Hi All.
Doing well at the moment hence the ‘touch wood’ thing because I hope I don’t jinx it.
All the other sayings like: ‘be careful what you wish for’ and all that stuff has meaning because when things get better old habits can return and some of those things and behaviors can be not so good.
I’m a FULL-BLOWN addict. I’ve had addiction behaviors since I was about seven years old, and they just got worse and worse as I got older. What I notice is that when things are going bad my addiction stuff is suppressed. All the negative energy overrides the addictions.
It’s only been about three weeks since things have improved but my thinking has recently changed, so much so that some of my addictive stuff has returned. Nothing serious, but enough to really notice the change.
One of the many things that has been so good is…I’ve gotten so much done at home. Some stuff I’d been putting off for four years. So, my home is looking amazing. Still more to do, but I’m so grateful all that I’ve achieved in the last three weeks. G.
What about you? Is change something you are wherry of?

I’m a creature of habit married to a man of adventure – it’s not a great combination and constantly tweaks my anxiety – if everyone could just agree to where they’ll be a month in advance, and stick to that plan forever after, that would be great thank you very much…!! Good luck moving forward – keep hugging trees – it really does help! 🙂
A man of adventure. Yikes!
…yeah… it’s a bit exhausting… especially since I’m more of a sit at home kinda gal… but he has to have a knee operation on Friday, so he’ll be ‘a man of limited action’ for 4 weeks, poor dude!
Tree love is very real.
Indeed!💚
I’d never thought of addictive behavior increasing during good times. I’m definitely a creature of habit and when things are going well, I do sail right into my usual habits, which might be addictions. That little voice that says, I have to stop doing that, might be a clue. Think happy thoughts!
It’s something they tell you at AA and NA. Which is so helpful. G
