Ok, here i am and I’ve been around for a long time, I’m writing to let whoever reads this that i am managing and living with my addiction, it is not a well done me thing, its that someone has asked me today, how did you get ontop of it, i manage it and i have dropped my guard on a few occasions, it never leaves you and i won’t get well, it has to be managed, being honest with yourself, looking into the mirror is hard, it’s harder to admit in public, but you have to, it’s an ongoing thing that won’t stop, manage and control,, put all blocks in place, understand yourself, you will live a better stronger life,Â
to experience is to gain knowledge, to put knowledge into practice,, waste of time otherwise. Guard up, Rainman
Hello Bobbyj,
Thanks for sharing this with us – it’s really helpful to hear what’s been working for you.
I can hear the experiences you’ve had have helped you learn and grow your understanding and awareness. It sounds like a combination of being mindful and honest alongside putting in the practical things such as blocks is working very well for you.
I hope you can keep sharing on here.
All the best,
Claire
