Im one day into my second attempt. Fell of the wagon a while back. I am determined to kick habit for good this time. Used cope and grizzly 30 years.
For the same reason I'm not going to wish you good luck, I'll point out that there is no "attempt". We don't try or attempt - we just do. If you have posted your sacred promise on roll call then you will not use today because you are a man of integrity. There are thousands here that have done this and gone before you, read everything and learn about your addiction, and do this one day at a time. See you on roll....
I want to point out a very important word that Denny used: "Addiction" compared to the word you used 'habit'!
Addiction is going to be with you forever.
Addiction is the compulsive need for and use of a habit-forming substance (as heroin, nicotine, or alcohol) characterized by tolerance and by well-defined physiological symptoms upon withdrawal.Habit is
A recurrent, often unconscious pattern of behavior that is acquired through frequent repetition.I often made the same mistake in my life as a using addict. I always thought that I could abandon dipp by changing my habit. That's why I've always failed in the past. When I accepted that I am and always will be a fricking addict I started experiencing success when I linked that with my daily promise. Catfish I was overwhelmed to think that I was such a weak ass and had been at this for so long. There are many of us that have been slaves for 30 + years, (for me 40+). Pm me if I can assist you.
