life issues.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

Mesila has recently revamped their system - it is now possible to meet with a financial counselor in a matter of days.
